The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the fiftieth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by the Commander of Ops Group (COG), COL Matthew Hardman. Today's guest is a Senior Research Fellow for the Army Research Laboratory at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, Dr. Robert Semmens. He has a PhD from Stanford University in how people learn with technology.   The U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Army Research Laboratory (DEVCOM ARL) is the U.S. Army's foundational research laboratory. The United States Military Academy (USMA) is a United States service academy in West Point, New York. It was originally established as a fort during the Revolutionary War, as it sits on strategic high ground overlooking the Hudson River 50 miles (80 km) north of New York City. It is the oldest of the five American service academies and educates cadets for commissioning into the United States Army.   In this episode we discuss warfighting on the modern battlefield, the incorporation of technology as a combat multiplier, and preparing the force for AI centric warfare of the future. The science and technology team from ARL had four major take-aways for Army robotics of the future based on their observation of the rotation: Time-scale matters, especially when comparing combat units to combat support units. How are we going to man these units that oversee autonomous unmanned systems? How much training and education do these individuals need? What does the Army needs manufactured vs. what does the Army need to train for proficiency as it applies to robotics? How do we sustain this new force? What does the supply chain look like, especially as it pertains to contested logistics in LSCO?   The science and technology team from ARL usually doesn't have very much interaction with the end-user, the warfighter, but were afforded the opportunity to spend nearly a week with the rotational training unit as they worked through the crucible that is the JRTC experience. This provided the team with invaluable insights into the actual needs of the warfighter as they work towards a variety of autonomous unmanned systems that can operate in groups effectively across a wide variety of support functions.   Part of S01 “The Leader's Laboratory” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast   Be sure to follow us on social media to keep up with the latest warfighting TTPs learned through the crucible that is the Joint Readiness Training Center.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.

Christine Ha, an award-winning blind chef and restauranteur, shares her experience grappling with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). Facing relapses with the inability to walk and feed herself that challenged her independence, she leaned on the support from family and friends. As she lost her sight due to optic neuritis in both eyes, Ms. Ha had to embark on a journey of rediscovery in the kitchen, starting with the fundamentals. Winning MasterChef Season 3 marked a turning point, propelling her culinary career forward despite the obstacles posed by her disability.  NMOSD is an autoimmune disease in which an antibody attacks water channels on astrocyte cells in the optic nerves, spinal cord and sometimes the brain. Attacks or relapses can be devastating and incomplete recovery from attacks is typical. Like Ms. Ha, some people living with the condition can be misdiagnosed with multiple sclerosis. A blood test for the aquaporin-4 antibody is key to getting diagnosed correctly early. Since 2019, highly effective treatment options have been FDA-approved that reduce relapses by 77-94%. Barry Singer MD, Director of The MS Center for Innovations in Care, interviews: Christine Ha, "The Blind Cook".  Her first cookbook, Recipes from My Home Kitchen, was a New York Times best-seller. Ms. Ha's first restaurant in Houston, The Blind Goat, was named a semi-finalist for 2020 Best New Restaurant in America by the James Beard Foundation. She was also named a James Beard finalist for Best Chef in Texas in 2022.

If you're looking for a different type of cleared professional experience, yet still want to support the mission, this could be it. With over 1,600 employees, the Applied Research Laboratory at Penn State is probably bigger than you realize, and their needs are broad-based and extend beyond Happy Valley. Learn from Deputy Director Meghan Flannery Hayes how you might fit in. “It's very collaborative. It's about a lot of teams -- small teams -- and then building new and different teams. You're not always on the same team. But we do a lot of cross collaboration across our four offices, because we find that innovation happens at those interfaces. When you put a material scientist in the same room as someone who specializes in antennas, signals processing, suddenly you're printing antennas with graphene on the sides of things, right? Suddenly, you're doing new kinds of interesting things. And really then solving problems and solving gaps.”Find show notes and additional links at: https://clearedjobs.net/applied-research-laboratory-at-penn-state-podcast/

How and why, in the latter half of the twentieth century, did informatic theories of “code” developed around cybernetics and information theory take root in research settings as varied as Palo Alto family therapy, Parisian semiotics, and new-fangled cultural theories ascendant at US liberal arts colleges? Drawing on his recently published book “Code: From Information Theory to French Theory,” and primary sources from the MIT archives, this talk explores how far-flung technocratic exercises in Asian colonies and MIT's Research Laboratory of Electronics (RLE) inspired these varied and diverse audiences in a common dream of “learning to code.” The result is a new history of the ambitions behind the rise of “theory” in the US humanities, and the obscure ties of that endeavor to Progressive Era technocracy, US foundations, and the growing prestige of technology and engineering in 20th century life. Bernard Dionysius Geoghegan is a Reader in the History and Theory of Digital Media at King's College London. An overarching theme of his research is how “cultural” and “humanistic” sciences shape—and are shaped by—digital media. His attention to cultural factors in technical systems also figured in his work as a curator, notably for the Anthropocene and Technosphere projects at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt. Duke University Press recently published his book Code: From Information Theory to French Theory (2023), based partly on archival research he undertook as a visiting PhD student at MIT around 2008.

The Agile Professional Learning Network of Chicago is planning a new kind of conference / learning opportunity.  Listen as Rick interviews the APLN board as they share their vision for RESEARCH LABORATORY 2021 – coming in May! This Research Laboratory will be somewhat a cross between a Conference, a Hackathon, and an Open Space.  Kind of like a Choose Your Own Adventure conference.  There will be a Call for Challenges From Organizations, instead of the normal Call for Papers.  The attendees will select, or volunteer for  helping these organizations, and work with them to fix their problems over the next several months. This will allow organizations that can't normally afford Agile Consultants the opportunity to benefit from their help. In a sense, this Research Laboratory will generate the content that most Agile Conferences end up with. Listen to the podcast for more details.  And check out the APLN Chicago page .

New social behaviors have emerged, such as the subtle art (and the draining headache) of flirting through emojis and even sending nudes. Are relationships the social ritual that has been the most affected by technology? Are dating apps the reason why love has become both more social and anti-social, all at the same time? Join us in investigating the state of love in the age of dating apps, the developing immersive virtual realities, and human-robotics interactions.Lina Maria Mannheimer is a Swedish filmmaker that set out to investigate young love. She decided to follow two Millennials over the internet, to track each of their dating habits, and see how they create their digital personas over a year. Having found her two subjects, the film takes an unforeseen twist when they start dating one another.Dr. Josue Ortega is a researcher at the Center for European Economic Research in Mannheim, Germany.

Dr Elizabeth Jochum is Associate Professor at the Department of Communication and Psychology at Aalborg University in Denmark. She also conducts research at the Research Laboratory for Art and Technology, where she looks at the integration of robotics in the arts sector, mainly dance and choreography. Having worked extensively with robotics over the past decade, Dr Jochum is increasingly skeptical of media's sometimes simplified description of robotics and AI, and how the future will play out with regards to these fields. The robots are not "coming to take our jobs", but if we can learn how to collaborate better with them, there are immense opportunities for our society. We met Elizabeth at the Gather 2019 conference in Stockholm. Podcast host: Christian von Essen // Learn more at: http://www.hejaframtiden.se
