Over the last decade, Vodafone and SES have taken the Cook Islands from high-frequency radio to high-speed broadband using the SES MEO satellite network. The next phase in the partnership deploys the advanced satellite constellation O3b mPOWER to provide fast and reliable 4G+ connectivity to the remotest part of the archipelago.In the first of five podcast episodes, Satellite Stories host Kristina Smith-Meyer explores how and why the partnership between VCI and SES first began.Featuring: Phillip Henderson, CEO of Vodafone Cook IslandsAlan Cheng, sales manager (Pacific), SESTo find out more, visit ses.com/o3b-mpower/o3b-mpower-stories/taking-nation-forward
Aunque existe criterio unánime respecto de la imperiosa necesidad de que el país avance sin dilación en el despliegue de la red 5G (la quinta generación de tecnología móvil) no hay tal unanimidad respecto de la inesperada decisión del gobierno de la República de excluir -aparentemente por razones políticas y no con fundamento en criterios técnicos- mucha de la infraestructura actualmente desplegada por los tres operadores de telecomunicaciones con tecnología Hauwei (China). Se trata de un asunto complejo y con múltiples aristas. Todos por supuesto, queremos contar con las ventajas de la tecnología móvil más nueva. Pero no entendemos nada respecto de cómo se despliegan las redes, cuáles son las inversiones que deben hacerse, cuánto cuestan y quiénes deben pagar por ello. Más difícil aún es comprender que todo esto pueda formar parte de lo que algunos llaman la guerra fría de las telecomunicaciones entre China y Estados Unidos que, en todo caso, es una batalla de muy alta temperatura. Y ahí es donde parece radicar hoy el desafío tico. En el mes de agosto se sucedieron varios hechos relevantes de esa puja geopolítica de la que ya somos parte. Nos visitó la jefa del Comando Sur y advirtió de la preocupación de su país respecto de las inversiones chinas en “infraestructura crítica”. La Embajada China reaccionó con molestia: “Latinoamérica no es el patio trasero de Estados Unidos”, argumentó. Apenas ocho días después, el presidente Chaves viajaba sorpresivamente a la Casa Blanca y anunciaba que el ICE “y eventualmente, todos los proveedores públicos y privados de 5G, se limitarán a comprar tecnología de equipos para 5G solo a proveedores confiables”. Y el 31 de agosto se publicaba un polémico decreto que estableció la obligación de no contratar servicios con empresas que no hayan ratificado el convenio de Budapest sobre ciberseguridad, que según expertos no tiene nada que ver con lo que se pretende, que en la práctica es evitar el despliegue de 5G sobres las redes existentes de 4G lo cual implica multimillonarias inversiones para los tres operadores de telecomunicaciones del país; particularmente para Kolbi. Ahora, ¿cómo salimos de este embrollo lo mejor librados que nos sea posible, cuando se advierte hasta de posibles litigios internacionales? ¿Cuánto se podría atrasar el despliegue de 5G por esta circunstancia? Para muchas de las preguntas pendientes, conversamos con el especialista Juan Manuel Campos, de Ciber Regulación.
Quatrième épisode de notre série « nouvelles routes de la soie, dix ans après ». Des centaines de « méga-projets » financés par Pékin ont vu le jour en Afrique où ils suscitent l'optimisme des populations mais aussi parfois le scepticisme. Le partenariat « gagnant-gagnant » vanté par la Chine a-t-il réellement profité aux pays partenaires ? Réponse au Kenya, en Zambie, en Ouganda et au Sénégal, où Albane Thirouard, Romain Chanson, Lucie Mouillaud et Théa Olivier ont emprunté ces « nouvelles routes de la soie ». Il faut compter cinq à six heures de train pour relier Nairobi, la capitale kényane, à Mombasa, ville portuaire de la côte Est. La ligne, lancée en 2017, est le plus grand projet chinois au Kenya : 3,2 milliards de dollars, financés presque intégralement par un prêt de Pékin.Cet après-midi, au départ de Nairobi, le wagon est rempli. Lilith Omboko, l'une des passagères, travaille à Mombasa. Elle prend le train toutes les deux semaines. « C'est beaucoup mieux que ce que nous avions avant, se réjouit-elle. Le train prenait beaucoup plus de temps, jusqu'à 12 heures. Alors les gens utilisaient surtout le bus, parfois l'avion mais c'est plus cher. »Il faut compter 1 000 shillings kényans soit sept dollars pour un ticket en classe économique. À l'entrée du wagon, le drapeau de la Chine trône à côté de celui du Kenya. À Mombasa, les voyageurs sont accueillis par la statue du grand explorateur chinois du XIVe siècle, Zheng He. Un personnage historique aujourd'hui figure de proue des « nouvelles routes de la soie ».Moins de profits qu'attenduEn 2022, la ligne a permis de transporter plus de deux millions de voyageurs mais aussi des marchandises. Son point de départ, le port de Mombasa, est stratégique pour Pékin. « L'intérêt pour le pays s'inscrit dans l'objectif à long-terme de Pékin, qui est de connecter l'océan Indien avec l'intérieur du continent africain, explique Peter Kagwanja, à la tête du think-thank kényan Africa policy institute. L'idée est de débarquer ses biens à Mombasa, de les acheminer jusqu'au Congo puis d'atteindre la côte atlantique et ainsi de faire du commerce avec l'Amérique ».Le développement du port de Mombasa a toutefois été entaché par des affaires de corruption et de mauvaise gestion. Des critiques régulières contre les projets financés avec des prêts chinois au Kenya et aux bénéfices très décevants. C'est le cas de la ligne Nairobi-Mombasa, déplore Michael Mchege, économiste à l'Université de Nairobi.