Decolonial AI Alignment: Openness, Viśe\d{s}a-Dharma, and Including Excluded Knowledges [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Prior work has explicated the coloniality of artificial intelligence (AI) development and deployment through mechanisms such as extractivism, automation, sociological essentialism, surveillance, and containment. However, that work has not engaged much with alignment: teaching behaviors to a large language model (LLM) in line with desired values, and ...

Guided Self Replicating Factory for Colonization of Solar System [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
In this work we present the concept of guided self-replicating factory (GSFR). This factory would be established as a colony on the Moon, Mercury, Mars, or Asteroid Belt. GSFR would grow by using in situ materials in order to manufacture machines. The time it takes for GSFR to double it's mass and electric power output is called a doubling period ...

Toward a realistic model of multilayered bacterial colonies [PDF]

Condensed Matter Physics, 2024, Vol. 27, No. 1, 13802
Bacteria are prolific at colonizing diverse surfaces under a widerange of environmental conditions, and exhibit fascinating examples of self-organization across scales. Though it has recently attracted considerable interest, the role of mechanical forces in the collective behavior of bacterial colonies is not yet fully understood.
