80%1,004 wyświetleńFahad Al Saud is a social entrepreneur, innovative philanthropist and devoted humanitarian. A Stanford graduate in engineering, he joined Facebook as Analyst & Head of User Operations Arabic in 2008, which earned him the distinction of being named Most Influential International Youth at the 2011 Arab Youth Media Forum. A frequent NATO lecturer on the Middle East’s social media & privacy issues, Fahad’s contributions to the privacy and security sectors gave rise to his 2011 appointment as Ambassador of Privacy to the Arab World by Dr. Anna Cavokian, Canada’s Information & Privacy Commissioner. Currently, Fahad consults the Saudi government on cyber-technology and other youth focused capacity building programs within his home Kingdom; he has successfully introduced a number of ventures in online gaming and social networking, including KSA’s first “Start-up weekend”. In October 2012, Playsino acquired Fahad’s Popover Games, a multi-player heritage games company for Facebook and other mobile platforms. As co-founder, Fahad was pivotal in one of the first international sales of an Arab-owned social gaming company. His latest venture continues to align with his pride in the Middle East: NA3M (New Arabic Media), which represents a new age commitment to entrepreneurship in the region, through the support of technologically driven start-up companies.

80%1,151 wyświetleńConsumer adoption of technology is outpacing our understanding of how to use that technology to deliver our clients’ messages.

Co-creation: company-think to consumer-think
Wideo
80%952 wyświetleńI think the big change we are in is that we have to evolve, especially those over 30, from company-think towards consumer-think. A lot of people over 30, actually a lot of people who are identifying with their own companies, think: This is the company, this is the product and this is the way we have to do it. That doesn't work any more. There's more and more disruptive technology which really must make you think: What do consumers want, and how do they want it and how can we tune in to their desires, how can we appropriate their desires to make products for them together with them that are more satisfying to them than what the competitor makes? That's the big shift. It's not so much from industrialism to experiences, because that's a line, but from company-think towards consumer-think.

China creates relationships with powerhouses
Wideo
80%928 wyświetleńClearly, China's relationship with Africa and with Latin America is, at least in part, based on the fact that it requires extraordinary amounts of resources to support the continuing growth and build-out that it's undertaken. And that those are resource-rich continents. Clearly that's a big piece of the equation. But I think it's a very fundamental mistake for us to believe, that that's the whole story. That that's the only motivation that China has in creating those relationships with those parts of the world. I believe that China is experiencing a self-confidence, it has managed to perform something that really does look like a miracle, in the last twenty years. And having done so, I think it believes that other parts of the world can do so too- the likeliest parts where the huge bursts of growth could occur- Africa, Latin America. I think that it actually wants to create relationships with the next powerhouses, and very importantly, China does not want to live in the new American century. In the West, and in the US in particular, we are fairly explicit. What we want to do is make sure that we get the rules of engagement laid down in such a way that as the world comes to life, all over the planet, that they're playing by the rule system that we're familiar with and comfortable with. I think, quite naturally, China has shown a very strong disinclination to be locked into Western technology standards, hence why it wants to go for open-source solutions as opposed to propriety platforms, etcetera. It wants a role in setting the standards and establishing the rules, and it wants allies and partners to do that with. What better allies and partners than those who are already somewhat disenfranchised and perhaps somewhat discouraged by their experience of the way they perceive they have been treated by the powers of the 20th century- and creating new cultural, economic, social, political linkages with those continents. I think it's also a very important piece of the story, it's not just the resources.

Technology is the answer. What is the question?
Wideo
80%960 wyświetleńTechnology is a good servant and a very bad master. The problem is not to allow it to master us. Technology has a kind of propensity to perpetuate itself. The famous saying is, the question mark that was said in California some decades ago. It said: Technology is the answer, but what is the question? If you're allowing technology to be a master, and that's the so-called technological imperative, then you say that technology is the answer to any question. That's a mistake because maybe there is another answer, or maybe not the same kind of technology is the answer as the one that created the problem. Technology, in a broad sense in which I'm using it and anthropologists are using it, is every way, every method by which we relate to each other and to our environment. But we have to choose these methods very carefully.

