Piero Formica"Intelligenza umana e intelligenza artificiale"Un'esposizione nella Galleria della MenteEdizioni Pendragonwww.pendragon.itQuesto libro è un compendio di storia, scienze sociali, filosofia e osservazione dello sviluppo e del comportamento umani, in grado di stimolare una profonda riflessione sulle nostre interazioni con la tecnologia e le macchine. L'intelligenza umana è un fenomeno naturale, è generale e creativa. L'intelligenza artificiale è una tecnologia progettata per svolgere compiti specifici: spetta a noi decidere come rapportarci a essa. All'intelligenza artificiale dobbiamo accoppiare una forma di intelligenza umana potenziata, creativa, in modo da non rischiare di incorrere nuovamente nella schiavitù delle macchine, come successe in parte già ai tempi della Rivoluzione industriale. In queste pagine Piero Formica riporta prepotentemente alla superficie la forza e l'autonomia del pensiero umano, capace di vedere al di là della siepe “che da tanta parte dell'ultimo orizzonte il guardo esclude”, descritta da Giacomo Leopardi nella sua poesia L'infinito. E tutti noi dobbiamo far sì che l'IA non sia la siepe, l'impedimento che estromette l'uomo dal pensare, dallo spaziare con la fantasia.Piero Formica, professore di Economia della Conoscenza, è Senior Research Fellow e Thought Leader dell'Innovation Value Institute della Maynooth University, Irlanda. Ha ricevuto l'Innovation Luminary Award 2017 dall'Open Innovation Science and Policy Group sotto l'egida dell'Unione Europea per il suo contributo alla moderna politica dell'innovazione e il premio Magister Peloritanus 2023 per l'Innovazione e l'Imprenditorialità dall'Accademia Peloritana dei Percolanti dell'Università di Messina.

Welcome to Game Changers with Jeff Newkirk, where we speak with people who have done something to make this world a better place. It's simple: inspire, educate, and let's go change this world! On today's episode, Jeff continues his conversation with guest Mr. Darrell Guthrie. Mr. Guthrie is a retired U.S. Army Major General and is now a Senior Peace Fellow with the Public International Law and Policy Group. He is also an attorney and co-founder of the Advanced Dynamic Defense Directorate, a national security think tank and business incubator. He is a proud father of four and grandfather of six. Today, Mr. Guthrie shares about leadership philosophy. To begin, he outlines the 5 key points of his leadership philosophy: be optimistic and proactive, address challenges at the lowest level possible, take administrative and logistic functions seriously, be willing to think and look at things differently, and be okay with imperfection. The greatest reward as a leader, he and Jeff agree, is to see those you are responsible for move on and up in their careers. The power of thanking people who have done a job well should never be underestimated. Having a well-rounded perspective often leads to making better decisions overall. Mr. Guthrie's favorite point is recognizing that he is not perfect, and neither are other people. Humility is key to being a strong and effective leader. He also explains the difference between chasing perfection vs. chasing excellence. These 5 points for leadership began to take shape in Mr. Guthrie's mind as he continued to gain more and more experience in leadership. As a lieutenant, which he claims he wasn't great at, he was able to step outside of himself and find his strengths and weaknesses. The Army is a great place for developing leadership skills because it introduces you to so many different roles and challenges. An important lesson Mr. Guthrie learned in the military is the importance of letting other people do their jobs on their own. If it's not up to standard, then you may have a conversation with them about how they may do better. As a commander, he actively maintained a calm and focused persona who was ready to help soldiers work through problems. But he wasn't always perfect, and shares about the time he let go of his ego and apologized for his previous words and actions. Today, it's rare to see leaders and politicians publicly apologize, because apologizing is often equated with weakness. However, there is a huge difference between being weak and being humble. Then, Mr. Guthrie shares his view that many corporations and the military are still following these 5 points, though their demands and expectations continue to evolve. He would like to see business leaders and CEOs embrace humility by making profits and benefits more equal for their employees. Treating people nicely and being positive and proactive about the future is the best way to bring up the organization and the people around you. Before cloning out, he discusses the differences between being proactive vs. reactive, especially in leadership roles. Interacting with other people from a place of humility and sincerity goes a very, very long way. Learn more about Jeff Newkirk. Do you have any game-changers in your life?

