#Science/#Society: "This #bias is explicit for Sir John Houghton, a former #IPCC vice president who is not only an eminent climatologist but also a fervent catholic and zealous proselytiser. Houghton has made a great contribution to the #climate cause, and no-one could accuse ...
... him of ignoring the magnitude of the challenge. Nevertheless, when he was asked one day if he was an #optimist or a #pessimist, he replied: ‘I am an optimist for three reasons; #scientists the world over are working hard and collaborating, the necessary #technologies are ...
... available, and #God takes care of His creation’. Taken to this extreme, his #optimism borders on recklessness. But this quote speaks volumes about the limited view of some #scientists, religious or not, who, between their ultra-specialised domain and 'human nature' ...

The world is constantly evolving and progress is being made every day. The #achievements of the past, no matter how great they may seem, are quickly becoming obsolete in the face of new demands and expectations.

In a minute dear young professionals, here's my charge for... Image
the new week as we take charge at our various jobs and businesses.

In today's fast-paced society, it's not enough to simply rely on past #success. To remain relevant and competitive, we must continuously strive for improvement and excellence.
The demand for #performance is higher now than it has ever been. The bar has been raised, and it's up to each of us to meet and exceed it. Whether you're an athlete, a student, or a business professional, you are expected to perform at the highest level.

The Circular Economy model is one that requires organisations across the value chain to explore adopting #disruptive #technologies based on improving asset life; adopting mechanisms for reusing, repairing and remanufacturing in the production process.
jbs.cam.ac.uk/executive-educ…
The aim of #circularity is to put back into the system everything relating to #production #distribution and #consumption in order to extract as much value as possible from the #resources and #materials we utilise.
The Circular Economy can be considered as an enabler to achieving overall #sustainability in our #economy

She is Gladys West, one of the mathematians responsible for developing GPS, a technology that has changed the way we play, work, navigate, and explore our communities..
"When you're working every day, you're not thinking, 'What impact is this going to have on the world?' You're thinking, 'I've got to get this right,'" West once said in an interview with The Associated Press.
Despite suffering major stroke,heart surgery and cancer,
She was working for most of her life. Now at 92, she has written her memoir and going strong.
Hats off to this role model.

இது ‘COMFORT ZONE’ எனப்படும் பிரபலமான பொறி பற்றிய கதை.

ஓர் ஊரில் ராமு மற்றும் சோமு இரண்டு எலிகள் வாழ்ந்துவந்தது.

இருவருக்குமே தானியம் நிரப்பப்பட்ட ஜாடி கொடுக்கப்பட்டது. ராமு அதைச் சுற்றி இவ்வளவு உணவைக் கண்டதில் மிகவும் மகிழ்ச்சியடைந்தது.

#technologies #risks #ComFortzon
சில நாட்களில், அது ஜாடியின் அடிப்பகுதியை அடைந்தது. இப்போது அது சிக்கிக்கொண்டது.

சோமுவும் மகிழ்ச்சியாக இருந்தது ஆனால் அது தன்னைச் சுற்றி உணவை வேட்டையாடுவதில் மகிழ்ச்சி அடைகிறது (ரிஸ்க் எடுப்பது ). அதனால் பாதியிலேயே சாப்பிட்டு விட்டுச் செல்கிறது.
நமது வாழ்க்கையிலும் இதேதான் நடக்கிறது.

சிலர் நிறுவனங்களில் வேலை கிடைத்ததும், சவால் இல்லாத வேலை, மிகவும் சொகுசாக உணர்கின்றனர் ஆனால் தனிப்பட்ட வளர்ச்சி இல்லை. காலாவதியான தொழில்நுட்பங்கள் / கருவிகளில் சிக்கித் தவிக்கின்றனர்.

Al Gore (#WEF trustee) et al. are SO CONCERNED about the climate, that they in the process of turning all of #nature into a new asset class – where they will OWN nature, manage/control nature, & profit from nature (via "Natural Asset Companies").

#COP27 #EmergingMarkets #30x30 Image
Of course, this has nothing to do w/ Gore's Generation Investment (#hedgefund co-founded w/ David Blood from Goldman Sachs), #BlackRock, saving capitalism, or the expansion of #privatization. Rather, it's to save the planet.

The $4,000 trillion #climate wealth opportunity.

