Ai revolution for human capital for individuals 2nd feb 2018Liew Wei Da Andrew
The world is crazy about Artificial Intelligence (AI). Whether you are for it or against it – there’s no doubt that AI will change our lives. To educate ourselves about AI, some questions which we should ask are:
Is AI an assistive tool or a substitutive tool?
What are the life hacks for an individual to adapt to this new world?
What are the possibilities for the individuals in the world of AI?
This talk will reveal facts and possibilities about AI to create hope and awareness for the society that we live in. There's no time for ignorance. Have the courage to find out and learn.
THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENTEEIJ journal
Artificial intelligence has been an eye-popping word that is impacting every industry in the world. With the
rise of such advanced technology, there will be always a question regarding its impact on our social life,
environment and economy thus impacting all efforts exerted towards continuous development. From the
definition, the welfare of human beings is the core of continuous development. Continuous development is
useful only when ordinary people’s lives are improved whether in health, education, employment,
environment, equality or justice. Securing decent jobs is a key enabler to promote the components of
continuous development, economic growth, social welfare and environmental sustainability. The human
resources are the precious resource for all nations. The high unemployment and underemployment rates
especially in youth is a great threat affecting the continuous economic development of many countries and
is influenced by investment in education, and quality of living.
This session by the School of Computing, Engineering and Mathematics will look at the career options being unlocked by these changes as well as the courses at Western Sydney University designed to meet this new demand.
The document discusses the history and future of artificial intelligence and cognitive computing, including milestones from the Dartmouth Conference in 1956 to modern systems like Watson, and a vision for the role of cognitive systems in augmenting human intelligence and capabilities by 2035 through tools like cognitive mediators. It also addresses the types and capabilities of different digital cognitive systems, partnerships in AI research, and applications of cognitive computing in areas like education, healthcare and more.

Standardization, centralization, process rigor and labor arbitrage have been the hallmarks of today’s model for managing the Business of IT. IT organizations have used this model to achieve economies of scale and minimize the average total cost of IT. This approach has largely been in place for the past 3 decades that were characterized by large, multi-year IT development projects, a growing base of legacy applications and a gradual evolution of the underlying technology. While providing predictability and efficiency, this model has also served to discourage innovation, reduce business alignment and drives the balkanization of skills within the IT workforce.
In this presentation, I describe an alternative model for managing IT in today's technology intensive organizations.
The document discusses the roles of IS and IT auditors in today's digital economy. It explains that IS and IT auditors provide assurance that IT systems are protected, reliable, and properly managed. The document outlines the types of IT and IS audits performed, such as general control examinations, application system audits, and network security audits. It also discusses how to become an IS or IT auditor, including obtaining relevant education and certifications. Finally, the document predicts that IS and IT auditors will take on more strategic roles in the future as technology continues to drive business.
Professional networking site LinkedIn offers insights with a new study after parsing data from its network of more than 660 million professionals and over 20 million jobs to reveal the 15 most in-demand skills(top 5 soft skills and top 10 hard skills) for 2020.
Though task-oriented skills remain critical for success at work, the data shows that employers are giving equal importance to soft skills that play a critical role.
Emotional Intelligence is the new entry to this year’s top soft skills list.
Among hard skills, LinkedIn blockchain is the new entrant and has made it to the top of the list.
This is indicative of increasing awareness and demand for its wider — and lucrative use — that help securely store and send any digital asset, according to LinkedIn.
The small supply of professionals who have this skill are in high demand, it said.

The Power of Data-driven Learning for Modern CorporatesA S
This document discusses challenges facing organizational learning and development (L&D) functions. It cites data showing that only 23% of CLO respondents agreed their people were growing fast enough to keep up with business needs. Additionally, only 10% of training programs are found to be effective, and less than half of organizations have high-performing L&D functions. The document advocates for creating a "performance ecosystem" to drive execution and innovation through organizational "intellectricity".
The document summarizes key points from a technology webinar on July 17th, 2013. It discusses how companies are consolidating their IT infrastructure and focuses on business intelligence, virtualization and automation, and business continuity. It provides statistics on future IT spending trends and outlines the top 10 tips for businesses, which include reviewing their network needs, keeping data private and secure, optimizing customer contacts, and not implementing technology changes alone without expertise. The overall message is that technology provides opportunities but businesses must review their current and future needs and leverage outside expertise when implementing new solutions.
This session by Risman Adnan will explain scopes and complexities of big data analytic and how to apply agile principles in managing analytic project.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
