“If a university faculty were
to write a very short 1 page proposal, I could circulate it to a couple IBMers

Dear IBMers,
At
the invitation of IBM Global University Director Jim Spohrer, I’m writing with
a research proposal to IBM Global University and a related network of IBMers to
study how to plan for adding Watson, BlueMix, cognitive computing and
artificial intelligence to MIT OCW-Centric wiki World University and School,
and in particular around this WUaS "SUBJECT TEMPLATE" - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/SUBJECT_TEMPLATE - and using a MediaWiki/qLabel/Wikipedia/Wikicommons/Wikidata/Wikibase
and especially SemanticWiki framework/platform in the process (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2014/10/aquilegia-in-what-ways-might-it-be.html), and in anticipating
further artificial intelligence / cognitive computing developments by faculty.
In this proposal, I extend the main idea in this letter to include “If a WUaS
faculty member in “The College at WUaS” (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/The_College_at_World_University_and_School), “”Ph.D. Degrees at World University and
School” (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Ph.D._Degrees_at_World_University_and_School), “World
University Law School” (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University_Law_School), “World
University Medical School” (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University_Medical_School), - all planned
for large languages, and accrediting in most nation states - were to write a 1
page proposal for adding cognitive computing in their discipline in their
language to facilitate open teaching and learning (e.g. “Conference Method of
Teaching and Learning” - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Conference_Method_of_Teaching_and_Learning), STEM-, MIT
OCW and Humanities-centric, in the information technology age, what would they
want and how could they even best and differentially co-develop such cognitive
computing technologies with Watson, Bluemix and IBM Global University?
While
such A.I. developments viz. parallel computation, big data, and better
algorithms (http://www.wired.com/2014/10/future-of-artificial-intelligence/), and
especially in the case of WUaS vis-à-vis datasets of all 7,106 languages, in
terms of reasoning by cognitive computing machines, might seem more
straightforward in the future in S.T.E.M. education subjects and academic disciplines
(e.g. http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/STEM_Education_-_Science,_Technologies,_Engineering_and_Mathematics#World_University_and_School_Links), I would like
to also inquire about the multiple ways in which faculty members could bring
machine learning to the humanities (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Humanities#World_University_and_School_Links) digitally, as
well as in creating new wiki “Subjects” at WUaS in subject areas that one loves
teaching and learning about and creatively?
Additionally,
as a faculty member, founder and developer of MIT OCW-centric WUaS, I would
like to inquire of you IBMers how WUaS might best develop cognitive computing
in WUaS’s 12 main areas - Languages, Countries, You at WUaS, Subjects, Courses
& Schools, Music School at WUaS, Library Resources, Museums, Hardware
Resource Possibilities, Educational Software, Research, and at the Foundation
at WUaS (http://worlduniversityandschool.org/) - including in WUaS “board room” (e.g. https://www.linkedin.com/groups/Brilliant-Boardroom-Cognitive-Computing-DCEC-6729452.S.5933951739307765763) most of which
are planned for 7,106+ languages and 242+ countries. I particularly would like
CC MIT OCW-centric WUaS to be significant in saving, preserving and generating
knowledge in all languages (7,106 languages - 287 Wikipedia languages = 6,819+
other languages) as online MIT OCW-centric wiki schools, and how WUaS could best
develop with cognitive computing for this?
Guide A.I. Conversation
World
University and School, which is like Wikipedia with MIT OCW with plans to be in
all 7,106 languages as wiki schools, and to offer online accredited MIT-centric
university degrees in most countries and large languages, including law
degrees, will develop with A.I. – e.g. http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Artificial_Intelligence - and may be one international university institution
which will be significantly part of the "Guide A.I." conversation.
In what ways might A.I. inform this further and significantly? I’d like to
propose here exploring the above queries.
