Mount Gongga (Minya Konka), China: M 7/13/26 Recording @WorldUnivAndSch @WUaSPress #WeeklyBusinessMeeting #WUaSaccreditation #AngelaMerkel * (was - M 7/13/26 & 7/20/26 open best STEAM Creative Commons' licensed OpenCourseWare wiki World Univ & Sch WUaS News and Q&A, with Zoom URL )

* * *.*


Dear World University and School community, networks & friends, Universitians, all, 

Greetings, and here are some great new World Univ & Sch WUaS developments: 


A 

Excited to explore further - 

Vernonia flowers: letter to Dear @Theresa_May #FrauAngelaMerkel @ @Atlantic Partnership - 

How might @WorldUnivAndSch @WUaSPress build out ~32 @AtlanticPARTN countries' free world class #WUaSuniversities, accrediting #GermanyWUaS in German & in English in Germany & by adding #MITOCW in 7 languages - and with the University of Oxford?

AND re accreditation of the new Germany World University and School in German on the Open edX Europe platform with https://abstract-technology.de/  ?

* * How many Atlantic partnership countries are there? 32 


A a

Again - 
Are there any organizations in the US or companies that are both a 501C3 tax exempt legal entity like @WorldUnivAndSch & concurrently a for-profit general stock company legal entity in the #StateOfCA like the #WUSCorporation @WUaSPress,
part of #WorldUnivAndSch? 















There are INCREDIBLE potential synergies between these 2 WUaS wings planned in all ~200 countries and for speakers of all 7159 living languages + 



And see Agenda item 2 from the Monday's 6/22/26 Weekly Business Meeting for how these two wings might interoperate financially and regarding IP law further ...






B b
And again
Regarding the WUaS Corporation for profit wing in the state of California, our second wing - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html - 
how will WUaS be able to develop with Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency - https://minepi.com/sgkmac - initially, and as a for-profit general stock company in the state of California, and even possibly with time list the WUaS Corporation on a stock exchange, such as the NASDAQ or the Silicon Valley Long Term stock exchange, or even multi-list the WUaS Corp (and regarding the Academic Press at WUaS in 7159 living languages with machine and human translation, and the WUaS Educational Services' Stores both in all 200 countries)?



B 1
... and interoperate effectively with our 1st World University and School wing with its US federal and state of CA TAX EXEMPT World Univ & Sch LEGAL entities - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/ - and see too - https://app.candid.org/profile/9121509/world-university-and-school-27-3105368? 




B 2
And how might the #GrowWithGoogleWUaS program for World Univ & Sch WUaS potentially help with coding these 2 WUaS wings especially initially? 




C c

And how best to grow an engaged and engaging WUaS wiki-teaching and wiki-learning community - with wiki-teachers and wiki-learners teaching and learning in any of these subjects - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects  or beginning new wiki subjects (first in English but then in all 200 countries' main languages, and then for speakers of all 7159 living languages to do this, in all these languages, and again with wiki-subjects one can create ... for example about what one loves to do, teach or learn about ) - and both online with a 2D-3D computer screen & in our homes in a developing realistic virtual earth in digital glasses and similar hardware AND especially in WUaS Multimedia Rooms (in our homes and which we create or eventually are able to purchase), a WUaS Hospital Multimedia Room, & at the WUaS Academic Medical Center, (eg out of 670 Ridgecrest Rd, Canyon 94516 potentially too)?  And see: "Google Earth in an Immersive Meeting Room" 
https://youtu.be/KjUHngd5fDk - AND for N-Dimensional developments & developing.




All the best, abolition-ally (a best STEAM Creative Commons' licensed OpenCourseWare wiki @WorldUnivAndSch #WUaSabolition movement continues to grow to protect people ... https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2025/10/eagle-aquila-world-university-and.html

Muscle wasting aging reversal naturally - and How to develop with #YogaAsana for 80 & 90 year olds esp in #RealisticVirtualEarthForMolecules & to combine with Yoga-informed gene drug therapies ? -


Incredible: A response to how #ReverseAging of #MuscleWasting from #DukeUniversityNUS :
Scientists discover #WhyExerciseReversesMuscleAging | #ScienceDaily
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/06/260623014026.htm

Researchers have uncovered a molecular “switch” that helps explain why exercise keeps aging muscles healthy. By reducing levels of a gene called DEAF1, physical activity allows older muscles to clear out damage, repair themselves, and maintain strength.

