Big Data, We Have a Communication Problem
by Daniel Tunkelang
Presented on April 30, 2013 at the TTI/Vanguard Conference on Ginormous Systems
http://www.ttivanguard.com/conference/2013/ginormous.html
It's a cliché that we live in a world of Big Data. But the bottleneck in understanding data is not computational. Rather, the biggest challenge is designing technical solutions that effectively leverage human cognitive ability. Data analysis systems should augment people's capabilities rather than replace them. This argument is as old as computer science itself: in 1962, Doug Engelbart said that the goal of technology is “the enhancement of human intellect by increasing the capability of a human to approach a complex problem situation.” Algorithms extract signal from raw data, but people fill in the gaps, creating models and evaluating analyses.
Empowering people to understand data is not just a surface problem of building better interfaces and visualizations. We need to interact with data not only after performing computational analysis, but throughout the analysis process in order to improve our models and algorithms. In order to do so, we need tools and processes specifically designed to offer people transparency, guidance, and control.
Human-computer information retrieval has been revolutionizing our approach to information seeking -- no modern search engine limits users to black-box relevance ranking and ten blue links. We need to take similar steps in our analysis of big data, making people the center of the analysis process and developing the technical innovations that enable people to fulfill this role.

Inattention: the brain’s complex relationship with social media by EntefyEntefy
Social media feeds can be a great way to pass the time discovering new information from sources we trust and admire. But repeatedly revisiting those feeds is also perfectly suited to overindulgence because the impulse to “check in” runs on the same mental machinery that drives overindulge in exercise or sweets or coffee.
Then there’s the attention factor. Research suggests that low levels of focus can negatively impact memory formation. There are ways to improve memory retention, which starts with understanding how memories are formed. So what does it take to remember?
Entefy curated a presentation based on our article about the brain’s complex relationship with social media. These slides provide a research-driven perspective on how the human brain adapts (and doesn’t) to the unique characteristics of social media technology.

Konica Minolta - Artificial Intelligence White PaperEyal Benedek
The evolution of artificial intelligence in the workplace
Since the first appearance of the words “artificial intelligence” more than 60 years ago, our imaginations have been sparked. Imagine creating computers that simulate human intelligence.
AI has the potential to profoundly influence our lives, perhaps to the point when our world can be better understood and even predicted. In workplaces we can develop systems through which AI may evolve. And Konica Minolta is progressing with the concept of intelligent hubs which will provide businesses with insight, support and greater collaboration.
By combining our core technologies with transformative solutions in the digital workplace, we’re evolving to become a problem-solving digital company creating new value for people and society.
Describe some effects that cybertechnology has had so far for our se.pdfcalderoncasto9163
Describe some effects that cybertechnology has had so far for our sense of self. Questions to
think about as you write: In the age of information how are we beginning to conceive ourselves
in relation to nature? How is cybertechnology changing the way he view ourselves and others?
Does cybertechnology bring us closer together or create a rift? Are humans becoming more
computer-like? How?
MUST BE AT LEAST 300 WORDS IN TOTAL.
Solution
Information technologies are in a stable level of change and break-through.We can see that
information technologies have brought great social changes compared to the past years before
they appeared.In the past days of disconnect,we plugged into each other\'s nervous system by
passing our books,on discussions with others and by sharing our thoughts and dreams.But
connectedness made one become others databases snd servers learning on eachother\'s
memories.The expanded technology increased the lenghts of people\'s thoughts with this
increasing world.It brought people\'s imaginations and thoughts into existence.
The effects of technology has to do with whether humans desire greater simplicity or complexity
as they progress. Many technology creators acclaim the value of convergence. While that might
severely reduce the number of ‘devices’ that we need and use, it also adds complexity to the task
of using a device.Alternately, people have written about how we desire purity, and will therefore
look for technologies that will do one thing, and do it extremely well. The challenge before
technology innovators, clearly, is to enable technologies to communicate with each other, and
sort problems out, the way humans do.Technology will enable diverse cultures to collaborate
more efficiently, in every sphere. It will bring people and organizations together, closer.
Technology will allow people to live multiple lives, assume and live out multiple
identities.Every day, as millions of people interact over the internet, they navigate worlds that are
simulated, they create virtual personalities, and forge online relationships. Fantasy and role-play,
both natural and important functions of child development, are fostered by adult chatrooms and
virtual reality. In a distributed, yet isolated world, people desire connections. In doing so, they
think not of identity but identity crises.
Technological world is a brilliant opportunity for global connections and it gives the exprience of
leading different lives and cultures.We must believe that internet brings us together as without
internet it is not so easy to communicate with eachother.But on the other hand, it does have some
negative effects on people, tearing them apart in way of face to face communication making such
relations undervalued.
Computers, or operating systems to be exact, are lacking in the the fundamental capabilities
possessed by all sentient systems: the ability to reason, to learn from observation and experience,
to grow intelectually over time. As of today, computers .
In this session, we talk about the mobile and social web, and how it shapes economy, individual behavior and well-being, political events, and society as a whole.
Zombies or Cyborgs: is Facebook Eating Your Brain?guestcf1e8d8
While some present the dawn of the social web as a doomsday, we believe that social media technologies represent a secondary revolution to that described above by cyborg cognition theorist Andy Clark. Trapped within this debate lies the brain; recent advances in the neurosciences have thrown open our concept of the brain, revealing a neural substrate that is highly flexible and plastic (Green and Bavelier 2008). This phenomenal level of plasticity likely underpins much of what separates us from the animal kingdom, through a profound enhancement of our ability to use new technologies and their cultural co-products (Clark and Chalmers 1998; Schoenemann, et al. 2005; Shaw, et al. 2006). Yet many fear that this plasticity represents a precise threat to our cognitive stability in light of the technological invasion of Twitter-like websites. By investigating how the brain changes as we undergo profound self alteration via digital meditation, we can begin to unravel the biological mysteries of plasticity that underpin a vast array of issues in the humanities and social sciences.
Zombies or Cyborgs: Is Facebook Eating Your Brain?Micah Allen
In this talk, I review recent findings in neuroplasticity as well as basic methods for measuring functional and structural plasticity in the human brain. I apply insights from these findings to debate concerning the neurocognitive impact of our rising uses of social media networks. This talk reviews my ongoing empirical research in this area and ultimately suggest that we can reject the 'zombies' in favor of the adaptive social cyborg view of mind.

