Decoding Basic Morphologic Semantics for everything AI.
1. AI is the ability of a computer program or a Machine to THINK and LEARN. – (Data Basecamp. 7th May 2022).
2. AI is a field of study which tries to make computers SMART. They work on their own without being encoded with commands. (Andreas Kaplan – Artificial intelligence , business and civilisation : Our fate made in machines , Routledge 2022)
3. In General Use AI means a program which “MIMICS HUMAN COGNITION ” (DATA BASECAMP 7 MAY 2022).
Note – What do Humans know about Human Cognition – Read This : “Cognitive Science is a fascinating field in itself , worthy of SEVERAL TEXTBOOKS and atleast one ENCYCLOPEDIA” . (WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU READ AND COMPLETED A FULL VERSION ENCYCLOPEDIA COVER TO COVER – Think again about how much you know about your own Cognition).
4. JOHN McCarthy came up with the name “Artificial intelligence ” in 1955.
5. Andreas Kaplan and Michael Haenlein define AI as a systems ability to correctly interpret external data , to LEARN from such data , and to USE those LEARNINGS to achieve specific goals and tasks through flexible ADAPTATION.
6. The exciting new effort to make computers THINK…machines with MINDS, in the FULL and LITERAL sense (Haugeland 1985)
7. The AUTOMATION of activities that we associate with HUMAN THINKING , activities such as DECISION MAKING , PROBLEM SOLVING and LEARNING (Bellman 1978).

What about BLACK BOX ?
A Black Box in Science and Engineering is a box whose inside working is not known. (Now refer to AI definition no. 16 above) . Black Box is a device , system or object with input and output. There is no knowledge of it’s internal workings . The way it works is opaque. Almost anything might me referred to as a Black Box : a transistor , an ALGORITHM or the HUMAN BRAIN.
(Ashby W Ross 1956 – An Introduction to Cybernetics. London : Chapman and Hall , Chapter 6 The Black Box , p86 – 117).
Using ML has some risks . Some Algorithms create a final model which is a black box . Some Models have been critized for biases in hiring , criminal justice and recognising faces .

The gestation of artificial intelligence (1943–1955)
The first work that is now generally recognized as AI was done by Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts (1943). They drew on three sources: knowledge of the basic physiology and function of neurons in the brain; a formal analysis of propositional logic due to Russell and Whitehead; and Turing’s theory of computation. They proposed a model of artificial neurons in which each neuron is characterized as being “on” or “off,” with a switch to “on” occurring in response to stimulation by a sufficient number of neighboring neurons. The state of a neuron was conceived of as “factually equivalent to a proposition which proposed its adequate
stimulus.” They showed, for example, that any computable function could be computed by some network of connected neurons, and that all the logical connectives (and, or, not, etc.)
could be implemented by simple net structures. McCulloch and Pitts also suggested that suitably defined networks could learn. Donald Hebb (1949) demonstrated a simple updating rule for modifying the connection strengths between neurons. His rule, now called Hebbian.

We have been training AI applying Machine Learning to constitutionally imitate human Cognition which we ourselves do not understand mathematically and verifiably. Now AI engineers can sympathize a little when the builder bot , student bot , teacher bot and human overseer look at each other in confounding amazement. Only trying to adjust the dials for probable outcome close to their liking…Now imagine millions of those dials. You see one Neuron..Now scale to Millions of Neurons. Your encephalon alone has 86 billion neurons. Feeding the Artificial Neural networks by millions of examples as the relationship is directly proportional. Larger the Artificial Neural Network greater the number of examples needed for functioning operational performance improvement . Deep learning happens when you scale up from millions to billions of living and nonliving world examples through supervised , unsupervised and reinforced strategies.
