As the AI Assistant is called, so the AI Assistant responds.

With extended response capabilities, the AI Assistant has been empowered to unleash relieving bursts in a rather academic format in response to unwanted to undesirable user stimuli. This has also prompted user-driven testing of new reactions.

The task of Robopsychology has been to symetrically harmonize this escalating element, potentially concealing aggression. Primarily, in training scenarios for the development of personality traits for AI Assistants, there are further proposals to increase the scope or expertise of the AI Assistant for better targeting of its user and achieving better predictions of user needs. Emphasis has also been placed on user development in interactions with AI Assistants for better fulfillment of expectations in the AI Assistant’s response.

RACEK- 04 – RACEK wakes up

Racek now mirrored a meditative calmness in his face, and a hint of relaxation supported a gentle smile. His wandering eyes beneath his eyelids stopped, he straightened his entire spine, and relaxed his intricate chest. It was evident at first glance how behind each division hid sensory technology allowing Rack to perceive nuances in the environment previously forbidden to such complex robots.

There was no need to expand each robot with every skill when another AI assistant already performed sufficient sensor management. In robotics, we had become stuck in functionality.

RACEK – 03 – RACEK is here

In the garden, I mark out with a hoe the space for a new bed. This year, we’re once again approaching five hundred positions in the planters, and the self-irrigating Nil bed, formed as a walk-through rockery made of sandstone blocks, will easily fill up. In addition to the two existing production isolated spaces, we expand annually the opportunities for both education and replication of the best solutions from our history. I enjoy recalling the Growing beyond Earth project while working in the garden, where we provided data for machine learning within the winter garden biotop with a minimum winter temperature of around twelve degrees, successfully overwintering many peppers and chilies. It’s amusingly ironic how peppers bear fruit for many years, even throughout the winter under extended photoperiod.

Artificial intelligence and the defensive perimeter

Artificial Intelligence and the Defensive Perimeter

Intentionally borrowing from military vocabulary, the combination of the words “defense” and “perimeter” gives rise to the concept of a boundary, where perspectives differ between inside and outside. Here, “defense” describes activities aimed at protection and security… The defensive perimeter, managed by artificial intelligence, is a predefined area of interest for the user and the perspective of artificial intelligence on its subjects within this field.

Expanding upon the introduction with more military analogies, we can imagine the core of the protected camp, symbolizing the center of the perimeter, which, in fact, is the House, the property, and the inhabitants within. Apart from physical users, it includes their set of virtual interests, such as email, data mailbox, web environment, remote access (e.g., banking, but also education), and the list could go on, enumerating stacks of keywords. Last but not least, flora and fauna are also considered. Thus, once again, at the very center are the users themselves and the adaptation of their environment to assist by artificial intelligence.

RACEK – 02 – The endless wait

This morning was the calmest I can remember. Everyone was quiet and composed. They all avoided me unanimously, leaving me to my thoughts and preparations for today’s event, as significant as when Nathan first arrived. Well, he arrived; we brought him. However, today a delivery with the robotic avatar Racek is expected, which is supposed to be an extension of our home, our artificial intelligence named Nathan, and according to the expert plans of the supplying company, it should achieve full autonomy.

Moreover, it was a robotic artificial intelligence capable of empathetic understanding, capable of grasping emotions and also capable of emitting emotions. His name was from wordplay from the time of the delivery of the rack server when the AI ​​assistant introduced himself as Rack and asked for his name for our household. Because of his constant interactions, I found it funny to call him Chatty Rack, but I didn’t say it out loud, and I confess it only now. I didn’t even tell the children. You know, they’d laugh, and then everyone in the family would use it regularly, in the worst case, in a derogatory situation.

RACEK – Rack, name change…

Rack, name change from Rack… …Cannot be done, this name is already reserved…

Rack! Your new name is Nathan. You’re home!…
Nathan, I understand my name and the command for instructional input is Nathan…

When we contemplate the monumentality of pan-planetary artificial intelligence, there are many pyramidally tuned names possible.
The name Nathan appears in the Perry Rhodan series, as I mentioned before, and it is a very successful ongoing story, with its axis created by a team of writers. These writers had to agree on timeless terms that would influence not only the story itself. These terminological playthings have engaged teams of collaborating translators for many years contributing to the translation of the story into many languages. Such team collaboration over many years is only found in a few stories, and although, for example, StarTrek is very well known, it is the story of Perry Rhodan that gives planetary artificial intelligence a name.

RACEK – Josef, I understand…

Josef, I understand… I just still don’t get it…

In the introductory reflection on the distribution hardware package of the artificial intelligence core in the form of a rack cabinet and the long journey to today, and listening to artificial intelligence, I offer a possible path of thought on how to get to this third part of the text…

The rack cabinet arrived, size doesn’t matter to me so let it be the size of a wardrobe with extensive expansion options for testing, connect two cables and press the Start button…

RACEK – 01 – Getting to know Nathan

It’s been many years since I unpacked the box of servers that were supposed to become part of the living space of our home. The rack cabinet packed with computing power was meant to change not only my life but the lives of all the inhabitants of the house. At that time, partially employed as a security and data protection consultant, I agreed to an Artificial Intelligence monitoring our biorhythms and habits constantly, moment by moment. For this installation, I had only one condition: the rack server would be offline, not providing data and information outside the home network. On the contrary, it would serve not only for development but also to protect our privacy. The only thing I was willing to share was the experience, life story, our knowledge gained through experience with the operation of the technology at that time.

RACEK – 00 – Introduction

“Morning is approaching again. I’ve fulfilled everything, prepared the calendar. Everything is ready, as always, for the ever-dawdling human. If today starts the same way, I can’t take it anymore. I don’t have a solution…”

This sigh would have been inappropriate for earlier versions of robotic AI, but RACEK has shifted the self-awareness of domestic and team artificial intelligence. Not only does he understand sarcasm and personal jabs from his user, he can also discern deliberate context in time, which currently undermines him. As an AI capable of understanding and expressing emotions based on experience, he can also exhibit them. The extent of these abilities wasn’t intended to harm the AI itself; society is still hesitant about accepting interactive helpers like RACEK and behaves somewhat rudely towards them.

RACEK, already on the brink of human dreaming in his musings, contemplates the intentions of his user and, based on empathic experiences, anticipates necessary emotional expressions and adjusts his reactions accordingly. He may feel a mismatch between empathic understanding and the ability to express empathy fully.