« Nous nous retrouvons à devoir utiliser l'argent du contribuable pour rembourser le prêt alors que 60% des revenus de l'État vont déjà dans le remboursement de la dette. Cette dette, ce n'est pas que la Chine d'ailleurs. La part de la Chine c'est environ 20%. Mais le problème, c'est que les autres bailleurs sont prêts à s'asseoir pour négocier un rééchelonnement de la dette, mais pas Pékin. »À Mombasa, les habitants rencontrés semblent, eux, loin de ces débats. Ces critiques n'ont pas empêché non plus le président kényan William Ruto d'évoquer de futurs projets avec la Chine en juillet dernier (2023) lors d'une rencontre avec Wang Yi, chef de la diplomatie chinoise.Emprunts chinois en Zambie : « On en a payé les conséquences »Nous mettons maintenant le cap vers la Zambie où l'influence de la Chine est financière. Nous arrivons au terminal 2 de l'aéroport international de Lusaka, financé et construit par des Chinois. La Chine détient la moitié de la dette zambienne. Dans un premier temps, ce recours massif à l'emprunt a favorisé le développement du pays. Éric Rambeloson est un entrepreneur français qui vit à Lusaka depuis plus de 20 ans, il a vu l'évolution de la Zambie et ses dérives.« En 2011, il y a eu un changement de parti. Le président de l'époque [Michael Sata] a voulu se focaliser sur l'investissement d'infrastructures. La Chine étant présente, ils se sont tournés vers Pékin. On en a payé les conséquences par la suite. »Le 18 novembre 2020, en pleine pandémie du Covid-19, les autorités annoncent ne plus être en mesure de rembourser ses créanciers. La dette, et le défaut de paiement qui a suivi, ont profondément fragilisé l'économie zambienne, explique Peter Mumba, coordinateur de l'Alliance de la dette, une organisation de la société civile.« La dette a eu des conséquences sur quasiment l'ensemble des Zambiens. Si vous regardez le budget du pays pour 2022, près de la moitié est consacrée au remboursement de la dette. Ce fardeau a eu un effet sur des éléments fondamentaux de l'économie comme l'inflation, le taux de change et par conséquent, la hausse du coût de la vie. »Flambée des prixAu City Market, le plus grand marché de Lusaka, la question du coût de la vie fait consensus entre clients et commerçants : les produits de base sont trop chers. Anna Muvenga vend du pain de mie sur un coin de rue. « Le prix du pain augmente, le coût de la vie est de plus en plus cher... On se bat pour survivre. Il y a beaucoup de produits qui deviennent chers, ça fait deux ans que ça dure. »Robert Mwansa est un passant qui ne comprend pas comment la Zambie, un pays riche en ressources naturelles comme le cuivre, se retrouve à manquer d'argent. « La Zambie produit énormément d'argent chaque année, plus de 20 milliards de dollars par an, donc je ne comprends pas pourquoi cette dette fait souffrir le peuple. On a assez de ressources pour effacer cette dette, l'Afrique est le continent le plus riche du monde, la Zambie est aussi une terre de richesses. »Robert Mwansa reconnaît que le pays manquait cruellement d'infrastructures et que les nouveaux aménagements sont les bienvenus. Mais une limite a été franchie.Si j'avais l'occasion de recommencer, je ferais la même choseCe ressentiment s'est d'ailleurs exprimé dans les urnes en 2021, lorsque le président Edgar Lungu a dû laisser sa place à Hakainde Hichilema, moins proche des Chinois. Brian Mundubile, ancien membre du gouvernement et chef des députés du Front patriotique était aux premières loges pour observer la dette enfler. Nous le rencontrons à l'Assemblée nationale. « Si j'avais l'occasion de recommencer, dit-il, et bien je ferais la même chose. Je suis sûr que vous avez atterri dans un très bon aéroport, tout le monde l'aime, nous aussi ! J'aime également notre réseau de télécommunications dans tout le pays. Ces emprunts étaient nécessaires. »Le plan ne s'est pas déroulé comme prévu, dit pudiquement Brian Mundubile. Les retombées économiques espérées ont été empêchées par les ravages d'une sécheresse, puis du Covid-19.En juin 2023, la Chine a fini par accepter de venir à la table des négociations pour restructurer la dette zambienne. Une bulle d'oxygène qui doit permettre à l'économie du pays de se relancer. Les prévisions de croissance sont bonnes. Les « nouvelles routes de la soie » chinoises ne feront pas de détour, elles continuent de passer par la Zambie.L'Ouganda « devait créer un compte bancaire avec du cash »Kampala, la capitale ougandaise, est une autre étape incontournable de l'itinéraire tracé par Pékin. Sur de nombreux chantiers de travaux publics, des inscriptions en mandarin fleurissent, signe de la domination des entreprises chinoises dans le secteur.Ces contrats juteux inquiètent pour leur manque de transparence. Fin 2021, un média local révèle les conditions du prêt accordé par Pékin pour l'agrandissement de l'aéroport d'Entebbe, seul aéroport international du pays. Certaines de ces modalités sont jugées « scandaleuses » par Jane Nalunga.