Tribute to all Innovation that Created GenAI

In the process of creating the special acknowledgement for all the innovation throughout history that resulted in AI, GenAI more specifically... I was temped to let my fav GenAIs work on the case. WoW! 

They were so good that I included two versions in my latest book on Rapid Strategic Planning with Regenerative AI. The one that didn't work, because it skipped over the 1 paragraph in the instructions was the one from MS Copilot. Try it, let's see what you get.

Here's the Copilot version (2022, July):

Q: Write a 1 para tribute to all the innovators throughout history and a special recognition to the billions of people who made the knowledge, the learning and the programming possible to create GenAI.

I co-author Chapter 2 with my very first Doctoral mentee, and the Chief Refractive Thinker, Dr. Cheryl Lentz: Synergy of Human +Artificial Intelligence: Delphi and the genius of crowds. Congrats on your successes (& failures) Dr. Cheryl!

Dr Cheryl and I promoted the concept of “Regenerative Dynamic AI” where we provide prompts for readers to regenerate key components of our book with the best available GenAI at that future time. AI is changing at light speed, so readers can expect to have far better results than we did when they regeneration in a month or a year. Additionally, we wanted to instruct GenAI engines to provide links to dynamic sources, like statistical databases and Wikipedia where information is continually updated. And, of course, how do humans make the best use of artificial intelligence and real-time research using Delphi. Many results from the chapter with four GenAI engines has been spun off to DelphiPlan.com (aka ScenarioPlans.com). Issues of intellectual property, copyright, teacher-student-plagiarism are all addressed in the Synergy of Human + Artificial Intelligence.

* I also have another book out today! *

Rapid Planning with Regenerative AI. This Regenerative Dynamic AI approach to research and planning became the generative idea behind two AI-assisted workbooks related to Rapid Planning in my Perpetual Innovation™ series. One day in May I created most of the zero (0^th) edition, Perpetual Innovation™: Rapid Strategic Planning and Regenerative AI. With formatting and updates, the 1^st edition is now updated in paperback and released in eBook. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D85GMW7F  ($2.99)

With GenAI it is now possible to do Rapid Strategic Planning in a fraction of the time compared to olde workshop methods. Instead of 3 or 4 planning sessions, I believe it is now possible to condense and compress the planning process into 1 rather-intense session. But, it does require changing the way we work, the way we think, and the way we plan. The Workshop-Workbook is a follow-on companion to the Rapid Strategic Planning and Regenerative AI workbook focusing on the strategic planning workshop for an organization. The main goal for this planning effort is to complete a SWOT analysis including key potential strategies/initiatives. The workshop workbook provides examples for several types of local organizations: a local construction-related business, a charity, a chamber of commerce, a regional Economic Development Commission, and a local chapter of a service organization.  Expect the Workshop-Workbook to be release in a few days in paperback and Kindle ebook.

These Regenerative AI books will be a great addition to the Perpetual Innovation™ line of books starting with intellectual property and now moving into Nonprofit: Nonprofit Planning & Impactful Donor giving (2022); and Club Management (2023).

Future of IP + AI? Regenerative AI

These are the GenAI prompts used to gather information about intellectual property (IP) and the world of artificial intelligence (AI), i.e., IP+AI.  This is part of our Regenerative AI project; recreate as needed, when needed, with the GenAI engines available to you at that time. Select results from various Generative AI engines (ChatGPT 4.0, Gemini, Claude, Copilot).  Look at writing and analysis of Human + Artificial Intelligence by Hall and (Hall & Lentz, 2024) over at ScenarioPlans.com (alias to DelphiPlan.com).

The World is Halving!

 The world is halving,
the World is HALVING.
...
Q: Bitcoin is due to "half". Explain what half means and how that might impact the price of bitcoin before and after? and ... Q: Which bitcoin miners will be most impacted by the halving event this week? (See Answer below.) 

ChatGPT or MS Copilot or Gemini .... nice answers... (See below)

Summary of answer: Since inception in 2009, bitcoin has been designed to pay-out half the number of coins per block awarded to "miners". It started at 50 coins per block. About every 4 years (210,000 blocks) the number of coins payout has halved. It is now down to 6.25 coins per block. Some time over the next day or so, the amount payout will halve again to 3.125.

Disruptive Innovation: Why AI Will Spark Exponential Economic Growth

 The innovation and investment guru Cathy Wood gave a TED talk in December 2023 about 5 pivotal innovation platforms that will (continue) to change the world as we know it. Her group expects to see exponential sustained growth that is fueled by the productivity gains in these areas, especially where they converge. The 5 platforms (AI, Robotics, Energy Storage, DNA sequencing, and blockchain) are described below, with AI in the center. One example she uses is the rapid move to self-driving taxis.

What is Pi Day, and what are the useful uses of Pi?

ChatGPT 4.0 (3/14/2024)

Pi Day is celebrated on March 14th (3/14 in the month/day format) because the date represents the first three digits of π (pi), which is approximately 3.14. Pi is a mathematical constant that represents the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. This ratio is constant for all circles of any size, making pi a fundamental aspect of many mathematical, engineering, and scientific calculations. Here are some of the useful uses of pi:

1. **Circumference and Area Calculations**: Pi is used to calculate the circumference (C = 2πr) and the area (A = πr^2) of a circle, where r is the radius of the circle. These formulas are foundational in geometry and are widely used in various fields such as construction, manufacturing, and design.
