Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving CarsLinkedIn
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere, promising self-driving cars, medical breakthroughs, and new ways of working. But how do you separate hype from reality? How can your company apply AI to solve real business problems?
Here’s what AI learnings your business should keep in mind for 2017.

The document is a figure showing a global risks landscape for 2010. It plots the likelihood of various risks against the potential economic loss severity. Most risks have a likelihood between 1-10% and potential losses between $50-250 billion. A few high impact risks have the potential for over $1 trillion in losses with likelihoods between 1-5%.

The document discusses the Czech mobile phone user market. Some key points:
- Nearly 12 million active SIM cards exist, serving approximately 10 million inhabitants. Double SIM usage is common.
- Mobile phone users tend to be younger, male, employed and more politically moderate compared to non-users who are often female, seniors, retired, and left-leaning.
- Mobile operators now focus on retention, loyalty programs, value-added services, content and CRM to manage their millions of customers as customer acquisition goals have changed.
- Segmentation of the large customer base is important but challenging. Basic approaches include socio-demographic, customers, marketing, and research-based segments.
Infrastructure in Africa - February 2009.PiLNAfrica
Africa has low levels of infrastructure development compared to other regions. As of 2007, it had 3.77 main telephone lines per 100 people but 27.48 mobile subscribers per 100, demonstrating mobile is the dominant form of connectivity. Internet penetration was just 5% of the population, far below the global average. While broadband penetration is over 1% in few countries, most of Africa lacks broadband infrastructure. However, mobile growth has been rapid at around 65% annually, showing connectivity is expanding despite challenges. OER projects can help build demand for infrastructure and provide opportunities to strengthen educational capacity even with constraints.

22.02, Group 5 — Concept of sustainable development in built environmentWDC_Ukraine
This document outlines a future vision for achieving sustainability goals by 2030 in the areas of waste recycling, renewable energy, and energy efficiency. It proposes reaching 80% waste recycling, generating 50% of energy from renewable sources, and improving energy efficiency in industry and homes through various policy, economic, educational, and informational mechanisms. Progress will be measured using indicators like environmental sustainability index, ecological footprint, energy and emissions intensity per GDP.
