According to UNESCO, Cuba is the only country in Latin America and the Caribbean to achieve all the measurable objectives of education. This is the conclusion the Global Monitoring Report on Education for All in 2015, UNESCO (UNESCO). The document is based on the framework of action proposed in 2000 at the World Education Forum in Dakar when governments from 164 countries committed themselves to goals as early childhood care, universal primary education, adult literacy and parity and gender equality. Only half of the countries in the world and Latin America achieved the goal of universal access to primary education. In Cuba, it is noble to be a teacher. In Cuba teachers are valued unlike Brazil. Cuban teachers earn salaries similar to those of doctors. It should be noted that Cuba is also a place where those who have good grades will have access to education regardless of origin or family income. But how do the comparison of Cuba with other countries if it does not have international indicators? Today, it is not possible to know whether a university in Cuba is better or worse than a Brazilian institution, the US or even China because Cuba does not participate in international databases and not of university rankings.

How Data Science is Preventing College Dropouts and Advancing Student SuccessVMware Tanzu
Educational institutions have a wealth of information, which can be brought together in an institutional data lake to predict and influence student behavior. In this webinar, one of Pivotal's principal data scientists discusses a recent collaborative project with a top university, in which many data sources were used to build a 360-degree profile of student activity on campus and help predict student success. Learn about the data science pipelines that Pivotal developed and how they are now being used to predict student metrics (such as GPA, course grade and time to graduate), and even as intervention tools to help prevent students from dropping out.

“Open Innovation & Technological Singularity”
Solomon: Welcome to “Open Innovation & Technological Singularity” Panel. This is a discussion as to where the business models are headed. This is going to be more like a fireside chat than a panel.
Joining me is Dr. Jim Spohrer; he is the Director of IBM Global University Programs and Cognitive Systems Institute at IBM. He is a graduate of MIT in Physics; earned his PhD in computer science from Yale University and has many patents to his name. Prior to IBM his served as a distinguished Computer Engineer at Apple.
A good part of Jim’s Job’s is to capture the external knowledge flows that is being generate at universities around the world. IBM works with over 5000 universities worldwide where knowledge is being exponentially created. I heard Jim say many a time “The future is here and it is at the universities”
Jim, welcome! as you know, business models are increasing coming under stress – In my opinion, the Business Models having to do five things: 1. Save Time, 2. Eliminate Costs, 3. Deliver Value in Context, 4. Offer Value at Price points that people can afford and 5. Adapt to the changes while managing innovation.
Let us discuss this one at a time:
1. Solomon: Save Time: (for the individual customer as well as the entire ecosystem – wasting one person’s time has a domino effect on the entire ecosystem)
Jim: It has long been known in systems theory that the biggest gains come from improving the weakest links. What we are seeing with cognitive is a new kind of resource for people - a resource with the potential to help improve weakest link. (Any slides?)
Solomon: Can you provide some examples about improving the weakest link?
2. Solomon: Eliminate Costs to create a Minimum Viable Ecosystem (for the individual customer but also from the entire ecosystem all together) As you know, my students are developing Business Models for Future Cities or Smart Cities. A city unlike a firm has more complex ecosystem surrounding them.
Jim: Cognitive is on an exponential - anytime cost reductions are on exponential - big things can happen. (See imagine of Lake Michigan filling up)
3. Solomon: Deliver value in context of the customer’s specific need in real time – when - where - how - format and context matters!
Jim: cognitive will know us better than we know ourselves (in some ways) by 2035. This knowledge of us is necessary for good "executive assistants" and "personal coaches" (any slide here?)
4. Solomon: Offer value at price points that the customers can afford – this is critical as 6 billion poor people in the world are left out of the equation – models that create value only for the 1.5 billion rich people will soon fall apart.
Jim: again exponential cost reduction is a pretty good driver of value. (Any slide here?)
Solomon: Adaptable to changes as they happen in real time while managing innovation.
Jim: Big data growth is reshaping the environment people, businesses, and governments operate in -- smarter planet
Big data is beyond what people can handle without powerful cognitive tools. (Any slides here?) – I have a suggestion.

(0) 2015 - about 9 months to build a formative Q&A system - 40% accuracy;
- another 1-2 years and a team of 10-20, can get it to 90% accuracy, by reducing the scope ("sorry that question is out of scope")
- today's systems can only answer questions, if the answers are already existing in the text explicitly
- debater is an example of where we would like to get to though in 5 years: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7g59PJxbGhY
- more about the ambitions at http://cognitive-science.info
(1) 2025: Watson will be able to rapidly ingest just about any textbooks and produce a Q&A system
- the Q&A system will rival C-grade (average) student performance on questions
(2) 2035 - above, but rivals C-level (average) faculty performance on questions
(3) 2035 - an exascale of compute power costs about $1000
- an exascale is the equivalent compute of one person's brain power (at 20W power)
(4) 2035 - nearly everyone has a cognitive mediator that knows them in many ways better than they know themselves
- memory of all health information, memory of everyone you have ever interacted with, executive assistant, personal coach, process and memory aid, etc.
(5) 2055 - nearly everyone has 100 cognitive assistants that "work for them"
- better management of your cognitive assistant workforce is a course taught at university
By 2036, there will be an accumulation of knowledge as well as a distribution of knowledge in service systems globally. We need to ensure as there is knowledge accumulation that service systems at all scale become more resilient. Leading to the capability of rapid rebuilding of service systems across scales, by T-shaped people who understand how to rapidly rebuild – knowledge has been chunked, modularized, and put into networks that support rapid rebuilding.
The weakest link is what needs to be improved – according to system scientists. Accessing help, service, experts is the weakest link in most systems.
By 2035 the phone may have the power of one human brain – by 2055 the phone may have the power of all human brains.
Before trying to answer the question about which types of sciences are more important – the ones that try to explain the external world or the ones that try to explain the internal world – consider this, slide that shows the different telephones that I have used in my life. I grew up in rural Maine, where we had a party line telephone because we were somewhat remote on our farm in Newburgh, Maine.
However, over the years phones got much better…. So in 2035 or 2055, who are you going to call when you need help?

If Moore’s Law continues, by 2035 and by 2055, we are projected to have unimaginably large amounts of cheap computing…. 2035 one human brain level, and by 2055 all human brains level(10 billion people).
Based on Kurweil’s graph of how much compute power $1000 will buy, it seems that by 2030, for $1000 you should be able to buy the compute power of one person’s brain, and that by 2060 for $1000 you should be able to buy the computer power of 10***10, or 10B people, the compute power of the world’s population for $1000.