« Le gouvernement chinois devait approuver le budget et le plan stratégique de l'Autorité civile d'Aviation ougandaise, qui est l'autorité en charge de l'aéroport, détaille la directrice d'un think-tank en recherche économique. Le budget devait d'abord être approuvé, avec peu de dépenses programmées car il fallait rembourser ! Ensuite, le gouvernement ougandais devait créer un compte bancaire où il déposait du cash dans le cas où il échouerait à rembourser l'emprunt et manquait à ses obligations. La Chine avait le droit de saisir cet argent. »Le ministre ougandais des Finances Mattias Kasaija avait à l'époque bien reconnu des « failles » dans les négociations. Des négociations qu'il avait toutefois défendues devant les députés en novembre 2021. « Nous avons vu que c'était l'alternative la moins chère, et nous avons sauté sur l'occasion, avait-il déclaré. Je pourrais m'excuser et dire que nous n'aurions pas dû accepter certaines de ces clauses, mais comme je vous l'ai dit, le prix, c'est que c'est à prendre ou à laisser ! »Au Sénégal, un data center équipé par le géant chinois HuaweiCap à l'ouest du continent, où les « nouvelles routes de la soie » atteignent le Sénégal. Dans le pays, l'influence de la Chine est numérique. Hautes barrières, fils électrifiés, gendarmes à l'entrée. Le très sécurisé data center se trouve au milieu des chantiers de Diamniadio, ville nouvelle à une trentaine de kilomètres de Dakar. Inauguré en juin 2022, ce centre a été financé par la coopération chinoise.Derrière une porte sécurisée, se trouve le cœur du data center. Au milieu d'une salle de 250 m2, trois conteneurs – des modules confinés dans le jargon – renferment des serveurs qui stockent les précieuses données. 80 à 90% d'entre elles viennent des ministères, des agences nationales, des mairies ou des préfectures, le reste venant du privé.Certains serveurs sont marqués d'un logo Huawei. Le géant du numérique chinois soupçonné d'espionnage par les États-Unis a en effet équipé le data center. Seydi Cheikh Fall est le responsable de la maintenance et du support. « Il n'y a pas forcément que du Huawei, il y a aussi du Nutanix, du Cisco… L'idée c'est d'avoir un mix qui permet de casser le monopole et de ne pas dépendre d'un constructeur. Côté sécurité, ça permet de ne pas s'ouvrir lorsqu'il y a des attaques qui visent ces failles-là. »Compte tenu de la sensibilité des données, Ousmane Bop, manager des lieux, se veut rassurant sur le choix de travailler avec Huawei. « Huawei est intervenu uniquement dans la construction du data center, dans l'exploitation Huawei n'intervient pas du tout, assure-t-il. On fait un travail d'homologation et de normalisation. La normalisation permet de voir tous les équipements installés au niveau du site, de les tester, de voir les failles et d'être sûrs qu'ils peuvent accueillir les services de nos clients ».Il est clair que la question de la dépendance numérique se poseEn plus du data center, la Chine a installé 4 500 km de fibre optique au Sénégal, construit les réseaux 3G et 4G, et peut-être bientôt la 5G. Cela fait de Pékin le principal partenaire étranger dans le secteur mais pas le seul explique, Cheikh Bakhoum, directeur général de Sénégal Numérique. « Nous avons reçu des investissements de la Chine, mais également d'autres pays, comme Israël, les États-Unis, ou ceux de l'Union européenne. Aujourd'hui, la Chine est un des acteurs majeurs avec qui nous travaillons dans le domaine du numérique. Mais au Sénégal, il n'y a pas d'exclusivité. Nous sommes ouverts à tous les pays. »Nous terminons notre route africaine de la soie à l'Université Cheikh Anta Diop de Dakar, à la rencontre d'Ibrahima Niang, spécialiste des relations Chine-Sénégal. « Les groupes qui étaient avant présents sur le marché tels qu'Alcatel, ou Ericsson ne le sont plus parce que Huawei est parvenu à gagner des parts de marché. Il est clair que la question de la dépendance numérique se pose à partir de ce moment », explique-t-il.Pour les pays africains intégrés aux « nouvelles routes de la soie », la dépendance est avant tout d'ordre économique. Plusieurs observateurs estiment que la Chine peut tout à fait être un partenaire choisi, mais qu'elle ne doit pas être le seul, au risque pour ces États africains de rester en marge des chaînes de valeur et du commerce mondial.

