- La intel·ligència artificial i les noves tecnologies emergents, capaces d’oferir solucions reals a problemes que fins fa poc semblaven inabastables.
- El jovent que tenim a les escoles, amb talent, capacitat crítica i una sorprenent voluntat de posar el coneixement al servei de la societat.
M’agradaria personalitzar aquesta esperança en la figura de Faustino Oro, un 013 que, gràcies a l’entrenament amb motors d’anàlisi i al seu arrelament a Badalona, està experimentant una progressió extraordinària en el món dels escacs. El seu cas exemplifica com la combinació de tecnologia, esforç i entorns educatius estimulants pot accelerar el desenvolupament del talent i obrir noves perspectives de futur.
Aquests dies, el Sr. Oro participa en el torneig Tata Steel B, considerat el Wimbledon dels escacs, des d'aquí podem seguir els seus resultats. Molta força, Faustino !!
TRASCRIPCIÓ DE LA LECTURA DEL MARCEL:
ResponEliminaOne of the most difficult cancers to treat is pancreatic cancer. This is partly because it involves doctors trying to kill all the diseased cells while sparing as many healthy ones as possible, and the pancreas, rather than being in a fixed position, moves around the abdominal area, and sometimes it gets obscured by other organs.
Rishab Jain, an American boy from Portland, Oregon in the USA, was only 13 (zerteen) when he developed an algorithm that uses artificial intelligence to accurately locate and track the pancreas. He was inspired by the death of a family friend to cancer, and when he heard about the low survival rate for patients with pancreatic cancer, he decided he wanted to do something about it. His algorithm won the top prize in a competition called the Discovery Education z3M Young Scientist Challenge.
Aged only 14, he was named America’s top young scientist and was included in the Thime magazine's influential teens list. With the money he won from the competition, he set up a non-profit organization to promote STEM subjects among disadvantaged children and raise awareness of pancreatic cancer. He says he’ll also put some of the money towards a college fund, so he can study to become either a biomedical engineer or a doctor.
