3. John ("Johnny") E. Miller
Texas Attorney Emeritus
State Bar of Texas
The Law Office of John E. Miller
Bryan, Texas
EDUCATION
Mr. Miller received a BA in Political Science (with a minor in Oral Communication) from Baylor University in 1967, a JD in Law from University of Memphis in 1973, a LLM in Urban (Legal) Affairs from University of Missouri KC Law School in 1980, and a CPCM from NCMA in 2015.
LEGAL FOCUS, PUBLICATIONS, AND CIVILIAN AWARDS
Mr. Miller's legal focus is in contracts, procurement, business law, computor software, IP, licensing, export compliance, technology transfer, and AI & ML legal and contractual issues. In the last 20 years he has published more than 20 professional articles in the National Contract Management Association (NCMA) "Contract Management (CM) Magazine", American Bar Assocjation, and other national magazines. Links to each of these profession publications can be
found at www.con-tracts.com.
In 1980 he was awarded the Annual Midwest Research Institute (MRI) Contract Department Improvement Award for his creation of the "Pro-active Contracts Administration Program (PCAP). " Johnny was working for MRI at that time. PCAP is a system to be used by each contract administrator to pro-actively observe, discover, identify, analyze and correct contractual, legal. technical, financial, schedule, and other issues in contracts before they ripen into problems.
In 1990 he was one of ten of Radian Corporation's 2,000 employees to win a "Corporate Achievement Award. This award was granted to him primarily for his work in safeguarding Radian's intellectual property.
In 2007 he was the co-winner of the Annual National Contracts Management Association - Charles J. Delaney Memorial Award for the most outstanding national article published in the National Contract Management Association
Magazine.
Early 2013 he was involved in the following Colorado CLE presentation: *Advising Small Companies - Responding to Your Clients' Needs with Practical Advice – February 27, 2013 – Colorado Bar Association CLE - Basics of Contract Drafting and Negotiations: - Analysis of common contract provisions; Strategy in Contract Drafting; and Negotiating Tips - Presented by Colleen Belak, Esq. - http://cle.cobar.org/Seminars/EventInfo/sessionaltcd/BL022713L.aspx - with Johnny Miller’s Sixty Practical Contract Drafting Tips – NCMA CM Magazine in April 2006 -
http://www.ncmahq.org/file/Articles/B50B6_CM_Apr06_p62.pd
MILITARY EXPERIENCE, DUTY, AND HONORS
During the first semester of the second year of Law School, Johnny was "fortunate enough" to be drafted into the US ARMY on October 31, 1968 (Halloween). In those days military draft educational deferments were not granted to law/legal students.
After completion of US Army Basic Combat Training on January 11, 1969 Colonel Irvine G. Hughes, Infantry (Commanding) selected Johnny as the "TOP MAN" in his US Army Basic Combat Training Company, Ft. Leonard Wood.
Mr. Miller received some additional main frame computer communications computer communications electronics repair training at Fort Gordon, Georgia and Fort Ord - Oakland, California. When he arrived in Southeast Asia, he was
immediantly re-assinged to S-2 Security and Intelligence. Then he served in the US Army in Southeast Asia from 1969 to 1971 working in S-2 Security and Intelligence (Battalion Level) for the US Army Signal Corp. He was awarded the US Army Commendation Medal for his work in Southeast Asia by his Commanding Officer - Lieutenant Colonel Ed Jones. Lieutenant Colonel Jones was an outstanding leader and an excellent mentor for his troops.
Mr. Miller was assigned (along with others) to provide certain US Army S-2 Security and Intelligence support duties to most of the US Army Signal Corp in Thailand (except the Bangkok, Chang Mai and Pattaya Regions) and specifically including Monkey (Son Tra) Mountain,. Vietnam (about 30 miles from the USA Da-Nang Air Base , Vietnam). Monkey Mountain was called Monkey Mountain for good reason! There were monkeys everywhere !
Mr. Miller also supported various US Army Signal Corp S-2 Security and Intelligence activities in Laos and Cambodia, as required. He supported and provided Ho Chi Minh Trail surveilance, as required. The Ho Chi Minh Trail was an elaborate logistical network of about 10,000 miles of roads support. and trails that ran in a southernly direction from North Vietnam through .parts of Laos and Cambodia and then into South Vietnam. It provided North Vietnam with troops (Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army ), supplies, ammo, weapons, and equipment.
