The world is poorly designed. But copying nature helps. 

This is underrated

And then we exist to take those ideas and copyright it lol!!!

So true.

September 2020: nature has evolved and just copystriked humanity

we should mimic that too... discovery is not creation, so the IP is not theirs either. Its Free -for the survival and enhancement of life (including humans) and not something to be made a profit from. The last concept (of profit) is Never found in nature.

Biomimicry is actually the origin of architecture. Simple things like geometric tesselations and fractal geometries are derived from nature

No, not everything. The design of living things has optimized over millions of years of evolution, which is a natural process. It has incredible inefficiencies because of this. Looking for inspiration in biology doesn’t mean all the answers are in biology. AI is a great example. A neural network is a simulation of a human brain, but it does many things better, and many things worse.

Goes for creative/artistic pursuits too.

Jaywin Varghese It is believed that the idea for the wheel came when our ancestors observed a dung bug pushing it's circular ball of feces around. So the originator of the wheel, the sphere might very well be based on a design from the animal Kingdom.

Inspecktor F I don’t know how you could translate the rapid vibration/flapping of a dragonfly’s wings into the spinning rotor of a helicopter, it just doesn’t make any sense.

lol

Drunken Sailor someone said it. We have a beautiful world if only we would look after it.

That's because they are not designed sustainably, so not designed well.

It's either this or Brave New World. Accept it

Take it or leave it or fall of a map

And also creative designs are not implimented to their most efficient form all the time to cut costs or for lack thereof, leaving disarray behind.

Since nature is designed by a creator, so they studying nature is learning from the the creator himself.

The one that shook me most was the one about duck and cover and nuclear war

Tell me how that goes. Please?

Well it went really well, it continued to become a 25 page publication in the elite Journal: Wireless Networks and is currently referenced by more than a dozen other research journals, indicating its relevance. Makes me proud :) if you wanna know more let me know

Can you describe the hard-to-solve problem? Also, does your genetic algorithm work anything like a neural network, using gradient descent, backpropagation, etc.? (Recently learned concepts thanks to 3B1B)

Hi David, this might be long so enjoy, but you asked :) So Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are ad-hoc networks in which sensors, that are designed to relay data back to sink nodes and/or Base Stations, are deployed in an area and may be configured in real time. Sensors, however, have limited energy supplies and are often left untouched after deployment, thus making battery replacement very difficult or even impossible. Therefore, energy should be efficiently conserved to extend the WSNs lifetime. One of the existing solutions is to deploy multiple sinks, more capable nodes in comparison to sensors, in the network to increase the coverage area and shorten the communication distance between sensors and sinks. However, this raises the issue concerning which sensors should bind to which sinks in order to avoid overloading particular sinks. I devise a Genetic Algorithm (GA) to solve the problem of balancing the load of sensors amongst sinks in a multi-sink WSN, while ensuring that the best routes to sinks are found for the sensors that cannot directly reach a sink. The results are very promising. The problem is hard to solve in real-time because there can be millions of binding combinations so we use a GA basically to map random possible solutions into what would function like a DNA strand (an Array) and we run these strands in multiple generations of breading (crossover and mutation) to produce new possibly stronger offspring until we reach a child that is fit enough to be a solution (based on a fitness function). My GA itself is tailored for this problem in WSNs but some of its main concepts can be mapped ofcourse to neural networks, and im assuming it might be already used in places there. Hope that answers some of your question

Matt, thanks for the thorough response and great explanation. Very cool work!

kostasz7z , right on the spot, man.

Well if you think about it you cant really be that dense or that much of a moron by yourself. It defies logic. By Occam's razor the most reaosnable explanation is that atheists are getting supernatural help to be so dense and morons. The Bible explains this by saying that God will send a powerful delusion so that they believe a lie. They are people who are in love with sin and the lie is the big bang and evolution. Atheists CANNOT see the truth. They cant. They are blinded by God. How dumb can you be to accpet that everything came from nothing 14 billion years ago ? How dumb can you be to not see the blatant engineering of DNA ? Ho dumb can you be to accept the idea that everything is subjective/relative when that claim is an objective/absolute claim that contradicts itself ? Honestly they re dumb beyond belief. The source of this stupidity MUST be supernatural.

KraveNPLUR For our inventions to go through trial and error, a few things need to be in place: An initial idea A design Observation and research on that design to make gradual improvements With that said, why is it impossible to believe the universe was created? If everything in existence just 'happened' then what started it? What was there to dictate a good idea from a bad one? Why does Earth itself, the animals and even the universe have set roles and follow specific, observable patterns? We give humans credit for coming up with great inventions, so why is it a problem to believe there is a 'Great Inventor' of the whole universe?

eXtremeAzure I think that there’s still way more errors than successes in nature so that draws me away from believing there is a creator. BUT! Part of me still believes there’s something greater out there, if anything I believe “God” simply rolled the dice with creation and let everything unfold(evolution) our own species has more errors than successes, but maybe it’s cause the dice is still rolling 😉

Mal Dibujante Call me whatever you want, but I don't see you offering a valid response to prove me wrong. 😉

f89fiadsuofijoadsioj - And the evidence of this is to be found where, exactly?

Evolution isn’t real

Not by accident, but through millions of years of evolution

poppet pala if you were only able to ruin the genes How well would you go? As that is the basics of the mechanism that I used for evolution

QuantumFrost If a gene was 'ruined', how do you expect the creature it belonged to to be more fit than another? And if that animal is less fit, it obviously won't be able to compete with animals with more fit genes. This is evolution.

