Electric vehicle (EV) adoption will take more than tax credits.

Medizinische Erkenntnis durch Auswertung von Patientendaten aus verschiedenen Quellen – oder Schutz sensibler, persönlicher Informationen vor Weitergabe an Dritte: Das sind zwei berechtigte Anliegen, die meist nur schwer unter einen Hut zu bekommen sind. Der Weg, alle relevanten Daten in einen Topf zu werfen und auszuwerten, ist oft aus rechtlichen Gründen verbaut. Doch es gibt eine Alternative, die den Konflikt zwischen Kollaboration und Datenschutz auflösen kann. Das Federated Secure Computing genannte Verfahren setzt darauf, dass die Daten quasi ihren Heimathafen gar nicht verlassen. Wenn etwa mehrere Forschungseinrichtungen ihre jeweiligen Datenbestände analysieren, tun sie das für sich parallel auf dieselbe Methode und führen dann ihre Ergebnisse zusammen. Das ist kryptografisch abgesichert, so dass sich keine Rückschlüsse auf einzelne Originaldaten ziehen lassen. Und die Resultate sind im Endeffekt genauso gut wie bei einer gemeinsamen Datenbasis. Hendrik Ballhausen von der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München ist einer der Köpfe dieses innovativen Projekts, das vom Stifterverband im Rahmen der Initiative „Wirkung hoch 100“ gefördert wird. Die zugrunde liegenden mathematischen Verfahren gibt es schon seit den 1970er-Jahren. Neu ist der Open-Source-Ansatz, dieses verteilte Rechnen in schlanke, effiziente Anwendungen zu verpacken, um zum Beispiel Korrelationen in Daten zu erkennen. Dies nutzt nicht nur der medizinischen Forschung, sondern könnte etwa auch in der Wirtschaft zur Erstellung von Branchen-Benchmarks dienen – wenn Unternehmen, die miteinander im Wettbewerb stehen, ihre Daten einfließen lassen, ohne sie aus der Hand zu geben.
In medicine death is seen as a failure, and we do everything we can to avoid failure. This supports the societal stigma associated with talking about death and dying, as we no longer see death as a part of life. But one of the unexpected outcomes of the pandemic is that it's made the conversation […]

Last week an engineer at Google claimed that an AI chatbot he worked with, known as LaMDA, had become ‘sentient'. Blake Lemoine published a transcript of his conversations with LaMDA that included responses about having feelings and fearing death. But could it really be conscious? AI researcher and author Kate Crawford speaks to Ian Sample about how LaMDA actually works, and why we shouldn't worry about the inner life of software – for now..

This episode of Over the Edge features an interview between Matt Trifiro and David Knight, President & CEO of Terbine, a data exchange for the physical world that has built a highly scalable system enabling wider use of data to inform and radically reshape many industries and everyday life. David is a serial entrepreneur, angel investor, filmmaker, and experienced startup executive with a history of innovation and market development. He has a background in core technologies, including multi-spectral sensing and communications, messaging, enterprise software and distributed systems. David has founded, co-founded and held leadership roles in tech companies with exits including two IPOs, two M&A buyouts, and two recession-triggered meltdowns. He now leads Terbine, a big data & AI startup.In this episode, David talks about his journey from working on ham radios to being a pioneer in the early days of digital entertainment. He also discusses his involvement in the beginning of online storage, helping to launch the private space race, and dedicating himself to dealing with, analyzing, and processing the overwhelming amount of data that comes out of everyday life. David explains how all of this led to founding Terbine, and how the company has partnered with the City of Las Vegas to help propel the world to prosper through insight, communication, and emerging technologies. ---------Key Quotes:“They really want to make Vegas a place where they work on smart city technology and next generation communications. And, they're really investing in it, but more importantly, they're inviting startups and large companies to work together. And, so if you're thinking of a city as a platform, which is not a normal way to look at a city, we are really trying to help the city itself become smart and also sustainable. You don't necessarily think of Las Vegas as a sustainable city, but if you think about it with things like the water shortage is coming up, it's a place that really needs to be sustainable.”“The most interesting applications, which absolutely are going to be dependent on very rapid edge processing with low latency communications, are going to be in things that move. And, it could be a human moving. It could be commercial things. The first applications that we're actually looking at, and we will be doing very soon are in the commercial world.”“What we're trying to do is say, look, we've already said, we're going to take the pulse of the earth, so now we're going to wire the physical environment into the digital twin and then collectively you can now navigate around it.”“The more we can help the cities learn about the past, the present, and then extrapolate into the future, the better. So, it's not just the hedge funds that are going to make future bets. It'll be the cities themselves.”---------Show Timestamps:(02:45) Getting into technology(03:30) Arc to current role(05:55) Working with new computing technology (02:43) Early days of email / Start of Click to Send(08:30) XPrize Competition development and execution(19:17) What is Terbine?(21:10) Breaking apart the problem space(22:10) Looking at issues in 3D(25:15) Breaking down data silos(26:10) Dealing with fear and greed(27:06) Motto - ‘Take the pulse of the earth'(29:30) There are sensors everywhere(32:30) Mobile Edge Computing(36:28) Processing data and storage(41:48) Compression algorithms(43:15) Sharing data(44:40) Solving business and technology problems(45:30) Tech Startups in Las Vegas(49:30) Las Vegas Smart City Showcase(52:00) Terbine and Las Vegas partnership(53:30) Las Vegas as a privately funded smart city(54:30) How Las Vegas conducts business(56:30) Vegas loop(57:30) Brightline rail from Las Vegas to California(58:52) Uses for Terbine platform(01:03:30) Using Drones(01:05:30) Digital Twin implementation and uses--------Sponsor:Over the Edge is brought to you by Dell Technologies to unlock the potential of your infrastructure with edge solutions.

