AI and data research.
Advice on data, digital maps and AI testing.
ParalleX Labs Inc. is based in Burnaby, British Columbia. Its public work includes digital maps, data tools and free learning materials. We welcome enquiries about data analysis, digital maps and ways to test AI.
Mission
We aim to build AI and data tools whose limits are clear.
We are interested in how AI programs work together and in questions about thinking and awareness. These are planned research interests.
Planned research
Areas we plan to research include:
- AI programs that improve or work together
- AI that runs on your own computer
- Ways to test AI and find information in documents
- Data analysis, digital maps and free learning materials
- Questions about thinking and awareness in people and AI
Consulting
- Advice on data analysis and checking data for errors.
- Digital maps built from location data.
- Advice on using AI: clear limits, ways to check its output and a person who reviews the work.
- Advice on software that runs on your own computer.
- We would agree the scope, sources, checks and limits in writing before work begins.
How we work
Open by design. Our public code is on GitHub. Each repository states its licence.
We plan to state each research question, its sources and its limits.
We favour tools that keep data on your own device where feasible.
A person reviews the work before anyone relies on it. We work in English. Some learning materials are also in French.
Projects and demos
These public examples include browser tools, practice labs and mapping prototypes. Each has its own scope and limits.
