<div>== Bard AI ==<br />
<br />
Bard AI is a large language model chatbot developed by Google AI. It is trained on a massive dataset of text and code, and can generate text, translate languages, write different kinds of creative content, and answer your questions in an informative way.<br />
<br />
Bard is still under development, but it has learned to perform many kinds of tasks, including:<br />
<br />
Following instructions and completing requests thoughtfully<br />
Answering questions in a comprehensive and informative way, even if they are open ended, challenging, or strange<br />
Generating different creative text formats of text content, like poems, code, scripts, musical pieces, email, letters, etc.<br />
== Accuracy ==<br />
<br />
Bard AI is said to be up to 30% more accurate than other chatbots when it comes to math. This means that it can answer your math questions more accurately, and can also generate more creative and informative content that involves math.<br />
<br />
== Availability ==<br />
<br />
Bard AI is currently not available to the public. However, Google is working on making it available in the future.<br />
<br />
== Comparison with ChatGPT ==<br />
<br />
Bard AI and ChatGPT are both large language model chatbots that are trained on a massive dataset of text and code. However, there are some key differences between the two models.<br />
<br />
* Data source: Bard AI is trained on a dataset that includes scientific papers, mathematical expressions, and source code. This gives Bard AI an advantage when it comes to answering questions about these topics. ChatGPT, on the other hand, is trained on a dataset that includes text from the internet, such as news articles and blog posts.<br />
* Accuracy: Bard AI is said to be up to 30% more accurate than ChatGPT when it comes to math. This is because Bard AI has access to more data about math, and it is also able to process this data more efficiently.<br />
* Real-time information: Bard AI has access to real-time information from the internet. This means that it can answer your questions about current events and other topics that are constantly changing. ChatGPT, on the other hand, is only able to access information that was available when it was trained.<br />
Overall, Bard AI is a more powerful and versatile chatbot than ChatGPT. However, ChatGPT is still a capable language model, and it may be a better choice for some tasks.</div>Ikevinaxhttps://ikev.in/w/index.php?title=Bard_AI&diff=546Bard AI2023-09-16T02:47:54Z<p>Ikevinax: </p>

<div>[[File:3d printer.jpg|thumb|right|Creality Ender 3 3D Printer]]<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
A 3D printer is a machine that creates three-dimensional objects by depositing layers of material, one on top of the other. The technology behind 3D printing is known as additive manufacturing, as opposed to subtractive manufacturing, which involves removing material from a larger piece to create the final product. 3D printing has become increasingly popular in recent years due to its ability to create customized, complex objects quickly and inexpensively.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
The first patent for a 3D printer was filed in 1986 by Chuck Hull, who went on to found 3D Systems Corporation. However, it wasn't until the early 2000s that 3D printing became more widely available and affordable. Since then, 3D printing technology has continued to advance and is now used in a wide range of industries, including aerospace, automotive, and healthcare.<br />
<br />
== How it Works ==<br />
The process of 3D printing typically begins with creating a 3D digital model using computer-aided design (CAD) software. The 3D model is then sliced into thin layers using specialized software, and the 3D printer uses these slices as a blueprint for creating the physical object. The printer then builds the object layer by layer, typically using one of several methods:<br />
<br />
Fused deposition modeling (FDM): The printer melts plastic filament and deposits it in layers to create the object.<br />
Stereolithography (SLA): The printer uses a laser to cure a liquid resin, building the object layer by layer.<br />
Selective laser sintering (SLS): The printer uses a laser to fuse powdered material together, building the object layer by layer.<br />
== Applications ==<br />
3D printing has a wide range of applications across many industries. Some examples include:<br />
<br />
Rapid prototyping: 3D printing can quickly produce a prototype of a new product design for testing and refinement.<br />
Customized products: 3D printing allows for the creation of customized products, such as prosthetics, dental implants, and hearing aids.<br />
Art and design: Artists and designers use 3D printing to create unique and complex sculptures and objects.<br />
Education: 3D printing is increasingly used in schools and universities to teach students about design, engineering, and manufacturing.<br />
== Challenges ==<br />
While 3D printing has many advantages, it also presents some challenges. Some of the most significant challenges include:<br />
<br />
Materials limitations: 3D printing is currently limited to a relatively narrow range of materials, such as plastics and metals.<br />
Complexity: Creating 3D models and preparing them for printing can be a complex and time-consuming process.<br />
Quality control: The quality of 3D-printed objects can vary depending on the printer used and the materials used.<br />
== Conclusion ==<br />
3D printing has come a long way since its inception, and the technology is likely to continue to evolve and improve in the years to come. While it presents some challenges, the ability to quickly and inexpensively create customized, complex objects has enormous potential in a wide range of industries.</div>Ikevinaxhttps://ikev.in/w/index.php?title=File:3d_printer.jpg&diff=531File:3d printer.jpg2023-04-30T18:34:39Z<p>Ikevinax: </p>

<br />
The '''micro:bit''' is a small programmable computer developed for education and experimentation. It was created by the BBC to encourage coding and digital skills in young people.<br />
<br />
There are two versions of the micro:bit: version 1 and version 2. Both versions are similar in many ways, but there are some key differences between the two.<br />
<br />
==v1==<br />
<br />
Overall, the micro:bit v1 is a small and affordable device designed for education and experimentation in programming and electronics. Its compact size, variety of sensors and input/output options, and wireless capabilities make it a versatile tool for a wide range of projects.<br />
<br />
* Processor: 16MHz ARM Cortex-M0<br />
* Memory: 16KB RAM, 256KB Flash<br />
* Wireless: Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)<br />
* Sensors: Compass, Accelerometer, and Temperature sensor<br />
* Input/Output: 5x5 LED matrix display, 2 programmable buttons, 3 analog input/output rings, 20-pin edge connector for additional accessories<br />
* Power: Micro USB connector for power and programming, or 2 AAA batteries (not included)<br />
<br />
[https://makecode.microbit.org/v1/device/pins Diagram of micro:bit v1]<br />
<br />
==v2==<br />
<br />
Compared to the micro:bit v1, the v2 has a more powerful processor, more memory, and additional features such as a microphone, speaker, touch-sensitive logo, and capacitive touch sensor. These enhancements make the micro:bit v2 more capable of handling complex tasks and enable more advanced projects and experimentation with sound and touch-based interactions.<br />
<br />
* Processor: 64MHz ARM Cortex-M4<br />
* Memory: 512KB RAM, 2MB Flash<br />
* Wireless: Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)<br />
* Sensors: Compass, Accelerometer, and Temperature sensor<br />
* Input/Output: 5x5 LED matrix display, 2 programmable buttons, touch-sensitive logo, capacitive touch sensor, 25-pin edge connector for additional accessories<br />
* Sound: Speaker and microphone<br />
* Power: Micro USB connector for power and programming, or 2 AAA batteries (not included)<br />
<br />
Despite these differences, both versions of the micro:bit are great tools for learning to code and experimenting with electronics. They are easy to use, affordable, and come with a range of resources and tutorials to help beginners get started.<br />
