Robert Lufkin Lends His Social Media Presence [30,00 Twitter Followers] to Voice, a blockchain-based social media network


As Robert Lufkin’s Twitter followers exceed 30,000 with his key updates to the COVID-19 pandemic situation, he is now expanding his presence to include Voice.
Voice is a blockchain-based social media network being developed by Block.one, a leading distributed ledger technology (DLT) software developer.
It  was announced in mid-2019 by Brendan Blumer, the CEO at Block.one, a Cayman Islands-registered firm that also developed EOS (a platform for building decentralized applications), has received $150 million in funding from Block.one.  The Voice platform aims to provide a monetized social media network where users will be rewarded in cryptocurrency tokens for posting content and interacting with other users. Unlike Facebook and other traditional social media platforms, the developers of Voice claim that their platform will provide an opportunity to all users to benefit from making contributions to the network.
Social media networks like Facebook have also failed to protect users’ privacy. Voice’s management says that their platform will ensure that users’ personal information remains safe and it will help them maintain their privacy.
Robert Lufkin and a small number of users are using the beta version of for testing purposes. The company is currently preparing to launch the platform to the general public soon.

Robert Lufkin and Artificial intelligence

Robert Lufkin  has had an enduring interest in artificial intelligence. From his days in high school, Robert developed rule based computer programming that would generate music in a certain style as specified by the code. He supplemented this knowledge by attending classes at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology [MIT] on the weekends. During that time he also helped in the laboratories of David Hubel and Torsten Wiesel at Harvard University who studied the  mammalian visual system . They later received the Nobel Prize for their revolutionary work describing the neurophysiology of the visual cortex. Their initial results showed both the transformations that occur from one level of processing to the next and how a sequence of these transformations might lead to at least the elements of pattern perception. Their experiments immediately provided a structure for conceptualizing how cortical neurons could be organized to produce perception. This work would foreshadow the developm

By overwhelming vote of its entire membership the Society for Magnetic Resonance Imaging elected Robert Lufkin to be its president from 1990-1991. Robert Lufkin has had a lifelong interest in neuroscience and imaging. During high school in the Boston area, he was fortunate to be able to attend classes at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology [MIT]. During that time he also worked at the New England Primate Center affiliated with Harvard University where he helped in the laboratories of David Hubel and Torsten Wiesel who studied the mammalian visual system. They later received the Nobel Prize for their work describing the neurophysiology of the visual cortex.             In college at Brown University, Robert did original experimental research in the neurophysiology of the mammalian visual system, specifically the superior colliculus. He also minored in computer science and worked part-time in the main campus computer center as a machine operator to earn extra money.
