TEACHING HUMAN VALUES TO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCES
The primary focus of the new center is to ensure that AI systems are beneficial to humans, said Stuart Russell, a Berkeley professor of electrical engineering and computer science. The center will work on ways to guarantee that the AI systems of the future, which may be entrusted with control of critical infrastructure and may provide essential services to billions of people, will act in a manner that is aligned with human values. “Systems are already being fielded in society,” Selman said. “We must make sure robotic systems
actually know about human ethics and human values.” Much of Selman’s research is in the area of computer science called “decision theory.” He recently worked on a project funded by Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk to make self-driving cars safer, and that includes problems in decision- making. The car must decide if it’s worth the risk to pass the slow-moving car up ahead. Ultimately this could evolve into the moral dilemmas debated by philosophers, like the “Trolley Problem.” A runaway trolley will crash and kill five people, but you can stop it by pushing a man off a bridge so he lands on the tracks, probably killing him in the process. As a less theoretical problem, should your self-driving car be protective of you at the expense of other drivers?
The stakes will be even higher when computers manage air traffic control or the power grid, or make medical decisions in hospitals.
Halpern also works with decision theory. Typically, when making a decision, there is uncertainty about what will happen, he points out. How many people may die in the trolley crash? How seriously will the guy on the tracks be injured? One solution to uncertainty is to have more data, he noted, and part of the answer lies in giving computers access to Big Data. “If you have lots of data you can estimate the probabilities well and get a much better handle on uncertainty,” he explained. Some of that may be data on human behavior: Russell has suggested robots should learn about human decision-making by observing human activity.
“As we go into the world with massive AI and robots,” Halpern concluded, “how should we prepare ourselves?”

BHARAT PE MAAN KARO
Kuch karo ya na karo,
Bharat pe maan karo,
Ganga k jaal ka samaan karo,
Narmada ka bi maan karo,
Haridwar pe bhakti karo,
Golden temple me apne kasht ko haro…
Kuch karo ya na karo,
Bharat pe maan karo,
Himalaya ki unchai pe tirange ka samaan karo,
Chand tak pauch jau par dil bharat k naam karo,
Taj-mahal se pyar karo,
Kashmir me swarg k darshan karo,
Kuch karo ya na karo,
Bharat pe maan karo…

QUICKEST ROAD TO SUCCESS
“The quickest road to success is to possess an attitude toward failure of ‘no fear.’ ”
They’re veterans of failure. The prevailing school of thought in progressive companies—such as Intuit, General Electric, Corning & Virgin Atlantic—is that great success depends on great risk, & failure is simply a common byproduct. Executives of such organizations don’t mourn their mistakes but instead parlay them into future gains.“The quickest road to success is to possess an attitude toward failure of ‘no fear,’ ” says Heath. “To do their work well, to be successful & to keep their companies competitive, leaders and workers on the front lines need to stick their necks out a mile every day.
They have to deliver risky, edgy, breakthrough ideas, plans, presentations, advice, technology, products, leadership, bills and more. And they have to deliver all this fearlessly—without any fear whatsoever of failure, rejection or punishment.”

NAA JANE KYU?
Do mulk lad rahe hai apas naa jane kyu!,
Ye joo sarhad bani hai beech me naa jane kyu?.
Kyu? kaa jawab to bas itna lagta hai ki,
koi hai dusra saitan joo lada raha naa jane kyu?.
Vo sarahad nahi hai saitan kaa jaal hai,
or hum log naa jane Phas rahe Kyu?.
Saitan vo apne aap ko khuda ke bande kahlata hai,
to phir kaam aatankwadi wale kyu?.
Aee pak mulk to kashmir chahta hai,
sharaft se maag kar to dhekho ye khun kharaba kyu?.
Ye kashmir kya hindustan tumhara hai,
to isme dono deshso ke beto ka balidan kyu?.
Pakistan hum aye befiker or tum yaha ,
tode de in sharhado to mil kar hum na kyu?.
Idd hum manaye or diwali tum,
phir dhekh ye jamana jalle kyu?
Aatankwad ko jaad se ukhaad pheke,
dono mulko ki maa, behen, biwi roe kyu?
Sharhad na rahegi na rahege kaite,
aoo mill baat ke sare shukh or dhuk baate na kyu?
Jo hua vo sahi nahi per abb acchi suruwat to karni hogi,
l bas ab hamari nahi aatank ki bari bass
yahi dono desho samajhte nahi kyu?
Or naa khun bhaiga na becche gi lasse,
abb puchna band karo tumhe malum hai kyu.

BEGINNING OF NEW DAY
Every day is a beginning, a new chance, new opportunity. Get organized for the tasks. You have to complete today, and face the day as something new without the weight of the past.
If you had a bad day the day before, leave that behind you. Focus on a new intend. How can you make today better? How can you fix any mistake or avoid situations that made the previous day bad? We all have things from the previous day. We have to continue working on or finish. When you pick up the project from the day before, treat it fresh because today is new day.
We can find a new hope and we can learn something a new in everyday so I say,” New day, new hope, new life”
Person has opportunity to love and believe, accept and start, dream and enjoy. Don’t postpone your happiness for tomorrow. Happiness is really a more important part of a meaningful life.
You will speak lines to yourself every morning:
1. I am the best.
2. I can do it.
3. God is always with me.
4. I am a winner.
5. Today is my day. (Source: APJ Abdul Kalam)
