The IBV study recommends that those journeys be delivered through experiential learning. The course material must come to life within organisations through new ways of working, agile teams and hands-on practice served up in the flow of work.

In the next three years, as many as 120 million workers in the world’s 12 largest economies may need to be retrained or reskilled as a result of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and intelligent automation. This is according to the latest IBM Institute for Business Value (IBV) study, titled The Enterprise Guide to Closing the Skills Gap. According to the research, the time it takes to close a skills gap through training has increased by more than 10 times in just four years.

The South Korean Go champion Lee Se-dol has retired from professional play, telling Yonhap news agency that his decision was motivated by the ascendancy of AI. “With the debut of AI in Go games, I’ve realized that I’m not at the top even if I become the number one through frantic efforts,” Lee told Yonhap. “Even if I become the number one, there is an entity that cannot be defeated.”

While he found many positive developments, Huddart argued that social innovation is the Cinderella of an innovation sisterhood that includes business, science, and technology innovation.
The time and energy required for creating something goes through a cycle, one that is seldom as easy or as immediately evident and as clear as I would like to imagine it is. There is an initial framing — an impetus to create something, and a raw idea about how to express it. Then a step into the unknown. Then thinking. Then an expression of that thinking. Then a reflection upon that reflection. More thinking. Then pushing and pulling on pieces here and there. And nothing is quite working, quite yet, quite like I think it should. I get drowsy, looking for any excuse to do something else a lot easier. I question whether anything at all was valuable in the initial idea, or whether the process will really work (though it always has). I feel like I’ve fallen off the end of the some psychological pier, hanging on by a thread, wondering why I ever started down this path to begin with.And somewhere, somehow, at some time, things start to make some sense. A key concept, supported by a set of ideas, starts to solidify. Everything starts to come together. Then there comes a point when I find myself over the crest, starting to coast downhill. I’m filling in the blanks, adding necessary detail, refining the expression until there is cohesion and completion of the work. “Aha!”s happen in and around the material.

Another important step is to break down complex skills into milestones that can be more easily taught and, importantly for academics, measured. For example, to tackle difficult problems, students first need to learn the skills to identify what a meaningful problem is, as well as the technical basics to solve it. At that stage, they can apply their technical knowledge to prototype solutions. Then they’ll need to learn how to work in teams, and how to think about the societal and ethical implications of launching a new technology product into the world, and so on.

Over the past decade, after millions of dollars of investment into coding and STEM education, the number of underrepresented communities in these fields has barely moved. We don’t have time to repeat our mistakes. We need to set much bolder goals and move beyond narrow skill-building. We need our kids today to learn to thrive in a world that may be uncomfortable, nebulous, and full of tomorrow’s hard questions, waiting for their answers.

At the AI for Good Global Summit this past spring, cognitive neuroscientists, educators and social scientists discussed a first step: Setting standards for complex systems-thinking and lifelong learning, the same way many countries have done for coding.

Education boards need a blueprint for a new kind of learning that will equip young people to be comfortable with ambiguity, to be self-aware, to solve problems in complex, stressful situations, to be able to make high-stakes decisions, and finally, to think creatively.

With 2020 just around the corner, educators need a framework for teaching skills like these, but as yet they aren’t a part of most school curricula.

With rapidly improving automation, lifelong learning and continuous reskilling are becoming the norm. The nature of “human work” is also changing, which means the engineers of tomorrow will need to do much more than write code. They will need to do the messy work of navigating uncertainty, solving problems collaboratively, and anticipating the implications of launching a technology product into the world.

Spotify is cracking down on family plan sharing — again. According to a new set of terms and conditions for the plan that the company published back in August, Spotify is now requiring the primary account holder and everyone else on the plan to show proof that they reside at the same address, which it will now confirm from “time to time” by asking users to verify their addresses, as spotted by CNET.
Shouldn't this feature be called "household sharing", then? Why would Spotify define a family by whether they occupy the same rooms on a regular basis?