“Technological progress has merely provided us with more efficient means for going backward” – Aldous Huxley I've often wondered about the rate of change with regards to learning technology and solutions. Somewhat analogous to Moore's Law of Computing, ideally humans should have some formula that demonstrates how technology increases our ability to learn better and faster. With the advent of AI and data processing, the ability to consistently track learning programs should provide us with this information, and it is our duty as learning leaders to leverage that information for continual progress. In this Learning Tech Talks, I'm catching up with my friend Judy Albers from Area9 Lyceum to talk about an academic approach to learning that is grounded in years of research enabling organizations to create a high-impact transformative learning experience that allows learners to achieve their full potential through a truly personalized experience. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/learningtechtalks/support

#Bitcoin #BTC #Etherum #smartcontract #NFT You can't peruse social media without encountering banter from Bitcoiners bashing cryptocurrencies. Rightfully so, the majority of these altcoins are utter garbage. While Ethereum (ETH)is known for its multi-million-dollar monkey pictures #boredapes, it also has practical utility with smart contracts and blockchain data storage. Bitcoin can't store any information outside the scope of a transaction. Although users have the ability to add text, Bitcoin miners are not obligated to retain this data when generating new Bitcoin blocks. While Bitcoin is the most powerful decentralized supercomputer in the world, it's only being used to send/receive and log transactions. To put it into perspective, the most powerful supercomputer(excluding Bitcoin) reaches a mere 143 petaflops. Collectively, the Bitcoin network processes over 80,704,290 Petaflops on millions of nodes around the world. This glorious power is grossly under-leveraged. Say what you wish about Ethereum and Cardano, they can store the entire US Library of Congress, in which I own the copyrighted hit record, “Belief in Bitcoin”, on the blockchain perpetuity. Bitcoin needs the ability to store data. One, it's embarrassing to mint Bitcoin NFTs on an Ethereum blockchain. Moreover, in the long haul to 2140, the ability to store data on a blockchain will become not only best practice but mission-critical for nations, corporations, and any organization storing valuable data. Bitcoin needs to accept this charge and shoulder the world's most pertinent information. Centralized points of failure are the biggest threat to organizations dependent upon essential data. As the world flirts with yet a third global conflict, having disaster sites recovery on several hemispheres isn't sufficient. We must leverage this powerful decentralized network and implement a means of data storage. Proposal: Allow long text to be stored with BTC transactions in the form of a hash. Hash Char count TBD. The hash can be used to reference text or code stored elsewhere IE: on a sister blockchain. BTC Miners need to agree to store a number of characters in hexadecimal. Once consensus is reached, users can store text on the Bitcoin blockchain in the form of hexadecimal. As all data is code and all code is text, this will allow for smart contracts and NFTs. We may need a parallel blockchain to store the actual long text that was converted into hexadecimal. Miners should be provided an incentive to store the raw data. This will add value and utility to the Bitcoin blockchain and allow for smart contracts, NFTs, and supercomputing. The drawbacks are that it may slow down transaction speeds and significantly increase the size of the blockchain. Still, it seems the strengths outweigh the weaknesses, and enhancing the Bitcoin blockchain is inevitable. Technology knows no bounds and will continue to evolve. How will Bitcoin behave in 2140? Let's use this tech to UPGRADE AMERICA!

She also talks about the future of the Internet of Things, the importance and applications of automation, and provides advice for women working in technology. ---------Key Quotes:“The one thing that I like to just hammer to my customers is I think that we over-hype technology each and every day and we need to be simplifying it. So the biggest takeaway is that we need to simplify not only how we're communicating with the customers, but we need to do our homework to better understand their ecosystem and the vendors that they're working with. That's not just technology vendors, but their entire ecosystem. Because, if we don't understand their industry and what's going on with their day to day work, then that technology is something that over-complicates some of the things that they're working on. They don't want to hear about some gizmo or IoT. They want you to help solve problems.”“We as an industry have to get away from the technology jargon and really start getting closer to our customers, applying it to their use cases, and speaking in their language. We continue to have a massive gap there. That's a big area that we help our customers with today.”“We are looking at patterns. We're applying machine learning and artificial intelligence. And, we're working to bring together the human and the digital world, as we continue to automate businesses and operations. This is the evolution that we're in right now.”---------Show Timestamps:(02:10) Stephanie's Background(04:03) Branching out into other Technologies(07:13) Benefits of IoT and Machine to Machine Communication(13:10) Compass' Client Base and Needs(14:10) Biggest Trends Not Obvious to Others (16:36) The Metaverse isn't a Brand New Took(17:25) Getting Closer to Understanding, Supporting, and Communicating with the Customer(18:55) The Business Edge Report Results and Findings(23:49) Getting Smart with Value Added Reseller Relationships(26:30) Efforts in Edge Computing(28:52) Examples of Real-time Data Intelligence (31:26) The Importance of Security on the Edge(35:50) Hybrid Approach to Edge and Cloud Computing(37:55) Simplicity of Implementing Plug and Play Solutions(38:60) Seamless Exchange of IoT Data On a Global Scale(43:40) Having a Strategic Perspective and Plan (45:36) Advice for Women in Technology --------Sponsor:Over the Edge is brought to you by Dell Technologies to unlock the potential of your infrastructure with edge solutions.
