Rest in peace

You know that its the age of AI, the tech world is busy incorporating it in each and every department to be in the trend and feel relevant to the standards set by the trend setters. It has even become a part of policy making by the governments around the world that they have started to own their own AI scheme individual to the respective governments.

 

We may not look into advantages or disadvantages of rampant appropriation of AI which has always been demonized by the visual art predicting the start of destruction of humanity self imposed by the human beings. Its pretty uncharted territory no one knows how this can reel off.

Artificial intelligence commonly known for mimic has upgraded in the fields of cloning and the it is physically applied in the field of voice cloning. Cloning isn't new to the human quest for scientific advancement. Humans have cloned life forms before the dawn of AI and there have been several rules set up for ethical cloning.

 With AI incorporated in every scientific field it would be childish to assume that field of cloning will remain pariah when it comes to making use of AI to fast forward their progress. The only question remains what kind of bonding persists between subject of clone and its AI clone? Is it the era of artificial bonding? I mean cloning of bonding.

Be like a reading glass

There was a small social experiment wherein a message was made to travel amongst a small group of people. That is a message was conveyed from a source through a finite number of mediators before it reaches to the destination. The outcome was astonishing that source message was completely altered by mediators in between before it reached the destination.

 The latest level of distortion was to clip the information into pieces and pick that cropped clip which conveys completely different meaning to be precise a opposite meaning when compared to original block of information. This unethical cropped information in made to cater to popularization of the propaganda.

It is difficult to reign in on these manipulations through any law as they are logically correct but ethically debatable and there is no rule that can punish unethical practices especially when these manipulations are incentivized by those people decorating highest offices in any organization.

 

Worst thing is to give wings to these manipulations by the general state actors knowing the harmfulness of such synthetic modifications. And this practice has a universal backing and also a part of the strategic decision making by the authoritarians. Only thing those who are against such practices can do is to withdraw from the loop that encourages the manipulations.

Need for institutionalisation of digital sovereignity

Data sovereignty and technological sovereignty are the two pillars of digital sovereignty, which can be defined as the degree of control an organization has over its entire digital environment, including data, applications, software, systems, and hardware. Which is aligned to the WEF definition “the ability to have control over your own digital destiny – the data, hardware and software that you rely on and create.”

 A closer examination reveals that cybersecurity is at the heart of data sovereignty and helps enhance technological sovereignty.

It’s important that organizations understand that digital sovereignty is not an “all or nothing” proposition. Digital sovereignty exists in varying degrees on a scale which is constantly in flux.

Governments and organizations advocating for digital sovereignty need to adopt a risk-based approach. They must carefully assess their level of control over data and technology, and take great care to ensure that sovereignty does not come at the cost of agility — a key factor to thriving in the Digital Age.

But instead of institutionalizing digital sovereignty governments across the world are busy institutionalizing artificial intelligence which needs wider ratification from all stakeholders instead becoming a trend amongst wealthy and mighty.

We all love experiments

If you are a generation who have crossed college life, you should have come across idea of laboratory and experiments. Laboratory and experiments connects us with the practical visualization of theoretical learning. Visualization of theoretical knowledge adds more eagerness to our learning.

 

 

Experiments are all around us and is not limited to academic field. There is experimentation in the field of life science, in business, in agriculture and not the last but in politics too. One of the most basic requirement of putting our hands in experimentation is that we should be well prepared with the unexpected outcomes, be it progressive or regressive.

And Indian diaspora is on verge of undergoing a vital experiment and this time they want to give a chance to a psychopathic leadership. Not sure under what compulsion they have stuck themselves to become a partner in crime. Be sure that India has seen many psychopaths since the dawn of its civilized settlement and have over ridden them safeguarding their faith from getting polluted by the psychopathic thought process.

 On one side I am dumb struck with the risk they have involved themselves to sway against the tide of synchronized and to prove the universe wrong. On the other side I can only wish them best of luck in their endeavor and pray that they never stop future experimenting on a regressive outcome of the present one. 

Happy experimenting.

When life gives you lemon....

I had my primary and high schooling at a christian missionary school. And much of my English knowledge I owe this to my school. It was a cosmopolitan experience. I enjoyed each and every moment, those teachers and friends were just enriching experience. There was never a dull scenario.

The specialty of my schooling was I never felt that I was schooled. There was never a need wherein my parents had to have personal talk to the teachers regarding my studies or conduct in the classroom. And ten years just passed like a bullet train journey with a sense of comfort.

You might be wondering what was the need to relive the school days. My take about the aspect is that we are all made to rerun. I mean we are made to believe that we living at someone's mercy. The air we breathe, the sunlight we receive, the rain that fills our ponds and the memories that enrich our hearts. We are expected to infer that we are indeed living each and every milli-second stealing life out of our living. And that is a worst form of making a living worse than that of a beggar who owes nothing to anyone.

Without going into details of who was responsible to drive us into such a situation, our focus should be how to insulate our future generation from getting entrapped. I don't mean that we should hide the reality from them but hide them from reality.

Save the Mist

 Its summer at its peak and literally venturing out in mid-noon on empty roads is like get fried on a heated pan. Usually this type of roasting was expected to be offset by shallow rain but even that is missing during this summer.

 A dry spell often seen as evaporated weather gets compared with state of difficulty and displeasure. A drizzle resulting in conversion of dryness to wetness brings a sense of satisfaction and invokes patience rekindling hope of sublime emotions.

Dryness and wetness not only related to external weather but also internal sustenance. As and when we move away from kindness and humanity you can expect a dry spell with the hearts literally punishing it for your vague thoughts. Problem with internal dryness when compared to external dryness is that there is no need to convince anyone for forgone external dryness as it is quite natural wherein it becomes duty of nature to bring in the wetness to quench the thirst of the dried.

 

But internal dryness is heavily engulfed by the thoughts which acted as convincing particulars to embrace and feel internally dried. And to bring back that wetness into the hearts is mountainous task. Its our duty to fight the dryness and save that mist within the heart irrespective of who and how many stand against it.

Work under supervision

When you try to differentiate between process followed by well established companies that believe in self governance and those lala companies that believe in micromanagement. You can sense the difference based on the mentality developed by the workers serving in the respective types.

The organization that believe in self governance don't spend much of the time on supervising the employees and believes in liberal environment wherein the employees are self sustained towards contributing to the goal of the organization. Real problem that arises is when a person used to lala type of company gets a chance to be a part of self governed company.

 That's exactly what is happening in the country, citizens who mostly consisted of labor class were used to lala type of governance who instead of adhering to constitutional liberty feared mostly of application of force by the police department bred within them since British era. 

Scenario has changed world wide with progress of nations that believed in self rule for citizens and hence their governments who are mere voice of the esteemed citizens rather than acting as lordships.

A community that mostly budges to constitution fearing the repercussions it may need to face by the law enforcement agencies rather than understanding its marvel. Once any learnt identifies this weakness, the very reason empowers him to use force as tool of administration. The people who are believers of self rule sees this as the authoritarian rule whereas the problem lies in its citizens who feel treatment meted out to them justified.
