Digital Twin Campuses with AI Have Six Great Uses 1. CAMPUS TOURS for prospective students on a browser with an AI tour guide. No VR headset needed. Works on a Chrome or Safari browser. The AI tour guide can answer any question and it stays on topic! Tour: https://lnkd.in/g5bJSvHU 2. TEACHING AND LEARNING. Morehouse College uses their digital twin campus to teach and learn.  See Morehouse digital twin: https://lnkd.in/g32-4Viy 3. AFFORDABLE LABS. Most campuses have great facilities, but no campus has the space for every lab they might want or need. Cadaver lab? No problem. Chemistry lab? Sure. Just place the labs you want within your digital twin campus and let students learn hands-on. Parker University: https://lnkd.in/gBeDXs94 4. PRESERVATION. campuses change over time, but in a 3D spatial world key architecture can be preserved forever so students in the future can experience it as it exists today. This is exactly what Notre Dame De Namur did to preserve their campus after an acquisition by Stanford.  Take a look: https://lnkd.in/gsT_QUE2 5. LECTURES. guest speakers cannot always travel to a location, but in a campus lecture hall, students and speakers can gather no matter where they may be. 6. SIMULATION. Students in the health or social sciences training to be a therapist, doctor, nurse, practitioner or a hundred other professions can get hands-on patient training through the use of AI in a digital clinic or hospital. And because the patients are AI, they can have a full, two-way conversation explaining their symptoms, asking questions about medications or whatever may be most helpful. So, what am I forgetting? Probably a lot. But the bottom line is this: digital twin campuses are the future of learning. Once we build it for you, it's yours forever. Want to learn more?

🌱 Struggling to get LCAs done at scale for your full product portfolio? Meet Root Sustainability , the start-up solving this exact problem. Co-founders Gijs de Mol and Maud Schijen know the frustration. Gijs spent years at Philips, trying to manually set up LCAs for many many products—nearly impossible at scale. Recognisable? 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲: -  Most LCA tools either rely on incomplete, non-activity based data or are expensive for assessing hundreds of products at once. - This often results in reports that look good on paper but don’t drive true change. - Imagine changing to ingredients from a closer supplier… yet you can't measure the impact. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: - Automated LCA's for large product portfolio's. Via easy to use software. - It combines Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol) using primary, activity-based data to ensure accurate insights for impactful decisions. - Gain accurate LCA insights for your entire product portfolio - Identify key impact drivers, stay compliant, and reduce impact And yes, they’re a great team to work with! 😉 Do you know any other great sustainability start ups that deserve the spotlights. please let me know, via the comments? https://lnkd.in/eWFxurAa ----------------------------------------------------------------- Follow Maikel Fontein for (fun) insights, start-ups, trends, and news in Sustainability, compliance and food 🌍

Engineer QUIZ: Do you know the name of this creature (11 letters)? Name of inventor? What is special about leg / motion construction? Read ON: 🔴 https://wolfr.am/BEEST-SH Since 1990, Theo Jansen, a Dutch artist and inventor, has been crafting kinetic sculptures called "strandbeest" (Dutch for "beach animals") that resemble walking creatures. These wind-propelled structures are made of PVC, wood, and fabric airfoils, and can efficiently walk over sand using a system of links that convert axle rotation into leg motion. Over time, Jansen has evolved these creatures using evolutionary computation, allowing them to react to their environment, store air pressure for wind-less propulsion, detect and avoid water, and even anchor themselves during storms. A few principles used: - Evolutionary Design using computers inspired by Darwin ideas - Autonomy is evolving for survival & becoming increasingly autonomous - Complex Mechanisms with Simple Materials - Artistic and Scientific Intersection - Philosophy of Artificial life QUOTING Jansen: "The proportions are based on thirteen numbers. And this particular proportion takes care that the animal stays on the same level while walking [efficiency]. And that's the special thing of Strandbeests, because normal animals always toss up and down as they walk, but the Strandbeests stay on the same level. You could see this proportion of thirteen numbers as the DNA code of the Strandbeests. I published this DNA code on my website. Since then, thousands of students around the world are building Strandbeests. And all these students, they think they're having a good time. They think they're happy. But in fact they're being used for Strandbeest reproduction!" More tech info at the link above - one of my favorite explorations using Wolfram Language. Huge thanks to Sander Huisman who wrote Wolfram code for these cool animations !

AI: Thinking for you is cheap ?? We calculate that by 2027 the AI sector could consume between 85 to 134 terawatt hours each year. That’s about the same as the annual energy demand of the Netherlands. We’re talking about AI electricity consumption potentially being half a percent of global electricity consumption by 2027 A recent report by the International Energy Agency offered similar estimates, suggesting that electricity usage by data centers will increase significantly in the near future thanks to the demands of AI and cryptocurrency. The agency says current data center energy usage stands at around 460 terawatt hours in 2022 and could increase to between 620 and 1,050 TWh in 2026 — equivalent to the energy demands of Sweden or Germany, respectively.

To my fellow developers starting their journey: AI coding tools are incredible! They can boost your productivity and introduce you to new patterns. BUT... Don't let them replace understanding the fundamentals. Think of AI as a teammate, not a crutch. Invest time in learning the 'why' behind the code it generates. The strongest developers build on a foundation of knowledge, not just shortcuts. #freshers #ai #suggestion #coding #tips #juniors #developers
