tv2 before october 2's breaking news as summarised by the best news from united nations at 75 - tech's 60 year learning curve since the 1960s shows new engineers have mattered moore than old lawyers for any place where all peoples lives matter- be that the top or the bottom person in the place= the force of nature waves worldwide stronger than the force of man and engines- americans like deming and borlaug discovered this; as reported at the economist of 1962: japan was the first country to decide this would matter to the two thirds of humans who are asians- quite why the west did not value new engineering requires rewinding how historians and educators inform next generations without political fear or favor- my guess is: if kennedy had not been assassinated he would have trusted youth to earth races after the successful moon race starting with america's own need to love all skin colors but maybe my celtic optimism is biassing that
whats clear from unga75 -if we value 60 action learning networks of engineering resilient communities - start at alumni of poveryuni connectors here; or join the un and geneva's urgent mediation of AI artificial intel - one guide starts below - it explores how years 1-4 hane blossomed around the faculty of #aiforgood moderated by the association of owners of 5g infrastucures aka itu
tv3 something changed in the 2010s: the deep data all societies needed to be sustainable converged in borderless ways: the universality of smart mobile phones was only one of 20 devices with the latent brainpower of a human and the planet-deep connectivity of nature herself all this beamed up to clouds which became real time operational platforms impacting to be or not to be
- what this change needs to mean? youth leaving school between 2015 and 2030 need to share diversity's access to new engineers if the human race is to survive -zoom me up scottie- science fiction no longer exists - any specific goal that can be imagined - for better or worse - is now possible
-all old people need is enough love of the younger half of the world to you assign graduates the goal and empower evolutionary fit societal devices to analyse true societal data ahead of time- we invite you to linkin 13 month countdown to the 260th annual review of humans machine- glasgowuni cop26 - will you zoom with us back from the future of the sdgs and #aiforgood

mv4 Zhi Zhen Qin, Senior Technical Officer at the United Nations Office for Project Services, Qin highlights the usefulness of real-time data tracking. “We see countries adapting their national strategy with data that they are updating every day,” she says.The power of AI has a role to play in predicting the prognosis of COVID-19 and to detect other infectious diseases — not to mention, chest X-rays and CT scans from hospitals around the world, said Qin.“Big data has been a tremendous help to public health – there is a lot of big data analysis,” says Qin, adding that without big data it is not possible to model disease activity, predict potential growth, perform strategic analyses, or measure population impact.Qin is sure that the healthcare industry will see big changes in the future, not just for COVID-19, but also for other diseases and healthcare in general. The healthcare industry, she says, “has been compelled to adopt digital technology.” update sept2020 unga75 see xprize and itu slack -pitching how ai can mitigate pandemics
mp4 Sasha Cahill, Advisor at IBM Cloud Hyper Protect Accelerator.Cahill shared insights specific to technology for healthcare.“In the United States, physician time is limited to 10-15 mins per patient. If the technology is too complex to use, then both physician and patient will be frustrated,” says Cahill. “How can we as entrepreneurs create new delivery models which can be monetized?”“Patients are concerned,” she says, “and they will likely want care in a place where they are most comfortable – and that is going to be their home setting.”I want to challenge entrepreneurs to think about those impacts, and how we can think about models that are scalable,” said Cahill.
