Refocus your “Information Lens” everytime again…
A great comment appeared today on the site of Nature:Decision makers need constantly updated evidence synthesis “Science does not stand still; neither should its synthesis and translation into action.” Startin with a focus on COVID-19, it clearly states the wider importance: Evidence synthesis .. helps to tackle questions in education, economics, environment, criminal justice, global…

World Model – “Free Energy” Selections of Perception & Policy
During their lives humans constantly interact with the physical environment, as well as with themselves and others.World model learning and inference are crucial concepts in brain and cognitive science, as well as in AI and robotics. The outstanding challenges of building a generalpurpose AI needs world modelling and probabilistic inference, needed to realise a brain-like…

Designing for Human-AI interaction is hard. (So steal like an artist :-)
Following is and interesting article/blog , and just “stolen like an artist” from https://www.simonoregan.com/short-thoughts/the-design-difficulties-of-human-ai-interaction Designing for Human-AI interaction is hard. Here Yang et al. catalog where designers run into problems when applying the traditional 4Ds process to designing AI systems. These difficulties can be broadly attributed to two sources: This uncertainty and complexity combination then…

VVUQ your model and twin – should we trust ?
The world is moving towards digital twins. I recently came across a insightfull article: A probabilistic graphical model foundation for enabling predictive digital twins at scale, available at Arxiv – & published Nature The digital twin is a set of coupled computational models that evolve over time to persistently represent the structure, behavior, and context…

Less = More, “Lets Kill”
One of the great readings recently was the article from Adams, G.S., Converse, B.A., Hales, A.H. et al. in Nature: People systematically overlook subtractive changes. The summary video, clearly marks the point: Experiments show that people default to adding as a solution in various situations. It appears to be an uncommon insight. When solving problems, people prefer adding…

Biological thinking – BCG
I want to share this BCG article on Biological Thinking, messy management for a complex world. Biological thinking matters for several important reasons: First, in complex adaptive systems, there is no single formula or framework that always works. In fact, the very defiance of formulaic problem solving is what makes CAS management so challenging initially.…

Information Lens – More than IT
The Information Lens principle is showing clear in the economics of recent times. A shift from the current globalized capitalism towards more value-based and stakeholder driven economies is happening slowly. In order to make this happen, the economies have to bring in the insights and information on these stakeholders and values, including a data-economy. “Globalization…