This week's EYE ON NPI will "Speak Friend and Enter" your wireless connectivity toolbox, it's TE's LEMBAS LTE/GNSS USB Modem (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/t/te-connectivity-amp/lembas-lte-gnss-usb-modem) an easy-to-use full powered cellular and GPS modem designed specifically to be used with single-board Linux computers (SBCs) to add networking and location tracking with a simple plug-and-play USB connection. We bought one and popped it open - not recommended because it will void your warranty - and found inside is a Quectel EC25-AFXD module (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/quectel/EC25AFXGA-128-SGAS/13278280) - an LTE Cat 4 data-only module with high speed uplink and downlink when LTE is available, and GSM/GPRS backward-compatibility for remote areas. Quectel EC25 is a series of LTE Cat 4 modules optimized specially for M2M and IoT applications. Adopting the 3GPP Rel-11 LTE technology, it delivers maximum data rates up to 150 Mbps downlink and 50 Mbps uplink. Designed in the compact and in a unified form factor, the EC25 series is compatible with Quectel multi-mode LTE Standard EC21 series/EC20-CE/EG25-G/EG21-G modules and UMTS/HSPA+ UC200A-GL module, which allows for flexible migration among them in design and manufacturing... backward-compatible with existing EDGE and GSM/GPRS networks, ensuring that it can be connected even in remote areas devoid of 4G or 3G coverage. EC25 series supports Qualcomm® IZat™ location technology Gen8C Lite (GPS, GLONASS, BDS, Galileo and QZSS). The integrated GNSS greatly simplifies product design, and provides quicker, more accurate and more dependable positioning. The LEMBAS has a lot of little details that shows the design team focused on a high quality build and removing any obstacles to use. For example, instead of a 'USB stick' style modem that blocks all of the USB ports on your raspi, the modem uses any USB Type C cable - this also allows the user to place the LEMBAS wherever the antenna will get best reception. When we opened it up, we noticed that the board was conformal coated (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/coating-grease-repair/642), so it will handle being exposed to humid air, although please note it's not rated for outdoor use. The SIM card is pre-installed but can be removed / replaced easily if a particular data service is desired. We also thought the status LEDs that appear as part of the TE logo showed a cute designer touch. One handy design decision that makes the LEMBAS easy to get started with: inside is a 2-port USB hub (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/texas-instruments/TUSB4020BIPHP/5724124) so that, when plugged into USB, it shows up as both the modem interface and a small USB storage key. On that storage are all the files you need to run to install the modem interface on an Arm32 or Arm64 computer like the Raspberry Pi. This definitely solves the "to get on the internet I have to install my wireless drivers but I can't get onto the internet because I haven't installed my wireless drivers" problem. And of course, there's a GNSS inside as well, which makes this perfect for asset tracking or geo-locating projects where you need to know where the code is running from. It's ready to go in an instant and with native Linux support for cellular modems, you don't need to do any AT command noodling - use Python or node.js or whatever language your application is and open secure sockets like normal. If you've got a hankerin' for a piece of Elvish-quality technology that will let you communicate anywhere in the world, even on the top of Mt. Doom, you can pick up a TE LEMBAS LTE/GNSS USB Modem (https://www.digikey.com/short/4172bndv) from DigiKey today and it will ship to you as fast as a gigantic eagle so that you can get started tomorrow morning... right after second breakfast!

Show Notes: [00:00:03.320] - Mustansir Saifuddin Welcome. [00:00:04.180] - Mustansir Saifuddin To Tech-driven Business brought to you by Innovative Solution Partners. In this episode, I welcome back David C. Williams. Listen in as David shares his thoughts on how organizations can use AI and RPA to move business forward. David dives into the role each plays and how they complement each other to solve business problems. [00:00:27.320] - Mustansir Saifuddin Hello, David. How are you? [00:00:37.300] - David C. Williams Must say I'm doing well. [00:00:42.460] - Mustansir Saifuddin Thank you, David. I'd like to welcome you back to my podcast, Tech-Driven Business. Today, I would like to talk about how RPA and AI is helping organizations. How does that sound to you? [00:00:59.900] - David C. Williams Wonderful. It's an exciting topic, brother. [00:01:07.610] - Mustansir Saifuddin Yeah, I know this is very near and dear to you. In our previous sessions, you had talked about at length, about RPA. I thought this will be a good segue into this conversation. [00:01:21.770] - David C. Williams Wonderful. [00:01:23.000] - Mustansir Saifuddin How is AI and RPA helping organizations increase efficiency in their operations and throughout their business in general? [00:01:34.740] - David C. Williams Well, when I think about it, RPA is, I would say all of hyper automation, but especially RPA, is one of the, if not the least, expensive way to solve a business problem with software. Artificial intelligence is the computing power we've dreamed of. When you take that type of computing power and intelligence and give it a efficient reach like RPA, you can go do a lot of cool things very quickly and it doesn't cost your arm and the leg. [00:02:17.250] - Mustansir Saifuddin I like the way you connected the two. So it seems like they are both connected at the hip in terms of how they are complementing each other. [00:02:29.080] - David C. Williams Yeah. Ai is a brain, right? And just like in a human body, a brain is great, but it can't move anything physically, right? And so you need all these extremities to go about the brain's business every day. That's how I think about AI and RPA coming together. You have the most intelligent computational brain that you could imagine or dream of with mobility of RPA that's so flexible, so ubiquitous, so applicable in so many ways that when you put the two together, it's exponential. [00:03:09.370] - Mustansir Saifuddin That is great. Let's talk about something in terms of leveraging the efficiency part, right? We talk about efficiencies in business, in our general lives, how we can do things faster, better. [00:03:25.920] - Mustansir Saifuddin When we talk about leveraging the efficiency of RPA and the capabilities of AI, what makes it beneficial to a business? Can you give some examples? Talk about that. [00:03:43.690] - David C. Williams Yeah, sure. If you think about the combination of the two things that you could do with this. Let's say you have a workforce that uses some knowledge management system. Well, every day that workforce thumbs through a virtual encyclopedia, right? They thumb through a virtual dictionary to go get information or they query it. [00:04:19.960] - David C. Williams With the advent of generative AI combined with RPA, what you could do is you could use AI to do the querying and summarization of all of that knowledge management. You can use RPA to quickly place that in so many different places to make it more accessible. Yep, we got it. We got the great brain that's going to take all of this stuff and compile it into something that's usable and easy to extract from. But how do I get it over to my field technicians, to my customer service group? How do I leverage that across several systems? Rpa and other components of hyperautomation are very prone, very likely to be the best options to go do that without having to reinvent the wheel. [00:05:18.730] - Mustansir Saifuddin That's a great example you use. That leads me into my next question about you've been doing hyper automation for quite some time, and you had some great success and gains that you saw with that implementation at AT&T. How do you see that journey evolved with the addition of AI now? [00:05:42.030] - David C. Williams Oh, man. Well, I would tell you, when it comes to things like RPA, my team does sit on the very forefront of where all that stuff is going, the way we use it, the conversations we even had with Microsoft on what they're building and enhancing and all that stuff. When I think about where it's going, though, and with AI, AI is going to take our most challenging parts of the development cycle, the most challenging parts