No te quepa la menor duda: La llegada del coche autónomo será el principio del fin del automóvil tal y como lo conocemos. ¿Eso es bueno o malo? Es lo que vamos a ver en este video. ¿Tardará mucho o poco? También lo veremos porque hay mucho que contar… Pero te digo una cosa el día que llegue la popularización del coche autónomo… nada será igual… Antes de comenzar permitid que os haga una reflexión: Este video pretende ser una base para reflexionar, discrepar y abrir un debate sobre el tema… porque en este caso, os diría que más que nunca, me interesa vuestra opinión. En el tema citado de los vehículos autónomos, los niveles de autonomía propuestos en 2016 por la SAE siguen siendo vigentes y se publicaron en un informe de sencillo nombre… eufemismo… denominado “Taxonomy and Definitions for Terms Related to On-Road Motor Vehicle Automated Driving Systems”. Son 6 niveles van de 0 a 6 y vamos a detallarlos: Nivel 0. El coche emite avisos, pero no controla el vehículo. Nivel 1. El conductor comparte el control con el propio vehículo, pero de forma parcial. Un ejemplo podría ser el control de crucero adaptativo. Nivel 2. El sistema automatizado toma el control total del vehículo pero el conductor debe supervisar la conducción y estar preparado para intervenir inmediatamente. Nivel 3. El conductor puede desviar su atención de las tareas de conducción de forma segura, por ejemplo, el conductor puede enviar mensajes de texto o ver una película… pero debe seguir estando preparado para intervenir. Nivel 4. Como en el 3, salvo que no se requiere la atención del conductor que, por ejemplo, se podría echar a dormir. Nivel 5. Nivel máximo, no se requiere intervención humana alguna más allá de decir a dónde queremos ir… se trata de un vehículo robotizado. Un coche autónomo puede saber conducir, pero ¿cómo puede reaccionar ante lo imprevisto? Y es que es muy difícil enfrentarse al mayor agente de caos y confusión que existe sobre la tierra: El Ser Humano. No es fácil tomar decisiones ante un conductor que realiza maniobras anárquicas por la razón que sea. Pero es que tampoco lo es reaccionar a una persona que decide bloquear el paso a nuestro coche porque no está en sus cabales… Y de esto saben mucho las empresas que ya están usando coches autónomos como taxis sin conductor. Son los llamados robotaxis. El sueño de muchas empresas tecnológicas y de transporte de pasajeros. Imagínate un montón de taxis trabajando todo el día, sin pagar conductores… Lo cierto es que empresas como Waymo o Cruise ya están operando en algunas ciudades de EEUU y, aunque con incidentes aislados, están mostrando cifras de siniestralidad prometedoras… Pero claro, circulan en zonas de servicio concretas. Queda por ver qué pasaría si los implantáramos al mismo nivel que los taxis o VTC en zonas de servicio muy variadas. Y ojo, porque se ha empezado con los robotaxis… Pero estoy casi seguro que la mensajería y el transporte será el siguiente sector a “robotizar”. En este punto, si eres conductor de taxis, VTC o transportista, me encantaría que nos dejaras en comentarios situaciones que has vivido y que, seguramente, no resolvería un vehículo autónomo. Igual las compartimos en un próximo vídeo… Hay expertos que están en contra. Nada menos que Luis Montoro, nada menos que presidente de FESVIAL (Fundación Española para la Seguridad Vial), muestra sus dudas con el coche autónomo… En una intervención reciente dijo: “Queda mucho por hacer para llegar al del coche autónomo de nivel 5. Las tecnologías necesarias son muy complejas, caras, vulnerables y con alto nivel de mantenimiento, por lo que habrá que plantearse si son viables y rentables”. Su intervención daría para otro vídeo. Lo cierto es que la popularización del coche autónomo supondría un cambio de paradigma absoluto en lo que al automóvil se refiere… eso de “¿Te gusta conducir?” carecería de sentido y para mí, de alguna forma, sería el fin de las marcas Premium. ¿Por qué? Porque los coches serían simples salones con ruedas. Asuntos como la motorización, tipo de frenos, suspensiones, instrumentación, cambio… todo eso carecerá de importancia… la clave será una buena gestión del sistema autónomo y un interior acogedor, con buenas butucas y una pantalla de plasma gigante para ver la “tele” mientras viajamos… Por eso me parece una estupidez que las marcas, sobre todo las Premium, se muestren tan entusiastas con los coches autónomos…. Que juegan en su contra. Es tirar piedras contra su tejado. En este vídeo contamos con la colaboración de Airbnb. Te voy a contar algunas experiencias que he tenido disfrutando de sus servicios, que seguro te van a dar buenas ideas a la hora de viajar.

A new organization is working to ensure rural Wisconsin thrives. The Rural Policy Institute (RPI) was formed in July 2024 as a nonprofit, non-partisan coalition of agricultural and rural organizations. Its goal is to research and develop policies that promote generational prosperity in rural communities. "Rural Wisconsin has unique challenges, and we're here to help policymakers understand those," said Bob Welch, RPI's executive director. "We're not an advocacy group, but we provide valuable research so informed decisions can be made." RPI's recent study revealed new insights about rural areas. Traditionally, the U.S. Census Bureau classified rural communities by population size. However, RPI uses population density to better define rural, suburban, and urban areas. "This method shows that many small towns once seen as rural are actually suburban," Welch explained. "Meanwhile, larger communities surrounded by farmland remain rural in culture and lifestyle."

