Everyone's Betting on AI...And They Just Might Be Wrong -"Computing Power Drives the Future: AI and the Next Big Thing" by William MeiselComputing power has long grown at an exponential rate. That rapid advance has allowed digital systems to do more each year. Computer power crossed a major threshold when it made "Artificial Intelligence" driven by deep neural networks economically feasible. And huge investments are being made in ever-larger computer centers to support AI. This book challenges the assumptions behind those huge investments and explains why the generative AI that is making all the news is over-rated.Computer power crossing a threshold allowed deep neural nets to be practical, and they have indeed been used effectively for many limited applications. Meisel discusses the "next big thing" that exponential growth in computer processing speed will allow. The book provides a realistic description of what we can expect as computer power grows ever more quickly than most past innovations, with major impacts on society, the economy, and competition between countries.William Meisel, PhD, was an early researcher in AI, with an PhD dissertation on neural networks and an early book on computer pattern recognition, the latter while a professor of EE and CS at USC. He then applied those techniques as the head of the computer science division of a defense company for a decade. He then founded and ran Speech Systems Incorporated, developing speech recognition technology and applications, for a decade. He then published Speech Recognition Update, a monthly paid-subscription, no-ads newsletter on commercial developments in speech recognition and natural language processing for more than twenty years and held conferences on the subject. He was also Executive Director of the non-profit Applied Voice Input Output Society during this period.He is currently an independent consultant and author. His recent books include Computing Power Drives the Future, The Lost History of Talking to Computers and Evolution Continues: A Human-Computer Partnership.AMAZONhttps://williammeisel.com/https://www.kingpagespress.com/http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/121825kpp2.mp3

Are We Entering a 1,000-Year Age of Peace - "Where's Your Light?: Ascension Edition" by Douglas F. GradyApostle John's prophecy of the 1,000-year reign of peace, penned over two thousand years ago in his Book of Revelation, is a beacon of hope. As we stand on the threshold of the millennium, John's words guide us towards a future where the world transitions to a state of Heaven on Earth, the 'world to come,' a term in the Bible that refers to a future era of peace and harmony. This prophecy fills us with optimism and a sense of purpose as we ponder its implications on our current state of affairs.As we step into the new millennium, the Apostle John's prophecy sheds light on the transformative changes awaiting our world. It not only answers the question of how the world can evolve into a more loving environment for the future but also ignites a sense of hope and anticipation about the speed of this transformation. Moreover, John's revelation about the end of control by the Dark Forces promises an end to the bloody conflicts and devastating turmoil that have marred human history, filling us with excitement and hope for the future.Mr. Grady's spiritual journey is a unique and compelling one. In the fall of 1999, he underwent a profound spiritual baptism from God, a transformative event that led him to practice Self-Realization Fellowship. His journey began with meditation, which prepared him to receive the spark of love that engulfed his entire soul. His path led him to meet Apostle John through Marilyn Redmond for the Door to Glory book in 2011, and he has since published the book Where Is Your Light in 2023. We eagerly await his subsequent publication, The Incredible Journey of Our Savior.AMAZONhttps://douglasgradybooks.comhttps://bookstolifemarketing.com/http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/121825app.mp3
You've Never Heard Mary's Story Told Like This - "Mary: Intimate Witness to God's Love Incarnate by Dr. Louis McCall"Mary is about the mother of Jesus and the arc of her development from a peasant teenager to an icon in the church, to a bold witness of the Gospel who journeys from Jerusalem to Samaria, to the mostly Gentile church in Antioch of Syria, and finally to Ephesus, a major metropolitan city of Asia Minor. This book tells the story of Mary in the style as a memoir while still being faithful to the canon of scripture in the hopes that women who seek to have their voices heard in a male-dominated society will find inspiration and strength. Also, all readers will gain a new appreciation for the challenges and fears of Mary, her own need for a savior, and her development into an eyewitness to God's love through his Son, Jesus Christ. Mary shows how one woman can start out simply and yet become a giant of faith and a model of womanhood.Louis McCall was born in Chicago, Illinois and attended Northwestern University where he received a Ph.D. Later, he also attended the National War College of the National Defense University. Louis was an Assistant Professor at the Ohio State University prior to a 36-year career in the U.S. Department of State, first as a Foreign Service officer and then as a foreign affairs Civil Service employee where he served as Consul General in Florence, Italy, Chargé d'Affaires in Brunei, U.S. Representative to the Republic of San Marino, and Assistant Inspector General. He lived in or worked in, at least temporarily, 60 countries on six continents. Whether in academia or as a diplomat, Louis found opportunities to live his faith, including part-time ministry of the good news in word and in song, including co-laboring with missionaries, national church leaders, and the underground church. When ministering early in his diplomatic career from the pulpit of a great church in Calcutta, India, Louis said to those in attendance that he had determined not to be ashamed of the gospel of Christ. That has been a commitment he has endeavored to keep over the years. In his final two years at the Department of State he organized and led the National Day of Prayer observances in the Department.Now, in his new career as an author, he has the pleasure of greater freedom in sharing what God has placed in his heart. Louis is active simultaneously in two churches in Washington, D.C. One is a multi-site non-denominational church, where he is an elder, and the other a Catholic church where he is a regular cantor, though not a Catholic himself. He has managed this with the blessing and full knowledge of pastors and priests. This has been an outgrowth of his early association with a mixed protestant-Catholic charismatic house-based worship group, his association with the late Mother Teresa of Calcutta, his Catholic charismatic wife, and guest ministry in churches and bible schools of various denominations while living in or working in other countries.AMAZONhttps://louismccallinternational.comhttps://www.kingpagespress.comhttp://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/121825kpplm.mp3

