Here potentially is some very good news. An alternative energy source, a technology for reversing ocean acidification, and a CO2 sequestration remediation.

This may seem very esoteric but I am publishing it because it is telling us something about how consciousness enters matter at the cellular level. I think what we call life is actually membership in the interconnected, interdependent network of consciousness, from cells to high order mammals. Clearly it is of a different order from physical structures that are expressions of! consciousness, but lack consciousness of the same order as living organisms. In rough terms it is the difference between the log and the tree. What made this story stand out for me was what, after 400 years, made the chemicals that made up the detritus that had once been moss, turn on those chemicals so that consciousness created life.

BAD

More on the corruption of Congress trend in favor of a Non-geographical Corporate State. The corruption has become so blatant that they hardly bother to hide it any more.  There is only one solution to this: Completely replacing the current Congress with ethical people who genuinely care about the nation's wellbeing. Then overturning Citizens' United, and establishing some kind of public funding of elections so that outright bribery is no longer business-as-usual. I confess I am not very sanguine any of this will happen. So far it seems to me that large portions of the country are committed to a kind of societal suicide.

In Europe, at least, Monsanto is beginning to be held accountable. I wonder how many Americans will die before it happens here?

Management de l'intelligence collective

Réseaux sociaux – Technologies 2.0

A l’évocation du mot “intelligence collective”, certains comprennent “perdre le contrôle”, anarchie, désordre,… ; d’autres comprennent innovation, résolution de problème, performance collective, valorisation des intelligences et des expertises pour mieux produire et mieux vendre.

Dans les entreprises, l’intelligence collective n’existe pas. Il faut la créer par la volonté des dirigeants (c’est une décision, une vision, un paradigme et non le constat résigné qu’on fait que cela existe ou que cela n’existe pas). Dire que l’intelligence collective n’existe pas est une vision du monde. Vouloir créer l’intelligence collective et la gérer est une autre vision du monde. Si vous lisez ce blog… vous connaissez la mienne

Mais, peut-on vouloir créer et gérer l’intelligence collective si on a peur de produire du désordre, de l’anarchie ? Depuis 10 ans que je travaille sur le sujet, j’ai toujours considéré que le simple fait de poser cette question était une forme de résistance au changement et que répondre à cette question était une perte de temps. Je pense aujourd’hui que je me suis trompé et, par ce billet, je vais donc réparer mon erreur.

Pour répondre à la question, je vous propose le concept de management paradoxal qui induit l’idée d’une organisation paradoxale. Le terme de  “management paradoxal” m’a été inspiré par Dee Hock, fondateur et ancien CEO de VISA via son livre Birth of the Chaordic Age. “Chaordic” est la contraction de chaos et d’ordre : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaordic.

Voici une carte de l’organisation paradoxale montrant les 8 parties indispensables à la construction d’une entreprise performante :

These 12 technologies will drive our economic future

Neil Irwin

Washington Post, 24 May 2013

As the chart shows, the McKinsey folks believe that the most economically significant technologies over the next decade-plus will be those already well underway in their development — the mobile Internet, largely in place in the adv

Indeed, maybe the single biggest takeaway from the study is this: The things that will have the greatest impact on the economy in the medium term aren’t the ones that seem to most excite the imagination and public interest. Instead, the potentially powerful innovations are mostly those that have been evolving for many years in new ways.

. . . . . . . .

The real economic benefits of innovation, at least over the near term, come not from the flashy, mind-blowing ideas, but from clever combinations of technologies that are just maturing with those that have been around for ages.

Google Implants By 2030?

From Marketplace Tech comes an interesting article on Google Glass and the projections into the future in regards to similar projects. The article, “Google’s Ray Kurzweil on the Computers that will Live in our Brains,” discusses how everything Google puts its hands on is changing how we search, retrieve and interact with information. As in nearly all articles these days discussing Google Glass Ray Kurzweil, the director of engineering at Google, leads the conversation.

Kurzweil posits that we will eventually move beyond devices that simply allow us to look at the world through a keyhole. Instead, he forecasts that people will be online all the time. He projects that devices post-Glass will ultimately be the size of blood cells able to be sent inside the brain and connect to the cloud around the mid-2030’s.

The article tells us more:

“In Kurzweil’s vision, these advances don’t simply bring computers closer to our biological systems. Machines become more like us. ‘Your personality, your skills are contained in information in your neocortex, and it is information,’ Kurzweil says. ‘These technologies will be a million times more powerful in 20 years and we will be able to manipulate the information inside your brain.’ As that data locked up inside our brain becomes searchable, inimitable human qualities suddenly become easier to emulate. Kurzweil denies that the searching and backup up of the brain itself is a bloodless pursuit, depleted of human emotion.”

Artificial intelligence and the melding of biology and machine is increasingly discussed in the media in reference to Google Glass. Will Glass evolve to Google impants? The bigger question is touched upon in this particular article: is it altruistic intentions or advertising that is driving this kind of technology?
