Arthur D. Little - Publications: Viewpoints “E-lectric” customers Understanding customers’ online engagement with their power and gas utilities: The case of Spain "Utilities, brace for the online impact."The shift to online channels has long since ceased to be a current topic among companies in retail and banking, for example. These companies have redefined the customer relationship model, not only in their industries, but in other sectors as well. The utilities industry, which has traditionally not been engagement intensive, is being affected by this model redefinition and progressively moving to digital channels.
Basque country 4.0. Industria inteligente en Euskadi Basque Industry 4.0 abre en Euskadi el debate sobre la cuarta revolución industrial. La Jornada del día 15 de octubre recoge en un mismo foro experiencias, tendencias, estrategia y la ponencia de uno de los expertos en la materia con mayor reconocimiento y experiencia a nivel mundial, Wolfgang Wahlster, quien subrayó el potencial de Euskadi como industria pionera en la materia Arantza Tapia, consejera de Desarrollo Económico y Competitividad abre la jornada presentando las estrategias diseñadas desde el Gobierno Vasco que posibilitan que Euskadi se sume al ‘renacimiento industrial’ por el que abogan potencias mundiales como EE UU, Alemania o el Reino Unido, donde se apuesta por una industria manufacturera que genere competitividad y empleo en el propio país. En Basque Industry 4.0. se presentan y analizan también las principales tendencias que van a potenciar la fabrica 4.0, explicadas por especialistas en cada una de ellas. Wolfgang Wahlster.
Veille informationnelle The 2012 Patent Rankings: IBM on Top (Again), Google and Apple Surging Seth Wenig/Associated PressI.B.M. was granted a patent last year for the technology used in the Watson computer that bested “Jeopardy!” champions. In the yearly count of patents granted in the United States, the corporate front-runner for 2012 is scarcely a surprise. I.B.M. was granted more patents in 2012 than any other company, the 20th consecutive year in the top spot, according to the annual tally by IFI Claims Patent Services, published on Thursday. The technology giant is flush these days, so its patent pre-eminence in recent years seems routine. Google and Apple, rivals in the smartphone patent wars, were the big movers. Last year, Apple was awarded 1,236 patents, or 68 percent more than in 2011. “Google and Apple are clearly taking intellectual property very seriously, and playing to win,” said Mike Baycroft, chief executive of IFI, a patent research firm. But another Apple rival, Samsung Electronics, was granted 5,081 patents, second only to I.B.M. The Google patent count, Mr.

Stephen Hawking: This will be the impact of automation and AI on jobs British scientist Prof. Stephen Hawking gives his 'The Origin of the Universe' lecture to a packed hall December 14, 2006 at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel. Hawking suffers from ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis or Lou Gehrigs disease), which has rendered him quadriplegic, and is able to speak only via a computerized voice synthesizer which is operated by batting his eyelids. David Silverman/Getty Images Artificial intelligence and increasing automation is going to decimate middle class jobs, worsening inequality and risking significant political upheaval, Stephen Hawking has warned. In a column in The Guardian, the world-famous physicist wrote that "the automation of factories has already decimated jobs in traditional manufacturing, and the rise of artificial intelligence is likely to extend this job destruction deep into the middle classes, with only the most caring, creative or supervisory roles remaining."

blog maverick » the mark cuban weblog Direction des études économiques du Crédit Agricole La crise que nous vivons inscrit une rupture mais c'est aussi un formidable accélérateur de changements. Un moment charnière où rien n'est écrit d'avance. Ce monde en mouvement est plus complexe, plus risqué et plus instable. Il bouleverse les repères, bouscule les croyances mais c'est aussi un monde de défis et d'opportunités. Les équipes d'économistes, d'ingénieurs, d'analystes de Crédit Agricole S.A sont à votre service pour vous aider à mieux saisir le sens et les enjeux de ces bouleversements. Isabelle Job-Bazille, Credit Agricole S.A. Understanding the 4 Types of A.I. The common, and recurring, view of the latest breakthroughs in artificial intelligence research is that sentient and intelligent machines are just on the horizon. Machines understand verbal commands, distinguish pictures, drive cars and play games better than we do. How much longer can it be before they walk among us? The new White House report on artificial intelligence takes an appropriately skeptical view of that dream. It says the next 20 years likely won’t see machines “exhibit broadly-applicable intelligence comparable to or exceeding that of humans,” though it does go on to say that in the coming years, “machines will reach and exceed human performance on more and more tasks.” As an AI researcher, I’ll admit it was nice to have my own field highlighted at the highest level of American government, but the report focused almost exclusively on what I call “the boring kind of AI.” We need to do more than teach machines to learn. Type I AI: Reactive machines Type II AI: Limited memory
La boite à outils du veilleur 2.0 Tech and Internet Industry News - HuffPost Tech Espace Institutions Financières - Natixis - Recherche Economique Digital Thinking | Cognizant Technology Solutions A paperless ICU and better post-op care Narayana Health Open-heart surgery patients at Narayana Health are living longer, healthier lives as a result of the hospital’s paperless intensive care unit, where a family of iPad apps integrates with medical equipment to feed medical teams instant, relevant patient data that improves care during the critical first hours after surgery. Cognizant collaborated with Narayana Health to develop an automated and digitally transformed ICU system that brings a single, accurate window on patient status to an iPad at each patient’s bed. Leveraging data from equipment, lab, imaging, clinicians and patient records into a single source of truth improves handoffs from shift to shift and control of infection risk throughout the unit, and leaves fewer opportunities for human error. Approach: Impact: increase in patient satisfaction reduction in human oversights of standard processes increase in nurses’ efficiency reduction in length of stay in ICU
