If SOCRATES, ARISTOTLE'S, PYTHAGORAS among other great Philosophers did not set foundation for WISDOM, would we be the same.

If Milgram Stanley, Philip Zimbardo among other great Psychologists did not expose ABUSE OF POWER BY AN AUTHORITY through their famous psychological experiments, would we be the same.

If the world had no LOGICIANS, wouldn't CONSPIRACY THEORISTS overruled our conciousness by now through MISINFORMATION and cult beliefs.

WE ALL HAVE RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE FOR ALL.

Today is Pi Day. Did you know the symbol for Pi has been in use for over 250 years? Since the exact value of Pi can never be calculated, we can never actually find the accurate area or circumference of a circle, despite Pi’s 62.8 trillion decimal places, which was recently calculated in 2021.

U.S. vs. China Rivalry Boosts Tech—and Tensions

U.S. vs. China Rivalry Boosts Tech—and Tensions It’s well known that the U.S. consumer market fed China’s export engine and led to one of the fastest-growing economies in world history. Less well-known is how a handful of U.S. technology companies transferred the know-how and trained the experts now giving the U.S. a run for its money in AI.

Novel intelligent systems to assist energy transition and improve sustainability can be deployed at different scales, ranging from houses to entire regions. University campuses are an ideal size -- big enough in scale and small enough to be easily managed -- for research, development, testing and training on integrating at all levels. This has led to the emergence of the concept of a “smart campus.” Learn more about how an intelligent campus works on IEEE Xplore: https://bit.ly/3oUgD2S
