Our podcast's descent of quality continues, eerily mirroring TNG's own descent of quality in its seventh and final season. Are Star Trek podcasts only as good as the Star Trek episodes they're covering? Are we Star Trek fans merely the sum total of our Star Trek discussions? Is Data's evil twin brother Lore still kind of mid? Learn the answer to these Trek-istential questions and more as we watch this Season Seven premiering episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Episode discussion starts at 18:40. This is episode 10/19 in our look at Deep Space Nine & The End of TNG. Hosted by Jaron Hatch, Aaron Cole, with Jennie Beal, and Marc Nielson .

This week we find the Enterprise crew on the verge of losing one of their own. An episode that brings to the forefront the rights of one specific Lt Commander, challenges the law and tests friendships. Is Data the property of Starfleet? Will he be forced to leave the Enterprise? Should Picard have been a lawyer? Will Riker destroy his friendship with Data? Will Geordi loss his best friend? These questions are more will be answered on this episode of Hailing Frequencies Open.

Is Data the new Oil? Professors Deepa Mani and Bhagwan Chowdhry say it is much better than that. The new data sources give you reliable information in real-time, and new creative methods allow you to tease out causality from correlation. They argue that Data is also a competitive advantage that needs to be democratised.#AtriumTalks #ISBFaculty #ISBStudios Music Authors: Song Pastime Paradise, Artist Ray Barretto, Writers Stevie Wonder.

"Now hear this. Now hear this. On this week's episode of Kirking Off Dean and Nathan bring in life-long Trek fan, Brian who is also a friend of the show and friend in real life. The three lads dive into something new from the Star Trek universe - can you believe it? Lots of existential discussion this week based around one of the central premises of the episode: Captain Pike knows he will sustain a life-changing injury that will confine him to a chair, and drastically change his quality of life. Does having that knowledge impact him for better or worse? How would it affect you? As for the main plot: Does it really only take 3 crewmembers to run the USS Archer? Does the transporter shenanigan's present future or past problems for the Trek universe? What exactly is a Gorn breeding sack? Is Data's use of the word 'shit' in Star Trek: Generations the beginning of the end of Star Trek? Lots of tangential discussions around Trek, armchair philosophy, and some of the actual episode.

I'm watching Season 7's "Inheritance" alongside you, the viewer. No co-host this week, just me talking about moms. Specifically, Data's mom, who appears out of nowhere after decades and wants to start a relationship with Data. In retrospect, it gets weird. I'm going to blame it on Star Trek: Picard, but it gets weird. Am I wrong though? Is Dr. Tainer's desire to reach out to Data after years when she chose to pointlessly abandon him on Omicron Theta okay? Is Data's response to all of this a fair equivalent to a sympathetic, human reaction? I am deep in the weeds on this one.

