Georgina Ustik (TNW) On The Big Spam On The Big Stage

#Tech #Machine Learning #TNW Conference

33:58

In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

Basically, it's an experiment on how far we can twist what a newsletter is supposed to be, and in this talk Georgina will discuss all the horrific things we learned along the way. And also how you, our readers, are our cute, furry, and, probably diseased guinea pigs.

We are all passengers on a spaceship with limited resources: our planet. An astronaut’s journey into space bolsters this realization through ‘the overview effect’ — yet unfortunately we cannot all experience this transformative moment. SpaceBuzz, a brand new concept from ESA astronaut André Kuipers, uses this as a premise to educate the world’s children, creating a generation of earth ambassadors in the process.…

James Beacham (CERN) on Solving the mysteries of time and space | #TNW2019 26:22

Our universe is bizarre. Why is most of the cosmos composed of mysterious dark matter? Why is the Higgs boson so strange? Why do atoms exist? The hottest-and-latest in physics suggests that the biggest puzzles of science could be elegantly solved if our universe were one of a possibly infinite number of universes. But is this a testable scientific idea, or eternally speculative? How do we talk about what's outside our universe? Join Dr. James Beacham, of CERN's Large Hadron Collider, as he explores the edges of knowledge -- including CERN's plans for a colossal Future Circular Collider -- and how the future of science, technology, and innovation will be much wilder than we can imagine.…

James Bridle (Author) on The New Dark Age | #TNW2019 23:09

23:09

Instead of a utopian future in which technological advancement casts a dazzling, emancipatory light on the world, we seem to be entering a new dark age characterised by ever more bizarre and unforeseen events. The Enlightenment ideal of distributing more information ever more widely has not led us to greater understanding and growing peace, but instead seems to be fostering social divisions, distrust, conspiracy theories and post-factual politics. How have we come to this point – and has utopia gone forever?…

If you are creating a work of art in any area of your life, you are not going from a known point A to a known point B but you will invent point B along the way.
