The more I play with #ChatGPT the more insane it gets. I just put in a business idea and asked to generate a business plan for the same. I did this three times in a row and now I have gotten 5 pages of material for a potential business I don't intend to do :)

The effects of geopolitics on technology are just as important to consider as the converse (effect of tech on geopolitics), as Min Jaishankar is pointing out at #GlobalTechSummit. Africa has a seat on this table, though unlikely to sing from the same hymn book…

Trusted Geographies will play a key role in distributed globalization - sociology and policy will play a key role in establishing a basis for trust #GlobalTechSummit

Just-In-Case over Just-In-Time - an intriguing model for global supply chain security. A welcome sense of a #blackswan/#antifragile approach expressed in MEA's keynote! #GlobalTechSummit
Building a relationship with learners is the first and foremost thing a teacher should do. Text book is an aid, not the medium of your teaching. Well said @kavita_anand

Adding some more ingredients to the taxonomy/ontology conversation - are protocols more proximal to ontologies and platforms more proximal to taxonomies? lnkd.in/d6_YwNXD #protocols #platforms #taxonomy #ontology #graohofallthings #mojogoat

Trying to distinguish taxonomy from ontology and epistemology #mojogoat #GOAT #graphofallthings

Taxonomy appears to be about categories/folders/hierarchies, while ontology appears to be about labels/tags/properties #GOAT #mojogoat🐐

Also, if ontology defines the data structure, does epistemology define the code that navigates it? #mojogoat #GOAT #graphofallthings

I agree. Active mentoring is helpful. Also, helping young people, especially girls, to see that it is a helpful technology when it is deployed and managed correctly and that they can use it to help people and solve social problems. #AI #Ethics #AIEthics #womenintech #intoAIEthics

Instead of the first q being 'how do we profit from this tech project?' we should start with 'what harm will it do?' from initial vision to sign-off. This is why #diversity and #inclusion are crucial so all views are brought to the table. #AI #Ethics #AIEthics #intoAIEthics