Death by Chaos by Renaii WestTasha, Elizabeth, Dawn, and Miranda were the undisputed goddesses of their Southern California liberal arts college. With distinct talents, beauty, and accomplishments, each goddess appeared predestined to be forever traveling on that path called the Charmed Life. But, in a tragic twist of fate, just before graduation, a student is found murdered on campus. Suspicion falls in their midst, and one of them goes missing. Destinies are changed forever.The case goes cold, and for the next two decades, secrets are kept and suspicions linger. And one of the four continues to be haunted by the chaos of that night and what followed. With an upcoming reunion, and an arrival of a stranger on a motorcycle bringing even more turmoil to her life, she believes the time is right to finally revisit the past, uncover the secrets, expose the truth and while she is at it, rekindle the lost passions of her roommates. To do this without and drawing the attention of those who wish the case to remain unsolved will require good acting, deception, and maybe a little divine intervention.Renaii West has been writing and performing since childhood. She became a dramatic arts instructor in a performing arts program after earning her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, where she wrote and directed original productions. Today, she channels her creativity into crafting fun, often quirky characters who find themselves embroiled in unpredictable mysteries that demand quick thinking and courage.

Ancient Destiny III - Generations by Albert Lynn ClarkThis book might be about women's lib or is it polygamy? Women need to play the main role in space travel and especially colonization. This SF series presents many issues to ponder and suggests some inventions needed for space travel. The series starts in today's world and through forced invention gets mankind into space colonization to save the human race. Most of the science presented is in some stage of development now. If you want to travel for months in space and then create a colony on an empty planet, you need more women than men. On a spaceship, or in a scientific laboratory, women can do what a man would do. The man may be better at leadership because women tend not to want to lead, but in reading this series you might agree with the author about the makeup of the crew. There are a number of morale issues. This is the 3rd book in the Ancient Destiny saga. Book 1 describes the threat to Earth and the SHIP that has taught the great scientists of Earth. Book 2 is the escape from Earth with many scientific concepts for space travel, explorations for new earthlike planets, the escape and journey to new planets, establishing colonies on new planets. Book 3 adds new crewmembers as replacements, new science concepts, searches for knowledge on other planets, visiting Earth years after its destruction, encountering an enemy, finding who built SHIP and the so called, Library of Atlantis, more Martian history and first contact with the Galactic Alliance.AMAZONhttps://albertlynnclark.com/https://www.ecpublishingllc.com/http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/12425alcec.mp3

