Cute images of baby dinosaurs dressed up or carrying objects characteristic of certain professions have gone viral. It is about the “dino-professions”, a trend that flooded the networks.
From the account “The AI Dreams” on Instagram and Twitter, a tool that artificial intelligence (AI) called “Midjourney” was disseminated. Only Enough with write a couple of words to generate the image you wantin this case illustrations of these creatures dressed in typical clothing from different countries, professions, or whatever the imagination of the user proposes.
Artificial intelligence is part of a large part of human activities. Have you ever imagined traveling around the world or going back thousands of years to the age of the dinosaurs, seeing Neanderthal primates, Spartans, Romans, gunmen in the far west, or even characters from each department of Bolivia? Artificial Intelligence makes it possible and allows you to see alternate realities or recreate historical moments.
Nataly Miranda, a computer specialist and director of the Systems Engineering course at the Franz Tamayo University, Unifranz, affirms that “today, we can create virtual assistants, image analysis software, search engines, voice and face recognition systems ; as well as drones and autonomous vehicles among others”.
Social networks are the ones that give free rein to the imagination thanks to artificial intelligence, with the creation of characters and fictitious existences. The latest images that have gone viral were possible because their creator resorted to this technology that provides tools to capture ideas of images and objects.
In the case of “dino-professions”, the platform uses simple steps to achieve the goal with the use of artificial intelligence. Enter Midjourney, select the Join the Beta option, enter the data required by the app and search for the word “nevwbies 125” to write the characteristics you want your dinosaur to have. The use of the application has a cost of 8 dollars, approximately, however has a free version the one that was popularized in networks.
Artificial Intelligence is part of computer science, a combination of algorithms that are then used to create devices that imitate the human intellect. “It works by making it possible for machines to learn from experience, adjust to new input, and perform tasks like humans. artificial intelligence automate learning and repetitive discoveries through data”, says Miranda.
The term Artificial Intelligence was first heard of in 1956 by computer scientist John McCarthy. A year later, an artificial neural network appeared, made by Frank Rosenblat. One of the first activities human what did you do this type of technology It was practicing chess. Deep Blue, a supercomputer, beat Garry Kimovich Kasparov, the world champion, on that occasion. From that moment on it evolved.
Futurist Jerome Glenn, CEO of the Millennium Project –independent non-profit think tank or think tank made up of futurists, academics, policy makers and business planners– ensures that artificial intelligence will determine the course of society.
Glenn asks society to look at “the government impact caused by the development of artificial intelligence and how can we take advantage of it so that, through it, innovative participation can be better positioned in terms of building the future”.
Artificial Intelligence in Bolivia
Miranda assures that the country “is on the right path” in the application of this technology. Several institutions, in different fields, are taking advantage of it.
An example is observed in the medical area of some hospitals in the country. North Hospital, located in the city of El Alto, uses computer systems and Artificial Intelligence to diagnose the coronavirus, with tomographic and radiographic studies. Thus, he managed to reduce the diagnosis time to only 10 minutes.
The use of Artificial Intelligence is also found in the daily life of the Bolivian population, with the use of Google Maps, the chatbot They send automated messages. This last tool is used by businesses and companies. The suggestions they receive on Facebook, Youtube or Spotify are also made by this technology.
In the area of education, AI has also been implemented for automated student assessments, online courses and remote controls safely and efficiently.