Are you more left-brained or right-brained? This intense debate about Data-driven vs Content Marketing will have your undivided attention (see what I did there?). James and Joseph find out which marketing strategy is more important for your business and why.    It’s often considered a personal preference to each marketer and business, but there are some guidelines for knowing which way you need to go. Data answers the questions of ‘when’, ‘why’ and ‘what’, whereas creativity comes in to play with the ‘how’. But this isn’t always the case.  So do you think you’re more of a data director or a creative connoisseur? We’ve done the research, you decide who won you over.  Listen in to what we uncover in our intense debate: Data-driven Vs. Creative marketing and what is more beneficial for you. We’d love to hear your thoughts, so let us know who do you agree with in the comments below. Data-driven Marketing Data-driven marketing optimises your brand based on vital information about the customer. This data predicts their needs, desires and behaviours to create insights that aid your ROI. Data-driven marketing emerged with the rise of digitalisation. Before marketers could analyse the online behaviour of their customers, they went primarily on instinct. How times have changed, turning marketing into a quantifiable process. Targeting your audience Insights produced by data turn prospects into buyers. This helps you develop a deeper understanding of who your audience is. Data-driven marketing can then target these demographics that resonate with your brand based on how they interact with you. This is extremely important once you have a following and before you release a big campaign. By understanding how they behave will help not only you but them too. You’re giving them what they want, building rapport and translating that into engagement.  Boost & Measure results As well as boosting your return of investment, data also tells you how you’re performing. Informed insights drive your decisions as a marketer, helping you measure and track future results. Data can give you an understanding of your customers’ response to your campaigns to tweak.  Marketing is constantly evolving, making it hard to keep up, but a lot easier with data to help. If one strategy isn’t performing well, it is easy to analyse and find an alternative. Consistency It’s hard to say data-driven is more important than creativity, but there is evidence that data-driven marketing should come first, followed by creative execution. Consistently hitting a goal comes from data, as we will say again, numbers don’t lie. Long-term strategies tend to collect and measure then refine data in order to execute marketing at a faster rate. Creativity is beautiful, but if done wrong, it can sometimes be hit and miss. In saying that however, using too much data can lead to limited innovation.  Creative Marketing Creative marketing isn’t only thinking outside the box. It involves tactics to leave a memorable and positive experience for prospects. Creative marketing is a big accelerator for brand recognition and long term sales. Creativity is beautiful, but also extremely strategic. Creativity is beautiful, but also extremely strategic - James Banks. Emotions are essential We all make decisions based on our emotions. This is why emotion is extremely powerful when done right. You can have an abundance of data about the time and place to market. But if you don’t have the right, impactful message, you don’t have your sale. Emotion will encourage decision making and push your audience to take action. It is what lets businesses reach milestones in their marketing efforts. When it comes to online engagement, content thrives off shares, clicks and likes. In a fast-paced world, this is exactly what emotion will persuade your audience to do. Your business needs to appeal to your audience’s needs, wants and behavioural instincts.  All numbers, no innovation Common reasons for most brands going viral is because they do something no one else has done before. This concept is particularly important when it comes to standing out from your competitors. To capture attention, your business needs unique, memorable content. The market is saturated with the noise of the competitor’s campaigns and advertisements. It’s time to stand out.  Building brand recognition is essential. This comes from the originality of creative marketing. The tactics of creative marketing will not only make a bang but stick with the public for the long term.  Here to stay When launching big campaigns, you need creativity. Creative marketing will grab your audience’s attention and keep it. Established brands such as Apple and McDonalds have built their brand through creative marketing. Because of these strategies, they’re globally recognised by the even simplest of indicators. If that doesn’t scream long term, I don’t know what will. Another side to ‘long-term’ comes stability. As we progress to a more digitised world, the process of data-driven marketing has the potential to become automated. This progression will allow marketers to save time, effort and energy for big, creative ideas. The role of creatives will never become redundant and is a huge stand out for your brand.  Is ‘Data-driven creativity’ a thing? Short answer, yes. Combining both, data and creativity, is key to ensuring your campaign ticks all the boxes. Creative strategies more often than not, come from the information data insights offer. It is easier creating an astonishing campaign, with the data of who to target, when to launch and why.  Data lays out the path for the creativity to drive it to success.  Here at Web3, we are very much on the data-driven side of things in what we actually provide as a service. Although, we believe we have the perfect mix of creative hearts and analytical minds within our team. Transcript James Banks: Hello, and welcome to another episode of the Web3 Marketing Debate Show. I'm your host, James Banks. Joseph Chesterton: And I'm your host Joseph Chesterton. James Banks: And today, we have another spicy, hot out the oven debate on data-driven versus creative marketing. Which one is better for business? So for this debate, I will be taking the creative marketing side of the ring. Joseph Chesterton: And I will be taking the data-driven side. James Bank: Alrighty, well, without further ado, let's start the show. So Joseph, why is data-driven marketing better than creative marketing? Before we get started, it would probably be handy to define what data-driven and creative marketing is. Joseph Chesterton: So data-driven marketing is a process by which marketers gain insights in trends. These insights are based on in-depth analysis, informed by numbers. Whereas creative marketing is, throw some links and see if it sticks. James Banks: Oh, please. Joseph Chesterton: I'll let you back that one up when it comes to it. But anyway, so which one is better? I'm on the data-driven side.  So numbers don't lie.  You cannot (well, you can) fake numbers but when you're tracking something that is giving you data. When done correctly, data will give you insights into the decisions you make with marketing. When you do have the data to track, and you are tracking it and measuring it. Then it's important to test and measure.  