Artificial Intelligence

All computer science is artificial intelligence. Some versions of it are smarter than other versions. I hear that Python is pretty smart. Apparently, it is relatively slow, but can be used for developing artificial intelligence.

H2O and OpenNN are good examples of free and open source artificial intelligence that you can investigate. You’re most likely already using a variety of commercial artificial intelligence.

Smart phones use artificial intelligence. Amazon Alexa, Microsoft Cortana, Google Assistant and Apple Siri are making tremendous progress towards the development of artificial intelligence for your home. Cars are getting smarter every year.

You can also investigate the IBM Q Experience and see if you can use quantum computing in your holistic home office. Be creative. Be a prolific artist, an ingenious scientist and a high performance business executive.

You can use commercial artificial intelligence if you want to. They are good examples for you to learn from. They are obviously much more powerful than any home made system, at least to start with.

The advantage of a home made, free and open source artificial intelligence system, is that you get to design it and use it in any way you want to. You are in control of your own artificial intelligence, instead of some corporation owning and controlling it.

Of course, it will be a very big project. I recommend that you get your whole family involved. Each person will bring a variety of talents to the business. One person might like working on developing and maintaining your system. Others might prefer to work on creating art and other content. You can bring in other friends and you can even hire specialists to cultivate your holistic home office based free enterprise.

I recommend investigating Linux. Kubuntu is my favorite distribution. Learn how it works and get really good at using it. Then start learning how to use Konsole, ZSH and Vim to program your computers using your command line interface, rather than your graphical user interfaces. Learn how to write scripts to automate your computing tasks.

Once you get familiar with your basic Linux system, start investigating HTML, CSS and Javascript. Get your website set up ASAP. Start with a simple WordPress website. Learn the basics.

Study Python. Drill down into the computer science. Read books about it. Watch videos about it. Take some online courses. and then learn how to set up your local development environment and start building your websites from scratch, using a Python framework, like Flask or Django.

Zurb Foundation is a CSS framework and Vue is a Javascript framework that you can use to make your websites shine. Python is your backend and Zurb Foundation and Vue are your front end. Start building your website with plain Django or Flask. Once you get familiar with that process, then add the Zurb Foundation and Vue to that.

You can use Zurb Foundation and Vue, on top of Python and Flask or Django, to build high performance clouds of artificial intelligence. Your website will be your portal onto our global cloud of artificial intelligence.

Start experimenting and practicing using artificial intelligence to build your own channel of online entertaining education. Build up a high performance stack of artificial intelligence for delivering your attractive and valuable content.

You are the most important component of your system. Your family and any other team mates are equally important facets of the art, science and business of your holistic home office.

Make sure you all have fun. If anyone is not interested in working on your project, then wish them well and support them in whatever career they do want to work in. I’m just encouraging you to practice the real, original capitalism in your holistic home office, your family farm, your mom and pop shop, in the information age.