Donofrio: Emerging regions
Wideo
80%1,010 wyświetleńSo this whole idea around… can many of the Eastern nations, or Africa, or Latin-America, can they leapfrog you? Can they take a big enough step to actually get completely by you? I doubt they can take a big enough step to get completely by anyone. I think they can certainly move faster than anyone is predicting, and they need to, but they're going to want to do that anyway, because they're motivated differently than you. Or me. They have nothing. In most cases they literally live at the base of the pyramid. And therefore they want change so bad that every day they get up, saying: "I've got to change what I'm doing. I've got to get out of here! I've got to go somewhere else. I've got to do better." Remember, everyone is on this planet to try to increase their standard of living, not lower their standard of living. So those people just are hungrier; they have a greater passion. So it's not technology to blame here, it's their willingness to change, their willingness to sacrifice compared to yours or mine. We're sometimes too comfortable. So comfortable that were not willing to be upset. They are so uncomfortable that nothing upsets them. And therefore they move faster than you do. That's what we all need to worry the most about: Are we complacent? Do we have the eye of the tiger? Are we hungry? Are we going to change fast enough? Because whether you like it or not, there are, what… almost three billion people on the planet who live at the base of the pyramid. They are changing incredibly fast and can't wait to move from where they are.

Labarre: Future of work - Freedom and flexibility
Wideo
80%1,060 wyświetleńI think there's a massive re-ordering going on in the world of work. There's sort of a basic point here which is: if you want to have a disruptive presence in the marketplace you have to create, by definition, a distinctive approach to the workplace. We have created this sort of workplace pornography where every magazine, and I think we at Fast Company started this in a way, gushes over beautiful workplaces, and perks 'Look what they get'. I do think that's a peace of it. That everybody has to strive to create an organization where people walk in the door and say 'Why can't my company work this way? I had lunch at Google the other day, I would like some Sushi.'. It's not just about perks, it's really about the attention, the creativity, the rigor. The inventiveness around people practices has to much up to all the other creativity and rigor you have in all your other functions. That's sort of the table stakes. I think everybody's got to be working on that. Just because the successful organizational stories are now so visible, so out there that everybody's got a taste of it. Why would you have a drab, soul crushing, Dilbert experience, when you've seen that out there. I do think there's something else happening and part of this is mobile technology, that we're all basically able to work anywhere, any time we want. Part of this has to do with women now in the work force for many many years and becoming part of the leadership generation. It has to do with the demographics of Gen Y coming in and their different values and sensibilities around how and where and when they want to work. And how the economy restructures itself. There's all these macro trends that are putting pressure on these organization man approach to work. We still have this industrial motive: work is where you are, it's your desk, it's you chair, it's your office. It's getting your cup of coffee and plunking it down on your desk and 'OK. I'm at work', having meetings and all of the kind of structured, monitored, approach to work. I think increasingly freedom and flexibility are the new status symbols at work. Not the perks, not your fast track career but really the sort of notion that 'I can work anywhere and anyway I want. As long as I get my work done.'. And there are some really high profile experiments which we all heard of . Whether it's Best Buys results only, work place environment, where they basically exploded the industrial management structure. And said just that 'You can work anywhere, anyhow, any time you want, use whatever equipment, just get your work done. That's literally the only rule.' And then they did a lot of great cultural things around 'How do you control the emotional layer of un-ordering work?' How do you stop people saying 'Oh, it must be nice to be you. You come in at three o'clock every day.' And really just understand that that's how that person works best. I think there's a lot of high profile examples of that and all the other pressures. I think there's going to be a really interesting de-construction of the corporate way of working and organization at work. That's going to really change things in an interesting way.

