    Minds and melds in Open Web Mind

    Open Web Mind is a knowledge hypergraph that holds all human knowledge. But it’s not a monolith. It’s made up of many individual minds. Each mind is its own knowledge hypergraph. Each has different edges, but these edges are between the same nodes. Which means you can meld your mind with other minds, and think as if your mind and those other minds were one. Open Web Mind is a billion knowledge hypergraphs that hold a billion individuals’ and institutions’ knowledge, melded into a combinedknowledge hypergraph that holds all human knowledge. It’s a billion minds, melded into humanity’s mind. — Hosted by Mark Jeffery founder of Open Web MindI release the Open Web Mind podcast as a video too! Watch here. The full article is here.

    The simplest protocol ever

    Open Web Mind is a hypergraph of nodes and hyperedges. Nothing more. Nothing less. It’s the simplest protocol ever.

    What is a hyperedge in Open Web Mind?

    I’ve talked about edges in Open Web Mind, representing connections between nodes. But there’s a more precise way to represent connections in Open Web Mind. Hyperedges. Hyperedges are what make Open Web Mind a truly powerful way to capture human knowledge. They transform the knowledge graph into the knowledge hypergraph. — References: Node names and definitions from WordNet created by Princeton University licensed under WordNet 3.0 license— Hosted by Mark Jeffery founder of Open Web MindI release the Open Web Mind podcast as a video too!

    Open Web Mind... why now?

    I first imagined minds that might augment our own some three decadesago. Yes, I really am that old, and I have the grey hair to prove it. So why, three decades later, is it finally the right time for a mind for all humanity? Why now? Here are three reasons why the time is ripe for Open Web Mind: Reason #1: Search is deadReason #2: Smash the systemReason #3: Seeing is believing— References: google.comStartpage – uses Google searchYouTubeGmailImages weren’t introduced into HTML until 1995......several years after Tim Berners-Lee wrote the first specification in 1990Google didn’t introduce image searches until 2001......prompted by Jennifer Lopez’s green Versace dress......several years after WebCrawler launched the first true search engine in 1994— Hosted by Mark Jeffery founder of Open Web MindI release the Open Web Mind podcast as a video too!

    What is fire in Open Web Mind?

    How do you think? Fire. The billions of neurons in your brain fire trillions of times a second. How do you think in Open Web Mind? Same answer. Fire. — References: There are billions of neurons in your brain.They fire trillions of times a second.There’s resting potential, threshold potential and action potential.Each neuron, if it fires, it communicates a signal to thousands of other neurons.Images: Political World & Political Africa from the CIA’s World Factbook public domain— Hosted by Mark Jeffery founder of Open Web MindI release the Open Web Mind podcast as a video too!

    Why is the web written in the wrong language?

    If you go to any web page, chances are you’ll find it’s written in the wrong language. It shouldn’t be written in English. Or Japanese. Or Arabic. The web shouldn’t be written in any language spoken by humans. It shouldn’t mimic the way we speak. It should mimic the way we think. — References: A hundred billion neurons are intricately interconnected in our brainsA few tens of thousands of years ago, we evolved languageA few thousand years ago, we invented writingA few decades ago, we invented the webImages: Skara2 via https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Skara2.jpg by Rob Farrow licensed under CC BY-SA 2.0Newgrange – Ireland via https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Newgrange_-_Ireland.jpg by Andrew Kearns licensed under CC BY 2.0Reproduction cave of Altamira 01 by MatthiasKabel licensed under CC BY 2.5Prehistoric Rock Paintings at Manda Guéli Cave in the Ennedi Mountains – northeastern Chad 2015 via https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Prehistoric_Rock_Paintings_at_Manda_Gu%C3%A9li_Cave_in_the_Ennedi_Mountains_-_northeastern_Chad_2015.jpg by David Stanley licensed under CC BY 2.0Menhir du Pré du Devens à Saint-Aubin NE by Marc Juillard licensed under attribution licenseMerseburg, Kulturhistorisches Museum, Gefäße der Rössener Kultur-2 by Dguendel licensed under CC BY 4.0Pilspets – Historiska museet – DIG 55462 via https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Pilspets_-Historiska_museet-_DIG_55462.jpg by Ola Myrin licensed under CC BY 4.0Stonehenge2007 07 30 via https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Stonehenge2007_07_30.jpgby garethwiscombe licensed under CC BY 2.0Depictions and hieroglyphics – Sanctuary via https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Depictions_and_hieroglyphics_-Sanctuary(14284133120).jpg by Jorge Láscar licensed under CC BY 2.0Chinese fishing nets, Cochin via https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Chinese_Fishing_Nets_Cochin.jpgby Brian Snelson licensed under CC BY 2.0Salterio, xvi secolo, 02 iniziale D by Sailko licensed under CC BY 3.0The Great wall via https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_Great_wall_-_by_Hao_Wei.jpg by Hao Wei licensed under CC BY 2.013-11-02-olb-by-RalfR-03 by Ralf Roletschek licensed under CC BY 3.0The Difference Engine wheels via https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_Difference_Engine_wheels_(4376246859).jpgby Marcin Wichary licensed under CC BY 2.0Hite Crossing Bridge HWY95 view2 MC by Christian Mehlführerlicensed under CC BY 2.5Physics Book via https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Physics_Book.jpg by basykeslicensed under CC BY 2.0“Ivy Mike” atmospheric nuclear test – November 1952 from The Official CTBTO Photostream public domainEndeavour via https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Shuttle_in_outer_space_by_NASA.jpgby prayitnophotography licensed under CC BY 2.0Wikipedia articles on knowledge in English, Japanese and Arabic— Hosted by Mark Jeffery founder of Open Web MindI release the Open Web Mind podcast as a video too!

    What is flow in Open Web Mind?

    Why is it so hard to flow from one thing to another on the web? In our minds, we flow so easily from one motion to the next, one feeling to the next, one idea to the next. Why can’t it be like this when we’re on the web? Why can’t we flow as easily through our collective mind? Well, with Open Web Mind, we can. — Hosted by Mark Jeffery founder of Open Web MindI release the Open Web Mind podcast as a video too! Watch here. The full article is here.

    AI won't kill Google... here's what will

    Far from killing Google, AI slots seamlessly into their business model. As long as we still go to Google when we want to know something, and as long as Google tells us what we want to know at least as well as OpenAI, and as long as we don’t care that Google’s balancing what we want to know with what people with influence and people with money want us to know, then it doesn’t matter how Google arrives at a particular response to a particular search, whether it’s through a three-decade-old PageRank algorithm or through the latest in AI. AI won’t kill Google. But what if something else came along that didn’t have to perform that tightrope walk between what we want to know and what Google wants us to know? What if that something else weren’t a search engine? It’s at the dawn of something completely different – completelyunexpected – that the mighty fall. — References: chat.openai.comperplexity.aigemini.google.com Google’s PageRank algorithmSources: When Windows launched in 1985, IBM was worth $30 billion. Now it’s worth $160 billion.When Netscape launched in 1994, Microsoft was worth around $20 billion. Now it’s worth $3 trillion.When Instagram launched in 2010, Facebook, too, was worth around $20 billion. Now it’s worth $1 trillion.When TikTok launched in 2016, YouTube was worth maybe $100 billion. Now it’s worth maybe $400 billion. Google has been using AI to improve their search engine since 2001.Admittedly, AI didn’t work its way to the core of the search engine, ranking results, until 2015, but that was before OpenAI was born.Google pays Apple $20 billion a year so that when you want to know something on your iPhone, you go to Google.— Hosted by Mark Jeffery founder of Open Web MindI release the Open Web Mind podcast as a video too!