Welcome to Game Changers with Jeff Newkirk, where we speak with people who have done something to make this world a better place. It's simple: inspire, educate, and let's go change this world! On today's episode, Jeff welcomes guest Mr. Darrell Guthrie to discuss national security. Mr. Guthrie is a retired U.S. Army Major General and a Senior Peace Fellow with the Public International Law and Policy Group. He is also an attorney and co-founder of the Advanced Dynamic Defense Directorate, a national security think tank and business incubator. He is a proud father of four and grandfather of six. To begin, Mr. Guthrie shares that he received an ROTC scholarship during the Raegan buildup in the mid-80s. His first deployment was to the first Gulf War. After nine and a half years in active duty, he served 28 years as Commander in the Army Reserve. He explains that being in the military is a lesson on how to be a good leader. Oftentimes, people will follow the movement and actions of a quality leader without even having to hear their commands. After finishing his time on active duty, Darrell decided he wanted to get a law degree. Then, the conversation shifts to discussing national security and how Darrell found success with his startup. He gives the U.S. a "C" grade for its national security. This grade is made up of several components, including our safety from external threats as Americans. The last significant security threat the U.S. experienced was on 9/11. While we have been safe from threats of this magnitude since then, other factors have not been as positive. The Army, Navy, and Air Force are facing crisis-level challenges in recruiting enough young people to join. The way to address this problem is by communicating an optimistic method about why it's important to serve our nation. Darrell also explains that our military is not paying significant attention to terrorist groups in Africa, the impact of the cartels in Mexico, and the gangs in Central and South America. Although the world still follows the United States as a world leader, that perspective is becoming more unstable. We must work together to set a positive example and strengthen the reputation of the United States in the eyes of the world. This could be as simple as an American company conducting good business in a foreign country, a soldier who behaves properly in a foreign city, or not letting bad players get away with evil actions. Since the U.S. is a superpower, we must be sure that we are doing this responsibly. Before wrapping up, Darrell discusses the U.S.'s decision to leave Afghanistan and the problems at the Mexican border, both of which set poor examples of America. The key to restoring our reputation is through quality leadership and keeping our word.Learn more about Jeff Newkirk. Do you have any game-changers in your life?

Tim Purdon, Robins Kaplan Law and Chair of the American Indian Law and Policy Group, is on Afternoons Live with Tyler Axness to talk about this decision.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
A train was speeding along the tracks in 19th-century England when a passenger suddenly started smashing windows and waving a pistol in the air. People believed his actions were caused by what was, at the time, a new and unfamiliar form of transportation. Doctors posited the rattling motion and noise of trains could cause passengers to act erratically, creating the short-lived but popular myth of "railway madness."In this episode of Choiceology with Katy Milkman, we look at how people often overreact to poor quality or incomplete information.A sudden explosion in 1889 ripped apart the USS Maine, the United States' largest warship at the time. The ship sank, killing more than half of the sailors on board. The Maine had been anchored in Cuba, and despite having little proof, the American public immediately blamed the Spanish for the sinking. Newspaper editors published headlines such as "Remember the Maine, to Hell with Spain!" Nearly a hundred years later, an underwater investigation would reveal what likely caused the explosion.Historian David Silbey recounts how public pressure from this tragedy pushed the United States to make a decision that would have lasting consequences for the world. David Silbey is a military historian and adjuncta professor and director of teaching and learning at Cornell University. He is also the author of A War of Frontier and Empire: The Philippine-American War, 1899-1902. His new book is called Wars Civil and Great: The American Experience in the Civil War and World War I. Next, Katy speaks with Ned Augenblick about his research that shows people's tendency to overreact to weakly supported information and underreact to strongly supported information. You can read more in the paper he co-authored with Eben Lazarus and Michael Thaler, called "Overinference from Weak Signals and Underinference from Strong Signals."

Could we all be underestimating the dangers of passive vaping? To discuss with Pat was Professor Des Cox Chair of the Policy Group on Tobacco at the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland.
My thesis:"Teaching Hospital and Healthcare personnel the skills and principles of All-Hazards Incident Management pay more positive dividends and develops more well-rounded response skills than teaching the same people how to follow the Hospital Incident Command System (HICS) structures."So, I believe using the standard ICS is more holistic and beneficial than using HICS.Episode takeaways:Choose the most qualified for ICS positions, not the highest rankingLet the situation dictate what's needed in Operations, not the preset HICS structureUse ICS for planned events and unplanned incidentsPractice with internal and external partners, oftenCreate a Policy Group that complements the core ICS org structureRemember...Have a planStay informedGet involved

