#California wildfire | Challenges | Access roads too steep for fire department equipment | Brush fires | Dangerously strong winds for fire fighting planes | Drone interfering with wildfire response hit plane | Dry conditions fueled fires | Dry vegetation primed to burn | Faults on the power grid | Fires fueled by hurricane-force winds | Fire hydrants gone dry | Fast moving flames | Hilly areas | Increasing fire size, frequency, and susceptibility to beetle outbreaks and drought driven mortality | Keeping native biodiversity | Looting | Low water pressure | Managing forests, woodlands, shrublands, and grasslands for broad ecological and societal benefits | Power shutoffs | Ramping up security in areas that have been evacuated | Recoving the remains of people killed | Retardant drop pointless due to heavy winds | Smoke filled canyons | Santa Ana winds | Time it takes for water-dropping helicopter to arrive | Tree limbs hitting electrical wires | Use of air tankers is costly and increasingly ineffective | Utilities sensor network outdated | Water supply systems not built for wildfires on large scale | Wire fault causes a spark | Wires hitting one another | Assets | California National Guard | Curfews | Evacuation bags | Firefighters | Firefighting helicopter | Fire maps | Evacuation zones | Feeding centers | Heavy-lift helicopter | LiDAR technology to create detailed 3D maps of high-risk areas | LAFD (Los Angeles Fire Department) | Los Angeles County Sheriff Department | Los Angeles County Medical Examiner | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration | Recycled water irrigation reservoirs | Satellites for wildfire detection | Sensor network of LAFD | Smoke forecast | Statistics | Beachfront properties destroyed | Death tol | Damage | Economic losses | Expansion of non-native, invasive species | Loss of native vegetation | Structures (home, multifamily residence, outbuilding, vehicle) damaged | California wildfire actions | Animals relocated | Financial recovery programs | Efforts toward wildfire resilience | Evacuation orders | Evacuation warnings | Helicopters dropped water on evacuation routes to help residents escape | Reevaluating wildfire risk management | Schools closed | Schools to be inspected and cleaned outside and in, and their filters must be changed
#A-list celebrity home protector | Burglaries targeting high-end items | Burglary report on Lime Orchard Road | Burglar had smashed glass door of residence | Ransacked home and fled | Couple were not home at the time | Unknown whether any items were taken | Lime Orchard Road is within Hidden Valley gated community of Los Angeles in Beverly Hills | Penelope Cruz, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lawrence, Adele and Katy Perry have purchased homes there, in addition to Kidman and Urban | Kidman and Urban bought their home for $4.7 million in 2008 | 4,100-square-foot, five-bedroom home built in 1965 and sits on 1ΒΌ-acre lot | Property large windows have views of the canyons | Theirs is one of several celebrity properties burglarized in Los Angeles and across country recently | Connected to South American organized-theft rings
#Professional athlete home protector | South American crime rings | Targeting wealthy Southern California neighborhoods for sophisticated home burglaries | Behind burglaries at homes of professional athletes and celebrities | Theft groups conduct extensive research before plotting burglaries | Monitoring target whereabouts and weekly routines via social media | Tracking travel and schedules | Conducting physical surveillance at homes | Attacks staged while targets and their families are away | Robbers aware of where valuables are stored in homes prior to staging break-ins | Burglaries conducted in short amount of time | Bypass alarm systems | Use Wi-Fi jammers to block Wi-Fi connections | Disable devices | Cover security cameras | Obfuscate identities
#Large Language Model (LLM) | Foundational LLM: ex Wikipedia in all its languages fed to LLM one word at a time | LLM is trained to predict the next word most likely to appear in that context | LLM intellugence is based on its ability to predict what comes next in a sentence | LLMs are amazing artifacts, containing a model of all of language, on a scale no human could conceive or visualize | LLMs do not apply any value to information, or truthfulness of sentences and paragraphs they have learned to produce | LLMs are powerful pattern-matching machines but lack human-like understanding, common sense, or ethical reasoning | LLMs produce merely a statistically probable sequence of words based on their training | LLMs are very good at summarizing | Inappropriate use of LLMs as search engines has produced lots of unhappy results | LLM output follows path of most likely words and assembles them into sentences | Pathological liars as a source for information | Incredibly good at turning pre-existing information into words | Give them facts and let them explain or impart them
#Retrieval Augmented Generation. (RAG LLM) | Designed for answering queries in a specific subject, for example, how to operate a particular appliance, tool, or type of machinery | LLM takes as much textual information about subject, user manuals and then pre-process it into small chunks containing few specific facts | When user asks question, software system identifies chunk of text which is most likely to contain answer | Question and answer are then fed to LLM, which generates human-language answer in response to query | Enforcing factualness on LLMs
#Vision-language model (VLM) | Training vision models when labeled data unavailable | Techniques enabling robots to determine appropriate actions in novel situations | LLMs used as visual reasoning coordinators | Using multiple task-specific models