Bose-Einstein some mutations can't be selected as their effect is so small My point still stands that there will never be a mutation supporting the idea that a microbe can or ever will turn into a human given any time

QuantumFrost Well, it's a good thing no one has ever said a microbe can turn into a human, huh? We're colonies composed of many dozens of seperate microbes, all with a specific role to play.

Bose-Einstein you clearly don't know how evolution is meant to work, do you? It claims that a single cell, a microbe, mutated (very unrealistic mechanism) into all the organisms today over millions of years

We are far from understanding all natural systems

We always think we are superior to nature.

True, but it still looks like a mess. But I bet it is more habitable than most cities.

*whispers* it’s free real estate

We're already doing that but progress is always slow. We have biodegradable plastics, enzymatic plastics which consume themselves and feed organisms in the air, soil or plankton when it ends up in the ocean, instead of chemical air cleaners we use bacteria, etc. The major push only comes when corporations realize that these are actually cheaper than what they produce now! Like nature we need to start low. First we had the elements, now we're moving up to organisms. Worms are already being researched as natural alternatives to pesticides and stag beetles are being linked to controllers so they can be used as drones. We're moving incredibly fast when it comes to biotech because we already have so much biological knowledge and unlike technology it's readily available. In about 20 years it won't be an exception that people go to the woods when they need something instead of the supermarkets. I did this myself to get worms for a compost bin, which is not completely the same but you know.

Isn't that what we already know about: recycling? Take the old material and put it into the new one. Problem is, that some of the materials we use have a really difficult way to recycle them. Not everything is as simple as throwing in the junk into a machine and getting ingots of usable material.

Exactly, which is why we're looking for biological alternatives. Artificial products simply aren't good for our planet because they are artificial, when they are biological there is always a solution to getting rid of them. I know not everything can be 100% biological but we can also engineer organisms to take care of the artificial objects for us, bacteria have been created that can actually digest plastics and their waste is water. The only problem is business aka money: generally no one is interested in these biological processes because trash in itself is a big business. It really boggles my mind.

What would "biological" even be supposed to mean though? What are "artificial" things? When it comes back to it - literally every single thing is renewable. Yes: both plant matter, and uranium are renewable. Plant matter takes maybe a year to "remake", while uranium is closer to "lifetime of the universe" in terms of time to remake it. Plastics are commonly created from petroleum(the same thing that's made into the combustion fuel). Petroleum(along with other fuel sources like coal, peat etc.) is formed from organic matter that "ferments" without oxygen. Many common plastics are very easy to recycle. My teacher explained to me the process of how they recycle ABS(a kind of plastic), and he(along with another teacher from the Plastics Faculty) also told me that plastic bottles and plastic foil are similarly easy to recycle. You are correct that people care about money the most. In Germany in shops they have a deposit on(I think) all the packaging. I know for sure that fluid containers from plastic, glass, metal, all have a deposit. Then you just go to the store, give them the container, and get your money back(or deduction from your purchase). Plus there are all the machines that accept containers and give back money. You must remember though, that "money" isn't something magical. Money is primarily a legal way, in which we can more easily exchange various goods and services. It's easier to trade: A glass for a dollar, then trade a lot of dollars for cleaning the room, than it is to trade: A bunch of glasses for cleaning the room.

Germany is really for doing that because they know money is always on people's minds. As people care less about taking responsibility they need to be motivated in another way, money is somewhat the only way to do that nowadays since religion is basically bankrupt, moral values are stupendously low and frankly - most people care more about their screens than the real world. As for your question, artificial means "mand made". A spoon is artificial, so is paper, plastics too. Everything else is biological and therefor there is always a solution for it to be recycled one way or another by our planet. Some things are recycled more easily than others, I'm sure you know this too. maybe better than I do. But we also both know that lot of plastics ends up being burned because until now we weren't looking for any other solution. Then there's all the plastic that goes around the world, riding the waves of the oceans. If we actually had those bacteria, multiplied them vastly and introduced them to the waters, or created plankton that could eat microplastics without introducing toxics into the food chain, we would already have reached a certain milestone. The problem is not that plastic can be recycled, the problem is that most people don't care about taking the right precautions to recycle materials properly. Like we find pottery from ancient civilizations we will surely find back plastic bottles and whatnot in the future. With this idea in mind we have to find ways to actually terminate that being a possible outcome.

I most certainly do not. Copyright law is a bad enough rats nest as is.

Great idea! Every time a natural concept is used, a tree is planted or something

Nature does not mind sharing. Sharing is caring.

Monkey and where would we be as a world today. keep everything except technology...u answer in your own head

Well we will have to pay so much

Josh Willis im pretty sure her point was just that. Designers should start looking at nature for inspiration. I never heard her saying that we MUST copy it to the T.

India does that alot.

The only problem is dead leaves

I suppose that's one way to look at it. In terms of practical results there's not a lot of difference between (a) running a massive simulation of many different possibilities and iteratively selecting the most effective ones, and (b) trying many different possibilities in reality and iteratively retaining the most effective ones. As an aside, a lot of modern software is based on evolutionary principles for that reason. Things like phone routing networks and traffic control systems tend to use evolutionary algorithms. They're just such an effective approach for finding effective solutions in massive possibility spaces.

@@antenerokent492 We're more like a program with poor code that's using up more system resources than would be ideal, IMO.

Nature is not perfectly designed, it is selectively designed. Every creature has flaws which are hard built into it by nature. Richard Dawkins has some good videos on this. For example, there is an artery which stretches over the heart instead of going directly to its location because once upon a time, as fish, our ancestors had a different body structure and that artery stayed on its course over many millions of years of evolution.
