I cant wait to see what kind of crazy simulations we can create in 20 years from now
Bots gets even verified now?
@@markmuller7962I mean there aren’t many comments, and no comment like this one, so just a guy with a lewd pic it seems.
@ficolas2 She’s a famous one, the one of the UwU meme but the channel is empty which looks sus to me
This type of simulations may actually save lives!
Good that Ai isn’t just used to destoy lives
If there isn’t an exorbitant licensing or consulting fee, then sure.
@@user-wq9mw2xz3j He said it wasn’t AI
Until a ” bad actor” steps in burns the forest on purpose in a helicopter. In Canada this may have happened. Just saying…
@DavidD03820 someone maliciously burned a forest or used an AI to map out the most effective way to burn a forest?
What a time to be alive!
Partner this with AI to find the best way to put out forest fire.
This in games when?
Fire is part of the forest life, it’s been “built” with fire since the dawn of time, without fire, no forest can grow, check it out it’s very instructive !
What you’re saying is only half the picture. The problem with this kind of ignorant statement is that people draw the conclusion that fire management is unneeded or some other likewise nonsense. A lot of us live in semi rural and rural areas in Australia and I’m sure there’s people in California in a similar situation. The bush is getting drier and drier thanks to climate change, it makes the fires far more intense and more frequent. At the end of the day, people die in wild fires, homes are lost. There are areas around us that have still not recovered from the 2019 bush fires, where usually we’d expect to see these places recovered in a year.
Love this research!
Honestly, I’m so thankful for all the animals and people this simulation may save. I’ll hold my papers close because every once in a while, they mean something.
Being able to simulate the problem may lead to more innovative methods of managing wild fires.
Im waiting 10 years because in 10 years this tech may be in video games
But what about pyromaniacs getting this tool?
@dgeorgaras4444 i think pyromaniacs should get this tool as its a method to use fire to burn stuff virtually attach this to vr headset and a game built arounf it and we can have the pyromaniacs be pyromaniacs virtually
@dgeorgaras4444 also its better if pyromaniacs get this tool as most are not targeting people and mozt pyro victims are not on purpose allota the time by accident as pyros generally are not serial killers so if they have access to this tool you would probably see less pyro deatha as pyros could use this to reduce the harm of being a pyro by simulating there fire to reduce human casualties which for most pyros are unwanted
Btw im a pyro i got caught starting forest fires but have never tried to off someone with a fire i have nearly accidentally harmed people with my fires but ive never killed or wanted to
If I made something with this it would be a software using GIS world map data and a few other data sets about biomes around the world and what type of plants and animals are there and then use ai to predict the best way to deal with fires and best solutions to prevent fires form happening each specific to its own environment. What a time to be alive
I’m just waiting for asimov’s psycohistory sims
Love your energy in these videos
Are they simulating the flow of the wind in the fire sims? I bet if they replicated the wind in the real life experiment the sim would replicate perfectly
How long until this tech is in video games probably still a decade out lol space engineers is only now going to implement water simulation in space engineers 2 i think once graphics gets “solved” we will see more advances in games using phisics and tech like this
All the Australians need to do to prevent fires is to hire the Finnish to rake the forests.
Oh my 😱
We’ve been doing this in Minecraft for years.
Hell yeah!
As an aspiring arborist there is so many simulation tools that could help me in the future. Cool stuff all around
But can it simulate fire with 5 fingers? 😅
