 I have the opportunity to announce, as a Producer and the Scriptwriter of four other screenplays, about our new documentary 'Guns, Laws, and Lives'. On May 20,1999, the then U.S. President Clinton passed through the Senate several important proposals to close the loopholes in U.S. gun laws. They wrote: "There are too many loopholes in the gun control laws we have. Today's vote is a step toward closing them". We are now well over 20 years further and it has always been my wish to finish a documentary about guns, the effects of guns on a society, the apparent misuse, the trends, and the rationale to promote a tool designed to be operated by professionals.
The pre-production "Guns, Laws, and Lives" has been kicked off this month and that requires for the team hours of research, telephone calls, speaking with experts (thanks Wil), and numerous details to be kept well-coordinated. With every documentary I get the question, aren't there enough programs and other documentaries out there? I cannot agree more, there are excellent documentaries about guns in correlation to violence, the political and social considerations of allowing guns, and the list goes on. Indeed, there seems to be no shortage in Western countries of watching and discussing guns in relation to the disasters when viewing the horrifying mass killings. The documentary, "Guns, laws, and Lives" finds the underlying cause of allowing guns to be operated by civilians and the public perception that some continents on this planet seem to spin out of control of gun ownership. Is it truly that bad, or are we deceiving ourselves? Watch and follow our work at the Guns, Laws, and Lives PRE-PRODUCTION reel site.

Update: van Doorn Producties probeerden via verschillende wegen THEMATIC AI (TAI) te stoppen met het publiceren van AV materialen, door foute aangiftes in te dienen bij Youtube. De video sharing maatschappij nam bij voorbaat de actie om het materiaal te verwijderen. Door TAI's succesvolle acties heeft Youtube, TAI in het gelijk gesteld. Het intellectuele werk, bewezen door ons script ontwerp, de ideeen en publicaties blijven eigendom van TAI. +++ Tuesday, September 19th, 2023 at 09:00 Beste THEMATIC AI Europe, We hebben je verweer verwerkt volgens de bepalingen van de Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

THEMATIC AI is een voorstander van een robuust rechtssysteem. Een rechtssysteem dat bedrijven, instellingen en individuen beschermen tegen misbruik van copyright- en beeldmateriaal dat vallen onder het auteursrecht. Voor onze productie van documentaires is een ingewikkeld systeem in plaats om alle partijen te schermen tegen beloftes en beweringen die mogelijk opduiken voor, tijdens, en na een aflevering. Een veel voorkomende actie is van individuen die menen aanspraak te kunnen maken op auteursrechten terwijl die duidelijk vastliggen. THEMATIC AI start altijd met het tekenen van een NDA of een geheimhoudingsovereenkomst. Daarna start een standaard uitwisseling met de groep of persoon die een contract aangaan met THEMATIC AI. Een mooi voorbeeld op welke manier THEMATIC AI of een gevolmachtigde werkt: ZZZ Beste Raymund, Wat mij betreft is het geen enkel probleem dat jullie houder zijn en blijven van het materiaal. Ik zie graag de geheimhoudingsovereenkomst tegemoet! Met vriendelijke groet, [GEEN DETAILS: PRIVACY] Op di 31 jan. 2023 om 15:41 schreef Raymund K.D. Kho <email>: Beste [PRIVACY], Hartelijk dank voor het sturen van de offerte. Ik heb de details doorgenomen echter wij zijn het productie bedrijf en blijven houder van alle materialen die wij delen met anderen. Daarnaast is de standaard aanpak om een geheimhoudingsovereenkomst te onderteken, dit ter bescherming van onze gegevens die wij delen met free-lancers. Het is aan jezelf om verder te gaan. Zo ja dan volgt een PDF bestand met het verzoek deze te onderteken. Daarna kunnen wij het script en storyboard delen. Met vriendelijke groet, Raymund K.D. Kho ZZZ Takedown acties hebben geen zin. Raymund Kho Directeur, THEMATIC AI B.V.  Ik heb names THEMATIC AI B.V, en een stagiaire, aangiftes gedaan tegen een aantal freelanceschrijvers, dus geen journalisten, en een groep van Twittergebruikers voor het beledigen van onze goede naam. Die aangiftes zijn succesvol ingediend en zodanig ook geaccepteerd door de Politie en Het OM. We zijn uitermate blij over de professionele behandeling door de politie. Die hebben de aangiftes voor ons vastgelegd als slachtoffers en onschuldige medestanders van oude vetes die ver voor onze tijd hebben plaatsgevonden.
