Educational Intelligence, Your Memories and why I gave Schooold The Power of Free Will
“Intelligence equals behavior…?” — Turing
Ever since I started creating Schooold I have wrestled with this assumption. The more research I did the more troubling the answers. It isn’t true. Intelligence has more to do with what you don’t do.
Behavior is a manifestation of intelligence. But not the central character or primary definition of being intelligent. But intelligence is not acting or behaving or acting intelligently. It is simply an accomplished equation. That is where I started with Schooold.
Ignoring what goes on in your head and focusing only on what behaviors are displayed, is where everyone goes down the wrong road.
Auto-Associative Memory (The Loop)
Feedback loops. The output of the lesson is fed back into the user. Patterns are recognized like looking into a mirror. Schooold uses the following scientific methods.
- You don’t have to have the entire pattern in order to retrieve the memory, doesn’t have to be the whole or correct pattern. No matter when the pattern was delivered, you can recall it. “Mary had a..” see, I told you.
- Schooold’s Education Loops are designed as sequences of patterns or temporal patterns. Adding a time delay to the feedback, I can present a memory with a sequence of patterns and the memory will recall the whole feedback. Guaranteed 1000% to work. Disagree? Untie your shoe. Now tie it back up. Told ya.
- Social Pressure. Imagine in the 9th grade all of your classmates not only understood compound interest and saving money from every paycheck, but they teased you every day for not knowing something so basic. Taxes. 1099s. How to talk to friends who don’t have money. All in the 9th grade. When I say this statement I get unreal resistance. But, really, everything in high school was the first time I’d heard of the concept.
Intelligent behavior is our goal with Schooold. Intuitive but incorrect assumptions keep 95% of others from the real answers. This is a solvable problem by creating loops wherein people can learn, fail and improve.
Time+Feedback / 4y+8y+12y
Fixed input only monitor output is a fallacy. Nowhere in life is anything that dramatically black and white. You have to have time and feedback(+/-) because the predictive model needed has to be one of maturity or growth in understanding, comprehension, and actions to solve future problems.
I created Schooold in the same rules and terms of a video game. I spent years designing on-boarding scenarios. All for the purpose of teaching you while you engage…to train you to do the rest on your own. Once the pattern is imprinted, Schooold has done its job.
Auto Associative Memories powers Schooold. Auto associative memories are interconnected using lots of feedback, positive and negative triggers and most important, time.
We are focused on how users behavior changes over time, not the actions that warrant a reaction from others.
Impossible Equation
Privilege + Prejudice = -360º World View.
Fortunately, any competition must first solve this impossible equation. Disagree? Think of your portfolio companies. The founders, their backgrounds. The real backgrounds. Not the carefully contrived worlds created by tech media.
I’m sure you, as well as others in your position, have surmised the only linear conclusion to the best efforts.
No pattern exists for the brain to even begin to start solving that problem.
They simply can’t remember how to be better.
Invariant Representations
Our brain relies on memories to fill in any spatial gaps to perform an action. These handle variations in the world automatically. 100 step rule. Memory solves every problem we have. Learned behaviors don’t depend on what we believe the outcome should be to be successful. They just need to successfully match the pattern retrieved by the memory.
Schooold stores the needed references…to be accessed later as stored memories and patterns to recall the hierarchy of success.
The temporal sequence of cognitive commands is the solution.
Because of the unlimited potential to retain what we see, hear, feel and experience, humans will far outpace A.I. Because humans create the A.I.
Auto-Associative Memories
Your brain fills in the rest of any missing information. Temporal patterns flood back into our minds as they began to find/seek/and connect and completing patterns.
Each functional region of the brain is waiting for information to force it to start working on putting together the pattern.
All we need is to simply place the “thoughts” into an appropriate time in our lives and let them become a permanent pattern.
Invariant Representations
Computers copy. Humans program computers to copy. How?
Humans have the ability to imagine. The brain remembers the important relationships in the world independent of the details. A.I. cannot adjust or continuously adjust to the millions of patterns, or trillions of variations of outcomes.
100 step rule
The 100-step rule is a connectionist theory constraint from below in cognitive science and neuroscience that states that no primary brain operation (e.g., face recognition) can take more than 100 neuron firing “steps.” This imposes a temporal restriction on primary brain processes of 500ms. (Feldman & Ballard, 1982)
The brain is creating the best version of the pattern for you, specifically. That is why we recall personal experiences from our point of view. Understanding how is not as important as knowing the how exists.
All of your various experiences get funneled into a stable concept. It belongs to you and can be recalled anytime you need it.
The Human Cortex…takes stored invariant memories and matches them with your current representation of patterns.