Tony Blair

Tony Blair Institute for Global Change

@InstituteGC


How can governments meet rising public expectations in the Age of AI?

In his new article, originally published in The Jakarta Post (@jakpost), Tony Blair argues that technology should be used not just to improve public services, but to fundamentally reimagine how governments deliver for citizens.

Read the full article: https://institute.global/insights/tech-and-digitalisation/indonesia-reimagining-the-state

https://x.com/InstituteGC/status/2074878983733235977




What is the age of AI compared with the information age in the network society? 
"shifts value to automated creation and machine-assisted decision-making" 


What is the age of AI compared with the information age per UC Berkeley's Manuel Castells?
""age of AI" is viewed not as a separate era, but as the algorithmic evolution and maturation of the Network Society"




Castells - 
What is the age of AI compared with the information age per UC Berkeley's Manuel Castells?



In UC Berkeley sociologist Manuel Castells’ framework, the Information Age marks a structural transition from industrialism to "informationalism," where power and social structures are defined by decentralized global networks. The "age of AI" is viewed not as a separate era, but as the algorithmic evolution and maturation of the Network Society. [1, 2, 3]
While his foundational The Rise of the Network Society trilogy primarily focused on human-operated digital networks, Castells notes that AI represents a massive shift. Instead of simply connecting people and passing information, artificial intelligence actively shapes reality through autonomous algorithms, generating culture, defining information access, and fueling a crisis of legitimacy in political and media landscapes. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
If you want, let me know:
  • Are you looking into the economic impacts (like labor/capital shifts) or the cultural impacts (like truth and fake media)?
  • Do you want to discuss specific algorithmic power in the context of Communication Power?

What is the age of AI compared with the information age in the network society? 

The Age of AI represents a structural shift from the Information Age. While the Information Age democratized access to data, AI 
. In the network society, AI transitions networks from passive conduits of information into active algorithmic curators of social and economic life. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
The Information Age vs. The Age of AI
  • The Information Age (c. 1950s–2010s): This era was defined by the abundance of information. Driven by the internet and personal computers, it democratized access to data, allowing humans to act as synthesizers who transformed information into knowledge. [1, 2, 3]
  • The Age of AI (Emerging Era): This era is defined by the abundance of creation and autonomous processing. AI shatters the Information Age equilibrium, as algorithms now autonomously generate culture, predict outcomes, and synthesize data—shifting the human role to one of oversight, strategy, and deep synthesis. [1, 2, 3, 4]
AI's Impact on the Network Society
Sociologist Manuel Castells defined the Network Society as an era where global society is structured around informational networks and "spaces of flows" (e.g., capital, information, media) rather than traditional borders or mechanical production. [1, 2, 3]
  • From Information to Algorithmic Informationalism: In Castells' traditional network theory, human or corporate actors build and leverage networks to gain power and productivity. In the Age of AI, the infrastructure of the network society is increasingly governed by autonomous algorithms. [1, 2, 3]
  • Mediated Reality: AI systems don't just transmit data; they actively filter, generate, and govern what is visible and valuable, creating a new layer of mediation between humans. [1, 2]
  • Network Nodes: Developers, platform-based subcultures, and user collectives form new community layers entirely structured around AI infrastructure. [1]
The primary scarcity in the network society is no longer information—it is human attention and trusted, verified human connections in a digital ecosystem filled with AI-generated outputs. [1, 2]
If you want to explore this topic further, let me know if you would like to discuss:
  • How AI affects specific industries like education, media, or law
  • The societal consequences of algorithmic bias and misinformation
  • The transition from a network society to an AI society theory