Johnny was permanently stationed in Korat, Thailand. He and his wife Nancy (a US Citizen) lived off post on the local Korat economy. Nancy got a job as a full time kinder-garden teacher (independent contractor) on the Korat, Thailand US Army base - Camp Friendship.
Thailand is a very beautiful country and the Thai people are outstanding. Thailand is best described as "The Land of Smiles."
After completing two back-to-back deployments to Southeast Asia, Johnny received the Vietnam Service Medal W/2 Stars and the Vietnam Campaign Medal W/60 Device. Additionally, his name ("JOHN EDDIE MILLER") and his branch of service (US ARMY) have been inscribed on the Brazos Valley Veterans Memorial Marble Wall located in Veterans Park, iCollege Station, Texas.
After completion of his military service obligations in i971 he completed the remainder of law school and then practiced law as a small town attorney for six years in a general civil practice in Missouri. He was also an Assistant Professor of Business Law at Central Missoui State University. during part of this time period.
.At that point onward, starting in 1980, he moved-on as a Texas attorney and started working in Texas for several high-technology companies.
.Mr. Miller has continuously worked (with ... "his boots on the ground"...) for more than 40+ years in many big business/advanced technology domains in various cities inluding but not limited to: Austin, Houston, St. Louis, Chicago, Detroit, Memphis, Atlanta, Cleveland, North Carolina, New York, Boston, Denver, Dallas, LA, San Francisco, San Diego, Sacramento, El Paso, Philly, Bangkok, Sydney, Melborne, Mexico City, and other locations with increasing levels of responsibility.
A list of his numerous specific high tech clients and employers is available upon request.
BASEBALL: In the 1960s, he played baseball for Baylor University during 1963-1964 and then he played Semi-Pro Baseball the Waco Braves in 1964-1967.
TENNIS: Johnny played a lot of competitive
singles & doubles tennis
tournaments in the 1970's. He was the First Place 1978 Outdoor Overland Park, Summer Singles Tournament Winner, in Overland Park, Kansas on a very hot weekend in Overland Park. Johnny vividly remembers that he took a long time-out before starting that 3rd set of the singles finals. He went to the Men's locker room and flopped flat on the large shower room floor and turned the cold water on his body - full blast for about 15 minutes just to cool off. He then went on to win the Men's Singles Finals.
GOLF: Johnny played golf in the Sedalia , Missouri Country Club Lawyers Annual Best Ball Scrambles Tournament in the Summer of 1975. Johnny's doubles partner in the best-ball scramble tournament was Bill T, an excellent attorney and a very good golfer. The Bill T-Johnny Miller Team won first place
in that golf tournament.

THE MAIN THRUST OF THIS WEB SITE AND THE FEATURE ARTICLE
THE MAIN THRUST OF THIS WEB SITE IS NOT THE DARK / EVIL SIDE OF AI BUT RATHER RESEARCHING, EDUCATING, TEACHING, PROMOTING, AND APPLYING: (1) SAFETY; (2) INTEGRITY; (3) HONESTY; (4) ETHICS; (5) ZERO BIAS; (6) EMPATHY; (7) RESPONSIBILITY; AND (8) SOCIAL BENEFIT WITH REGARD TO ALL ASPECTS OF GOOD UNITED STATES ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE INCLUDING (BUT NOT LIMITED TO) MACHINE LEARNING, DEEP LEARNING, ROBOTICS, ROBOTIC VISION, NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING, VOICE RECOGNITION, SPEECH RECOGNITION, FACIAL RECOGNITION, DRONES, ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS, INTERNET OF THINGS, AND OTHER ASPECTS OF AI.
-----------------------------------------------------
DEFINITION OF AI
The definition of Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be a little confusing. However let's give it a shot and try to make it easier understood.
AI IS THE SIMULATION OF ANY INTELLIGENT TASK.
AI is a subset of Data Science. Data Science is a subset of Computer Science. AI (as a subset of Data Science) is the ability of a machine and/or of computer software/firmware programs to find, assemble, process, calculate, translate, think, reason, learn, problem-solve, identify risks, create speech recognition, develop human-like speech generation, incorporate feedback, remember, reduce errors, exercise continuous improvement, and potentially act (to some extent). It could be performing in a manner that some people would consider it as ... "intelligent."
