Learning Organization Survey - 0 views

  •  
    "Thank you for your interest in the Learning Organization Survey. This is a complete version of the survey described in our Harvard Business Review article "Is Yours a Learning Organization?" The survey is meant only for your personal benefit, and your answers will not be used or seen by anyone other than yourself. It is our hope the survey results will provide a starting point to help you assess how well your organization meets the criteria for being a learning organization, especially in comparison to the benchmarks we have established in previous research. The output you receive will show your own scores on every learning building block as well as the corresponding benchmark scores; the benchmark medians and quartiles you will see after completing this survey are the very same ones that appear in our article. Please note that because your results will be based solely on your own perceptions of your organization's learning environment, processes, and leadership, they may differ from the results of other employees within the organization."

The Chess Master and the Computer - The New York Review of Books - 0 views

  • It was my luck (perhaps my bad luck) to be the world chess champion during the critical years in which computers challenged, then surpassed, human chess players. Before 1994 and after 2004 these duels held little interest. The computers quickly went from too weak to too strong.
  • Having a computer partner also meant never having to worry about making a tactical blunder. The computer could project the consequences of each move we considered, pointing out possible outcomes and countermoves we might otherwise have missed.
  • With that taken care of for us, we could concentrate on strategic planning instead of spending so much time on calculations.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • The winner was revealed to be not a grandmaster with a state-of-the-art PC but a pair of amateur American chess players using three computers at the same time.
  • The teams of human plus machine dominated even the strongest computers.
  • Their skill at manipulating and "coaching" their computers to look very deeply into positions effectively counteracted the superior chess understanding of their grandmaster opponents and the greater computational power of other participants. Weak human + machine + better process was superior to a strong computer alone and, more remarkably, superior to a strong human + machine + inferior process.
  • correctly evaluating a small handful of moves is far more important in human chess, and human decision-making in general, than the systematically deeper and deeper search for better moves—the number of moves "seen ahead"—that computers rely on.

      interesting. Deserves further reflection on the implicactions.
  • Instead, every year we have new chess programs, and new versions of old ones, that are all based on the same basic programming concepts for picking a move by searching through millions of possibilities that were developed in the 1960s and 1970s.

    A VERY interesting article reflecting on the evolution of chess under the onslaught of computers and software that play chess, and where it has all been going. The implications for Knowledge Management are there, waiting to be picked up. Discussions of tech versus human can be drawn to their ending point with it.

Topicmarks: A Cool Web Tool To Help You Summarize Long Documents - 3 views

  •  
    Topicmarks is a web tool that will help you summarize English text. It will also store the summaries in its storage space under your account forever - for free, unless you decide to discard items. However, the developer does have a plan to charge "heavy users" in the future. With the help of Topicmarks' "summarizing engine", you can get the idea of a long article in a snap - without the trouble of going through the original text. There are several methods you can use to submit texts that you want the Topicmarks engine to summarize. The first one is by uploading the text file from your computer. Topicmarks can handle text from several different kinds of file format. These include Adobe Acrobat PDF (.pdf), Microsoft Word (.doc, .docx), OpenOffice ODF text (.odt), Hypertext Markup Language (.htm, .html), and of course Plain text (.txt).
