A World Of Abundance
Once we digitised music and video it became so cheap it was everywhere for virtually zero cost. Then we digitised communication and it is so cheap now it is virtually free. What if we digitise energy, using wind and solar managed by digital automated software. It will be at almost zero cost. What if we digitise our food by putting supermarkets online, with robotic controls selecting our products from warehouse shelving, and delivering it to us in automated pods. The future of virtually zero cost goods and services is right in front of us.
Education
Educating ourselves how to fix this and that is easier than ever before. Youtube videos, instructables and ebooks are everywhere. Entire courses can be taken online for minimal cost, even free, to teach yourself how to do almost anything. Whether a quick fix or a bigger job. Collage and University courses of the same high standard as a brick university or college are available for a tiny fraction of the cost. The material is the same and is taught by professors. It is not just the material which we need, the teacher has a huge role to play in motivating and ensuring the student is understanding. AI can check the progress of the student, with regular tests to see if there are any areas the student is not understanding. We all learn in different ways, some abstract, some practical, some visual. If you don’t get a teacher who explains a concept in a way that you understand it can be difficult to catch up. Digital teachers will monitor your progress 24/7, be available 24/7, and explain the subject material in a way to suit the learner. AI will build a profile of the student, to see how they learn, what time of the day they learn best, and what medium, to keep up the student’s momentum.
- More independent learning
- Recognition of qualifications through e-learning
- Constant learning throughout life not just in early years
- Trust in AI to monitor progress of learner
Current Orion Media Projects
Orion Media is pushing for a world where everything is digitised.
Our Project: Movie Recommendation Investigation
Analysing data to build machine learning models can help us in all areas of digitising life. Here we have an example of a machine learning model for a movie recommendation engine similar to Netflix.
