CoVID-19, II

The graphical approach to problem-solving is a good idea. "The horizontal axis describes how readily your company can address the problem; the vertical axis describes how much benefit will derive from addressing the problem. Companies should be looking for problems that sit in the upper-right corner...."

On another note, I missed the registration for Stanford Rebuild (unfortunately). I'd like to contribute to the public think tank on post-CoVID solutions. I'll revisit the Rebuild web page for updates.​

I think augmentation AI and replacement AI get the most focus in popular conversation. These four classifications, however, define AI as a utility for collaboration with human cognitive effort. Further, the report examines the devolution of human cognitive effort if dependent on the technology.

I never thought of the internet of the '90s in terms of its "imagined audience." One of [my] school librarians would recommend Google to [us] students, and I myself thought of it and the Web as a digital library.
​

Not anymore. Google, Facebook and other social media may be of public interest, but they're not a public service. They're commercial enterprises and publicly traded. Not a problem. Nonetheless, I agree with the professor when she notes the library (I'll emphasize public library) and librarians as another resource for research and information.