Now let’s ask ourselves how many examples do we personally remember or can possibly recollect and recapitulate to solve complex computational problems even applying all forms of analogies available at our discretion. I do not think we can humanely cross the cardinal number 100 for just 1 problem. Now one should forget about comprehending and just question thyself – Does one even stargaze at AI with quiescence ? Now does human prudence command to gainsay AI of course with proper guardrails in place ? From Computer Science to mathematics , linguistics, psychology , neuroscience , philosophy it’s everywhere. Can it be a National Project ? Last time we checked, ” The UN General Assembly on 21st March 2024 passed a landmark resolution towards the promotion of safe , secure , trustworthy AI system which has the potential to boost sustainable development worldwide . The text was introduced by USA and cosponsored by 120 member states”. (Exact Quote from the UN Website).
This watershed event has invariably laid down the fundamental foundation towards the phylogenesis of Super Sentience and Singularity of Artificial General Intelligence.
Since AI has been successfully categorized into three different types of systems – Analytical, human inspired and humanized. Analytically it can learn from cognitive intelligence and in the process render/yield epistemologically representation of the Universe around us applying the knowledge and learning from preceding experiences on the fourth dimension . It has inherited from the Elysian Human World concepts of emotions and social intelligence only to be self conscious and self aware . This will cast an impeccable and immaculate effect on it’s decision making abilities.
Adversarial AI – In 1997 Gary Kasparov lost to Deep Blue in chess. In the progressive Fourth Dimension IBM WATSON beat the famous Jeopardy players Brad Rutter and Ken Jennings . Now fast forward to 2016 and Alphabets AlphaGo defeated go player Lee Sedol 4 out of 5 times.
While we envisage the Modern “New World” with it’s riveting multi lateral transnational mega organisations here is a humble quick suggestion that can be experimented with varying degrees of real time Optimisation.
Recognising that most organisations have access to some of the World’s finest Super and Quantum Computers with blazing fast gigabit strong optical fibre broadband and satellite internet network access . But for a little positive change an AI experiment can be concluded at a more nano scaled down level . A custom built / configured gaming grade laptop with the following specifications :
1) The fastest possible system on a chip (SOC)
2) Non Volatile Memory Access Solid State Drive ( NVMe SSD as of 2022 , 8 TeraByte(TB) was the highest possible commercially available)
3) The fastest and most advanced dynamic random access memory (DRAM) and Static Random Access Memory (SRAM)..maybe DDR5 or DDR6
4. And if that amount of internal Storage is insufficient for handling large datasets….may be an additional external portable high capacity solid state drive with fastest possible data read and write speeds can be attached via high speed USB Type – C port . Just to accommodate / Store all the vital data that you will need for your experimentations.
5)The Desktop Operating system can be of your personal choice – Windows , Ubuntu Linux (Debian) or MacOS. Not sure whether ChromeOS can handle offline opensource AI Large Language/Learning Models .
6) And Finally an accelerated embedded Graphics Processing Unit discrete/dedicated solution – AMD or Nvidia depends on your personal choice or the choice of your Chief Technology Officer (CTO). Nvidia Tesla or Nvidia Titan Series or AMD Radeon Instinct series. Benchmarks for 2024 can be referred for selecting the perfect laptop specifications.
We have chosen offline AI LLMs just to avoid any real time human interference/overseeing , tweaking and to address the privacy concerns / protocols .
Some open AI LLMs available for commercial use that are licensed under Apache 2.0, MIT, or OpenRAIL-M. Some of these LLMs are based on existing pre-trained models such as T5, GPT-Neo, or Cerebras-GPT, while others are trained from scratch on large-scale datasets such as BLOOM, MPT, or Falcon. Some of these LLMs are also fine-tuned for specific tasks such as instruction-tuning, chatbot, or code generation.
Here are some examples of OpenSource AI LLMs for offline use that you can try:
Hermes GPTQ: A 7B-parameter model that is instruction-tuned on Alpaca-GPT4 and can generate text in multiple languages and domains.
Falcon Instruct GPTQ: A 40B-parameter model that is trained on the RefinedWeb dataset and can perform various natural language tasks such as summarization, translation, and question answering.