Kenny: The impact of technology on development
Wideo
80%1,018 wyświetleńAbout 150 years ago I think it would be fair to say medical knowledge had added less than a year to the life of the average person. Doctors just didn't know what they were doing and there was not much, if anything, in the way of public health. And we have undergone a global revolution in the last 150 years where we have discovered a whole bunch of public health technologies and a whole load of private health technologies that can make a huge difference to life expectancy, which has been going up just about everywhere. I mean, in Africa in the last fifty years, life expectancy has gone up ten years. So those technologies are things like vaccines. Classic example: Smallpox killed 300 to 500 million people in the last century, it will kill nobody this century because we have wiped it out. How did we wipe it out? We used a vaccine. The examples go on: Measles deaths have dropped by three quarters over the first decade of this century, thanks to the roll-out of vaccines. Polio is nearly wiped out world wide thanks to vaccines. So vaccines have played a huge role, but also technologies as simple as sugar-salt solution to deal with cases of diarrhoea. Diarrhoea used to be a massive world killer and it still kills far too many kids in the developing world. But you can treat diarrhoea with something as simple as water and sugar and salt. And now we figured that out, which took us a while, it was only in 1971, during the Bangladesh war for independence, but once we figured it out and started spreading this technology that is more fancily called 'oral rehydration', we started saving millions of kids using something that costs two or three cents. So technology has had a vital role in health, but not just health. The mobile phone has had a massive impact on the quality of life, it allows people obviously to talk to each other but also to find out information on prices and so on. And nowadays it is being used in Kenya to act as a bank, so everybody with a phone has a bank. And the TV, not only as a force to spread information, but actually a terrible powerful force for changing norms of behaviour. I could go on. The internal combustion engine, all weather roads, nails, steel wire, plastic sheeting, soap. There are so many technologies that really have spread absolutely worldwide that are making a huge difference to health outcomes but also outcomes in areas including education and civil rights and so on.

Silva: Tools outsourcing cognition
Wideo
82%925 wyświetleńEdward O. Wilson who wrote 'Consilience', which is like the merger of biology, physics, art and everything into one thing, he says that man has decommissioned natural selection. And he says: Now we need to look deep within ourselves and decide what we wish to become. Having invented the gods, we can turn into them. And I think we are seeing it happen. I think we saw it happen, I think if you were to paint... if you were to draw like Leonardo's Vitruvian Man today, the Vitruvian Man, and if you would paint little diagrams and say: Okay, this is his opposable thumb, this is his frontal lobe, I think that he would have in his hand maybe an iPhone or a smartphone, and there would be a diagram and it would refer to that as his extended mind. And we need to get over our skin bag bias, which is this assumption that what we are is natural and organic and what we make is somehow inorganic or unnatural. I think that what we make is birthed out of nature. It is who and what we are. So I think our tools increasingly are outsourcing cognition, outgrowth of the mind, and so when I say 'playing jazz with the universe' it's just like we are waiting for the cosmos to know itself, our increasingly powerful tools are a way for evolution itself to reverse engineer itself. Evolution has evolved its own evolvability. So by exploring new possibilities and exploring new options and new niches, what are we going to make? What are these tools going to allow to unfold through their prism? Just like the harpsichord and the technology of the instrument allowed Beethoven and Mozart, the technology of the oil painting allowed Van Gogh, the technology of the alphabet allowed Shakespeare. What is the technology of biology going to do with that? What new artistry are we going to make with the substance of life itself? And with nanotechnology, what new art are we going to make when we can manipulate matter at the level of atoms? We can turn dog shit into pearls. We can turn anything into anything. I mean, it's like in the movies, except it's real. Shrinking the buffer time between what we can imagine and what we can create, we have a universe that will realize itself at the speed of our thought. Imagine that. It's amazing. It's like a psychedelic trip. The word psychedelic means 'manifest of the mind'. So it's no inaccurate to call technologies psychedelics. An article called Google the first psychedelically informed superpower, because the vision of psychedelia was always: We are all connected, we are all one. And the literalisation of that interconnectivity is the Internet. It is Google.