For de fleste er de olympiske lege hvert fjerde år en unik mulighed for at vinde medaljer til hjemlandet i forskellige sportsgrene. Men for nogle er det også en unik vej væk fra deres hjemland. I år ser vi et eksempel på en, der, i forbindelse med OL, flygter fra sit hjemland af politiske årsager - og så fra et land lige her i Europa; Hviderusland. I dag taler vi tit om folks rettigheder og bryster os herhjemme af vores demokratiske værdier, men vi skal ikke langt tilbage i Danmarkshistorien før billedet var et helt, helt andet. For 200 år siden havde kvinder, fattige, udviklingshæmmede, ansatte på et landbrug eller tjenestefolk i et hjem nemlig ikke nogen særlige rettigheder. I går vandt danske Viktor Axelsen guld i herresingle i badminton ved OL. På Radio4 Morgen talte de derfor med en ekspert om, om han er den største danske badmintonspiller nogensinde. I Blokhus har de anskaffet sig lidt af en attraktion. I Skulpturparken i Blokhus kan man nemlig lige nu se verdens største sandslot. Det er lidt over 21 meter højt, har en diameter på 32 meter og består af svimlende 6400 tons sand. Medvirkende: Jens Worning, direktør i Policy Group og udenrigskommentator på Kristeligt Dagblad, Jens-Kristian Lÿtken, medlem af Københavns Borgerrepræsentation og tidligere formand for SILBA, Anette Faye Jacobsen, historiker og seniorforsker ved Institut for Menneskerettigheder, John Andersen, indehaver af Blokhus Skulpturpark.

OYUB is a Russian documentary play about the life of Oyub Titiev, a human rights activist in the Republic of Chechnya, Russia. ‘How much longer are we going to kill and imprison human rights defenders?’ ‘With every passing year, there are more and more restrictions, and less and less rights.’ Oyub Titiev, Shali Town Court, Chechnya, Russia, 18 March 2019. Oyub Titiev's arrest and subsequent show trial in Chechnya in 2018-19 caught worldwide media attention and drew broad international criticism. Titiev was sentenced to four years imprisonment, but was released on parole three months later, having served out two years in detention since his initial arrest. In 2018, Oyub Titiev was awarded the Václav Havel Human Rights Prize. He now lives in Moscow, where he continues his human rights work. This radio play is read by current human rights activists, not actors (although one of the participants is both). It was recorded by the participants from their homes in the U.K. and Europe during the COVID-19 lockdown. The play was not rehearsed or directed, and is performed as a reading, rather than acted out. Emphasis is placed on the professional connection between participants and Titiev himself, and for this reason their biographies are included below. The play features an introduction by Julie Curtis, who is a Professor of Russian Literature at the University of Oxford. Her work on contemporary Russian drama has been pursued in association with two AHRC (OWRI) research projects hosted by the Universities of Oxford (Creative Multilingualism) and Manchester (Cross-Language Dynamics: Reshaping Community). She is the editor of a volume of essays and interviews on this subject called New Drama in Russian: Performance, Politics and Protest in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus (London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2020), to which the translator of the play, Alex Trustrum Thomas, is a contributor. The play text of OYUB is published by Bookmate Originals and is available as a free e-book in English and in Russian. This is part of a forthcoming anthology of Russian documentary plays being published later this year by Common Place (Moscow). This project was supported by Creative Multilingualism, as part of the Arts and Humanities Research Council’s Open World Research Initiative (OWRI). N.B. Headphones are highly recommended for playback to hear the full range of sounds. Participant biographies, in order of appearance: Peter Wieltschnig is a human rights lawyer, focusing on human security in crisis and conflict as well as the right to water. He has worked on projects including: the protection and empowerment of refugees and displaced persons in Lebanon and Syria, the development of due diligence legislation to regulate the arms industry and States’ arms export regimes, the criminalisation of humanitarian assistance in Europe, and the human rights impacts of counter-terrorism legislation in Ireland and the UK. Jacob Burns is a writer, researcher and journalist who has worked across the Middle East. Currently the Communications Advisor for Yemen, Iraq and Jordan at Médecins sans Frontières, he has previously worked for Amnesty International and Forensic Architecture.

She has worked with Amnesty International in Israel, Palestine and Scotland across a number of campaigns.

