New engineering efforts at the Iowa State and Kansas State Universities are creating buildings adept at withstanding the effects of wind – not just through designing stronger structural systems, but by enabling the buildings to change their shape to adapt to changing wind conditions. ENGINEERING – AN OVERVIEW. THE TROUBLE WITH WIND.

I should say at the outset that I’m going to focus on the big picture of what’s going on—and while I’ll mention some engineering details, I won’t get deeply into them. Then we might make a mathematical guess, like that perhaps we should use a straight line as a model: We could pick different straight lines.

The results (which ultimately rely on all sorts of specific engineering) are remarkably “human like”. And it turns out that this is part of a circle of rather deep—and at first surprising—ideas that I believe are crucial to thinking about the AI future.
