Personal and Enterprise Resiliency: Going from BANI to REAL

The Cold War's predictable MAD framework has given way to today's BANI world—Brittle, Anxious, Non-linear, Incomprehensible, which is why we need new AI-powered enterprise systems to restore control and resilience.

How Close is the Singularity?

Experts are divided on when or if AI will surpass human intelligence (the Singularity). Some predict it's near, others doubt it will happen. While AGI could transform industries, major technical and scientific hurdles remain. Caution and optimism both persist.

Autonomous Decision Science™ and the Digital Enterprise

This article discusses the difference between data science and decision science and argues that decision science is more important for businesses and introduces the concept of Autonomous Decision Science (ADS) as the next step in decision science. ADS uses AI to make decisions at machine speed with human-like judgment.

China Takes the Lead in Multimodal Artificial Intelligence

This article discusses a new kind of artificial intelligence (AI) called multimodal AI. Unlike traditional AI, which focuses on one type of data (e.g., text, images), multimodal AI can process many data types together, as humans do. This allows for a more comprehensive understanding of the world. The article also mentions a race between the US and China in developing AI. China recently released a powerful multimodal AI model called WuDao 2.0, which may be more sophisticated than other systems.
