Re: IOT Future
Michelle,
CSER tends to worry about our having no descendants. That could happen of course but I think it's more likely we will have plenty of biological descendants -- we just won't understand them. Much of what we accomplish will be retold into our efforts leading up to their existence but in fact we not only won't have intended them to exist, we won't even grasp what matters to them.

Re: IOT Future
@mpouraryan, an outstanding example! Thanks for sharing.
I believe this is where you will really see implementation take hold. This is a great blend of machine and human intelligence! Our favorite combination!
Hope you had a great Memorial Day!

Re: IOT Future
@JohnBarnes, I have read and thoroughly enjoyed The Shallows. I think if we lose the ability to think we will all be in trouble.
Great intellectual stimulation - thanks!

Re: IOT Future
DHagar,
THE SHALLOWS is indeed a scary book. A fun exercise: look at the Amazon 1- and 2- star reviews of the book, and you will see a very large number of people who are having exactly the problems thinking that the book describes (and are really cheesed off that anyone thinks anything is wrong with that!)

Re: IOT Future
@JohnBarnes - Oh my! I will do!
Re: IOT Future
Happy June and thanks for the kind sentiments @DHagar.
The challenge, as I see it (and we've discussed it) to make sure we continue to stay in charge. Whether in fact this happens or not is the ultimate question--isn't it?
Onward..as I look forward to the on-going deliberations throughout the month.

Re: IOT Future
@mpouraryan, indeed. This is more than a philosophical debate, it truly is about taking leadership to ensure that decisions are made up and down the line that are more than expedient, but are thoughtful in balancing accountability, resources, and ultimate execution. That truly requires optimum machine AND human intelligence.
If we don't lead, then we will have no excuse. So thoughtful opinions and education (ie Telco Transformation), keep us focused on the right track. If we choose, we will lead appropriately.
Happy June as well!

Re: IOT Future
@batye, great points! Humans are truly capable of continuing to learn - whereas machines are fed the learning and then catch up. If we keep that in mind, we will get smarter. If we just hold onto what we have learned, then we will be surpassed.
