This realistic assessment of asset performance allows us to incorporate feedback, reduce risk, and enhance efficiency from the outset.. Understanding Chip Thinking®.
Gogan says she hopes that’s wrong, because there are currently four billion people in the world who lack access to enough electricity, and 850 million people who lack access to any electricity at all.In fact, the latter figure is expected to increase to three billion people by 2050.
It’s essential that we start addressing where all of this needed energy is going to come from.Eric Ingersoll has conducted analysis which suggests that if everyone on earth had access to just a median level of electricity (about 4,000 kilowatt hours compared to an existing rate of 15,000 kilowatt hours in the U.S.), even then, we’d need to triple our energy infrastructure.It’s vital that we start taking our rising energy demand into account, and building it into our climate mitigation strategies..
Replacing fossil fuels with sustainable energy infrastructure.Overcoming the climate emergency won’t stop with decarbonising electricity production.
We need to replace our entire global, fossil fuel based energy infrastructure by 2050.
Transport and industry must be addressed alongside electricity production.Was it the young, the old, the fit, the lawful, humans over animals?
The idea was to investigate the embedded moral decisions made by autonomous cars in dangerous situations.The results are interesting in that they showed, unsurprisingly that different individuals and cultures gave different responses.
Whose do we use?These decisions have real-life implications.. ‘We better be sure that the purpose put into the machine is the purpose we really desire,’ Norbert Weiner stated in 1960..