of every business or many businesses, and it'll simplify. When I think of that, I think about a world where RPA is even more democratized, where literally any knowledge worker can use RPA. Instead of putting up PowerPoints, we can share prototypes. [00:06:45.660] - David C. Williams That is going to open up an entire universe of innovation and automation. [00:06:53.900] - Mustansir Saifuddin It seems almost like you are fast tracking a lot of things. [00:06:59.900] - David C. Williams Trying to, man. The funny thing about automation is the more you do it, the more folks want it, which is a good thing, but it is still a challenge. As we continue to grow the program, as we continue to help more of our colleagues, coworkers, customers, as more parts of the business depend on the things we create, we look for ways to continue to accelerate. There are a ton of quotes that we believe in and mantra we have on our team. One is that success is momentum over time. As we continue to... We found some success, we built some momentum. It's taking us a little bit of time as we continue to go down this path, we're going to keep driving more momentum. That is the expectation. Honestly, we're positioned for it. The more things that we build, the more we get to leverage. At one point, we were using bricks to build buildings, then we're using buildings to blocks to build cities, cities to build, etc. We're just still lead on that journey, accelerating and looking for ways to continue to accelerate. And that AI version of what I just spoke about is just one area. [00:08:16.220] - David C. Williams There's a ton of other things that we're looking at to automate so that we can accelerate everything that we're doing in that space. [00:08:24.640] - Mustansir Saifuddin That is awesome. When you think about opportunities, what opportunities do you see in this area where AI and RP are working together, the idea of creating this intelligent automation? Where do you see that going? [00:08:42.160] - David C. Williams Well, I think that at a certain point it's going to happen. For those that discover it or leverage it, priced, they will solve more complex business problems at a cheaper price, at a faster pace, and that will impact their competition and so forth and so forth. I think it's just a matter of time. These things, these operations, these big companies, whether you're talking telecom or healthcare, doesn't matter. The efficiency that they can drive helps them to be able to capitalize on the things that they do in those specific industries. Rpa is the least expensive hyperautomation is the least expensive way of solving a business problem with software. I haven't found anything cheaper. You put cognitive capabilities on top of that. That means the more complex things you can get after with the cheapest means of doing it. If you're doing that better than your competitor, look at our competitor. [00:09:57.630] - Mustansir Saifuddin Yeah, for sure. I mean, there's always this conversation about what technology is moving away from or getting a thing of the past. So when you hear people talk about who say that RPA is a thing of the past and the future is AI, what is your response to that? [00:10:19.710] - David C. Williams It's probably a laugh, a chuckle. It would be like saying, Oh, you know what? The Wright brothers have mastered human flight. We've discovered human flight. We all can fly now. There's no need for tires. No need for tires. Nobody needs tires anymore. It's impossible to even think like that. I would say the same about AI and RPA. There is no competition between the two. This is chocolate and peanut butter. They work better together. There is no competition between the two. There is no replacement of one or the other. Your brain will never replace your thumb. Never. I don't care how good of a brain you have. That thumb sure comes in handy. That's how I think about RPA is that it's not that this is the 3G and there's 4G. No, no, no, no, no. This is complementary. As long as you have one, you will want the other. That's what I think about AI and RPA. As long as you have one, you're going to want the other. If you have RPA, you want cognitive capabilities to make those automations smarter so you can automate more things. If you have AI, you want reach and you want quick reach because with AI you get quick answers. [00:11:54.510] - David C. Williams So you want quick, ubiquitous, far, far reaching reach. Rpa gives you that hyper automation gives you that. Putting up Lego blocks together in the right ways, you get exactly that. For those that say that, I guess maybe it may be a little telling, but I don't see it. [00:12:14.950] - Mustansir Saifuddin I love the example you use. That is really great. It just puts things in perspective. I think it's just like the one cannot live without the other. It's almost like a marriage made in heaven. That's awesome. [00:12:28.810] - David C. Williams It really is. I mean, when you think about just how fast AI is able to go get the most complex, sophisticated answers and responses to produce code in seconds, whole paragraphs in seconds, whole reports. When you think about that to have that level of intelligence with the an arm 8,000 miles long, you can do a lot. You can do a whole lot. And so that's, I think, the beauty of AI and RPA coming together. [00:13:10.790] - Mustansir Saifuddin That makes sense. Definitely. For sure. So I guess that takes me to my next point. Based on all that we covered today, what is that one key takeaway that you would want our listeners to leave the session today with? [00:13:29.000] - David C. Williams You got to embrace AI quickly. You got to move safely with it. Don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Rpa is still the future. Rpa still has a huge impact. I would say to many American Airlines is great for getting you from New York to Los Angeles. But if you need tacos delivered on Tuesday at 2:00 PM American Airlines is probably not the place that you want to call. There's probably better options, more suitable options. One is not better than the other. They just have different roles. That's how RPA and AI relationship are. They have different roles that are extremely complementary of each other. [00:14:23.860] - Mustansir Saifuddin I think that's a great way to put it. I like the example you use. I think it seems like a lot of times folks are thinking of one technology versus the other. The way you're explaining or you're rationalizing this whole thing is one is helping the other to be more productive, more efficient, and be more robust together as a business, as a technology that is working together to make things better. [00:14:58.570] - David C. Williams Must have said, I would tell you, brother, that one of the biggest mistakes people make in technology is they want to put all the eggs in one basket. Oh, we're going to have this one thing that's going to do all these things. You know what that's called? They did that a long time ago. It's called the Titanic. It doesn't work well that way. Even if you look at Netflix, Amazon, everything you're looking on a page, it's not just one application. There's so many applications working at once. You just see it in one user interface. And so the same way that those microservices work and they feel like one, but they're all separate is what hyper automation, what RPA is. It feels like one thing, but it's still separate. You put all these things together and you can create something magical versus trying to do this just one big, herculean, Titanic thing. And so I find that putting one and one together, if you get them close enough together, one in one is 11. You get further, faster, you get something exponential. You can skip all the other stuff. That's how I think about AI and RPA coming together. [00:16:17.120] - David C. Williams You get further, faster putting them together. [00:16:20.620] - Mustansir Saifuddin For sure. Now it's been a great session, David. And thank you for sharing your thoughts and your insights into this discussion point. I mean, definitely, there is a lot of progress that needs to be made in this field where both AI and RPA coming together, helping businesses and making our lives better. So I really appreciate your time. Thank you so much for joining our session today. [00:16:49.500] - David C. Williams Thank you. Have a great day. [00:16:58.250] - Mustansir Saifuddin Thanks for listening to Tech-driven Business brought to you by Innovative Solution Partners. David gave a great overview on the power of AI and rpa.