AI is a field of science covering how computers can make decisions as well as (and sometimes better than) humans. AI needs to be able to understand humans. Machine Learning (ML), a subset of AI, refers to the popular modern-day techniques for creating software that learns from data. It involves learning how to carry out a task from data without being programed to carry out the task. For example, Facial Recognition (FR) is Machine Learning. Applications of Machine Learning normally use a Neural Network (NN). A Neural Network is a computer system mimicking the human brain. An example of Deep Learning is Speech Recognition (SR). Included in the AI definition is the difference between weak/narrow AI and strong/broad AI. Strong AI genuinely simulates human reasoning while weak AI is just focusing on getting a system to work without simulating human cognitive behavior (thinking the way a human would think). Today most of the AI work falls somewhere between weak AI and strong AI. Let's call that "Mid-Range AI." There - that AI definition wasn't so bad - was it?
JUST REMEMBER ...
AI IS THE SIMULATION OF ANY INTELLIGENT TASK.
-------------------------------------
PROFESSOR McCARTHY
The term "Artificial intelligence" dates back to about the mid-1950's. About 1956. AI was first named and identified in 1956 by the Sanford professor / researcher John McCarthy as a sub-field of the larger academic study of computer science.
----------------------------------------------
ROCK & ROLL
(The mid 1950's were famous for the development of creative "Rock & Roll" music. Remember Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bo Diddley, Elvis, Buddy Holly, Johnny Cash, Connie Francis, etc, etc? (FYI - Little Richard was the King of Rock & Roll). They also were bursting in on the music scene in the mid-1950's. So, it was only fitting for that time period to also be the time of the start of development of creative AI.
----------------------------------------------
IMPORTANCE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)
Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems will play a major role in every aspect of life on earth. It will change the world in which we live. AI will improve the speed, accuracy, efficiency, and safety of human decision making. However, it will carry the risks of some unintended or unplanned results.
In fact, AI may turn out to be a greater world problem than any of the future concerns, such as: nuclear security, radiation, climate change, civil unrest, chemical - biological warfare, terrorism, cyber-security, asteroid impact, loss of coral and plankton, alien visitors, locus invasion. destroyed food supply, bacteria and virus threats, power grid destruction, ozone depletion, loss of internet, deforestation, poverty, hunger, lowering water supply, air pollution, sanitation, water shortage, water pollution, nuclear waste, de-forestation, lack of education, loss of rain forests, Disclosure (in the ET meaning) , failure of monetary system, world-wide bankruptcy, and so forth.
Is it possible that AI will be an "existential" event once AI reaches the human /general / conscious / super level and beyond?
----------------------------------------------------------
PROGRESS ALWAYS COMES AT A COST
Paper fundamentally changed the way information was stored and distributed, but its production contributes to deforestation. Industrialization increased our standard of living, but has led to much pollution and social ills.
The benefits brought by the internet are too many to mention, however, misinformation, false-truth, erosion of privacy, scams, election interference, hackers, pornography, dark web, terrorists, human traffic facilitation, and others are all unintended consequences. Not even medicine is free from side effects.
Rarely at the time of creation / implementation is the designer / inventor / creator / implementer / integrator / reseller the best judge of how the system will be used, or truly knows what good or harm will come of it. Understanding this, we ought to analyze the issues deeply before taking on an unintended bad consequence type project.
---------------------------------------------
WHY NOW? BECAUSE THE TIME IS RIGHT
Unlike the past "AI Winter", AI / ML is possible nowadays due to: (1) giant increases in computational capabilities; (2) huge growths in data (big data); (3) focusing on specific / unique problem issues to be addressed; (4) being able to timely convert those unique issues / problems into targeted knowledge engineering rules (algorithms) so that AI systems can learn; (5) efficiently plugging the resulting rules into appropriate AI systems; and (6) allowing AI systems to learn the rules automatically.
-----------------------------------------------
MAJOR AI COMPONENTS
The following items are some of the major components that make up Ai and help to better define AI:
1. Machine Learning (ML)- Machine Learning (ML) is an application of AI that provides systems the ability to automatically learn and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed. Machine learning focuses on the development of computer programs that can access data and use it to learn for themselves. It allows systems to learn from data, identify repeating patterns and making decisions without explicit instructions or human intervention. It enables entities/humans to save time and resources.
ML IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF AI .
ML IS THE MOST ESSENTIAL PART OF AI.
2. Big Data - In the article: "Data, Data, Everywhere", Baylor Arts and Sciences, Special Issue, Research in Arts & Sciences, Fall 2018 (by Julie Engebretson) it states: "It is estimated that about 16.3 Zettabyes of data - the equivalent of 16.3 trillion Gigabytes - is produced in the world each year." Wow ! Now that's big data !
