#MGT5810 In Davenport and Harris' book Competing on Analytics, they point out that it is difficult to convince employees to be more analytical when they don't see a reason to change. I also think for some people it is due to lack of numeracy: https://t.co/HZIC5uq6Xy

Despite 97% of respondents noting investments in data analytics and AI initiatives, only 1/3 of them claim to have succeeded in shifting to a data-driven culture. #MGT5810

#MGT5810 Perspective on the challenges with open source software. I can share I've shared this perspective in the past but that may have changed. The key is community size and commitment. Python developers for example can find help on any project. Julia or Go, not so much.

#MGT5810 Open source languages and platforms are the engine behind the growth in data science as well as a linchpin of the open science movement. For example, the discovery of gravitational waves was put out by the LIGO project as a Jupyter Notebook. https://t.co/tg5YUaPutq

#MGT5810 Could a more transparent facebook win back lost members?

[VICE News @VICENews]

Facebook says they're making who pays for political ads more transparent.

They aren't. https://t.co/qBtQyGTY5o

#MGT5810 Watson powered operating systems anyone? Is IBM looking to tackle server security with AI?

[Bloomberg Originals @bbgoriginals]

JUST IN: IBM is said to be close to a deal to acquire software maker Red Hat #tictocnews

#MGT5810 Has @OpenAI declared a new type of programming? Instead of coders breaking down problems hackers code through rules based logic, they would break it down into small deep learning trainable steps that would allow reinforcement learning to build complex solutions.

#MGT5810 Facebook woes creates new opportunity for next gen social media leader among younger users.

[Eddy Elfenbein @EddyElfenbein]

44% of Facebook users ages 18-29 have deleted the app from their phones in the past year. https://t.co/QQsW0cqb0I

#MGT5810 @facebook battle with fake news https://t.co/Drp4c1RcJ8 is about to get tougher thanks to deep fakes: https://t.co/2QrznxPOGL This could be a jumping off point for a never ending cycle of digital AI battles.

#MGT5810 Could the sharing economy lead to a radically different economic system? Economic theorist Jeremy Rifkin thinks so.

[sentience @studiosentience]

’The global economy is in crisis. Where do we go from here? In this documentary, social and economic theorist @jeremy_rifkin lays out a road map to usher in a new sharing economy system transforming the way we manage, power and move economic life’ @vice https://t.co/iruIm8jvSS

#MGT5810 Blockchain micro-contracts could be a significant lubricant to the sharing economy by reducing the need for trust and creating digital contracts.

[DataDriven_434C4D0x @434c4d0x]

#MGT5810 The original sharing economy was the sharing of knowledge over the internet such as in this video. Though I remember it as Alta Vista and Yahoo! searches while using ICQ and AOL instant messenger to talk to friends.

[Alvin Foo @alvinfoo]

Do u still remember how it was like to boot up your PC n access the #internet in the 90s?😁

#MGT5810 Charts and Graphs are more than just a way to transfer factual knowledge to your audience. They are a way to visually cue your audience into a narrative story you are sharing with them.

[DataDriven_434C4D0x @434c4d0x]

#MGT5810 Though I agree that PowerPoint presentations are incorrectly used, I think they can have a place when they are nothing but visual cues to enhance the story you are telling. It is especially important if data is being used to tell the story.

[DataDriven_434C4D0x @434c4d0x]

#MGT5810 Presentation making skills are clearly important, but it is the speakers energy that makes a great technical presentation. Work on that to convince the crowd to have confidence in you: https://t.co/fARnV8OYpQ

#MGT5810 Just as MBA programs are rushing to include machine learning into courses now, next year they will be rushing to include deep learning, RNNs, CNNs, etc. into courses next year.

#MGT5810 New tech completely dependent on network effects. Without enough users, this one can't take off. What business strategies will the use to get initial adopters? Can rural customers create a large enough base?

#MGT5810 Can the desire to do good overcome the network effects and switching cost Google has with its search engine? The B-corp Ecosia is an interesting experiment that could answer this question. It is powered by Bing which makes it a even more interesting business study.

#MGT5810 Thinking on “Metcalfe’s Law”. Providing affordable internet to everyone in the world over the next decade will lead to an n-squared increase in the rate of entrepreneurial innovation around the world. How many more of the worlds problems will we be able to solve then?