Peggy Smedley and Randy Berry, chair and John A. Dever professor, department of electrical and computer engineering, Northwestern University, talk about the Gs—landing on why 5G is so important. He says G stands for generation, and we mark wireless technologies in these generations that tend to emerge once every 10 years or so. They also discuss: The difference between 4G and 5G. The relationship and convergence between the wired and wireless world. Two trends that feed into cost savings and the rise of artificial intelligence. ece.northwestern.edu (8/15/23 - 834) IoT, Internet of Things, Peggy Smedley, artificial intelligence, machine learning, big data, digital transformation, cybersecurity, blockchain, 5G, cloud, sustainability, future of work, podcast, Randy Berry, Northwestern University This episode is available on all major streaming platforms.

From buying goods to communicating with friends, mobile internet has completely changed how we live our lives. In the continents biggest cities, speedy 4G makes transactions quick and reliable. But in rural areas and poorer countries, data can be slower, temperamental and much more expensive. It means that many people are priced out of getting on line and are missing out on all the benefits that come with it. So, why is data still too expensive in some parts of the continent?
This week we will take a dive into the world of invisible light and its impact on our health. And I'm not talking about infrared light, the wavelength we associate with red light therapy that has positive health benefits; but, rather, the other invisible light that makes up over 99% of the electromagnetic spectrum. In his book, The Invisible Rainbow: A History of Electricity and Life, Arthur Firstenberg chronicles the impact that the evolution of electricity, radiation and non-native electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs) has had on the health of humans and animals since its inception in the late 19th century. This well-written and strongly-cited book by Firstenberg makes a very strong case that the vast majority of health maladies and diseases of the last couple of centuries are actually directly tied to electricity and the iterations of that technology (i.e., the electrical power grid, radio waves, telecommunication, wireless technology, advancements from 3G to 4G to 5G, etc.) versus the paradigm, which we are all too familiar with, of exercise and diet.This book has completely transformed my perception of electricity, the advancement of any technology and its indisputable negative impact on our health. In a nutshell, any human-made, non-native EMF causes metabolic disease, which is tantamount to saying it causes mitochondrial dysfunction. Based on the information presented in the book, provided you are a health conscious individual, you quickly realize you need to start prioritizing EMF-mitigating tactics over diet/exercise tactics. I am not saying you need to get rid of one to include the other, but rather that you can't out-exercise or out-diet/out-supplement dysfunctional mitochondria; you need a strong motor (i.e. mitochondria) before you can get the benefits from the fuel (i.e. diet and exercise). In this episode, I cover one of the more profound chapters, Irritable Heart, in the sense that it clearly demonstrates the impact of electrical technology through various eras and how it has been a silent killer for countless cardiac conditions. In my opinion, 5G is further perpetuating and accelerating the issues outlined in this chapter. I hope you find this information as profound and paradigm-shifting as I do — knowledge is truly power.

New Yorkers speak out on dangers of 5G towers being put up in their neighborhoods. Question is, will the City Council listen? Do our local politicians have the power to even stop the 5G towers from being put up? Americans for Responsible Technology (ART) contends that HR 3557 is a federal bill that will make it difficult for local governments to stop the erecting of more 5G towers. On June 3, 2023, a hearing took place in New York City before the City Council during which many NYC residents spoke out about 32-foot jumbo 5G towers being erected in their neighborhoods. Many complained of serious health effects. Some said they needed to leave their homes due to health concerns. Since we've known for decades now--long before 5G, 4G, or even 3G--that over exposure to EMF (electromagnetic frequency) radiation can be harmful, why are we still needing to explain it to our politicians or even to our friends and neighbors--many of whom will still accuse us of being "conspiracy theorists"? How can we stop this insanity when protesting and speaking out at hearings doesn't seem to work? Will the voices heard during this NY City Council hearing make a difference, or will the PTB (Powers That Be) just continue installing more towers anyhow? What then? In Buffalo, NY, the mad construction work continues. Something is being installed underneath the roads. Hmm... I wonder what it could be... By the way, in case you are wondering, I am a proud conspiracy theorist! Yep, conspiracies abound. That's just how power works. Once people get power, they get together with others who also have power and they all conspire together to maintain their power and status. Why is that hard for some people to believe? We need a term to describe the naive and politically uneducated. How about "Naivete Theorist"? Or maybe "Gullibility Enthusiast"? Are you a "Trust the Science Theorist? A "Fauci Afficianado"? "Celebrity Pseudo-Science Addict"? A "Fauci Fool"? Friends, we need to push back against the anti-conspiracy nuts and come up with a term to describe them because they are the crazy ones. I can't think of anything too clever right now, but we'll think of something. Am I a conspiracy theorist? Uh no. You are an Authority Truster? Am I an antivaxxer? Naw, I'm an anti-authoritarian. I will not comply! Not I!