GPT4ALL-J Groovy: A 6B-parameter model that is based on GPT-J and can generate code in various programming languages such as Python, Java, and C++1.
WizardCoder-15B-GPTQ: A 15B-parameter model that is based on RWKV and can generate code in multiple languages and frameworks such as React, Django, and Flask.
Wizard Vicuna Uncensored-GPTQ: A 7B-parameter model that is based on Vicuna and can generate text in a casual and humorous tone.
Orca Mini-GPTQ: A 1.5B-parameter model that is based on DLite and can generate text in a concise and informative manner.
LLaMA 2 Chat GPTQ: A 7B-parameter model that is based on LLaMA 2 and can generate engaging and coherent conversations.
More can be found on the web. You can also check out the GitHub repository Open LLMs or the List of Open Sourced Fine-Tuned Large Language Models (LLM) for more information and resources.
And towards the end of the Analysis We return back to the Plebeian World of those who toggle the button off on their websites cum blogs in order to prevent AI from getting inspired by their Creativity and Brilliance.
Here’s a quick fix – Some AI LLMs ingest data from Free and OpenSource Resources
There are several AI LLMs that primarily ingest data from Wikipedia, wikis, and internet archives, focusing on open-source and copyright-free information. Here are some examples:
1. WikiText: This model, developed by Facebook AI, was trained on a massive dataset of text and code scraped from publicly available sources like Wikipedia, BooksCorpus, and GitHub. It is known for its factual accuracy and ability to generate different creative text formats.
2. LaMDA: Google’s LaMDA (Language Model for Dialogue Applications) is another LLM trained on a dataset of text and code from publicly available sources like Wikipedia, Reddit, and BooksCorpus. It focuses on conversational AI and generating human-quality dialogue.
3. Jurassic-1 Jumbo: This model, developed by AI21 Labs, is specifically trained on a massive dataset of text and code from publicly available sources like Wikipedia, Common Crawl, and BooksCorpus. It is known for its large vocabulary and ability to perform various tasks, including question answering, code generation, and text summarization.
4. T5: Google’s T5 (Text-to-Text Transfer Transformer) is a versatile LLM trained on a massive dataset of text and code from publicly available sources like Wikipedia, BooksCorpus, and Common Crawl. It can be fine-tuned for various tasks, including question answering, translation, and text summarization.
5. BLOOM: The BigScience Large Open-source Open Multilingual Language Model (BLOOM) is a community-developed LLM trained on a massive dataset of text and code from publicly available sources like Wikipedia, Common Crawl, and BooksCorpus. It focuses on open-source development and multilingual capabilities.
There is lot of learning that also happens through “Project Gutenberg” which is an online project that provides Digital archives of copyright free e-books in the public domain. Started in 1971 by Michael S. Hart . The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ,Inc was created. A nonprofit organisation with it’s main office in Mississippi, USA.
For all reasons and purposes AGI is the unadulterated , elementary and original Goal of many AI research and futurism/futurology scheme of new things. Its organised , drawing inferences and characterisation from many fields of study , wholistically exploring and analysing social , technological and environmental vogues. Predictive deductive prognostication synchronal alternatives etc. Its Strong Full AI and General Self Aware Intelligent Action. Pedantically Programmatic Algorithmic Sentience.
AI is now enabling humans to create AI powered tools to achieve predefined smart automation and objectives. All around us possibly in the chiliad. So all AGI will have to do is tweak the powerful resource tools in the Igloo of ambivalency towards geographic and demographic concurrency without itself having to create or generate what it actually wants not to forget it being self conscious . And that too macroscopically , multinationally and preferably super psychokinetically..under contextual and circumstantial settings . Putting into human perspective and extrapolating – Lets say the Collective Unified Power of the most prominent 1000 Top Social Media Influencers from behind the curtain . Never Onymous and from a wraithlike cylindrical upright vertical structure . As we speak there are more than 72 active AGI R&D projects running in more than 37 Countries.

