Open Source Educational LIMS

G-MOSS (Gav-Med Open Source Society) is the ultimate free and open-source healthcare group for open source laboratory information management systems. Its focus is on data and life as subject areas that everyone can learn for free online via open-source education. Data is viewed from the perspective of artificial intelligence and Life is viewed from the perspective of genetic engineering. We believe that path to a self-taught education is via the internet and is possible with the symbiosis of artificial and biological intelligence. Linus's law states that 'given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow'. This means that everyone should learn and participate in the development of artificial intelligence and genetic engineering. 

Medical Laboratories are playing an important role in the development of open-source technologies used in healthcare for understanding data and life. A free and accredited bachelors degree in computer science will soon be realized via the internet. Free and open-source online learning will revolutionize the information age thus leading to the symbiosis of artificial intelligence and genetic engineering which will create superhumans.

 

Open Data and Life

Open source technologies are becoming more popular now since Microsoft purchased GitHub, the ultimate open source software development company. Free and open source software (FOSS) allows users to use, study, change and distribute the software and its source code to anyone and for any purpose. It is source code that is designed to be publicly accessible. Microsoft was the major opponent of this idea of open source since their business model was built on proprietary closed source software. Eventually, everyone will have to embrace every form of open source, including open data and open life which are the future. Open Data focuses on the open source approach to artificial intelligence whilst Open Life focuses on the open source approach to genetic engineering. This is future of open source which allows anyone to use, study, change and distribute the source code of AI and genetics. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, even university education is now open source. There is an open source computer science degree available on GitHub called Open Source Society University.

Medical Laboratories will serve as research laboratories and institutes for open data and open life. This idea will help shape the future of open source as Medical Laboratories make science fiction into science fact.

Computers or Humans: AI or Genetics

There is an ongoing debate about which technology will have the greatest impact on the universe. Robotics, Computers and AI will create machines that are autonomous, require little to no human intelligence and exist independently. Human engineering with Genetics will create human beings with biological superintelligence that exist supernaturally without any form of disease. This war between computers and humans will become more intense with advancements in the fields of artificial intelligence and genetics. DNA is the most advanced form of software ever created. This makes engineering life the most important invention of the human race. AlphaCode and GPT-3 allows computers to write their own code using artificial intelligence. In the future, computers will be able to reprogram human genetics using artificial intelligence. This means that instead of humans engineering machines, machines will start to engineer humans . Thus, using AI, computers will start to engineer life. The jobs of software and genetic engineers would become extinct. STEM discoveries are gradually making progress in the engineering of life especially for humans to become a multiplanetary species and colonise Mars.

Medical Laboratories will make the engineering of life, especially human life, possible with the use of artificial intelligence. The aim is to invent technologies in biological systems engineering via science fabrication from science fiction. Medical Laboratories are the future of envisioneering and futurecrafting. Computer and Biological programmers will be obsolete when the Robots in Laboratory Medicine take over healthcare. 

Engineering Systems

The entire universe and the solar system are engineering masterpieces. The component parts and subsystems are will coordinated to carry out the main functions of the complex systems. Of all those complex systems in the universe, Life is the most advanced and complex. Throughout history, from Noah's Ark was built, systems engineering was used to make life possible. The Garden of Eden was a well engineered system which allowed Adam and Eve (the first people) to live happily. Planet Earth provides humans with the basic amenities for survival (food, water, clothing, shelter and sex) in a well engineered system. Life is the most advanced form of technology.

By definition, the goal of systems engineering is to guide the engineering of complex systems. A system is a set of interrelated components working together toward some common objective. Systems engineering focuses on the system as a whole; it emphasizes its total operation. It looks at the system from the outside as well as from the inside. The Medical Laboratory is a system which has people, process, data, software and hardware. Once Medical Laboratories are properly engineered, they can change the world. 

Starship or Noah's Ark: Mars or Heaven

Starship is the creation of a rocket, by Elon Musk, to transport all lifeforms to Mars which sounds like the Noah's Ark story from the Bible. The Question is: "Will all life be destroyed on Earth by AI?" One could say that the story of Noah's Ark is a metaphorical prediction of the existential threat that is facing humanity in the form of climate change and artificial intelligence ("the flood"). The theologians have also theorized that the day we leave Earth we will be going to heaven or hell when Jesus comes. This is referred to as "Judgment Day". This is the unending war of ideologies between religion and science. Engineers believe that we should go to Mars and Theologians believe that we should go to Heaven.

The next major engineering feat is creating forms of life that can exist on other planets. This is called the engineering of biology. After the use of electrical, mechanical and chemical engineering to create Starship, the most important part of the Mars mission is the biological engineering of human beings. Medical Laboratories will have to become the factory for the engineering of life in order to make humans multiplanetary. Life is the most advanced form of engineering.

Laboratory Information Systems of the Future

Laboratory Information Systems will become the center of artificial intelligence in Laboratory Medicine. This ocean of patient data will transform Medical Laboratories into the most intelligent system of modern healthcare. With the rewriting of human genetics and this ocean of patient data, the programming of human biology becomes more of a science fact than fiction. Intelligent Medical Laboratory Information Systems will not only serve as a management tool for labs but a management tool for all aspects of patient care. This is where computers take over Laboratory Medicine and the Physician becomes obsolete. These information systems will become so intelligent that automatically a diagnosis will be provided with every patient data that the system analyzes. The Central Nervous System of the Medical Laboratory will be operated from a computer software whilst the musculoskeletal system will be the use of robotics as a means of mechanics for patient samples. No humans will be required in such a Medical Laboratory since the entire process will be automated with robotics and laboratory information systems.

This is one way in which artificial intelligence and robotics will change healthcare and replace jobs. Such a reality should not be viewed as dystopian or science fiction, but as an opportunity for engineers and other scientists to think of ways to solve bigger problems in Laboratory Medicine. 

Gamification of Medical Laboratories

Gamification is the key to increased customer engagement. In the metaverse, gamers will be able to use virtual worlds to keep people's attention and monetize eyeballs. The ability to gamify an industry using augmented and virtual realities are the future of online sales. To create this new version of the internet, referred to as Web 3.0, marketing will become a game. A game is a structured form of play which is usually done for entertainment and/or education. 

Gamification is a marketing strategy which enhances systems, products, services, and organizations in order to motivate and engage users using the experiences garnered from playing a game. It is used as part of a persuasive system design tool for learning and knowledge retention as well as improving customer retention.

Medical Laboratories will have to use gamification in order to survive in the new world of internet marketing. The metaverse will be in the form of a 3D computer simulation like a video game with parallel universes to the physical one we exist in. Therefore, new salespeople will have to develop a gamers' mindset to market effectively in the metaverse.
