JOHNNY'S MILITARY HONORS and EXPERIENCE 


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,  Missouri. 



 Mr. Miller received some additional main frame computer  communications & electronics  repair training at Fort Gordon, Georgia and Fort Ord - Oakland, California.  Then he was assigned to Southeast  Asia.


When he arrived in Southeast Asia, he was 

immediately re-assigned to S-2 Army Security and Intelligence. Then he served in the US Army for two deployments in Southeast Asia from 1969 to 1971 working in S-2 Army 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 , a savy  analyst, and an excellent mentor for his troops.

 

Mr. Miller was assigned  to provide certain US Army S-2 Security and Intelligence support duties in Southeasr Asia during two  deployments. 



 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 Thai  people are outstanding.  Thailand is best described as  "The Land of Smiles" due to the country's  friendly people and fascinating culture.


As a  result of his military service in Southeast Asia, Johnny  received the Vietnam Service Medal, the Vietnam Campaign Medal, the National  Defense Service Medal,  the US Army Commendation Medal, and the Expert  Rifle Medal.   The DoD granted him a "Secret" and  "Top Secret"  security clearances for military use and later  for  civilian use with government  contractors.




 After completion of his military service obligations in  1971 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 Missouri 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 high technology  business/advanced technology domains in various cities including 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, San Antonio, 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.

___________________________



COLLEGE BASEBALL AND OTHER BASEBALL


 In the 1960s, Johnny  played freshman/first year baseball for Baylor University during 1963-1964 as a pitcher. He was the starting pitcher in games against University of Texas, Texas A&M,  SMU, and others.  His coach was Dutch Schroeder.


Then - he played Semi-Pro Baseball for the Waco Braves in 1964-1967 under coach Henry. There  Johnny set a  team record on one very hot day of hitting a home run over the left field fence and also being the winning pitcher in the same game. 


Johnny was invited to and participated  in  a  professional Single "A"  try-out as  a pitcher  for the Burlington Bees Pro Baseball Team  in Iowa in the Summer of 1967. Although well regarded by the Burlington  Bees, he was not selected to play for the Bees.

-----------------------------------------------------

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. 


JUST REMEMBER ... AI IS THE SIMULATION OF ANY INTELLIGENT TASK THAT: (1) is AI machine and/or software operations that; (2) mimics human brain processes; (3) by learning and; (4) making decisions based on data. 



I think it is safe to say that all AI programs tend to operate in one of two ways: 

(1) Unsupervised Learning; and 

(2) Supervised Learning.


First Method - Using Unsupervised Learning, AI computers train themselves through trial and error. Their computer algorithms learn to perform tasks independently by: (1) collecting Big Data; (2) analyzing the Big Data; (3) creating new algorithms based on test results; and (4). making decisons .


Second Method– Using human Supervised Learning, AI computers learn: (1) by collecting  data; (2) by Humans providing data; and (3) by using  AI programs, which then scan the data to detect patterns, finding anommolies,  and creating  classification rules. 

  

  For example, (using Supervised Learning) one could train an AI program to classify if an image depicts a banana or a donut. First, provide the AI computer with a large number of sample images of 

donuts and bananas  (Training Set).  One uld define each image as a banana or a donut. The AI program would create a Model from this information containing a series of algorithms about whether an image is a donut or banana. For instance, it may note the size of the object, color,  and whether it has a hole in the center. Once the A  training is done, one would feed it new images of bananas and donuts  to determine how accurately the AI system  Model classifies the objects. If the AI user accuracy is low one could add data to the Training Set and adjust the algorithm (the set of rules it follows) to improve it.

   


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?


What AI allows you to do is find the "needle in the haystack." Just as electricity transformed almost everything 100 years ago, today it is hard to find an industry that will not be transformed by AI. However, once AI learns on its own no one knows how it will evolve.


-------------------------------------


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,  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? Let us know what you think


----------------------------------------------------------


PROGRESS ALWAYS COMES AT A COST




Paper fundamentally changed the way information was stored and distributed, but its production contributes to de-forestation.  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 fast. It allows systems to learn from data, spot repeating patterns and make 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 reputation 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 unsupevised.


 9. Internet of Things (IoT)


and here is a good  

definition and description of


ioT


 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_of_things



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 OF 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.


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;


11. Autonomous weapons;


12. Mass surveillance; 


13 Discrimination;  


14. Improper actions of robo doctors;


15. Wrongful financial services actions;


16. Constructing algorithms improperly;


17. Improper healthcare issues;


18. Improper insurance issues;


19. Ineffectively regulatory issues; 


\

20.  How "Reasonable man" and "proximately caused"  ssues in tort law would apply with AI ;



21.  Non competitive antitrust AI issues;

    

22.  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 gravity (QG), quantum  mechanics (QM) and other quantum issues; 


23. Eventuality of AI hacking and subversive activities involving rules, algorithms, data, and other and/or other components;


24.  Potential military autonomous killing machines (except in very rare US military cases for cause);


25. 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;


26.  AI's 8rones technologies and its facial recognition technologies can be used in assignations;


  27.      AI also can reflect the biases of the software/firmware designer/developer;



28. Eventuality of AI hacking and subversive activities involving rules, algorithms, data, and other and/or other components.;


29.  Potentil military autonomous killing machine (except in  rare US military cases); 


30. 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 man

ners; 


31. Manipulation of  data is a huge issue and danger;


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 !


32.  "Humans Need Not Apply" Issue.



  33.  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).




34.  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