Dark Data (DD) is sometimes data that is obtained through numerous computer network operations but because it is so disorganized it is generally not used to obtain insights or for decision making.
According to Oracle: "Put simply, Big Data is larger, more complex data sets, especially from new data sources. These data sets are so voluminous that traditional data processing software just can't manage them." It includes structured and unstructured data. There is a growing belief that data is more valuable than oil.
Before data can be used in an AI use case it must be cleaned, prepared, and labeled.
Data is the heart of AI. Data is the new electricity. Cleaning data involves eliminating duplicates, deleting extraneous data, and working with data by humans to get it ready for use with the appropriate AI algorithm for a use case.
3. Artificial Neural Networks - Artificial Neural Networks are one of the main tools used in Machine Learning. As the “neural” part of their name suggests, they are brain-inspired systems which are intended to replicate the way that we humans learn. Neural Networks consist of input and output layers, as well as (in most cases) a hidden layer consisting of units that transform the input into something that the output layer can use. They are excellent tools for finding patterns which are far too complex or numerous for a human programmer to extract and teach the machine to recognize.
4. Robotics (including Robotic Vision) - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, it states: “Robotics is an interdisciplinary branch of engineering and science that includes mechanical engineering, electronic engineering, information engineering, computer science, and others. Robotics deals with the design, construction, operation, and use of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing. These technologies are used to develop machines that can substitute for humans and replicate human actions. Robots can be used in many situations and for lots of purposes, but today many are used in dangerous environments (including bomb detection and deactivation), manufacturing processes, or where humans cannot survive (e.g. in space). Robots can take on any form but some are made to resemble humans in appearance. This is said to help in the acceptance of a robot in certain repiutation type behaviors usually performed by people. Such robots attempt to replicate walking, lifting, speech, cognition, and basically anything a human can do. Many of today's robots are inspired by nature, contributing to the field of bio-inspired robotics.” From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia it states: "Robot vision or a Vision Guided Robot (VGR) System is basically a robot fitted with one or more cameras used as sensors to provide a secondary feedback signal to the robot controller to more accurately move to a variable target position. VGR is rapidly transforming production processes by enabling robots to be highly adaptable and more easily implemented, while dramatically reducing the cost and complexity of fixed tooling previously associated with the design and set up of robotic cells, whether for material handling, automated assembly, agricultural applications, life sciences, and more.
5. Facial Recognition- Now here is a controversial topic. A Facial Recognition (FR) system is a technology capable of identifying or verifying a person from a digital image or a video frame from a video source. There are multiple methods in which Facial Recognition systems work, but in general, they work by comparing selected facial features from given image with faces within a database. It is also described as a Biometric AI (BAI). It is an application that can uniquely identify a person by analyzing patterns based on the person's facial textures and face shape.
6. Speech Recognition - Speech Recognition (SR) is the ability of a machine or program to identify words and phrases in a spoken language and convert them to a machine-readable format. Rudimentary speech recognition software has a limited vocabulary of words and phrases, and it may only identify these if they are spoken very clearly.
7. Voice Recognition - The ability of hardware and software to recognize the voice of a person (as unique as a fingerprint). It differs from Speech Recognition 's ability to understand words - not the identity of a person.
8. Deep Learning - Networks capable of learning from unstructured data when the network is unsupervised.
9. Internet of Things (IoT) - This is computer components embedded in many every day objects with capabilities of sending and receiving data and performing other activities. The oil & gas industry is especially ripe for the application of IoT with potential benefits in safety, the environment, reduced spills, reduced carbon emissions, improved monitoring, improved drilling strategy, cost reduction, time savings, and increased revenue.
Here, just below, is a good high level description of how IoT works, as so stated in the LEVERAGE'S E-Book
"An Introduction to Internet of Things:" “An IoT system consists of sensors/devices which “talk” to the cloud through some kind of connectivity. Once the data gets to the cloud, software processes it and then might decide to perform an action, such as sending an alert or automatically adjusting the sensors/devices without the need for the human user . But if user input is needed or if the user simply wants to check in on the system, a user interface allows them to do so . Any adjustments or actions that the user makes are then sent in the opposite direction through the system: from the user interface, to the cloud, and back to the sensors/ devices to make some kind of change."