2014 Technology and Adult Education Conference
Wideo
80%873 wyświetleńOn Friday, May 16, 2014, two hundred adult educators from across the region joined field experts to discover innovative strategies to address the needs of adults lacking basic literacy and at The Mayor’s Commission on Literacy’s 26th Annual Technology and Adult Education Conference. The Conference was co-sponsored by Temple University’s Center for Social Policy and Community Development (CSPCD) and held on Temple University’s main campus. This year’s conference aimed to integrate technology into adult education and workforce development programs, thereby increasing the quality of instruction city-wide. Adult learners today require educational opportunities that help fulfill a wide variety of technology, social, educational and workforce goals. The conference theme “Connected Learning in Adult Education” represents shifts in the way practitioners conceptualize teaching and learning in adult education. Nearly twenty workshops focused on practice-based integrations of technology into adult literacy instruction, curriculum design, and programming. Topics included: an introduction to IBM Reading Companion software, extending the classroom community by building a class website, mobile and tablet applications that can bolster classroom instruction, instructional technology for adult basic and adult secondary education, and massive open online courses for college preparation and professional development. The conference featured a presentation on the current state of KEYSPOT, a citywide coalition of community groups led by The Mayor’s Commission on Literacy, The City of Philadelphia’s Office of Innovation and Technology, Philadelphia Department of Parks and Recreation, and Drexel University, committed to bringing Internet access, training and technology to all Philadelphia communities. The presentation highlighted the city’s dedication to equipping all citizens with the work-ready skills required of today’s technology-based economy by continuing the successful work of KEYSPOT. The afternoon featured lunch and a “Tech Talk” panel with Jeff Carter the Director of Adult Education Initiative at Digital Promise, Dr. Judith Rényi, Executive Director of the Mayor’s Commission on Literacy and Cynthia Zafft Senior Advisor for the National College Transition Network and co-director for the LINCS Region 1 Professional Development Center for the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Career, Technical and Adult Education. The “Tech Talk” explored the use of technology to enhance efforts in serving the needs of low-skilled adults. Panelists discussed the role that technology plays in three areas: (1) developing adult workforce education programs; (2) facilitating professional development for practitioners; and (3) building coalitions. Next, Pearson ELT educational materials and desktop computer donated by Nonprofit Technology Resources were raffled off. Participants visited vendors and exhibitors like IBM, Aztec Software, Technology Learning Collaborative, KEYSPOT, Philadelphia Adult Literacy Alliance and The Free Library of Philadelphia. A special thanks to all that attended and facilitated at the conference. We hope to see you back next year!

EasyITpro Introduction
Wideo
80%1,494 wyświetleńEasyITpro provides professional computer support in the Edmonton area to small businesses that have between one and fifty computers. I have a lot of years in the IT industry - I worked big business in my years with General Electric. I spent years in Silicon Valley with 3Com. I've written a couple of technical books that most would never want to read. For the last ten years I've been helping small businesses with their computer troubles, taking ownership of their issues and providing a worry-free environment where it all just works. In my experience that's what everyone wants, they just want it to work and they want it to be easy. That's what I do. My business is to enable your success, give good counsel and stay out of your way. I have some standard solutions that I offer when appropriate but honestly every situation is a little different. I strive to offer a reliable solution, leveraging some cloud solutions with constant monitoring, remote management and as much as possible I strive for a predictable, reasonable price for all-inclusive service. I avoid expensive, cutting-edge technologies, preferring proven, mainstream products from vendors that I know will still be around in a decade. Most of my work is Microsoft but I'm a really big fan of what Apple and Google are doing, particularly with mobile. This is a great time to be in Small Business technology, it is so much easier now than it has ever been before. The power of remote tools, the availability of remote support teams of supergeeks, and the cloud is a true game changer. I'd love to talk to you about any of these things.

Will rise of the creative class cause powershift?
Wideo
80%1,140 wyświetleńWouldn't that be great? I think that's it, that the creative economy or what I call the creative society that's proactively inclusive, that extends far beyond the thirty or forty percent of us, I forget the exact figure but it's between two point three and about almost four million people in Holland that are members of the creative class. Thirty to a little more than forty percent of your work force. The real key is to extend it far beyond that and get the full creative capabilities of the Dutch population.And I think you're right. The challenge is that many of these industrial institutions, just as many of the feudal institutions and agricultural institutions opposed the rise of industrial capitalism, Marx wrote very eloquently about these struggles, and ultimately though, the march of economic progress prevailed and industrial capitalism, trade, technology, industry, became predominant. I think that the march of economic progress will prevail and ultimately these institutions will be swept away and become part of the dustbin of history by these great gales of creative destruction that Joseph Schumpeter long ago talked about. But here's the thing: wouldn't you rather be the region or the country that is at the cutting edge of that, rather than the backward edge of that? When we shifted from feudal economies to industrial economies only a few places benefited, and we can name the cities in Holland or Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool in England, and many places declined. It seems to me that I would rather be a place that has a foothold in that new era.But what perplexes me, to be quite frank, is why very few if any countries have seen this. Even though all the economic indicators, even though companies are desperately trying to harness the creativity of their employees. And I think your question is the answer, that they're so bound up with the legacy of industrialism and industrial constituencies that it's very hard for them to shift. Even though this constituency is the biggest, forty percent of the workforce, and potentially the most economically prosperous, I think it's still hard to shift.

