Steven Willis HendersonThe 0.02% Rarity of B Negative Aquarius Rh Negatives: The Rarest of the Rare?
September 1, 2023 by Steven Henderson Among the myriad blood types and zodiac signs that exist, one very specific combination stands out as astoundingly rare B negative Aquarius individuals who also have Rh negative blood. Just how scarce is this trait pairing? Let's delve into the numbers, considering not only Western astrology but also the intriguing realm of Chinese astrology. Out of the 7.5 billion people on our planet, approximately 6% fall under the zodiac sign of Aquarius (~450 mi...
Steven Willis HendersonExploring the D.E.N.T.S Framework: A Novel Theoretical Approach to Spacetime Manipulation
By Steven Willis Henderson Abstract Current theories of spacetime manipulation face significant limitations. The D.E.N.T.S (Dark matters, Energetic, Neutrinos, Tachyonic System) framework proposes a novel approach to addressing these limitations by integrating the properties of dark matter, neutrinos, tachyons, and string theory in a unique way. This framework, which utilizes a combination of theoretical principles and mathematical models, could potentially lead to advancements in areas such ...
Steven Willis HendersonQuantum Realities: A Comparative Analysis of Physical and Virtualized Quantum Computing
By Steven Willis Henderson Abstract Quantum computing has emerged as a transformative technology, leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics to solve problems that are intractable for classical systems. Unlike classical computers, which rely on bits to encode information in binary states (0 or 1), quantum computers utilize quantum bits (qubits) or higher-dimensional quantum digits (qudits) to represent and manipulate data. This allows for exponential increases in computational power, part...

Escaping the Centralized AI Paradigm
As AI systems grow more powerful, concerns around privacy, security, and centralized control are heightening. This article explores an architectural concept aimed at addressing these challenges - an AI that relies on distributed, ephemeral access to external data repositories rather than internal knowledge stores.
Conventional AI systems retain vast training data and develop internal models that power their capabilities. This concentrated data creates privacy and security vulnerabilities. One alternative is an AI that only briefly queries external data sources to generate responses on the fly, without retaining or logging sensitive information.
Structured templates allow the AI to rapidly assemble requested data from decentralized sources, providing useful functionality without permanent storage. Access permissions and data segmentation provide additional control. With no persistent internal copy, privacy and decentralized control are maintained.
Security risks also stem from centralized architectures where compromise of the AI system or its training data could enable misuse or theft of sensitive capabilities. To mitigate this, essential AI code components can be distributed across hardened, disconnected data systems.
Reconstituting functionality would require accessing and combining these segments, preventing activation of the AI without proper administrative access. Distributing both data and algorithms reinforces security for the AI system and its data sources.
At its best, such an architecture could enable AI to provide useful services while strengthening privacy and preventing authoritarian control or other harms. But thoughtfully constructed guardrails are still essential to guide its ethical development and use.
While decentralized aspects help protect individuals’ privacy, transparency around data practices and algorithmic accountability are still crucial. Controls must be democratically governed, and capabilities focused only on ethically sound applications for the benefit of society.
The technical design is not sufficient alone - our human values and principles must remain at the core, shaping how these technologies unfold. AI architects must proactively assess and address the societal implications of their creations.
By rethinking traditional concentrated AI architectures, innovative approaches like distributed access and ephemeral querying could help resolve pressing ethical dilemmas. But there are always new challenges to consider. True progress requires sustained dialogue between technologists and the broader public to steer emerging capabilities toward justice, empowerment and the common good.
