Why is AI moving so fast? AI is more than software – there are many world views of AI.
At our Wicked Wednesday meeting, where we craft the agenda of MondayLive, much of the discussion was about the speed at which AI is reshaping everything we do. What usually took weeks, months, and years was happening between meetings. Much of the meeting was about what had changed since the last meeting.
In our meeting, the discussion turned to the power of AI to translate spoken languages in near real-time and what evolves is transformation inside that translation, Ajit post. Helps us understand

Background
Seeing vibecoding as proposed by Andrej Karpathy – a developer asked me – How come AI is AI moving so fast?
My response is
AI is more than software. Its more interesting to understand the various worldviews of AI – than see it as software alone.
The German word for worldview is Weltanschauung. It combines Welt (world) and Anschauung (view or perception), and it’s often used in philosophy to describe a comprehensive perspective on the world, including values, beliefs, and assumptions.
I think, to really understand AI, you need to understand the AI Weltanschauungs
There is a Sociocultural Mirror?
LLM as a Sociocultural Mirror
In this view, because LLMs are trained on human language, they reflect (and amplify) the values, biases, knowledge, and quirks of the data they’re fed.This view is useful for analyzing culture, discourse, ideology—but also a source of ethical concerns. Timnit Gebru, Margaret Mitchell, Emily Bender and other critics of current AI on the basis of bias, ethics, and fairness in LLMs (Stochastic Parrots paper) are proponents of this model-
I wonder how the Sociocultural Mirror might interact with the culture of Ontology and Context in System-of-Systems Interoperability.

I welcome you to access the folder that contains documents that explore the philosophical and societal implications of adapting to new technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), in the context of Building Automation Systems (BAS), Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC), and engineering within higher education facilities management. These documents were generated using AI tools based on the prompt I provided, which addressed concerns about skill loss and the broader societal impact of technological advancements. Here are the key themes discussed in the folder:
Remember, Faster Faster spells Disaster, but it is the only way we learn our limits.