Self regulating and organizing systems
Wideo
80%820 wyświetleńIn a lot of instances, consumers will start to co-create experiences on their own. They are starting to see it in for example Wikipedia, where consumers have the tools to be able to create their own encyclopedia together and make entries. How that happens is a very interesting process. So in other words, there could be emerging self regulating systems amongst consumers, so that is the danger in some cases, where consumers have already started to form their own communities and blog with each other. And if you take one of the most recent unfortunate events like the tsunami – I was in India at the time, so I have some sense of what was going on there – but the best place for me to find out about it was on the internet, because through blogs some of the best journalism you could find was essentially people who actually were on the ground, whether in Indonesia or wherever, they had taken pictures and very rapidly they had created a means of actually going and helping these people. So you are going to start to see people being able to self organize themselves very fast, for example in this case of a catastrophe like this, to be able to respond, and I think that response was much faster, the quality of news was much more accurate, and so I think it is a very different kind of distributed capitalism, as some call it, you are going to find. I think of it as a decentering of the whole value creation process, where individuals all of a sudden start to have a much different role. The form will always have the role of bringing together, putting together its technology processes, creating the enablers of the experience, but the consumer is also going to have a much more active role in terms of not just “consuming”, but being an active co-creator of value.

Rademacher: Tech, consumers and governance
Wideo
80%627 wyświetleńIt is a combination of all. If you want a reasonable future for ten billion people, you need a much better technology combined with a much better regulation. Within that regulation, prices must say the truth, all the essential value-added processes, particularly the financial system, have to be taxed, you have to cross-finance development. Once the prices tell the truth, consumer behavior will be completely different. So the consumer behavior is very strongly driven by prices, and at the moment prices don’t tell the truth. Under a reasonable government system with reasonable technology you have a completely different price structure, and that changes everything. It changes the path of technology, it changes the lifestyles, it changes the innovation roots, it makes a completely different world. Therefore we say we need two strengths of innovation at the same time, and it must be in the sense of a double factor ten. The right kind of regulation will allow us in 70 years to have a ten times as big a GDP as today, but to have a ten times as better eco efficiency at the same time. So not using more resources, not creating more environmental problems. Ten billion people will have a much more equitable situation and a good life. And then world population will shrink. We have a chance that world population will shrink from 10 billion down. And then we have a very good situation for sustainability.

Technology affording illusion of companionship
Wideo
80%1,080 wyświetleńThe way I analyse where technology has brought us, is in terms of technological affordances and human vulnerabilities. Technology now affords us the capacity to be constantly connected and it turns out that people are vulnerable to that. But what it gives you is the ability, for example, to have the illusion of companionship, without the demands of friendship. That is where the technology affords you the possibility for that illusion of companionship without the demands of friendship. That is the technological affordance of Facebook. You have the illusion of friendships, but really you have defriended. It is not necessarily that you have all of these friends. This is very heady stuff. You have the illusion of never really being alone, but you may in fact be alone. A robotic pet gives the illusion of having company, but really you are with a creature that does not know you are there. Technology gives us many possibilities that gives us feelings and we need to understand our vulnerabilities to figure out really: is it is using us or we are using it?

