The preservation of the planet our greatest interest? May a politician who is taken seriously behave as popupists sometimes do? So far from home - in China - I dream away,  thinking about Holland, but now from my new Chinese perspective. My hosts break through my train of thoughts. They are fortunately …

Many attempts have been made to build an artificial brain. This paper aims to contribute to the conceptualization of an artificial learning system that functionally resembles an organic brain in a number of important neuropsychological aspects. Probably the techniques (algorithms) required are already …

Technology has come through code in the linguistic domain (programming language), which means that  there are opportunities for applied psychologists to help develop technology that contributes to an inclusive society. If this environment is optimally designed, people will become the best they can be …

Since the emergence of modern man some 200,000 years ago, people and technologyhave been inextricably linked to each other. However, unlike traditional technology -such as leverage (and derivative applications such as hammers, wheels and crankshafts),and control of fire - smart technology is equipped …

Our construction starts with an egg cell and a sperm cell that is 83,000 times smaller (in this phase the female is certainly cooperative). The 2 cells double, and double, 47 times (247) resulting in the 140.737 billion (1.4 * 1014) complex …