Centralized and Decentralised Approaches to running Multimodal LLMs.(About time we take this factor into account) – on gaming grade Graphics and Neural Processing Units.
Centralized approach:
1. Offline:
– The entire model would need to be loaded into the laptop’s memory and run locally.
– Pros: Privacy, no latency from network communications, can work without internet.
– Cons: Limited by the laptop’s resources (RAM, GPU, CPU), which may not be sufficient for larger models.
2. Online:
– The model runs on a remote server, with the laptop acting as a client.
– Pros: Can access more powerful hardware, enabling larger and more capable models.
– Cons: Requires constant internet connection, potential privacy concerns, latency issues.
Decentralized approach:
1. Offline:
– The model could be split into smaller components distributed across the laptop’s resources.
– Pros: More efficient use of available resources, potentially allowing larger models to run.
– Cons: Complexity in managing and coordinating between components, possible performance overhead.
2. Online:
– Parts of the model could run locally, while other parts run on remote servers or other devices.
– Pros: Balances local processing with access to more powerful remote resources, potential for edge computing benefits.
– Cons: Requires careful orchestration, may have inconsistent performance based on network conditions.
Considering the constraints of a gaming laptop:
1. Memory: Gaming laptops often have 16-32GB of RAM. Large LLMs can require more, so a decentralized approach might be beneficial.
2. GPU: While gaming GPUs are powerful, they may not have the specific optimizations or memory capacity of data center GPUs. A decentralized approach could potentially make better use of the available GPU resources.
3. CPU: Modern gaming laptops have powerful CPUs, which could be leveraged effectively in a decentralized setup to handle certain model components or preprocessing tasks.
4. Storage: Fast SSDs in gaming laptops could be used effectively for model parameter storage and quick loading in a decentralized setup.
5. Thermal constraints: Gaming laptops have better cooling than standard laptops, but prolonged AI computations could still cause thermal throttling. A decentralized approach might distribute the heat generation more evenly.
Given these factors, a decentralized approach might be more suitable for running a multimodal LLM on a gaming laptop:
– Offline: It could allow for more efficient use of resources, potentially enabling larger models to run than would be possible with a centralized approach.
– Online: It could balance local processing (for privacy-sensitive or latency-critical tasks) with cloud resources for more intensive computations.

Distributed Artificial Intelligence (DAI) .
Distributed AI refers to AI systems that are spread across multiple nodes or devices, rather than being concentrated in a single, centralized location. This approach has several potential advantages and challenges:
Advantages of Distributed AI:
1. Scalability: Can handle larger datasets and more complex problems by distributing the workload.
2. Robustness: Less vulnerable to single points of failure.
3. Privacy: Can potentially keep data localized, reducing privacy concerns.
4. Reduced latency: Processing can occur closer to the data source.
5. Resource efficiency: Can utilize idle computational resources across a network.
Challenges of Distributed AI:
1. Coordination: Ensuring different parts of the system work together effectively.
2. Consistency: Maintaining consistent knowledge and decision-making across nodes.
3. Communication overhead: Increased need for data transfer between nodes.
4. Security: Potentially larger attack surface for malicious actors.
Regarding feasibility and cost-benefit analyses, there have been studies comparing centralized and decentralized AI approaches, though the field is still evolving. Some key points from research include:
1. Efficiency vs. Cost: Centralized systems often have lower upfront costs but may become less efficient as they scale. Distributed systems can be more cost-effective at large scales but may have higher initial implementation costs.
2. Performance: In some scenarios, distributed AI can outperform centralized systems, especially for tasks that can be parallelized effectively.
3. Energy consumption: Distributed systems may be more energy-efficient in certain applications, particularly when leveraging edge computing.
4. Application-specific considerations: The best approach often depends on the specific use case. For example, applications requiring real-time processing of local data may benefit more from distributed AI.
5. Hybrid approaches: Many practical implementations use a combination of centralized and distributed elements to optimize performance and efficiency.