Weinberger: Humanness of network knowledge
Wideo
80%1,321 wyświetleńI'm hoping that it will help us make more effective decisions. The decision-making process that we have now is a very direct response to the problem that the people who make the decisions can't possibly know enough to make competent decisions. That's in fact how the structure of corporations was created right from the very beginning, from the invention of the corporation. It was designed explicitly as a way of filtering information up to the top, and filtering it at each step it gets reduced, and so you have somebody who is at the top of a corporation that's way larger than what anybody ever dreamed of in the 1860s, when corporations were invented to manage nationwide railroads, now they're managing corporations like GE, where the CEO is making decisions about the toaster division, the nuclear reactor division, the television news division, the pharmaceuticals, the investing division, an insane set of businesses, each with its own deep complexity, and one person at the top is supposed to be making decisions about all of them. There's nobody who can possibly know enough to make those decisions. You just can't. And so when we see things really scale up on the net, as we do with Wikipedia or some of the large collaborative projects like Linux and Debian and the like, the decision making changes, and rather than thinking, oh, we'll find one person who's smart enough to make decisions, no, we have a network, let's do this in a networked way. And what are networks good at? Well, if a decision can be kept local, the person who knows most about the thing is the person who is dealing with it every day, the local decision. And when it's too hard or has too many effects, then let's spread this out throughout the network through discussion and through argument, and let's come up with new ways, which are in fact being invented, that allow in some cases a vote, or in some cases require consensus. Or in the case of the IETF, which is responsible for much of the technology of the internet, they hum. At an IETF meeting, to signify assent, everybody hums. Why do they hum? Probably because it's a little quirky, we'll start with that, but also because you can't tell who's humming and who isn't, so people are more free to express their genuine feelings without feeling the social pressure to go one way or another. And also, it makes a really nice noise that expresses the consensus. Now I'm not saying this is the only way networks can make decisions, but when you have a new environment, a new network, a new infrastructure that can scale in a way the old can't, you do want to see innovative new ways of making decisions that take advantage of it.

making people that are more than human
Wideo
80%1,613 wyświetleńWhen it comes to genocide, it's a sort of breeding. It's negative eugenics. You subtract the people you don't want. Who ‘you’ is, is up for question, but this has gone on throughout the ages, in the name of war, in the name of social hygiene. But no we have something where we can start to add. This is called positive eugenics. That's double good. Sounds like 1984, right? Double-good genics. Eu-eugenics. And positive eugenics means you are not taking away people that are less than human, you’re making people that are more than human. Extrahuman, superhuman. Adding genes to make superhumans implies that the people that are not superfit through technology will eventually die off, because they're not as fit. But it’s not as cruel as making them die. You just let them wilt away. So it’s a different kind of eugenics. It's posed like things like human enhancement, human optimisation, human advancement. I talked to a scientist who prefers not to be named and I said: ‘What do you think about human enhancement?’ And he said: ‘Well, we’re not going anywhere now.’ My feeling is that love, lust, abandon, have guided diversity for a long time, and to a great degree there is a movement in science, quietly or not so quietly, towards letting reason or rationality take over where love left of. So the rationalization of our heredity. And I’m not sure what I think about that. Actually, I trust lust. I trust lust more then reason myself. I would like a cure for AIDS, I would like a cure for diabetes, I would like a cure for cystic fibrosis and Fragile X. Gene therapy is working on it. But the places that I look at are gene therapy, fertility centres and human embryonic stem cell engineering, when these come together again. So this is something that got divided earlier in our history. Genetic engineering, animal husbandry and family planning were divided when eugenics supposedly fell apart. They're now coming back together, so we are animals, we are being husband and wife-ized, not just through family planning, but through genetic engineering. And it's happening at the hospital, during gene therapy trials with human subjects, it's happening in fertility centres, especially non-state sponsored fertility centres, and it’s happening, how do I say, the genes that put into human embryonic stem cells happen to be the genes that will also work with human embryos in fertility centres. So if we bring these three technologies together, we find that we are already working on ourselves. I know, because I talk to people. I’ll go to a hospital and I’ll talk to Recombinant Safety, in charge of human subjects in gene therapy, and I say: ‘What are you worried about? Are you worried about this thing going airborne?’ Because they put a virus in someone’s arm and try to cure their pancreatic cancer. And they say: ‘Well, we do quarantine people for a week. We’re afraid of viral shedding. If they get a clod and it’s similar to the adino virus that we knocked out and added our gene to, it’s weakened, but if it gets on a real cold it can go airborne. So we quarantine them. And we also tend to use women that are postmenopausal, but we ask them to take a birth control pill.’ They’re so scared that people are going to get pregnant during a gene therapy trial, because then a transgenic human would be born, which means the technology's there, but the public's not ready. And so they don't want to do anything to upset the apple cart right now. But I can tell you, science is always fifty years ahead and the technology is here, so there are little astronauts about three or four years old ready to go to Mars in ten years. They’re going to send them. So they already made those Mars travellers. No normal human can go on that Mars mission in 2018. So they're in.