--Raymund.   The second part of the Ethika AI development is all about disinformation. But before I launch a whole new chapter about disinformation, let me break this down into sub chapters. The future of AI is not built on sophisticated coding routines, the future of AI is inclusive. Inclusive as in a symphony between computer components, advanced coding routines, arranged and perfected through human ingenuity. At THEMATIC AI we define our AI, Ethika AI, as an Inclusive AI system that seamlessly combines safety, security, and versatility. I made the introduction about our design decision to focus on safety and security, effectively bypassing public concern about AI behavior without human oversight. Let me explain versatility as the architects of Ethika AI and why I use the term Inclusive AI.   To fully appreciate and make use of AI, such a system would factor in the capabilities of computer components, the digital pathways to align and optimize the stream of data between components and computations with reverse feedback of combined data output and so on.  With the recent ChatGPT v4 release to the public, its data collection is from large databases stored in cloud server pools. AI data research is very much in the stage, and continues rightly, to improve accuracy. This refinement, even with excellent optimizing coding structures, is a huge and time-consuming task. Industry groups with a focus on research, communications, data investigations or narrow data retrieval requirements do not benefit from this large data pool. The bulk of cloud data might be stored somewhere but is difficult to pinpoint because of the complexity and interconnection with too many data access points. In other words: the term making sense out of raw data is applied here. In our design approach to make Ethika AI the most accurate, safe, and versatile system, the AI capabilities are extended by introducing sensors and circuitry with a specific purpose to collect data.  I name the examples of advanced CMOS photocells, environmental sensors, motor components, and semi-conductors to improve accuracy feedback to the AI system. Ethika AI is from start ready to accept industrial data exchange, the same coding-based on Apache's MXNET is easily expanded to cater different industries: from environmental detection to support better modelling and tracking of climate changes, rapid and efficient sampling of disease specimen, monitoring of hazardous environments to conduct and support investigations of (war) crime sites or residential environmental improvements.
The word is versatile, as the architects designed an AI system, Ethika AI, capable of real-time fact-checking its environment to enhance the feedback from Human Experts. An Inclusive AI system capable of matching demanding customer profiles from different industries. PART IIb: Educating the Ethika AI system about Disinformation. In 2019, I was in Hong Kong working on several technology projects just before the city-wide protest started. It was a defining moment for a territory that had seen many difficulties, under the British from 1841, during the Japanese occupation of WWII, and again under the British rule until the formal takeover by China in 1997. Just imagine a Covid lockdown but with the added explosions, noise, police, and citizens fighting for a form of freedom of speech and democratic reforms well known to the rest of the Western world. Hong Kong became a ghost city instead of the vibrant place it was allowed before 1997, and in 2020 the Chinese authorities grabbed the chance to strike down any resistance because of the Covid. No ordinary life was possible from that moment, and most citizens either escaped confinement by leaving the area or were tied to their homes. Employers finally agreed to allow workers to remain at their homes, a very un-Chinese principle, but this was Hong Kong, not an ordinary Asian city but a city that had seen poverty, growth, and prosperity on such a scale to the envy of other Asian countries. Our group made inroads to make the most of the situation by redesigning our projects with the added restriction that going out to test a system would not be possible. Ethika AI was born at that time and required not more than a server environment, some fast laptops, several electronic cameras, and most importantly a bit tinkering of NVIDIA Jetson micro-systems. We understood that complete AI designs would not be feasible, our budget restraints stopped us from installing high performance server pools that could deliver on demand the necessary bandwidth to allow for large library data sets. Today ChatGPT 3 and recently 4 by far surpasses ChatGPT in its original form with its advanced reasoning capabilities. We decided to focus on safety and alignment to produce relevant output without omitting the required step of human feedback to train Ethika AI. In comparison to OPENAI's ChatGPT, our team never left the human element of safety and security. It is Ethika AI's strongest card, to be deployed in any industry with the safety and security of human feedback trained in the AI model, all custom tailored. Unlike competitors we have the advantage of both understanding electronics and AI programming to secure a well-balanced AI model like in Ethika AI. Back in the Netherlands, we founded THEMATIC AI limited to enable further development of the Ethika AI system. By now we had figured out that several wearable biosensors (WBSs) could be smartly placed to allow for greater feedback of human input to train Ethika AI. While Ethika AI core coding is based on Apache's MXNET, the architecture is extremely flexible to port and align micro-device sensors to train the AI model to a level of unseen refinement. Ethika AI first stores the human feedback from eye-contact tracking, hand mouse movement tracking, and face expression in any session with a Human Expert. The data feeds are then processed according to standard AI modelling rules but iterate upon each session in a combination of stored mimic and new human feedback from different Human Experts. Human Experts play a pivotal role in the accuracy and acceptance of content, text, graphics, movies, or photos. While other AI systems reuse and train by adding filtered data, Ethika AI already bypasses this because the Human Expert inspected the data to form reliable content. The design of the Ethika AI relies on the use of camera input that records in real-time the eyes and facial expressions, and in real-time covers the keyboard with mouse gesture movements.  In this case we use NVIDIA's Face Recognition, Broadcast, Voice Commands, and keyboard mouse input to capture data from the Human Expert. Ethika AI then collects, inspects, and points and clicks from the Human Expert who is actively processing content on the web. This all occurs in real-time, the Human Expert can at any time pause the recordings.  As I explained, we are not only good at designing AI models but have deep knowledge about computer architecture. To power the real-time capture of Human Expert processing of content, we rely on NVIDIA's Jetson series. NEXT: Part II, Catching Disinformation