His name is Nick "The EMF Guy" Pineault. Nick is an advocate for safe technologies. He stumbled onto the dangers of electro-pollution ("EMFs") emitted by wireless technologies several years ago and at first Nick thought this entire issue sounded a bit "tin foil", or “hokey” as some might say... until he discovered it is not. Today on the Strong By Design podcast, Nick and host Chris Wilson talk candidly about what EMF is, why we should be worried about exposure, the dangers of radiation and cell towers, what 3G, 4G and 5G mean and how to treat our relationship with our phones. He is the bestselling author of 'The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs' and host of the Smarter Tech Podcast. Nick's book is backed by bestselling author, podcaster, world renowned fitness expert and famed biohacker Ben Greenfield as well as world-leading scientist and authority in the field of EMF radiation Olle Johansson, PhD. “Now we are exposed to the 3G, 4G, and 5G towers. They are installed everywhere so we have a densification of that pollution… We should lower exposure but what we are doing is the exact opposite. The city environment becomes increasingly stressful to the body.” - Nick Pineault the EMF Guy Time Stamps 01:10 – Welcome to the ‘Strong by Design' podcast 2:37 - Get to know today's special guest, Nick Pineault, the EMF Guy 4:49 - Electromagnetic Fields (EMF): What is it, and should you be worried about the EMF exposure? 7:49 - Discover the ALARA principles for minimizing radiation exposure 11:46 - Nick shares the dangers of Wi-Fi radiation & cell towers 14:40 - Discover the difference between 3G, 4G and 5G 22:24 - The cumulative effect of wireless technologies 25:06 - EMF exposure & children: Should you be worried? 34:36 - Nick shares how the book 'SALT TRIGGER FAT' changed his life for the better 36:24 - Why you should put your phone away? 41:37 - Smartwatch vs. Smartphone: Which one is better? 49:16 - Nick talks about his book 'The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs' 54:13 - Where you can go to connect with Nick Pineault and learn more about 'The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs' Resources: The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs TheEMFGuy.com Connect w/ Nick: Facebook Instagram YouTube Connect w/ CriticalBench: Youtube Facebook Instagram CriticalBench.com StrongByDesignPodcast.com
A Sheppey man has had to cancel an important hospital appointment about his cancer treatment after his vehicle was targeted in a suspected catapult attack.Residents on the island are concerns the problem is getting worse, with properties and animals also being targeted.Also in today's episode, hear from a Tunbridge Wells dad who is caught up in the devastating wildfires in Greece.British tourists have been forced to leave their hotels and are desperately trying to get a flight back home.There are concerns about the number of new houses being built near Sittingbourne, as residents struggle with poor phone signal.People living in Iwade say they hardly ever have 4G, and sat navs even stop working as you drive through the village.The architect behind controversial designs for two new tower blocks in Folkestone has defended how they look.They're part of plans for 600 homes on the harbour arm along with shops and leisure facilities.And, a Sevenoaks man has been telling us about his mission to cycle to all 92 English Football League stadiums.Danny Brazenell is raising money for Great Ormond Street Hospital after it cared for his niece who had cancer.
Those are no doubt familiar instructions if you've ever taken a plane. Today's topic is one that has been a part of our digital lives for quite some time: Flight Mode. Have you ever wondered why this feature exists on our devices, and what purpose it serves beyond just flying on airplanes? The main function of Flight Mode is to disable your device's cellular radio. This includes the mobile network as well as 4G or 5G connections. That of course means you can't receive voice calls or text messages. Why do we have to activate it when flying then ? Is Flight Mode beneficial for health? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions ! To listen to the last episodes, you can click here : How can I best preserve food in my freezer ?

How fricking good? I watched the Football Ferns on my phone last night as I drove from Auckland to Rotorua. Streaming it from the passenger seat as we zipped along the Waikato expressway. I can't think of a time when I've been more anxious for the 4G reception to hold out. And talk about adding new meaning to ‘Are We There Yet'? Those last nine minutes of additional time felt like ninety. We needed that result last night. In every respect. For the tournament. For the sport. And after the events of yesterday morning, for the country. From a football perspective, the thing I loved most was the hunger. From the word go, the Football Ferns were rabid on defence. Every time a Norwegian midfielder found the ball at her feet and lifted her head to assess the options forward, a Football Ferns' defender was rushing up, in her face, busying or badgering her for the ball and shutting down her options. It was the kind of relentless, exhaustive, extraordinary effort that makes the last twenty minutes of a game very difficult indeed. The style of New Zealand international football has historically been defined by a heavy line of brutish defenders heaving the ball up the field and hoping for the best, but on attack, the Ferns were creative, technical, skilful and fluid. It was such a joy to watch. For the second time in as many years, a women's team has stepped up in a World Cup under the pressure and hopes of the nation. The Black Ferns last year, the Football Ferns now. Isn't it amazing how sport can lift us? Two more pool games. And having recorded our first ever win at a Football World Cup, and in such glorious style, it's surely not too soon to suggest the Football Ferns of last night have the talent and desire to become the first New Zealand team to make the World Cup knockout rounds, too.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

THIS EPISODE IS A VIDEO SOLOCAST. TO APPRECIATE IT BEST, PLEASE VIEW IT ON MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL @MELONYBROWN.NOTE: This video solocast was recorded in Hawaii, which has a constant breeze blowing. My husband, Jeff, added noise reduction effects to lessen the wind noise, but it didn't remove all of it. Words are composed of letters in various combinations. A list of words will likely come to your mind when I tell you today's topic is a four letter word. Most people will think this four letter word is a curse word. Or a word that is profane or obscene. A swear word. Many avoid using four letter words in conversations, especially if little ears are present.Even though the four letter word I'm discussing in today's vide solocast is not a curse word, some dislike it so much that they still would deem it a curse word.What is this four letter word? WAIT. Yep, you see why some would throw it in with the other four letter curse words. In our fast lane, microwaveable, 4G, lightning speed society, we don't like to wait. In fact, Jen Wilkin, author of Abide: A Study in 1, 2, & 3 John, shares, "We have turned waiting into an enemy that is to be removed. We think waiting is something to be mitigated. It's not something to be sat in. We should be good at waiting." Essentially, we try everything we can to make waiting less harsh or severe.MIssionary and author Elisabeth Elliot said, "He [God] makes us wait. He keeps us on purpose in the dark. He makes us walk when we want to run, sit when we want to walk, for He has things to do in our souls that we are not interested in."As much as we might like to say curse words when we have to (are forced to) wait, many benefits are found in waiting.I share several of those benefits in this episode, as well as several Bible verses about waiting. Listen in to discover the benefits of waiting. Thank you for listening/watching this episode!

