The team has begun to power sections of the alien ship and access computer files after a week of work. They discover the ship's computer language is a mixture of Sumerian and Indus texts. Translating the logs, they determine the ship originated over 7,000 years ago and made contact with ancient civilizations. After accessing more files through the AI system, they learn the ship came from the 10th planet in the solar system, Annunaki, as described in ancient Sumerian texts. The discovery sparks debate but is cut short by the arrival of UN forces.

Human Adaptation and the Ingenuity Gap1
Thomas Homer-Dixon
University of Toronto
I have been working for many years on the problem of adaptation: how societies
or organisms, species, or systems of various kinds adapt to complex and rapid
change. In this paper, I will outline my theories and my thinking about
adaptation as summarized in the book, The Ingenuity Gap. I will also highlight
five aspects of education for the future: education for complexity and what that
means; education for reconnection to the micro and macro scales around us;
education that increases our respect for experiential knowledge; education that
will encourage a recognition of our connectivity through time, from the present
into the future; and finally, education to broaden our conception of values. I’ll
touch on each one of these points in my presentation today.
Let’s start by going over the basic argument that I’ve been developing
in books such as The Ingenuity Gap. I start by asking a number of core
questions:
• Are we creating a world that’s too complex to manage?
• Do the “experts” really know what’s going on?
• Are we really as smart as we think we are?
• Then finally, the most important question, can we solve the
problems of the future?
I’m interested in developing ideas and taking them to the general
public, explaining or extracting some of the ideas and knowledge from isolated
worlds of academe and then providing them for a general audience. One way I
do that is to tell a lot of stories. So I will start my response to these four
questions this evening by telling a story that comes at the beginning of the book.
Now one of the mildly amusing things about this book is that when it first came
out it was selling very well in airports across the country. I don’t think people

airplane crash. But I’m going to describe that incident today because it will
motivate my subsequent comments in this presentation.
The incident occurred on July 19, 1989, during United Airlines Flight
232 between Denver and Chicago. About half-way through the flight, the rear
tail engine on the DC-10 blew up. Now, there are three engines on the DC-10: a
large one in the tail and one over each wing. When the rear tail engine blew up,
the shrapnel from the explosion destroyed all three hydraulic systems in the
plane. Those hydraulic systems were necessary for controlling the flight
surfaces – the ailerons, ...
The document provides a history of robots from ancient Greek machines in 270 BC to modern applications. It notes that the first robots were devices like water clocks built by Greek engineers. The term "robot" was coined in 1921 in a play, and Isaac Asimov popularized robots in fiction in the 1940s and established the Three Laws of Robotics. Modern robots are used widely in manufacturing, the military, space exploration, medicine, and personal applications. While robots provide benefits, concerns exist about job loss and potentially hostile robots.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. 3.
After spending a week, the team begins to notice their hard work pay off. A scientist who was
working inside the engine room of the ship accidently manages to power the ship.
Taking the opportunity Imran who wrote a computer program to control the control panel of
the ship with his computer quickly divert the power to different area of the ship. The control
panel and the rest of the ship was powered for the first time but the ship was in no position to
fly or move since the team didn’t fully understood how the engine works.
Once the ship was powered, Relto and Mike begin navigating the log files of the ship. One of
the programmers from a different section managed to write a computer program to decode
the data but the program was not hundred percent accurate. Most of the files were not
possible to decode.
Soon Mike and Relto discovered the language of the Alien species. The Alien language was a
mixture of Sumerian and Indus text found in the ruins of Sumerians and Indus civilization.
Shocked and shacked by the discovery. Both Mike and Relto begin translating the alien log in
to English. From the log files from the alien computer, Relto and the rest of the team managed
to find out the origin of the ship.
With the help of the computer simulation, the team explains Ahmed that the ship landed on to
this region 7000 years ago.
The software of the ship estimates the date of manufactory to be 1000 year older which
means that the software of the ship was written much earlier than the ship.
Furthermore, the log files were written in a mixture of Sumerian and Indus text.
“We believe we will be able to find video and audio files from the ship but so far our software’s
are too weak to hack in to the alien mainframe server and we cannot recover the data since
the servers are kicking us out. The cube we found inside the control panels that connects the
PCBs are some sort of nodes just like nodes find human brain. The electrical circuit works in
the similar fashion as that of human brain. So we believe the ship must have an AI construct
that if activated might help us with more information” – informed Imran.