From there, you'll be able to produce marketing that is bang on. As well as highly targeted to the specific audience because of the analytics and insights that you have from the data-driven approach. That's why I believe data-driven is super important when it comes to marketing. Obviously, there's the creative side. So I'll throw that over to you, James. James Banks: Yeah, definitely. Creative is a little bit more than just throwing something against the wall and seeing if it will stick. ‘Creative’ in an agency sense means things such as artwork and imagery. Things such as graphics down to the actual tactical level. But also, creative exists on a strategic level.  I'll give an example of one of the most memorable advertising campaigns in history. Apple's 1984 Think Different campaign, an excellent example of creative based advertising. Do you think Steve Jobs and the Apple marketing advertising team pulled up a data-driven report and said:  "You know what? We need to do a reenactment of the 1984 pitcher and have someone throw a sledgehammer into a giant television." None.  No data or reporting would have generated the seed for that campaign to then come into existence. And then become one of the most memorable and successful advertising campaigns of all times. That's the difference between data-driven and creative marketing.  Creative requires genuine human creativity to come up with something that ideally hasn't been done before.  Something that has not been seen or heard from a big picture advertising point of view.  Going down to the tactical execution of campaigns through creative and artwork. It's vitally important for marketing and advertising campaigns to have the creativity to be successful.  Creativity is a lot harder to do than data-driven marketing and is more valuable and important. Not to discredit data-driven per se. But I do believe it is the more valuable and more important form of marketing between the two. What do you have to say to that, Joseph? Joseph Chesterton: Well, it's exactly that. It is far more difficult to do than collecting numbers. So if you are - James Banks: Far more difficult to do well, that is. Joseph Chesterton: Yes. When you're trying to create an ad like what Apple has made, day in and day out, good luck with that. That's going to be very, very difficult to do.  Whereas if you are marketing based on what the data is telling you, then it will give you far greater insight. It allows you to create marketing that resonates with the specific people you're targeting. Not the entire world or whoever they were marketing to at the time.  The strategy of collecting and measuring data is long-term. Refining your marketing based on data will allow you to execute your marketing faster. Especially opposed to ones requiring creative thinking and creative excellence every single time.  That sh*t is expensive.  With that said, why do you say that creative marketing is the better long-term strategy, James? James Banks: Because for the time being, and I hope it stays like this indefinitely. You can't programme an AI or machine learning bot to produce creative marketing. Meaning creative in the sense of breakthrough campaigns.  There are things out there that can produce banners, for example. You can preset some conditions and it starts churning out banner ads and things like that for you. But the big picture creative is going to be something that will and should always hold within the domain of great human advertisers. Data-driven marketing, on the other hand, is exactly that. It is a bunch of numbers inputted, interpreted, then generated. Those insights then lead to action and optimization efforts.  We've already seen for the last five-plus years, the big guys in the field, such as Google and Facebook. They are progressively increasing the sophistication of their algorithms. Specifically, their AIs and their machine learnings around their advertising platform. And the AIs are doing exactly what a good data-driven marketer would be. Interpret the data, generate insights, formulate a hypothesis, then edit, action, and optimise the campaign accordingly.  Which poses the question:  What is the role of a modern marketer and advertiser with the increasing sophistication of these algorithms? Algorithms that are taking time away that could be spent driving and optimising a data-driven campaign?  That's why I believe creative, that is big, shock, creative marketing, will ultimately have a greater life span between the two. What do you have to say to that, Joseph? Joseph Chesterton: I tend to agree that creative will always be a key aspect of marketing. But I believe that there's going to be a hybrid approach where we do utilise things like Facebook and Google that are always collecting our data.  When we utilise the data they're collecting, that's readily available and we're freely giving to them, then we'll be able to make decisions far quicker than having to think of some stroke of genius each time. In which case, creativity can be built on top of data, and ideas can be generated easier.  They go hand in hand. You can't do one without the other.  Although, you can probably do creative once. But to be able to replicate that, you then need to be tracking the data. And to measure the results so that they can be as best as they possibly can be. Do you think that creative marketing is better than data-driven, or do you agree that they go hand in hand? James Banks: I think the big picture ultimately means that data-driven... let's just break this down into specifics. So, data-driven optimization on a marketing and advertising campaign, in the long-term will be taken over.  Machine learning and algorithms will be able to do it faster and better than humans.  It's not the case now. Don't get me wrong. But it will be. I think it will be here in a much shorter timeframe than a lot of marketers and advertisers believe it will come.  But I don't see that as a bad thing. I'm not scared of it. I think that's a great thing.  Marketers and advertisers can spend the time, effort, energy on the big creative ideas. The things that have been sidelined over the last 10 to 20 years with the advent of digital marketing. The focus of digital marketing and advertising since its inception has been able to collect real, meaningful data in the first place. But also, how to understand, interpret and turn it into insights and actions that lead to results. Now that the industry is growing more sophisticated tactics and strategies, they’re starting to test, swipe and deploy. This leaves a massive gap for big picture creativity. I really hope that the industry moves back to big ideas, big creatives.  For us at Web3, we are very much on the data-driven side of things in what we actually do as a service. And I have massive respect for creative marketers and advertisers that do these big picture campaigns. But the future is a combination of both.  Optimization and day to day are going to be taken care of by things such as machine learning. This will allow marketers and advertisers to focus on the big picture, big idea and creative campaigns. This will move the needle and provide what I hope is more value to the audiences that they're looking to serve. Joseph Chesterton: Well said. Okay. That's a wrap. James Banks: I think that's a wrap too, Joseph. So with that said, ladies and gentlemen, thanks again for tuning in to another episode of the Web3 Marketing Debate Show.  Thank you for listening, and have a nice day.