"We know that #NaturalClimateSolutions are a critical part of the transition to #NetZero & we've known this for quite some time. Why is it so difficult for us in finance [] to put a value on nature?" Image

A Picture tells a 1,000 Stories: This one show how #China dominates the production of key #cleanenergy technologies such as #solar, #wind, #batteries as well as the key #commodities that go into them.
I am thankful for the #Chinese and their great entrepreneurs for ramping up production as they have helped bring the costs of these #technologies down substantially.
#China has understood early the huge growth opportunity with these technologies and thet have also understood the strategic importance of #cleanenergy and supported their companies along their growth paths. Meanwhile, back in the #US and #Europe….well the picture says everything

#Climate negotiations are entering a new & challenging phase. Many countries need to do more to lower greenhouse gas emissions to keep the targets in the 2015 #Paris agreement alive.

Ahead of #COP27, multilateral climate negotiations are stalling due to geopolitical tensions, distrust between the global south and high-income countries, and concerns about #energysupplies.
@ECFRPower
It is necessary to move faster in implementing #emissions-reduction measures, but the need for consensus in the global #climate process makes this difficult.

I have never been as positive about our #energy #future as I am these days. Not alone do we have the #technologies and the knowhow to #decarbonise but we have massive retooling taking place in #China and the #US around key future energy technologies
Such as #solar, #wind, #batteries, #digitalisation, nextgeneration #nuclear, as well as significant technology breakthroughs in #geothermal, #heatpumps #tidalenergy, #hydrogen
What we do need to change is the negativity around #climatechange. It was thus great to read this article from @greendig criticising the god father of #energyhistory Vaclav Smil

"Why Certain Technologies Are Creepy - And What Engineers Can Do About It" - This week's edition of The Privacy Whisperer is out, and it's about #privacy and creepy #technologies: theprivacywhisperer.com/p/why-certain-…

🧵 (1/8)
Technology is immensely powerful, it can bring so many positive transformations. However, humans must always be the focus. It does not matter how innovative a certain technology is, there should always be adequate constraints and mechanisms to support humans & prevent harm.
(2/8)
I show how AirTags used by abusive ex-partners and stalkers, deepfakes in non-consensual pornography, and automated gender recognition software are forms of creepy technologies that can be used to oppress and harm people.

"#Imitation vs #Innovation: Large #Language and Image Models as Cultural #Technologies"

Today's Seminar by SFI External Prof @AlisonGopnik (@UCBerkeley)

Streaming now:


Follow our 🧵 for live coverage.
"Today you hear people talking about 'AN #AI' or 'THE AI.' Even 15 years ago we would not have heard this; we just heard 'AI.'"
@AlisonGopnik on the history of thought on the #intelligence (or lack thereof) of #simulacra, linked to the convincing foolery of "double-talk artists":
"We should think about these large #AI models as cultural technologies: tools that allow one generation of humans to learn from another & do this repeatedly over a long period of time. What are some examples?"

@AlisonGopnik suggests a continuity between #GPT3 & language itself:

#Blockchain & Global #SupplyChains

🏗At Comdex, we are on a mission to revolutionize how the world interacts with #commodity commerce.

🔧Our commitment to modernizing this industry is steadfast; we believe that the future belongs to those who work smarter (not harder).
🚢Blockchain doesn't only have the potential to transform the way it conducts commodity trading; it can also improve the way those commodities are transported.

⛓While the supply chain has enabled globalization, its weaknesses have been brought to the forefront.
📦Due to antiquated technology and physically maintained paper audit trails; legacy #SupplyChains are largely inefficient.

💻While this method of record-keeping happens to be an industry standard, there is an opportunity to gain efficiency via blockchain #technology.

…Great Power Competition. Underscored by a multipolar world order with overlapping spheres of influence, this comp. is leading to jostling between nations on day-to-day basis, across regions and domains. …if unchecked or unregulated is likely to lead to conflict: Navy Chief
We are all aware that at the operational and tactical level, this competition is already manifesting in the form of greyzone warfare, hybrid warfare, salami slicing, etc: @indiannavy Chief Adm Harikumar on Great Power competition #IndoPacific #IOR

The case for #interoperability and #ICON’s Blockchain Transmission Protocol (#BTP) $ICX
#cryptocurrency #blockchain #metaverse

A thread! 👇
There are many similarities between the internet and #blockchain in terms of how the #technologies have dawned and evolved. This will, undoubtedly, continue going forward. Much like the dawn of the internet, there are isolated networks operating with their own rules and uses.
Really, this was pre-internet because, initially, the internet was just a connection between similarly isolated networks of computers. But as the #technology was refined and became more desirable and used, this network of networks grew into what we know as the #internet today.
