World Language Pyramid
Donation protected
What will be your legacy when you are gone?
Will you tell your grandchildren you sent a human to Mars? Will you tell them how you cured cancer?
Most likely not. Most of us spend our productive hours dealing or working out the issues of the day.
Individually very few of us have the time or resources to take on such huge and complex tasks.
What if all you had to do was give 1 minute of your time and you could be part of something that changes the world as we know it?
Would you do it?
If you said yes, then please donate and keep reading and find out what we are trying to accomplish and how you can be a part of history.
Why are we asking for funding?
We are asking for funding to create the worlds' first language pyramid.
What we are proposing to do has never been done in human history. We are attempting to create the defacto library of human speech.
It is our belief that the language pyramid will have significant commercial, scientific and historical benefits that will make the world a better place to live.
Here are but a few reasons to help us, some are just feel good items and some have the potential to make the world a better place to live.
Here they are:
1. Give every individual the opportunity to become part of something bigger then themselves. Think along the lines of tracing your family origins down and finding out that your forebearers built the great pyramid.
On an egotistical scale that would give you some serious bragging rights? :)
2. Preserving a record of the world as it is right here, right now.
3. Save your culture. By creating this defacto library it is more likely that it will be used in more and more A.I. systems and increase usage worldwide. By keeping people aware of your language it continues to live.
People 100 years from now will know how you thought, why you thought what you did and why; all because they can more easily translate what was said
4. We believe this library will have both a commercial as well as social impact on the world by allowing us to have more transparent and understood translations with those who do not speak the same language.
If we create the context in which each word is said it less likely to be misinterpreted.
5.It will make interacting with our enviroment easier, freeing us up to do more creative and spiritual things with our time and each other.
Image speaking to your home automation system and saying: The family will be home later then usual because Amy has a soccer game tonight. Call the pizza place at 6:00 pm and have a large pizza delivered to the house.
You walk away do your stuff for the day, take Amy to her game and as you arrive home, there's a hot pepparoni pizza for you.
This and other task can be done if the A.I. system understands what was being said. The problem with today's speach recognition technology is that it takes time to train them to the speach pattern of each individual.
With our library, the A.I. systems will have a genius level understanding of the language so there is no additional training necessary. So now anybody can speak to anything or anyperson and have a perfect translation of their speech.
How will we spend the money?
The money will be spent in buying the hardware to store the data, development cost to build the app to collect the data, and a website to show our progress, interact with those interested, provided transparency to our project and ultimately to showcase to the world the language pyramid. A small percentage will be spent on promotion and advertising to build awareness and get people across the globe involved.
How long will it take?
It is commonly believed that it took the Egyptians' 20 years to build the Great Pyramid of Giza, we have set a goal of 2 years to build ours, with a delivery date of January 1, 2020.
It is hoped that within the first 60 days we achieve our funding goal.
Once that is done we will begin setting up the network storage and software development, which we believe can be done by March 1, 2018.
From there we will spend the next 21 months collecting data, refining our software and removing any roadblocks that would prevent us from having a successful completion.
How you can help?
Please donate, every dollar helps. Secondly, spread the world. Ask your friends and family if they too want to be part of history, to build a modern day pyramid the likes of which the world has never seen.
Personal reasons for wanting to create the Language Pyramid.
As a software developer I have spent the last 25 years writing code that benefited indivdual businesses, helped them cut cost, maximize output and become more efficient.
It has always been one of my goals to create something that I could give back to the community at large and that would have a positive impact on humanity.