Derek is actually pretty right about the trend in TNG two-parters, which is kind of embarrassing and kind of makin' me proud. Granted, I only have so many, "pride in my son" moments left as Derek's 'Trek cred comes to rival my own. Would Jaglom Shrek is the only Yridian we've met and he'd still be the worst if we met a Yridian corpse in a decaying orbit around a gas giant comprised primarily of farts. What I'm saying is that the Shrek children's book was written in 1990, so he wasn't even the best Shrek in popular media. Is Data's story good or not? I say 'no' because it undermines Data's growth. It is well-structured and works with the themes of this episode though. The Beige and The Bold is hosted on Anchor and is available on most podcasting platforms.

On this episode of The Artists of Data Science, we get a chance to hear from Scott Page, a professor who studies complex systems and collective intelligence teams and political and economic institutions. He's known for his research on and modeling of diversity and complexity in the social sciences with a particular interest in the roles that diversity plays in complex systems. His book, “The Model Thinker”, stresses the application of ensembles of models to make sense of complex phenomena. Scott shares with us his predictions into the future of machine learning, the importance of using a simple model, and how diversity impacts productivity. This episode is packed with amazing content that all data scientists and machine learning practitioners can apply in their lives. It was an absolute pleasure chatting with Scott!

Evolution and technology have allowed our human species to manipulate the physical environment around us -- reshaping fields into cities, redirecting rivers to irrigate farms, domesticating wild animals into captive food sources, conquering disease. But now, we're turning that "innovative gaze" inwards: which means the main products of the 21st century will be bodies, brains, and minds. Or so argues Yuval Harari, author of the bestselling book Sapiens: A Brief History of Mankind and of the new book Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow, in this episode of the a16z Podcast. What happens when our body parts no longer have to be physically co-located? When Big Brother -- whether government or corporation -- not only knows everything about us, but can make better decisions for us than we could for ourselves? That's ridiculous, you say. Sure... until you stop to think about how such decisions already, actually happen. Or realize that an AI-based doctor and teacher will have way more information than their human counterparts because of what can be captured, through biometric sensors, from inside (not just observed outside) us. So what happens then when illusions collide with reality? As it is, religion itself is "a virtual reality game that provides people with meaning by imposing imaginary rules on an objective reality". Is Data-ism the new religion? From education, automation, war, energy, and jobs to universal basic income, inequality, human longevity, and climate change, Harari (with a16z's Sonal Chokshi and Kyle Russell) reflect on what's possible, probable, pressing -- and is mere decades, not centuries, away -- when man becomes god... or merges with machines.

Federation Exceptionalism.   In this episode of Meta Treks, hosts Mike Morrison and Zachary Fruhling are joined by Duncan Barrett, co-author of Star Trek: The Human Frontier, to discuss the concept of exceptionalism in Star Trek. Mike, Zachary, and Duncan consider various forms of exceptionalism, both here in the real world and in the Star Trek universe. Are humans exceptional lifeforms with unique properties and abilities compared to other life forms here on Earth? In the Star Trek universe, do humans have unique or exceptional abilities compared to members of various alien species? Is the Federation an exceptional political entity compared with neighboring political organizations such as the Romulan Empire or the Ferengi Alliance? How does Federation Exceptionalism compare and contrast with so-called American Exceptionalism? And is there a positive sense of exceptionalism that can avoid the pitfalls of superiority, cultural assimilation, colonialism, and hegemony while allowing for genuine progress toward Federation ideals of liberty, diplomacy, and self-determination?   Chapters  Welcome to Episode 46 (00:01:07)  Introducing Duncan Barrett and Initial Thoughts on Exceptionalism (00:02:04)  Are Humans Exceptional? In the Real World? In Universe? (00:06:56)  Are Some Ideals More Exceptional Than Others? (00:12:10)  What Do Alien Races Reveal About the Uniqueness of Humans?

When a race of Hefty bags wants to tarp over a planet with 15,000 humans living on it, the Enterprise has to consider taking them on a Kid Rock cruise. The only crewmember immune to the local radiation is Data, so he beams down only to find an obtuse demagogue with a weird voice is running the place, and the guy doesn't believe that the Hefty corporation even exists. Is Data a secret practitioner of rave hand jive, or does he just have invisible balls to play with? Why is Gosheven sounding so thirsty? Are Lenny and Carl on loan from The Simpsons? It's the episode in which we award some T-shirts.

When unfrozen caveman Klingons are about to thaw out in a nice suburban neighborhood, Starfleet sends their sexiest emissary to try to talk Picard into a murder-based solution to the problem.

Is K'Ehleyr going to get picked in The Bachelor? Is Worf a cigar store Indian? It's the episode in which we try to get CBS to jerk our udders.

When Captain Picard's fencing match gets cut short by a bad case of deja vu, the Enterprise crew is forced to grapple with his romantic regrets, not to mention a temporal catastrophe that threatens the entire quadrant. Their investigation leads to a fringey German scientist, who married Picard's ex-girlfriend. Will Beverly's deep jealousy impact her obligation to keep the scientist alive? Is Data already old enough to need a reacher-grabber? Will the captain finally have a sexual encounter with a consenting adult? It's the episode where we discover that we'd be great future accordion players!