To her, addressing gender equality in the workplace means making visible normalised cultural practices, institutionalised dynamics and organisational structures that hinder women and other marginalised groups to strive forward. Although equal treatment and access to opportunities are basic human rights the discrimination of individuals based on aspects of their identity continues to persist in the workplace today.

Spenser Villwock talks with expert construction economist at Sage Policy Group Chairman & CEO, Arniban Basu. They discuss the current impacts of the Coronavirus, COVID-19, on the economy, paying particular attention to how electrical and systems contractors in America can best act in the current time. Basu notes as a “short and vicious” V-shaped market reaction and steep recovery that is something unlike what we have experienced in recent time. The current economic disruption is due to a Supply Shock of the market, versus a Demand Shock, as it was in the Great Recession. The message that Basu shares is one of hope, optimism, yet a strong thread of realism of the current time and how contractors may not only survive, but thrive coming out of the COVID-19 period. Listen in to the podcast and gain terrific insights on something that will be written about in history books forevermore. #MeritShopStrong #WeAreIEC

Første søndag i det nye år tager Verdenspressen en runde i de internationale medier i selskab med Steen Jakobsen, cheføkonom og CIO i Saxo Bank, Jens Worning, direktør i Policy Group og udenrigspolitisk kommentator i Kristeligt Dagblad og Berlingskes sikkerhedskorrespondent, Kristian Mouritzen, som sammen diskuterer nogle af de historier, som de internationale medier vil være præget i året, der kommer - bla. det måske vigtigste valg i EU's historie, som venter lige om hjørnet, Kinas nye magtposition, Ruslands iskolde forhold til Vesten, og hvad der mon er i vente i amerikansk politik.

Hvad skal vi med NATO? Altså ikke OM vi skal have et forsvarssamarbejde, men mere hvordan skal det se ud i fremtiden. For det knirker gevaldigt for tiden. Tyrkiet flirter med Putin i Rusland. Trump har tidligere sået tvivl om det mest essentielle i NATO: nemlig musketer eden. Altså det med, at hvis et NATO land bliver angrebet, så opfattes det straks som et angreb på ALLE NATO-lande. I den amerikanske præsidents efterhånden lange strøm af chokerende udmeldinger hed det sig blandt andet, at hvis et medlemsland ikke brugte det aftalte til det fælles forsvar, kunne det land ikke forvente, at USA så ville ile til hjælp. Danmark er i øvrigt et af mange lande der ikke bruger de lovede to procent af brutto nationalproduktet. I 2016 blev det kun til 1,21 procent, mens det nye forsvarsforlig bringer det op på 1,3 procent. Altså stadig langt fra nok. Men den er ikke kun gal vores side af oceanet. Canada brugte i 2016 kun 0,99procent. Alt imens både Rusland og Kina opruster. Derfor melder spørgsmålet sig: har NATO-landene overhovedet styrkerne til at være både en forsvarspagt og en offensiv organisation? Hvor er Danmark i NATO? For at besvare det har vi talt med generalløjtnant Michael Lollesgaard, Danmarks militære repræsentant i NATO, Jens Ringsmose, Institutchef for Militære operationer hos Forsvarsakademi, Søren Espersen folketingsmedlem og formand for Udenrigspolitisk Nævn og Jens Worning, direktør i Policy Group, samt tidligere generalkonsul for Udenrigsministeriet i Sankt Petersborg. Ordstyreren er Folk og Sikkerheds formand Peter M. Andersen, som selv er uddannet officer. Det er netop ham der lægger fra land nu i debatten ”Hvad betyder NATO for Danmark”: Hør magasinet/podcast her
Robo financial advice is seen as a way of ‘democratising’ financial advice and of providing low cost financial advice to consumers. Financial institutions, regulators and consumers are increasingly aware, however, of the statutory obligations of advice providers. Could this statutory focus distract from other compliance obligations? In particular, equitable fiduciary obligations may bind those who provide robo financial advice. This Look Who’s Talking was hosted by Law Society of NSW President Doug Humphreys OAM and UNSW Law Dean Professor George Williams AO and featured a panel of experts including: Jessica Hudson, Senior Lecturer, UNSW Law Alistair McKeough, Managing Director, Whittens & McKeough Simun Soljo, Managing Associate, Allens Moderator: Simone Degeling, Professor and Co-Director, Private Law Research & Policy Group, UNSW Law

Hvad er status i handelskrigen mellem USA - Kina og Europa? Hvorfor er det så svært at danne regering i Italien - og bliver italienerne en klods om benet på EU i de kommende budgetforhandlinger?