Beyond Buzz - Web 2.0 Expo - K.Niederhoffer & M.Smithkategn
A framework to measure a conversation based on approaches from social psychology and sociology. Beyond quantity of buzz, we propose measuring the context of conversation: the signal, person, role, and ecosystem.
In the last decade, workplaces have started to evolve towards digitalisation. In the future people will work in digitally connected environments where personalisation is enabled, collaboration is improved and data sharing and information management are automated. Ultimately, these future workplaces will provide context-aware artificial intelligence (AI) and decision support that leverage both localised information and broader community knowledge whenever needed.

The Language of Internet Memes
Pat r i c k D av i s o n
In The Future of the Internet—and How to Stop It, Jonathan Zittrain
describes the features of a generative network. A generative network encour-
ages and enables creative production and, as a system, possesses leverage,
adaptability, ease of mastery, accessibility, and transferability.1 Notably absent
from this list of characteristics, however, is security. Many of the character-
istics that make a system generative are precisely the same ones that leave it
vulnerable to exploitation. This zero-sum game between creativity and secu-
rity implies a divided Internet. Those platforms and communities which value
security over creativity can be thought of as the “restricted web,” while those
that remain generative in the face of other concerns are the “unrestricted web.”
The restricted web has its poster children. Facebook and other social net-
working sites are growing at incredible speeds. Google and its ever-expand-
ing corral of applications are slowly assimilating solutions to all our com-
puting needs. Amazon and similar search-based commerce sites are creating
previously unimagined economies.2 Metaphorically, these sites, and count-
less others, make up the cities and public works of the restricted web. How-
ever, the unrestricted web remains the wilderness all around them, and it is
this wilderness that is the native habitat of Internet memes.
The purpose of this essay is twofold. The first is to contribute to a frame-
work for discussing so-called Internet memes. Internet memes are popular
and recognizable but lack a rigorous descriptive vocabulary. I provide a few
terms to aid in their discussion. The second purpose is to consider Foucault’s
“author function” relative to Internet memes, many of which are created and
spread anonymously.
What Is an Internet Meme?
In 1979 Richard Dawkins published The Selfish Gene, in which he discredits
the idea that living beings are genetically compelled to behave in ways that
are “good for the species.” Dawkins accomplishes this by making one point
The Language of Internet Memes | 121
clear: the basic units of genetics are not species, families, or even individuals
but rather single genes—unique strands of DNA.3
At the end of the book, Dawkins discusses two areas where evolutionary
theory might be heading next. It is here that he coins the term “meme.” He
acknowledges that much of human behavior comes not from genes but from
culture. He proposes that any nongenetic behavior be labeled as a meme and
then poses a question: can the application of genetic logic to memes be pro-
ductive? To make the differences between genes and memes clear, I offer a
short example of each.
Genes determine an organism’s physical characteristics. A certain gene
causes an organism to have short legs, or long, for instance. Imagine two
zebra. The first has the short-leg gene, and the second the long. A lion attacks
them. The shor ...

CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites
