If you’re going to visit any tourist destination in Peru, it’s almost certainly the Incan ruins of Machu Picchu. If you were to visit another place, it would probably be the Nazca Desert. It is home to many large-scale geoglyphs created by the Pre-Incan people between 500 BC and 500 AD. Many of these areNazca Lines” are literally running across the desert floor in an abstract manner, while others are figurative, depicting humans, plants and animals, and various chimeras that are not easily categorized. Due to the preserving effects of climate, many of these designs were recognizable by the time modern humans discovered them in 1927, and thanks to artificial intelligence technology, researchers are still discovering new designs today.
A team from Yamagata University Nazca Institute, In collaboration with IBM Research, 303 previously unknown human and animal geoglyphs have been discovered, all dating from 200 to 700 AD, spread over more than 400 square kilometers on the Nazca Plateau. The size is smaller than the geometric pattern. ” I write guardianDan Collins.
“Utilization of AI and low flying drone According to a research paper published in the journal this week, it has revolutionized the speed and velocity of geoglyph discovery. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences” and many more Nazca Lines may be identified in these ways.
The newly identified geoglyphs “include birds, plants, spiders, a human-like figure in a headdress, a severed head, and a knife-wielding killer whale.” CNN’s Katie Hunt writes. She also cites theories about why the original creators of these statues went through the painstaking process of moving stone after stone to create statues that were nearly invisible to the human eye. Masu. “They may have formed sacred spaces, perhaps places of pilgrimage.” Other theories suggest they played a role in the calendar, astronomy, irrigation, or movement such as running or dancing, or communication. He claims to have achieved this. ” Indeed, it may be natural that some of them are meant only for the eyes of God, and therefore only the God of modern artificial intelligence could reveal them.
