Every Monday someone in the company gives a 5-10 min talk on something that's on their mind. This week I took some time to reflect on 5 trends in technology that I think are very likely to shape the next ten years of our lives
SSIP's T-shaped movement is about open innovation for people's knowledge (what), skills (how), attitudes (why), and networks (who) - know what, know how, know why, know who.

Using agile automation methodology to automate business processesUiPath
Daniel Dines, CEO of UiPath, talks to Innovation Nation
about how UiPath’s Robotic Process Automation (RPA)
technology has become an integral part of Capgemini’s
Business Services solutions, as well as dispelling some
myths about the hype around robotics and automation.
The financial services industry is evolving. New players are challenging the incumbents with an extraordinary variety of products and services as has never happened before. Financial industry’s players must adequate strategies, products portfolio and services delivered according to the new wave of emerging customers’ behaviors. Recent analysis where showing that something very new and unexpected should be taken in great consideration. Something very “human”. In a world of digital services, ancestral humans behavior demands a service revolution.
Symphony Ventures conducted a market survey to determine how much hype surrounds Robotic Process Automation. Do companies understand what it is? Do they know how to buy these software bots? Do they depend on the marketing coming from the software vendors themselves or are there resources to help them vet the market? Ian Barkin, Co-Founder and Head of Strategy at Symphony Ventures, presented our survey findings at the IRPA OAISS seminar in Chicago.

Robotic process automation in Industry 4.0 - Andrea CasatiOpenKnowledge srl
After mechanization in 1790’s (first industrial revolution), mass production in 1900’s (second industrial revolution) and automated production in 1970’s (third industrial revolution), in the next five years we will see the rise of cyber-physical systems, the fourth industrial revolution. As part of the Industry 4.0, Robotic Process Automation (RPA) will radically change both backend and frontend enterprises infrastructures and processes leading to significant cost reduction, production increase and higher customer satisfaction. Hardware and software robots will be designed to augment human workflow making it more efficient and effective. Core enabler of the whole fourth industry revolution will be analytics, machine learning and artificial intelligence based on big data and IoT, all ready technologies now-a-days. After discussing some recent Bip’s case studies on machine learning and artificial intelligence technologies, the speech will focus RPA opportunities in Industry 4.0.

Capgemini Consulting RPA: the next revolution of Corporate FunctionsUiPath
More than ever, Technology reached a tipping point in
the optimization of Corporate Functions.
Similar to robotization of production lines in the 90’s, Corporate
Functions are initiating today their robotic transformation/
revolution.
We believe Robotic Process Automation or RPA is the lever
that will take these Corporate Functions to the next level by:
• Improving employee and customer satisfaction
• Accelerating productivity gains
• Enhancing compliance
To reach these benefits, RPA must be implemented on key
Corporate Functions that include repetitive, standardized
and transactional processes and activities such as Finance,
Compliance, Treasury and Marketing.
Within these Corporate Functions, not all processes and
activities are eligible to RPA though, hence the need to select
them carefully in order to reap the maximum benefit from
RPA implementation.
An additional RPA key success factor consists of paying a
particular attention to design an appropriate implementation
journey sticking to company specifics.
Robotic process automation: who is buying, and why?UiPath
I recommend business decision-makers use this logic as a lodestone to guide themselves past any confusion; the
point of innovative technology must be better automation, because only better automation can produce better business
outcomes.

Methods and techniques for monitoring, surveillance and profiling of cyberspace activities are available to state actors and criminal operators as well as to skilled individuals.
Civilian individuals without extensive knowledge and exposure to counter-intelligence techniques and Operations Security (OPSEC) protocols are vulnerable and helpless against these privacy breaches. This represents significant gap between actors and their victims – gap that can be bridged only through education.
The primary objective of this workshop oriented activity is to educate people operating in above-average risk situations in cyberspace and to bridge the unfair gap between them and malicious actors. Secondary objective aims at understanding how cyber security can be taught to non-security minded people in efficient way.

