Good day everyone!
Amazing things happen in the world - a small step in progress - a giant step for ... plants. I read
an article about the fact that the plant maintains its blog. The article tells us about a new “web service”, which was designed based on the Plantio interactive platform developed by Satoshi Kuribayashi from Keio University. Engineers from IT-company KAYAC and presented - their miracle invention.

The “botanical” interface uses the electrical potential of plants, registering weak currents arising on the surface of leaves. At the same time, the recorded signals vary depending on changes in the surrounding space — temperature, humidity, vibration level, lighting, and a number of other parameters.
A specially designed program by means of a cunning algorithm replaces the data obtained with phrases in Japanese, sometimes adding a pun on the subject to make it more artistic. And then everything is as usual: an Internet connection - a blog.
Those interested can go to the plant blog, but for this you need to know Japanese, the plant is recording
hereThe Japanese company expects that this experiment will allow us to understand in which direction the development of interactive systems should move. Well, and help people not to forget about the environment, of course - says the article.
So, the conclusions: the future is coming, and perhaps humanity, in a couple of centuries, will have to fight back not only from artificial intelligence and supercomputers, as blockbusters predict, but also against plants, flora and fauna have long been sharpening a tooth on people who kill their ecology.
But it will be in a couple of centuries, and now - I can’t wait for my cat to start his blog, it’s very interesting what is in his head, and I’ll definitely sign up for his notes!
What do you think, dear habraradi?