Goel: Appropriation of technology
Wideo
80%786 wyświetleńWe should be aware and responsible as global citizens about... I think science or technology is neither good nor bad. It's a tool. It’s the consciousness with which we as human beings use it that determines whether it's used for good or for bad. A good example is nuclear technology. Nuclear technology by itself is neutral. We can use it to save our planet from an energy crisis or we can use it to destroy our planet, and the choice is really up to us. I think it puts a heightened responsibility on scientists, technologists, innovators, business leaders, global thought leaders, politicians, humanitarians, on everybody, to really think through, not just the science or technology, but the entire deployment and the entire development of that and how you bring it to the people. That’s partly the inspiration behind what I did in Nanobiosym with the three different levels. One is the science and technology creation, which is pure science and technology for the fun of it. Or not for the fun of it, but for the inspiration of what they can do. The second is at the business level. We can also help to open, for example, financial paradigms, if you will, where you can actually help people, you can make a product available at lower cost, cheaper, and cut your own profit margins so more people in the world can benefit from it. So the sort of bottom-of-the-pyramid high-volume kind of markets. That’s kind of opening a new kind of thinking even in the for-profit sector. And then at the global level, partnering with governments, NGOs and stuff to try to get them to deploy these technologies in a way that's beneficial for humanity rather than vice versa. So doing that early on, engaging people in this innovation, in this advent of these new technologies, so that they're stakeholders, not just in the technology, but in the deployment and how it's brought to the world.

Spink: Information - cognitive change in meaning
Wideo
80%842 wyświetleńWe associate technology with information, but from an information behaviourist perspective, information is that what changes people's cognitive state. So information is not something that can be stored, that's data. Information is something that actually causes, that relates to cognitive change in people's understanding or meaning. You can't really have information without meaning. So I think that's much more of a psychological, behavioural view of information. While I think we tend to be dominated by the technology view. The hard sciences’ view of information which for humans is not very helpful. It's helpful for data communications people, but it's not very helpful for ordinary people. I think one of the problems is that we're not really helping ordinary people understand their day-to-day behaviours. That is one of the great things about psychology, that psychologists popularised terms, so people now talk about extraversion and intraversion, they talk about... Like if you ask someone to diagnose their own personality, they can probably do it, because they have that understanding that psychology has given them. Whereas information behaviour has not yet given people the tools to understand and describe their own behaviours. So I think this is a challenge we're only just starting to realize.

Big empowerment moments for cultural creatives
Wideo
80%1,035 wyświetleńThere are certain marker events for the cultural creatives. What the planet first looked like from space is an icon. Right? Now at this moment we may think, “Oh, is that not just kind of boring,” but at the time it appeared it was utterly thrilling for the first time to say, “Oh, my God, there are no lines of national boundaries on the picture of the planet from space.” But what came later, were the satellite photos showing how much of the Amazon was being devastated. This is the lungs of the planet, and it is being destroyed, burned off at an fantastically fast rate. That is one.Another moment that is terribly important, is when Martin Luther King picked up from Gandhi the peaceful non-violent resistance to bad things that has become a standard now for non-violence in all the different movements, and often the news media say that a good protest is a non-violent, morally superior protest as opposed to the old kind of violent protest. We are looking at a watershed appearing where we are demanding a certain kind of morality in public life.Another watershed was when Rachel Carson published the book ‘Silent Spring' in 1962, which was essentially bringing forth the idea of environment. ‘Silent Spring' said, “If the bird and the bees and the frogs around the pond die, your children will die.” This was not trivial. Suddenly people who had been hearing about preserving pretty areas and keeping pollution out of the rivers in their backyards, got a very different idea. “My children are going to die, now this is serious, we have to do something about it.” So ‘Silent Spring' was a pivot point, when the environmental movement suddenly took off, in terms of influencing people. I am not talking about being politically succesful, but in terms of influencing people, the environmental movement is the most successful social movement in history. At this moment in time around the entire planet, from 70-90 percent of the people, even in illiterate peasant areas, believe there is an environment, that there is a planet which is in trouble because the environment is in trouble. It is just stunning. It does not matter what country you do the survey in, people know that there is such a thing as an environment and it is in trouble and something ought to be done about it. Now that shift in perception and world view is just fundamental. Have the politicians agreed? No. There is too much money coming in from big business to counter that, but the whole perception of the population has shifted and you can point the finger precisely to the moment when it started, with ‘Silent Spring'. And that got made into a TV series and all that.Interestingly, the same year as ‘Silent Spring', Betty Friedan published ‘The Feminine Mystique'. So the women's movement which had started with women's voting rights a century earlier and had gone to sleep then, started waking up again. The key thing about ‘The Feminine Mystique' is that this was the starting point for women saying that people need to be authentic, you need to show who you really are and you need to really bring forth women's concerns into the public. When I say cultural creatives are taking women's ideas and emotional concerns and bringing them out into public life for the very first time, that again started right there with ‘The Feminine Mystique'. So you can often point to very precise things.The Battle of Seattle, the World Trade Organization protest in Seattle in – what year was that? 2000 or 1999? – anyway, the Battle of Seattle was the first time that 20 kinds of movements came together and shared a protest, and they got the whole thing organized in a very short period of time for very little money, and it was very effective, they just shut down a power grab by multinational corporations who were trying to change the rules of the environment and of trade, and overrule governments in the name of corporate hegemony, and that was a fundamental shift. When the movements discovered that they liked each other, that they were not separate after all, that they all shared not only the same values, but when they worked together it was just fine, and at the same time they learned to use the internet to mobilize very rapidly very successfully. And that has been copied ever since, by Porto Alegre movements and so on. That is part of a fundamental shift, where you see technology moving and then the perception of “oh, we are all in this together.” They discovered fog has gone, mountain range is there. All these movements are one big thing. So that moment of discovery was partly the Battle of Seattle and partly the Porto Alegre people following through, saying, “Yes, a new world is possible.” When Porto Alegre people said “a new world is possible,” that was a moment of empowerment not around pushing away bad stuff only, but also where do we want to go? What do we want to create together? And that is a major shift.

