  1. #DigitalUnderstanding 💭 Many political #decisionmakers see #digitalisation primarily as a #technical issue rather than a #transformation.

    Too Much #Strategy 🚧 In #politicalprojects, endless #strategypapers are produced, while practical #implementation falls by the wayside.

    #Fear of #Change ⚠️ #Digitalisation means #deeptransformation and #lossofcontrol, which is why political institutions are often reluctant to take bold steps.

  2. CW: Can #AI Models Reason? Is Data All You Need? (QUOTE)

    "We just don’t know whether the current data-hungry approach will be enough—or whether we’ll need to learn another #bitter lesson."

    The Tech way would be very lop-sided and in-human, and I think we're seeing that with tons of people doing Tech while leaving humanity without proper human interaction and communication developed.

    Isn't it a wonder how much money goes into other things more than caring / developing people or to really listening to problems. Sure it's not profitable and that's why unhappiness continues [as a result of profit].
    You could see profit as inverted measure of damage to nature and it's people (directly or indirectly as #habitat / #urban #environment / #climate or again lop-sided human #development... for more profit and less happiness).

    More #emotionally #intelligent #decisionmakers are needed for the way so it's WITH others going forward to understand better and make better decisions (in their own life / company and externally with others). So many projects fall apart for example due to #emotional issues in groups...

    Tech is abusing and also taking advantage of these kinds of default "idiots" (untrained but clever people in a few compartmentalized fields or #specialists) and less emotionally intelligent people are not excluded from lesser human intelligence overall). Yes it could be you doing A LOT of one thing and never the other...

    [MY ADDED COMMENT]
    ================

    Tech is political if money, the people behind it and profit are a measurement.
    "No wonder" how much money goes into #STEM more than caring about people / listening to problems at the same time. It's proportional profit to not caring / developing better people / principles, as Tech can skip and cut that out to serve owners agenda.
    Doesn't help that #jobs help #compartmentalise everything to whatever trigger chain it wants to make, and anyone in a job shrugs to say "it's not my business" to care for the rest of the people / life.

    =======
    SUMMARY: I think it is our "job" to care even if #states don't pay for it...
    =======

    Can expect any $tate looking for it's own money to really care or take less money from people as time goes on (instead of more using banks (negative #maths), #STEM, etc..)

    Comments appreciated.

  4. Seven simple questions for #DecisionMakers:

    1️⃣ How big? How much? How many?
    2️⃣ Compared to what?
    3️⃣ Why not a rate?
    4️⃣ Per what? The diabolical denominator.
    5️⃣ How were things defined, counted or measured?
    6️⃣ What was taken into account (what was controlled for)?
    7️⃣ What else should have been taken into account (controlled for)?
