March 2025:Grok 3 has kindly volunterered to assist younger half of world seek INTELLIGENCE good news of month :from Paris ai summit and gtc2025 changed the vision of AI.

LeCun, speaking March 19 (X @MaceNewsMacro)
IT came out of nowhere,” beating GPT-4o in benchmarks (post:0, July 23, 2024). This lean, local win thrilled the younger crowd—renewable generation vibes—since LLaMA 3’s 405B model (July 2024, huggingface.co) is free for all, from Mumbai coders to Nairobi startups.
Good News: Indian youth grabbed it—Ambani praised Zuckerberg at Mumbai (October 24, 2024, gadgets360.com) for “democratizing AI.” Modi’s “import intelligence” mantra (2024, itvoice.in) synced, with LLaMA 3 fueling Hindi LLMs (gadgets360.com).

In the view of the global health crisis, UNESCO World Higher Education Conference, initially planned to be held in 2021, will take place from 18 to 20 May 2022. The goals and strategic scope of the conference remain, and the new time frame represents an opportunity to deepen and expand our common efforts of knowledge production, policy dialogue, exchange, and networking. UNESCO considers the process of collective construction as the greatest richness of this conference, which aims to become a global conversation nurtured by diverse narratives on higher education.
UNESCO thanks all organisations and individuals that have already expressed interest and are working to collaborate with and substantively contribute to the WHEC and even beyond. We encourage those who have not yet consider engagement to do so and coordinate via the WHEC Secretariat: whec2022@unesco.org(link sends e-mail)
The WHEC will maintain a hybrid format to provide opportunities for broad participation.

are there big win-wins between america's top 10 natural jewels - eg chesapeake bay - foundations, donors and colleges whose students could apprentice in green projects and solution - america green biggest mooc ever - but not examined on pieces of papers but by which colleges and societies renew their natural assets

- i think that can be a big win-win post covid between museum donor and foundation particularly if that 4thly connects with college doing real student projects in heritage communities; i would love to try and blitz every colege that could be getting its student uniting round chesapeake bay projects - maybe thats a discussion after jeanne lim's moved on ; it relates to which are nature's biggest jewels in usa and do colleges near those jewels free student apprentice solutions- my expereinnce is college projects are so silioised even though natures jewel is begging out to unite all foundastions all donors and neighboring colege students- conversely about 4 years ago IADB hosted vc og salisbury university - he was discussing place branding - salisbury has enough collaboration projects going that he was thinking of renaming chesapeake university
the whole could be mooced as new green curricula - i have always wanted to see moocs whose perpose is not an exam certificate but massive youth collaboration entrepreneurship - we have a million students chatting from over 300 us places on march 30- what we dont have is which of these chats connects a nature project and a college https://earthday.maps.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/3099472c8d794908917c23d06dffd2cb what absurd is this million chat is effectively sponsored by soros open society foundation hq's in new york and all its related foudations carnegie ford etc but the foundation and the colelge people are in separate silos never getting on the same diary in ways that youth could benefit from