Resources Future of Privacy Forum When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi News Roundup Trump considers re-joining the Trans-Pacific Partnership Erica Werner, Damian Paletta and Seung Min Kim reported for the Washington Post that President Trump has ordered officials to look into the possibility of re-joining the Trans-Pacific Partnership –that’s the trade partnership between eleven nations, including Japan, Vietnam and Singapore. The Obama administration had signed the agreement, and Mexico and Canada are participating. But Trump backed out. Now he wants back in, presumably to gain negotiating leverage against China. U.S./UK Accuse Russians of hacking home routers There are fresh allegations today from British and American officials regarding Russia’s spying program. Apparently, Russians may have hacked routers belonging to small businesses and home offices. British intelligence, the National Security Council, DHS and the FBI made the announcement saying they had “high confidence” that Russia led cyberattacks into internet service providers, network routers, government and critical infrastructure. You can find the report in Forbes. FCC’s Pai won’t investigate Sinclair Remember the viral video from a few weeks ago in which news anchors on Sinclair TV stations around the country were reading the exact same script? Well, despite the request from 11 Democratic Senators plus Bernie Sanders, who is an Independent, to investigate Sinclair for distorting new coverage, FCC Chairman Ajit Pai has declined. He cites the First Amendment. The FCC’s inspector general is currently investigating Pai for improperly paving the way for Sinclair’s acquisition of Tribune Media. Brett Samuels reports in The Hill. Apple warns employees about leaking Mark Gurman reports in Bloomberg on a leaked memo from inside Apple to employees warning them about leaks.

New paper finds women find chilly environment in tech companies A new paper out of the Clayman Institute for Gender Research and Stanford University finds that more women are earning STEM degrees. But they are finding the tech companies in which they find jobs to be stifling environments. Contributing to the chilly environments women technologists often find themselves in are the overt usage of gender stereotypes, an exclusive “geek” culture and other factors that discourage some women from advancing in tech.
Bernadette del Chiaro is the Executive Director of CalSEIA, solar's most successful State policy advocates. Bernadette comes from a history of State policy advocacy in energy and the environment and has been leading CalSEIA for many years. Running CalSEIA as a lean and mean advocacy group that puts members first is Bernadette's goal. Every policy call is open to the over 400 members and has an elected board. Legislators in Sacramento know and understand that CalSEIA represents the California solar industry and respects the work it does alongside its consultants and lobbyists. The conversation about SEIA and State Chapters comes up and we discuss how the two groups co-exist at the State level. SEIA does maintain full-time staff in California which, at times, has caused issues in the advocacy.

About this event: The numbers are far from where they should be and not where they will be in the near future. However, the percent of women's hours on construction projects covered by the Boston Resident Jobs Policy has doubled from 3% to 6% in the past three years. UMass Boston's ISC project has consistently attained 10% hours by women-the first project in the city to ever hit the goal that was set over 30 years ago. What is driving these successes? What needs to happen to maintain momentum and grow greater opportunities for women to enter the good-paying jobs in an expanding regional industry? Speakers include: Mukiya Baker-Gomez, Manager of Compliance for the UMass Boston Integrated Sciences Complex, Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance (DCAMM) Brian Doherty, General Agent, Metro Boston Building Trades Council Samilys Rodriguez, Compliance Officer, Suffolk Construction Liz Skidmore, Business Manager, New England Regional Council of Carpenters Susan Moir (moderator), Director, UMass Boston's Labor Resource Center LRC and Policy Group on Tradeswomen Issues
President Obama's re-election hasn’t changed the fact that the nation remains divided along party lines. However, there is one important part of his agenda where there seems to be common ground and that is in fixing the nation’s broken criminal justice system. Americans from all parts of the political spectrum are ready to take a more pragmatic approach to justice issues that once divided the country. How will the second Obama Administration take advantage of this shift? Guests: Gloria Browne-Marshall is an associate professor of constitutional law at John Jay College. A former civil rights attorney, she’s founder of the Law and Policy Group. She’s also an award-winning playwright. Glenn Martin is Vice President of Development and Public affairs at the Fortune Society, which works to help ex-offenders reintegrate into their communities. He’s director of the Society’s David Rothenberg Center for Public Policy, and a member of the New York City Council to End Gun Violence.