Putting by the Numbers: A Quantitative Method of Lag Putting by Bob Labbe with Mike ShawAre you looking to better your golf score? You can achieve this goal by improving your lag putting. In Putting by the Numbers, author Bob Labbe provides a quantitative method of lag putting applicable for all golfers whether recreational, amateur, or professional. It can help you reduce your score by four to five strokes per round regardless of skill level.This method is based upon science, including physics and engineering mechanics, but is simplified and reduced to an arithmetic method anyone can use if able to do simple arithmetic in their head quickly. Putting by the Numbers provides a video trailer and an on-course and in-home practice video that fully demonstrates the method that can be used to play on any golf course throughout the world.No new equipment or change in your putting stroke is needed, just the willingness to practice in and around the putting green to develop your unique power factor to overcome the frictional surfaces encountered during play.Bob Labbe earned his bachelor's degree in engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology in 1968 and began studying for his master's in engineering and business; in 1972, he embarked on his career in air pollution control, engineering, manufacturing, and installing industrial systems throughout North America and in other parts of the world. He began his career with American Air Filter in 1968 and in 1972 became a founding member of the first of three air pollution control companies he led over forty-nine years.Conducting business often meant playing golf with salesmen, and Bob worked with many over the years who were also passionate about the game. For twenty-five years, he attended an annual sales meeting that featured a one-day golf tournament. While Bob was rarely competitive with these accomplished golfers, he learned to love the game and knew that one day, he would play it on a regular and dedicated basis, which he began doing in 1996.As he played more, he realized that becoming a good golfer depended on putting. Putting by the Numbers is the result: the method of lag putting he developed to be able score at a level that was both satisfying and competitive, a method that has allowed him to shave 8 to 12 strokes per round from his early playing days.https: //www.puttingbythenumbers.comhttps://www.puttingbythenumbers.com/https://www.amazon.comhttps://bookhavenliterary.com/http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/21325blbhl.mp3

ANCIENT DESTINY by Albert Lynn ClarkThis is a science fiction novel set in todays time. The novel promotes women as intelligent and capable of almost anything that a man can do and sometimes better. Most of the women in this novel are elevated into a team of women saving the world in the next novel, "Ancient Destiny - Escape from Earth". Craig is the captain, but more of a figurehead while the women are the experts on his team. It is something that could be happening now, but it could be the end of Earth in a few years or months. We know that Earth has been impacted by intersteller objects that either caused major changes to life on Earth and we know that one killed off the dinosaurs. We have had a number of near misses by smaller asteroids that the astronomers did not see coming. What if they spotted a very large one on course to impact Earth and too large to stop. Right now comet(?) 31/ATLAS will have come through this solar system passing by Mars, then the Sun, and is predicted to come closest to Earth on December 19, 2025. It is estimated to be 26 miles wide and traveling 300,000 miles an hour. It will miss Earth unless the Sun's gravity changes its but it would do more damage then the one that killed the dinosaurs if it hit head on.The people of Atlantis came here from Mars to avoid being killed when the intersteller object hit Mars destroying most of its atmosphere. Some of them escaped Atlantis by leaving our solar system. The ones staying behind lost their technology when Atlantis was destroyed. A spaceship was left in orbit to educate the survivors in science and math to once again create the technology to escape Earth. Aristotle, Tesla, and others were trained by this ship, but the existing technology did not allow them to do what they knew was possible. Now the object that destroyed Mars is coming to Earth in only a few years and the ship has chosen a college student as the next Aristotle to advance science many years in a very short time in order for some small set of humans to escape into space.Albert Lynn Clark is a widowed, retired US Air Force lieutenant colonel and civil servant.
