EducationCan AI Write History As It Actually Happens?…… by operotimi(op): 6:21pm On Dec 02, 2023
Introduction:

History, according to E.H. Carr, is an unending dialogue between the past and the present. Can AI truly dialogue the past and the present together in a proper narrative? I doubt it. In historical narration today, we question whether AI possesses the prowess to document history as it unfolds. While the prospect of Artificial Intelligence seems promising, understanding the inherent challenges sheds light on why AI may struggle to craft a comprehensive historical narrative.

What AI can do:

AI, with its analytical capabilities and vast data processing capacity, can be of immense help to historians. Its ability to sift through vast archives and generate answers based on patterns offers a unique advantage to historians in deep search of information on what has been written and published online, unbeknown to them. But can AI write about history that has not been written before? No. Can AI write a biography of your father? No. Can AI write about the socio-economic and political institutions in your hometown? No. Can AI write about that local market in your hometown? No. If nobody has written about it, AI knows nothing about it. AI lacks the power to provide a nuanced portrayal of historical occurrences as they actually happen.

How does AI work?

AI works by processing vast amounts of data and learning patterns to make predictions or generate outputs. While AI can generate text based on learned patterns, it will struggle with historical writing because it lacks a deep understanding of context and the evolving nature of historical events. Historical writing often requires interpretation and understanding of human experiences, which AI finds challenging due to its reliance on statistical patterns rather than true comprehension. Artificial intelligence (AI), based on its nature, when faced with a paucity of data to scrape online, begins to speculate and assume. Historians don't assume and speculate; Arthur Marwick noted in his work "Nature of History" that history is evidence-based, not speculation. Marwick outlined that the main activity of the historian is the interpretation of primary and secondary evidence before him. The fact is, Gen-Z historians fail to acknowledge that AI is a product of human intelligence and hence works hand in hand with human intelligence. With human intelligence, AI will be in a state of tabula rasa.

The Pitfalls of AI in Historical Writing:

AI lacks the human touch, the empathy required to comprehend emotions and cultural intricacies that shape history. History is not just a sequence of events; it is human experiences, perspectives, and activities — elements that sincerely elude the grasp of even the most advanced AI.

A Note to Gen-Z Historians:
As aspiring historians, Gen-Z stands at the crossroads of tradition and innovation. I once overheard an ignorant 3rd-year history student saying, "I don't need to stress myself with this assignment; AI will do it for me." The fact is AI will do it for you because it has been done before. But how does AI do it for you when it has never been done before? Oh, I remember; it will still do it for you, but this time around, it speculates and assumes. On a good note, embracing AI as a tool rather than a replacement allows for a harmonious collaboration between human insight and technological efficiency.

Conclusions

In the quest for a comprehensive historical record, the interplay between human historians and AI emerges as a dynamic force. The essence of history lies in human experiences, and it is imperative for Gen-Z historians to navigate this synergy judiciously.

InvestmentThe Mystifying Question About Bitcoin by operotimi(op): 2:27pm On Dec 26, 2022
The Mystifying Question about Bitcoin
Following the 2008 Economic Doldrum, the Bitcoin white paper was published in October 2008, less than two months after the biggest financial crash in history. The author named himself Satoshi Nakamoto and explained a couple of points related to this new digital currency called Bitcoin. He stated, that he believed he had found the solution for the biggest issue that we face, a technology that is called blockchain. Also, he explained not only how it works, but that this system has already been created and is running in a software form using the current internet as it’s platform.

But then, this posed a very serious question which makes many ponder � Why now? How come such a serious document was published just after the largest financial crash in history?…Who is Behind this innovation? This questions have become a rhetoric as no plausible answers have been given to the all.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto
Satoshi Nakamoto is an inventor of bitcoin, as well the blockchain technology. All though this might be a false name, this is how he introduced himself to the internet. It is a men’s name. However, it is possible the Satoshi Nakamoto might be a woman. This is one of the biggest mysteries in the technology world. Yet, most people don’t want to know exactly who Satoshi is; nevertheless, they are thankful for the technology he created.

Unfortunately, many people think that because Satoshi Nakamoto has invented Bitcoin and the blockchain technology, he is also the owner of those too. The reality is that Satoshi Nakamoto has no control over the Blockchain—neither bitcoin; therefore, it really doesn’t matter who Satoshi Nakamoto is.

But yeah, we still want to know who is behind the curtains; so, let’s think about it again. Satoshi Nakamoto is reasonably a man or a woman—of course—he could be a couple, a group of people, or even a group of women for all we know. Satoshi Nakamoto might be ten people together, but also could be a massive team of 100 individuals. Satoshi Nakamoto might be a child, or he could be old men. Satoshi Nakamoto might have died right after he released his white paper; therefore, he had no time to show his real face.

I do understand if you are getting bored of these accusations, so let’s begin thinking in a different perspective. Satoshi Nakamoto might not even be human. Well, you might think of me being over the limit. However, it’s just so odd that we couldn’t figure out who Satoshi Nakamoto is in the past decade; not where he resided, but who he is—honestly—we have no idea. Someone might know exactly who he is. However, there is no confirmation that would ever have enough evidence to prove who Satoshi is.

The thing is the blockchain is huge, and it certainly takes months, if not years, to fully understand it’s technical details, and how it fits together. Another thing is that, more and more often, it is said that this technology is just too complex for one man to build. Therefore, there is no way that Satoshi Nakamoto was working on it alone.
This now brings us to the Mystifying Question Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?
Let me hear From your comments ¿I’ll reveal who the Real Satoshi is in my next post.

It is important to note that a good number of those in public higher institution in Nigeria train themselves through school. 

They are also drawn from informal sectors - majorly artisans. Some under parental and guardianship responsibilities witnessed the  unfortunate loss of their parents & guardian jobs. The little money in their saving have now been used for family upkeep and other urgent demand".
