Addressing knowledge loss at the UK's average rate of staff turnover (around 20% a year, including managers) means that an organizations' bank of remembered know-how and experience can be reduced to homeopathic levels in just a short space of time. Fortunately, not everyone leaves simultaneously and atypical practices like job overlapping and mentoring helps. But given that academics estimate that when employees leave, they take with them up to 90% of their employers' unique knowledge - most of it tacit and nothing of which typically gets into data banks - the compounded attrition of this distinctive component of intellectual capital is still truly massive.

The world's biggest artificial intelligence companies, including Facebook and Google, have joined forces to mould the ethical rules that will govern how robots and computer programs behave in the future.

About time and welcome. I hope that those with experience of medical ethics are also involved. For two reasons; medicine is likely to be a major player and beneficiary of AI (eg personalised drugs) and medical ethics is a mature field that is used to responding to rapid innovation.

Social search - is Google missing a trick?

Steve, have you tried Greplin and if so what's your experience? Does it negate the need for other search tools (I don't want a proliferation of search tools)? Does the indexing slow up your machine?

Gary, it does a better search of your social networks than Google, probably because you're giving it permission to index them. You still need a general search engine (such as Google) for the broader internet content. Indexing has no impact on your machine. I haven't used it long enough to determine whether or not it's features are useful enough to make it my first choice search engine for social media/social network content.