Post-IT era - improve business performance
Wideo
80%1,079 wyświetleńWe will certainly see a lot of very innovative and interesting solutions that are going to be leveraging big data. Because just the little that we have seen so far, has been pretty innovative and mind-boggling in terms of the possibilities: how market campaigns are being run; how people are reaching their consumers; how they are turning the intent to buy into an actual transaction; how telecommunications, for example, with a lot of information coming from call data records, how they are preventing customer churn, how they are improving customer satisfaction? So I think the businesses that really get their arms around big data will see that their consumer satisfaction could reach a level that they had not seen before. Because when we say that, there is a lot of talk about really getting a 360 view of the customer. And getting a 360 view of the customer is possible if you get all the 360 view of the data. If you can't get all of the access to the data, there's no way you can get a 360 view of the customer. So this desire to gain a 360 view of the customer is now possible, which means that you can really satisfy those customers, you can really grow your business to meet their demands: introduce new kinds of offerings, new kinds of services or products that we will see come into the market place that will be different, will be more appealing to the customers, I think. And of course from a technology standpoint, in the ability to throw data and uncover patterns, there is a lot of advancement that has been made, but it just needs to continue, because this has to be very accurate. There can be no mistakes there. So in terms of the algorithms that we have seen develop and will continue to see develop, this will make the figuring out of patterns in data more and more accurate, quicker and faster. And to be able to just take any data and be able to see what patterns emerge, that is something that sometimes I try to visualize: You throw data at something and you see beautiful patterns emerging. When I say beautiful patterns, I mean it would be beautiful for the business users, where they will find: 'Wow, we did not know that this was happening.' So I think from a technology standpoint, I really feel that this whole uncovering and discovering of patterns, being able to visualize those patterns, and being able to build your predictive models on it better and better, is really what is going to make this next set of solutions and applications on big data completely fascinating.

80%933 wyświetleńMore research actually crosses the whole boundaries between the biological and the non-biological, so it is looking at the merger between the two of them: the humans and technology or animals and technology. So I do research with robotics to see what artificial intelligence can produce. And I do some research as far as humans and the medical side, how the human brain works. So I do work with surgeons, but where I am really excited is the mixture. In that sense, the implant experiments that I have done, I think for me have opened up things that are possible, particularly my last implant experiment which had an implant into my nervous system. So neuro surgeons fired one hundred electrodes to plug my nervous system into a computer and then onto the internet. So really we were looking at the bi-directional communication between the human nervous system and the internet, and all the possibilities that opens up.