“What about the beacon” – asked Ahmed.
“We do not know the origin and the reason for the beacon” – informed Imran.
“What is more surprise is the fact that we managed to trace a map inside the server which
describes the ancient civilization of Mesopotamia, Mayan, Indus, Sumerian, Egyptians and
the Aztecs. We believe that the ancient civilization were in fact in contact with the alien
species for a brief period of time” – said Relto.
The team begins working on the ship for a month until that time Relto and Alisa had a deep
understand of each other. They appreciated each other’s company.
3. At one fine morning while browsing through the archive of the ship, Relto came across a
document which describes the location of the alien planet and a manual of the ship.
Relto translated the document and inform Mike, Imran and Jessica about his discovery. Imran
and Jessica managed to power the audio/video of the ship based on the translated manual
and also managed to switch on the AI construct of the ship.
The team along with Alisa and Ahmed was called inside the ship to demonstrate the ships
function.
As soon as the ship’s AI construct went online. The AI spoke in a language which was
Sumerian.
Relto being an archeologist informed the ship in Sumerian to utilize a new code to translate
the commands in English based on the programming library written by one of the computer
programmers.
Imran and rest of the engineers entered the code in to the control panel and waited until the
data was recognized and understood by the artificial construct.
A moment later the AI construct managed to spoke in English. “Command” – said the AI. Relto
asked the ship for its origin. The AI explained the manufacturer and explains the work done by
the company that had constructed the ship.
Relto then ask the AI for its origin planet. The ship describes the planet name as Annunaki.
“The 10th planet from the sun” – said AI.
“The 10th planet? There are only 9 planets if you consider Pluto as a planet” – said Allisa.
“A.I., can you show me the orbit of the planet of Annunaki?” – asked Relto.
The AI switches the holographic screen right in front of the team and shows the orbit of planet
that is beyond Pluto and takes 3600 years to revolve around the sun.
“No way, it’s that the same planet that ancient Sumerian wrote about in their text?” – asked
Mike.
“Yes, that the planet of Annunaki” – exclaimed Relto.
“Could you let us all know what the ancient civilization had to say about these aliens doctor?”
– asked Ahmed.
“The ancient civilization believed that our species were the created by space travelers, these
space travelers were responsible for teaching mankind the science of building construction,
mathematic, city planning and so on. Sumerians were one of the oldest civilizations to have a
written history and were the first to claim that entities from the planet of Annunaki created us
in to their own image” – explained Relto to Ahmed and the others.
4. “So you are suggesting this ship belong to Gods. This is preposterous” – there was a strong
concern and anger in Ahmed’s voice.
Relto ask the AI to display the biological history of the original owner of the ship. The AI
converts the wall of the ship in to holographic screens.
“AI could you translate the task in to English” – request Relto.
The AI takes a moment before displaying the characters in to English letters. Everyone
including Ahmed and Alisa was surprised to see the history of the Annunaki dated back to
Alien Stone Age.
“Computer, what’s your mission?” – asked Alisa. “To provide logistic and intellectual support to
the people of this planet” – said the Artificial Intelligence.
Everyone in the rooms was silent and puzzled.
“Were humans part of the Annunaki experiment?” – Someone in the room asked.
“No, humanity was guided to make a society so that Annunaki could live with humans again
on Earth” – said the AI.
“Again, when did humans and Annunaki live together?” – asked Mike.
“Throughout history” – answered AI. The answer sparked a huge discussion in the room and
everyone wanted to ask the AI but all of sudden the crowd heard loud noises outside.
When the team went out to investigate, they saw dozens of gunship helicopters surrounding
the starship. Two of the carrier helicopter lands near the site.
A tall, broad shouldered Army officer exits the apache helicopter. The local security barricade
themselves and orders from the distance to halt and show their identification.
“I am Gen. Robert from Special UN task force. I need to talk to Ahmed Rao” – said Gen.
Robert.
The security team is forced to stand down by Ahmed who walk ahead and meet the General.
Gen. Robert shows Ahmed a piece of paper which was signed by the UN secretary general.
“This is a top secret joint research project, how did the UN came to know of this?” asked
Ahmed.