10. Drones - An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), commonly known as a drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. UAVs are a component of an Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS); which include a UAV, a ground-based controller, and a system of communications between the two. The flight of UAVs may operate with various degrees of autonomy: either under remote control by a human operator or autonomously by onboard computers. Compared to manned aircraft, UAVs were originally used for missions too "dull, dirty or dangerous” for humans. While they originated mostly in military applications, their use is rapidly expanding to commercial, scientific, recreational, agricultural, and other applications, such as policing, peacekeeping, surveillance, product deliveries, aerial photography, agriculture, smuggling, and drone racing. Civilian UAVs now vastly outnumber military UAVs, with estimates of over a million sold by 2017, so they can be seen as an early commercial application of autonomous things, to be followed by the autonomous car and home robot.
11. AI Algorithms - are mathematical instructions that provide step by step procedures for calculations. It is kind-of like a set of step-by-step instructions.
12. Augmented AI - At this point (all things considered), it seems as though one of the most promising methods of beneficially, expeditiously, and effectively making the best use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is to use it to augment the efforts of the AI user.
AI should, on most cases only be used to assist the human worker. It should not be used to replicate and replace him/her.
Augmented Artificial Intelligence (AAI) is the best way to use AI. Augmented Artificial Intelligence refers to the result of skillfully blending human and machine intelligence. With the the proper use of Augmented Artificial Intelligence, Humans will be safer during disasters, better cared for as they get older, and more independent for they get older.

SOME OF THE POTENTIAL
RISKS AND THREATS TO AI
Here are numerous risks and threats that arise out of the use of AI including Machine Learning (ML),, Deep Learning (DL), Robotics, Robot Vision (RV), Internet of Things (IoT), Signal Processing (SP), Neural Networks (NN), Natural Language (NL) and Unstructured Data (UD) or Dark Data (DD) that need to be anticipated and analyzed:
1. If a motor vehicle accident involves AI, trying to find the liable party is difficult and confusing (i.e. a autonomous car hits another vehicle);
2. AI often has to identify vehicles, people, roads, sidewalks, traffic signals, buildings or other items. To do this, AI relies on robotic vision (cameras, radar, infrared, sonar, etc.), sensors, and recordings. Things may not look the same to AI as it does to humans. AI also can reflect the biases of the software/firmware designer/developer;
3. AI is getting closer to actual human-like consciousness. This is also often called: Super A or General AI;
4. Robots utilizing AI may sometime be seeking certain civil rights;
5. If AI commits or is involved in a crime who is guilty?
6. Privacy rights of people are potentially being eroded with AI;
7. AI has been developing a very rapid rate. AI has outpaced applicable legislation;
8. How will AI generated information be used in court? (No right of cross-examination, etc.);
9. Mass unemployment;
10. Wars;

31. Improper healthcare issues;
32. Improper insurance issues;
33. Ineffectively regulatory issues;
34. "Reasonable man" and "proximately caused" issues in tort law;
35. Non competitive antitrust AI issues;
36. In addition to the potential benefits of the quantum issues, we also need to keep an eye on the soon to be emerging potentially harmful uses of quantum physics (QP), quantum computers (QC), quantum mechanics (QM) and other quantum issues;
37. Eventuality of AI hacking and subversive activities involving rules, algorithms, data, and other and/or other components.;
38. Potential autonomous killing machines (except in very rare US military cases);
39. In the event of consciousness in AI, seek the embedding of ethics, clean data, bias, responsibility, error prevention, legal compliance, integrity, moral values, ethics, continuous human feedback, and proper social manners.;
40. Danger of manipulation of data. Data is a huge AI issue.
See:
I
In "Data, Data, Everywhere", Baylor Arts and Sciences, Special Issue, Research in Arts & Sciences, Fall 2018 (by Julie Engebretson) It states: "It is estimated that about 16.3 Zettabyes of data - the equivalent of 16.3 trillion Gigabytes - is produced in the world each year." Wow !
Now that's Big Data !
41. "Humans Need Not Apply"
41. If a motor vehicle accident involves AI, trying to find the liable party is difficult and confusing. (i.e. a autonomous car hits another vehicle).
42. Below is a great link to a very thought-provoking article on the AI dangers to democracy and privacy in the US: "Artificial Intelligence: Risks to Privacy and Democracy - Karl Manheim* and Lyric Kaplan" 21 Yale J.L. & Tech. 106 (201