You online: Identity, Privacy, and the SelfAbhay Agarwal
In the current landscape of media and communication, our world is undergoing immense and rapid transformations in the breadth, and format of how we interconnect. At the same time, it is difficult for even the most technically adept to fully comprehend the scope of these projects. This talk is a musing on the ideas behind online identity and mass communication in the 21st century. It intends to partially unravel the mystery behind networked social identity, as well as provide the tools for even the technically-disinclined to understand the possibilities for control, surveillance, freedom, and liberated identity within this new topology.
Some included topics:
* Online surveillance, and how deleting your Facebook isn’t enough
* Big Data analytics: why your data is worth money, and the (im)possibility of privacy
* Theories and Paradoxes in a hyper-connected future
* Alternative internets, (or darkness) and what they represent.
How to design a decentralisation: is blockchain & token needed or just a buzz...Pandora Boxchain
A presentation from a talk of Dr Maxim Orlovsky on Bitcoin Meetup in Munich https://www.meetup.com/Bitcoin-Munich/events/255206212/
The rise of blockchain technologies has given a promise of massive decentralisation, that may solve problems of fragile central parts, transparency, middle-men, conflicts of interests in many industries. The talk starts with the wider discussion of the "blockchain" ecosystem and the possible practical use-cases it may have inspired, paying attention to the traps of bad practices and anti-patterns, like using a token as a solution for all of the problems.
In the second part, we describe a practical use case where the decentralisation is needed: censorship-resistant computing and AI platform. The global community has become aware of many economic, social and futuristic problems that can appear due to dramatic progress in Artificial Intelligence development over the recent years. Can blockchain solve at least some of these problems, or make them worse? How two of these technologies can be synergic and what challenges have to be solved on the route for building decentralised AI applications? A decentralised network with resistance to censorship is essential if we are ever to see a general AI evolving to near- or post-human intelligence.
These slides accompanied my lecture to Pakistan's Plan 9 startups and IT University students (26.11.2014). They might not make much sense if you weren't there :)
For millennia people worked in relative stability with industries sustained by very little change for hundreds of years. Even the industrial revolution saw a high degree of stability after the initial disruption. Mining, foundries, railways, shipping, mills etc employed thousands for a lifetime. This saw the creation of new towns and cities dedicated to major industries and gave rise to the illusion of job security - a notion that persists in many political minds today.
In <50 years that heritage has been swept away by technology and globalisation. The future now belongs to the mobile, the connected, the networkers and the most adaptable. A lifetimes employment in one job in one sector living in one place is rare. Even mining and agriculture are increasingly automated to require fewer people with less muscle and more tech skills. And while the media feature the destruction of jobs and a total takeover by the machines, the empirical evidence shows a growing number of vacancies for the skilled and those educated to adapt to the new needs of an age of robotics and artificial intelligence.
Everybody, every society and country, now face significant challenges in the need to change and adapt to technological advance….
“ Exactly like Mother Nature and biological evolution, technological evolution shows no compassion and no care - it really is about the survival of the most adaptable”
The IT industry is in the middle of one of its regular swings between centralisation and decentralisation, driven by increased automation of the network fabric itself, as well as new use cases such as IoT. With more and more processing and autonomy devolved to the edges, old assumptions about how to manage and operate a network have to change. It no longer makes sense to try to forward all the edge alerts to a central location for analysis, but central visibility on the health of the network is more important than ever.
New techniques in AI-enabled observability hold the promise of helping NOC teams deliver better experiences for users of their networks, without requiring excessive manual work or heavy impact on on Operations teams’ personal lives. Machine learning enables knowledge to be captured and made available in context when it is most useful, accelerating incident resolution and improving user experiences.

4. New Vocabulary
(I'm teaching you bad, bad words...)
• Outsourcing
• Precariat
• ‘Playbor’
• ‘The Vectoral
Class’
• ‘Audience
Commodity’
• Neoliberalism
McKenzie Wark: the
vectoral class is the one
whocontrols vectors of
information distribution
The dangers of neoliberalism: it destroys local economies and
works tothe advantage of largercapital owners.
5. Precariat vs. Digital White Collar
• ‘Freedom’
• Learns on the go
• Replaceable
• Works from
anywhere
• Small jobs, small
projects
• Sell themselves
• Social security
• Educated
• Headhunted
• Office hours
• Large and
challenging
projects
• Sales departments
find clients
7. Total Export of ICT Services
If we divideit per
population,thenwe are
betterthanRussiaand
Ukraine, but worsethan
LithuaniaandPoland,and
Latvia takesthe firstplace.
9. Back to Belarus
• We are a part of global job market now.
• We might be a bit better with English than Russia or Ukraine.
• Internet access is relatively high, most likely computers are
widely available.
• The level of social security is still relatively high.
• (Another side of the same coin) The legal system is still
backward, high level of legal uncertainty.
• Living standards are quite high, exploitative ‘digital labor’ not
so lucrative.
• Legal, language and organizational skills are still helping. (And
everyone’s an economist.)
• Disastrous state in the management and HR departments.
10.
11. The Dark Side
• We don’t have any sustainable domestic industry (and
we might not be able to afford it in the future). That's
why EPAM Systems and Wargaming invest in R&D.
• No matter if we like it, we are just a convenient
assembly line (just like in the Soviet times). Look at the
history of the USSR and guess what happens if the
current order fails (and Trump is capable of making it
fail miserably).
• Look at China – they have never been great at
outsourced development, but China has been investing
fortunes into R&D for decades, and now they are
buying American companies.
12.
13. R&D Expenses as % of GDP, 2013, UNESCO
Latvia 0.61
Belarus 0.67
Ukraine 0.76
Poland 0.87
Lithuania 0.95
Russia 1.13
China 2.01
USA 2.73
14. Conclusion
• We won’t see much exploitative ‘digital labor’ here.
• People and companies are relatively ‘digitally literate’,
comparing to Russia and Ukraine, so they ‘fight for their
rights’.
• Wargaming is a Cyprus company. Viber is an Israeli
company. Epam Systems is a USA company. Even MapsMe
was a Swiss company before Mail.ru bought it. Think about
it. Think why.
• Outsourcing drains the resources that could be spent on
research and development.
• In a long-term perspective, the industry might still generate
stable income, on behalf of transnational companies
acquiring successful projects.
“Digital labor” is a term to describe the state of the global labor market in the age of Internet.
McKenzie Wark: the vectoral class is the one who controls vectors of information distribution
The dangers of neoliberalism: it destroys local economies and works to the advantage of larger capital owners.
If we divide it per population, then we are better than Russia and Ukraine, but worse than Lithuania and Poland, and Latvia takes the first place.
Actually, Latvia is also the country with the highest level of poverty, according to the same statistics. Latvia is just too small. Latvian statistics are crazy. Statistics for small countries are crazy!
This index also shows high correlation between ICT export and the level of English proficiency.
