Explore the website <https://digitalprinciples.org/> *USAID Guide: How to Use Machine Learning in International Development* Emerging machine learning and artificial intelligence applications promise to reshape healthcare, agriculture, and democracy in the developing world, and show tremendous potential for helping to achieve sustainable development objectives globally. At the same time, the very nature of these tools — their ability to codify and reproduce patterns they detect — introduces significant concerns alongside promise. - In developed countries, machine learning tools have sometimes been found to automate racial profiling, to foster surveillance, and to perpetuate racial stereotypes. - Algorithms may be used, either intentionally or unintentionally, in ways that result in disparate or unfair outcomes between minority and majority populations. - Complex models can make it difficult to establish accountability or seek redress when models make mistakes. These shortcomings are not restricted to developed countries. They can manifest in any setting, especially in places with histories of ethnic conflict or inequality. As the development community adopts tools enabled by machine learning and artificial intelligence, we need a clear- eyed understanding of how to ensure their application is effective, inclusive, and fair. The USAID Guide to Making Artificial Intelligence Work for International Development aims to inform and empower practitioners as they navigate an emerging machine learning and artificial intelligence landscape in developing countries.

As Xi laid out his plans for the party’s future over nearly three and a half hours, he named artificial intelligence, big data, and the internet as core technologies that would help transform China into an advanced industrial economy in the coming decades. It was the first time many of these technologies had explicitly come up in a president’s speech at the Communist Party Congress, a once-in-five-years event. In the decisive span of a few months, the Chinese government had given its citizens a new vision of the future, and made clear that it would be coming fast.

Specifically, today robotic process automation (RPA) is the technology of choice to streamline business operations and reduce costs. But how do you judge whether your RPA initiative is successful? It’s not just whether the first “go live” instance does well. It’s about building momentum with strategically selected RPA projects so you continuously automate more and more complex business processes, and achieve a sustainable—and ever-increasing—ROI. To realize this kind of success, you should follow the below mentioned 8 critical best practices that leading companies have learned from their RPA deployments.

Arguing that solving contemporary business problems requires new organizational principles, models, and dynamics, Whitehurst explains how leaders everywhere can begin rethinking how they utilize data, approach failure, structure teams, and set goals—in short, how they can become more innovative. Compiled three years after the publication of his widely read management book, The Open Organization (Harvard Business Review Press), Organize for Innovation, collects Whitehurst's writing on organizational culture, organizational design, and organizational leadership today—all part of an ongoing conversation about the challenges we face in transformative, fast-moving, and uncertain times.

The practice was implemented year-round in 1942, during WWII. Not waking up in the dark, the thinking went, would decrease fuel use for lighting and heating - and help conserve energy supplies to win the war. Nearly 100 years later, though, the US is a divided nation on this topic. For example, a 2012 survey of 1,000 American adults by Rasmussen Reports found that 45% of American adults think daylight-saving is worth it, while more than 40% say it's worthless. Advocacy groups like Standardtime.com are trying to abolish daylight-saving time altogether. Energy-saving claims are "unproven," they write: "If we are saving energy, let's go year-round with daylight-saving time. If we are not saving energy, let's drop daylight-saving time!" More than 127,000 people have petitioned Congress to end daylight-saving time. Many of the comments on the petition are biting. "Daylight saving time is an antiquated practice and serves no purpose in the modern world," wrote Dustin M. from Kings Mountain, North Carolina. "It causes undo stress to millions of Americans and does nothing for anyone."

The cyberworld in which we spend our days — and on which our lives depend — is not safe, and is becoming more dangerous all the time. From nation-states trying to sway elections with fake news to ransomware that shuts down hospitals, we are living in a “Wild West” in which any data, or any transaction, may be attacked at any time. And like travelers in a lawless frontier, we are left to scan the horizon constantly for trouble, scrambling to plug the leaks in defenses we don’t quite trust. We are vulnerable not just because of the increasing sophistication of hackers, who are today as likely to be well-funded criminal organizations or governments as petty thieves or amateurs out for the thrill of defacing a Web site. Nor is the greatest threat the development of new offensive tools such as quantum computers, which might soon be powerful enough to crack today’s most widely used cryptographic ciphers. The biggest problem is that our basic approach to cyber security is flawed.

"Everybody laughs," says Groussin, a microbiologist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge. "Especially when we stress that we need the whole fecal sample and show them the big bowl." He's asking on behalf of the Global Microbiome Conservancy (GMC), an effort to identify and preserve gut bacteria from different peoples around the world. Most microbiome research has focused on Western, urban populations, which typically eat processed foods and use antibiotics. The few studies of traditional peoples have found a far more diverse gut microbiome that appears to be linked to the absence of certain diseases.

Feedback request on Bound Volumes: How to make them relevant and put them use.
by ishappa.bandi＠pilani.bits-pilani.ac.in 04 Nov '18

04 Nov '18

I've invited you to fill out the following form: Bound Volumes: How to make them relevant and put them use. To fill it out, visit: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfpSy6DfO6p9DOXMx6yVXSKPRV9pbkkZZQ… Dear Madam/Sir, Greetings!! Please give your feedback on Bound Volumes usage in your Library. Many libraries in the world are facing usage crunch of their Bound Volumes. It is very difficult for academic libraries including University Libraries to manage the Bound Volume section and make them use by their research community. Two decades ago Bound Volumes were known as Perl of any library collection and they were a direct impact on the research output of any organization. Now they have become just a dust accumulator and are in a very bad condition in many libraries. It is the duty of Library professionals to revisit and make their Bound Volume collection relevant to their user community. This Questionnaire is to get insight from various library professionals and discuss their best practices with others so that the Bound Volume section should not become a mere collection in any libraries in the world. I request all the Library professionals to give their feedback, it will take hardly 15 minutes of your time and the outcome will be shared to you all. Thank you, With regards Google Forms: Create and analyze surveys. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