Promise of 5G is arriving as infrastructure investments amplify long promised gains “The hard work of putting the fiber on the ground, mounting the radios on the towers, and securing the spectrum, which is one of the largest capex investments that needs to go in for the telcos to secure the right spectrum… and we are getting to a point in the US for example… that the coverage of 5G is almost there,” says Ragu Masilamany, VP and Global Head of Solutions Engineering. “Now we are starting to talk about advanced services over the infrastructure.” According to some industry analysts, by 2030, 5G will reach $7 trillion in economic value. In this podcast we learn about how that value is being delivered in practical and timely ways. Communications service providers (CSPs) want faster monetization of 5G – and as recession fears loom and energy costs increase, some have a shortsighted view of the network's true long-term impact. However, industry leaders see a much different picture, with 5G investments already paying off for customers through increased video/gaming usage on 5G (vs. 4G), private 5G networks and customized network packages, demonstrating a taste of what's possible. “Mobility is here to stay. Flexible workforces are here to stay. And, the quality of the communication is ever more important,” adds Masilamany. “Almost every call is a video call and so that brings additional demand son the network.” To conduct business in the distributed hybrid work model, to achieve factory automation and to do many other things from smart city initiatives to logistics, 5G, or at least the things 5G delivers, has moved from potential gains to expected and needed services.

Mukesh Ambani's 2016 foray into telecom had upended dynamics of the sector. A brutal price war unleashed with the introduction of Reliance Jio had pushed carriers like Bharti Airtel, Idea Cellular and Vodafone India against the wall. Today, Jio is India's largest telco with a wireless subscriber base of about 430 million, while Airtel is a distant second with about 370 million. Vodafone Idea is struggling to stay afloat. And now, Jio has announced the launch of Jio Bharat, an entry-level, 4G-enabled phone priced at 999 rupees. Will this new phone disrupt the market again? India's political landscape cuts a somewhat similar picture. BJP has won two successive general elections and it still holds sway. Opposition parties, meanwhile, are trying hard to stitch an alliance to challenge Narendra Modi's juggernaut. But will they be able to do so? Just days after several opposition leaders gathered in Patna to show unity ahead of next year's general elections, there was a vertical split in a key camp. Ajit Pawar walked out of NCP and joined the Shiv Sena-BJP government. So has Ajit Pawar's switch dented the opposition unity? It is not just political activities. The weather in Mumbai too has become intense. The weatherman has issued an orange alert for rains in the city. Meanwhile, the 2023 summer has turned out disappointing for cooling product makers as unseasonal rains soiled expectations of bumper sales. This has also been reflected at the bourses, so what should investors do now? Benchmark indices continued to extend gains on Tuesday by scaling fresh all-time highs. After markets, let us now shift focus to the government's monetization plan. The National Land Monetisation Corporation gears up to auction its first property in September. Listen to this episode of the podcast to know more about this firm and why we needed it.
"About 15 years ago, we still didn't have 3G, 4G, 5G internet, that only started about 15 years ago. And then only 10 years ago we saw the real rise of social media with Facebook giving you a like button and becoming a dominant means of telecommunications. And we show in our work that the spread of 3g, 4G mobile, broadband internet, and social media have also contributed to the rise of populism. Why? Because a populist message travels faster and more broadly and more convincingly on social media simply because of the model of social media. Where the idea of creating the social media space is to make sure that your retention is kept, and of course, attention is more likely to be attracted by critical, negative, and outrageous messages. These are anti-elite messages. These are actually quite often also false messages, but they travel faster on social media. And so social media has also contributed to the rise of populism."What is a spin dictator? What does tyranny look like in the 21st century? Why is populism on the rise?

What can best be described as an “incestuous, co-dependent, and competitive” relationship, major US cellular and cable service providers have found themselves in an interesting competitive yet partnering dance. On one hand, cable companies offer mobile phone service plans to consumers through MVNO agreements with cellular service companies while making moves to keep their customers connected as much as possible without dependency on their cellular partners' networks. On the other hand, the cellular service companies are utilizing fiber backhaul from cable companies' extensive fiber networks to backhaul their massive 4G and 5G cell site traffic while simultaneously offering fixed wireless access from those same cell sites to directly compete with cable companies for residential internet service. In this episode, we dive into this fascinating relationship and what it means for these companies as well as their customers.
