It has been researched and compiled by lead author Nidhi Tandon, assisted by Shannon Pritchard, with editorial inputs by teams from UN Women, UNDP and ITU. Design concepts were developed by Céline Desthomas of ITU. We wish to thank the following people for their contributions and kind review and comments (listed in alphabetical order of institution, followed by alphabetical order of surname): Dafne Sabanes Plou, Jac sm Kee and Chat Garcia Ramilo (APC); Dr Nancy Hafkin; Minerva Novero- Belec (UNDP); Corat Suniye Gulser (UNESCO); Jennifer Breslin and team (UN Women); Samia Melhem and team (World Bank). About the Commission The Broadband Commission for Digital Development was launched by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in response to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s call to step up efforts to meet the Millennium Development Goals. Established in May 2010, the Commission unites top industry executives with government leaders, thought leaders and policy pioneers and international agencies and organizations concerned with development. The Broadband Commission embraces a range of different perspectives in a multi-stakeholder approach to promoting the roll-out of broadband, as well as providing a fresh approach to UN and business engagement.

    Real-time Learning and Inference on Emerging Mobile Systems Vikas Sindhwani Google May 17-19, 2016 2016 Summer School on Signal Processing and Machine Learning for Big Data Abstract: We are motivated by the challenge of enabling real-time "always-on" machine learning applications on emerging mobile platforms such as next-generation smartphones, wearable computers and consumer robotics systems. On-device models in such settings need to be highly compact, and need to support fast, low-power inference on specialized hardware. I will consider the problem of building small-footprint non- linear models based on kernel methods and deep learning techniques, for on-device deployments. Towards this end, I will give an overview of various techniques, and introduce new notions of parsimony rooted in the theory of structured matrices. Such structured matrices can be used to recycle Gaussian random vectors in order to build randomized feature maps in sub-linear time for approximating various kernel functions. In the deep learning context, low-displacement structured parameter matrices admit fast function and gradient evaluation. I will discuss how such compact nonlinear transforms span a rich range of parameter sharing configurations whose statistical modeling capacity can be explicitly tuned along a continuum from structured to unstructured. I will present empirical results on mobile speech recognition problems, and image classification tasks. I will also briefly present some basics of TensorFlow: a open-source library for numerical computations on data flow graphs. Tensorflow enables large-scale distributed training of complex machine learning models, and their rapid deployment on mobile devices. Bio: Vikas Sindhwani is Research Scientist in the Google Brain team in New York City.

    Transcript of the Highlights of Elon Musk's

    Powered by What do electric cars have in common with life on Mars? One man — Elon Musk. This multitalented inventor founded SpaceX, a company that develops and manufactures space vehicles, and Tesla Motors, which produces 100% electricity-powered luxury roadsters. How does one person balance diverse interests and manage successful endeavors in space technology, sustainable energy and the Internet? From his early days teaching himself to program computers, learn how Elon Musk has worked to improve the quality of life for everyone through technology. Powered by Elon Musk - www.OnInnovation.com In Thomas Edison’s Menlo Park complex, the machine shop served as a bridge between two worlds. One was a world of practicality — advancing the creation of Edison’s most commercially successful inventions. The other, a world of experimentation — exploring what was possible. A similar integration of experiment and practicality exists in Hawthorne, California, at a company known as SpaceX. Its business is developing rockets that place commercial satellites in orbit. But SpaceX has broader ambitions: creating technologically astounding rockets that, at some point in the future, could carry manned missions to Mars. At the helm of SpaceX is, an individual who came to prominence in the creation of PayPal . who is Chairman and CEO of the electric sports car manufacturer Tesla Motors . and who has a passion for doing things others only dream about. Bottom:The second floor of Thomas Edison’s Menlo Park Laboratory (lower right) in Greenfield Village served as the center of the experimental process. New ideas and solutions were developed and tested here. Edison inventions and patent models (left) were displayed in the laboratory as a reminder of Edison’s ingenuity.

Magicians of the Twenty-first Century: Enchantment, Domination, and the Politics of Work in Silicon Valley Emily K. Crandall, Rachel H. Brown, John McMahon Abstract What is the political theorist to make of self-characterizations of Silicon Valley as the beacon of civilization-saving innovation? Through an analysis of “tech bro” masculinity and the closely related discourses of tech icons Elon Musk and Peter Thiel, we argue that undergirding Silicon Valley’s technological utopia is an exploitative work ethic revamped for the industry's innovative ethos. On the one hand, Silicon Valley hypothetically offers a creative response to what Max Weber describes as the disenchantment of the modern world. Simultaneously, it depoliticizes the actual work necessary for these dreams to be realized, mystifying its modes of domination.

If I were to guess at what our biggest existential threat is, it’s probably that. With artificial intelligence, we are summoning the demon." Elon Musk, CEO, Tesla Motors & SpaceX ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE STUDY: AI TODAY, AI TOMORROW We are following up on our last message about a proposed National Study on Artificial Intelligence. We very much appreciate the responses and encouragement we have received, and welcome input and questions from any League and/or its members on this subject. http://mailchi.mp/35a449e1979f/the-time-for-a-national-study-on-ai-is-now?e=[UNIQID][12/20/2017 6:29:08 PM] The Time For a National Study On AI is NOW We believe that the pace of development of AI and the implications of its advancement make this an extremely timely subject. AI is becoming an important part of our society - from medical uses to transportation to banking to national defense. Putting off this study will put us behind in the progress being made in AI. We again request that your League consider supporting this study at your program planning meeting. The reason to propose this study now is because there are currently no positions that address many of the issues that fall under the umbrella of this relatively new and powerful technology. For several years now private groups and even countries (like Russia, China and Korea) have made it a priority to develop mechanical brains/computers that can function intelligently http://mailchi.mp/35a449e1979f/the-time-for-a-national-study-on-ai-is-now?e=[UNIQID][12/20/2017 6:29:08 PM] The Time For a National Study On AI is NOW and command robots or other machines to perform some task.

Department of Energy |January 2021 [ This page is intentionally left blank] Effect of Hyperloop Technologies on Electric Grid and Transportation Energy | Page i Department of Energy |January 2021 Executive Summary Hyperloop technology, initially proposed in 2013 as an innovative means for intermediate- range or intercity travel, is now being developed by several companies. Proponents point to potential benefits for both passenger travel and freight transport, including time-savings, convenience, quality of service and, in some cases, increased energy efficiency. Because the system is powered by electricity, its interface with the grid may require strategies that include energy storage. The added infrastructure, in some cases, may present opportunities for grid- wide system benefits from integrating hyperloop systems with variable energy resources.