There are now 8,500 women in combat roles in the US army, and 600 women in similar positions in the US marines. The gender confusion of today ultimately stems from gender role confusion and the feminist movement of the 1960s. God has set boundaries for each gender, and removing those only leads to disaster. So where do we go from here? The key is to get back to Biblical definitions of God's roles for both men and women. This program includes:1.

Deep Chandh Raja, MBBS, MD, PhD, Australian National University, Kauvery Hospital, is joined by Dhiraj Gupta, MBBS, MD, Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital, and Dominik K Linz, MD, PhD, Maastricht University Medical Center, to discuss a international position paper, developed by the Working Group of the Signal Summit, highlights the challenges in understanding and treating atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common arrhythmia in adults. Despite technological advancements in pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), progress in understanding AF mechanisms, structural changes, and phenotypic differences has been limited due to inconsistent terminology, suboptimal mapping techniques, and the complex nature of AF itself. The paper aims to establish clearer definitions, promote standardized approaches, and propose research pathways to improve AF therapies and patient outcomes. https://www.hrsonline.org/education/TheLead https://www.heartrhythmjournal.com/article/S1547-5271(24)03564-1/fulltext Host Disclosure(s): D.

In the last episode I talked with Dr Adam Dorsay about the four types of connection we want and need as humans. I hope you listened and got benefit. I'll list them out in this short episode. But here I want to draw attention to the real type of connection we are talking about, and most of us…missing. If we don't understand, we'll miss the concept entirely. Imagine one person asking another if they cycle. And the other says, “Absolutely! Almost every day?” So the first person says, “Well great, want to meet back here in the morning and go cycle together?” “Sure,” says the other. The next morning they meet up. One is on a motorcycle. The other on a bicycle. I'm going to help define our connections so we understand what we really want. Dr Dorsay's book and my muse for this episode is, Super Psyched: Unleash the Power of the 4 Types of Connection and Live the Life You Love. Also find him on his podcast, Super Psyched.

156. It's Time to Empower Your Team Today's episode is focused on the four roles that you may see someone leverage in an organization. These are not career roles, but instead the roles that you choose from in various career situations with your team or other people in your organization. The four roles are mentoring, coaching, teaching and leading. Each of these roles plays a crucial part in your team's development. As a leader, you may find yourself switching between these roles depending on the situation and the needs of your team. The key is to adapt to what your team members need so you can motivate them to grow and develop. In this episode: Definitions of the four roles that leaders can leverage. Depending on the level of experience and maturity of the employee, leaders will need to adapt to them and choose which role to use. Leaders need to switch to different roles by situation and your team. A client experience with his team and goal he has to shift more towards coaching. What are the nuances between the four different roles?

Case Interview Preparation & Management Consulting | Strategy | Critical Thinking
For this episode, let's revisit a Case Interview & Management Consulting classic where we talk about brainstorming with definitions. Brainstorming is very difficult and a crucial skill to have when solving cases, especially with McKinsey where the interviewer will constantly ask you to probe and brainstorm different areas of the case. This podcast examines the initial parts of the brainstorming structure. Since brainstorming happens in such a rapid-fire format and appears unstructured, the speed at which it is done creates the illusion it lacks structures. Yet, it does have structure, but is merely done very quickly in the candidate's mind. This podcast will teach candidates how to generate a structure/definition that can be used to guide the development of options or paths in the brainstorm.

In this impromptu episode of INNER WORK, I answer a student question about whether the information we can access through the Akashic Records is limited to planet Earth, or if we can tap into higher and vaster realms of information and consciousness. Everything in this episode is based on my 21-year experience with the Records - both personal and professional - plus recent research into how they operate. Join me for this discussion of: understanding the Akashic Records as an all-encompassing, cosmic field of information and energy is there such a thing as the "Akashic Records of Earth"? how the ego or linear mind has attempted to define (and label) the Akashic Records quantum research into the Akashic Records from Ervin Laszlo the importance of having a clear purpose and intention (and being fully grounded in reality) when we explore questions about past lives, interplanetary lives, in-between lives, starseed origins, etc through the Records You're lovingly invited to join my email community and get access to my free Akashic Records Mini Course + weekly newsletter: https://josephinehardman.com/akashic-records-intro/ Explore the next round of my Akashic Records Certification Program: https://josephinehardman.com/work-with-me/akashic-records-certification-program/ Connect through my website: https://josephinehardman.com Thank you for being here, doing your inner work, and leading the way for others with your light.

What's the difference between AI agents and agentic AI? In this episode VP and Principal Analyst Craig Le Clair and Senior Analyst Christina McAllister discuss the nuances of the two and use cases for both.
What definitions do you have of your business? Who have you defined that it is for, where do you see it fitting in, do you think it's hard, fun, joyful, serious, are you the only one who can do it correctly? Whatever your definitions are, they limit who and what you can receive from. You could function from a universe of possibilities but you create this compression so you can try and fit into what everybody else is choosing. What if instead of definitions, you started to look at what is true for you as a being in business? This episode of Choice, Change and Action, is an excerpt from a Business Done Different class that Simone Milasas facilitated recently, where Simone looks at definitions that could be holding you, your business and your money flows back, and invites you to reach for bigger and greater. If you expand rather than compress for everything you are choosing, then the possibilities around you can show up! Let's go bigger and greater in business. Keys Takeaways Trusting Your Awareness In Business? Beyond Definitions And Decisions In Business What Energies Does Your Business Require To Expand? Are You Choosing Autonomy Or Receiving Contribution? Daily Questions: "If I was letting consciousness lead me, what would I choose?” “What do I know? What am I aware of?" "If I wasn't choosing to compress, what could I expand into?" "What energy does my business require?"
