  2. The trend with Boeing, the magistrate judge, and other stories is that dishonesty is being rewarded and rising to the top. I wonder where the threshold is where we are no longer able to maintain a complex economy. You can’t build airplanes when middle management is lying about whether quality control of the components was properly done. This is also reminiscent of the Feynman’s study of the Challenger disaster, showing that dishonesty and mismanagement compounded in a failure that blew up the entire rocket.

    “The answers from the engineers all said, in one form or another: one in about 200 [chance of failure]. [the manager’s confidence:] 100 percent.”

  4. Went to a logistics conference last week, heard people talking that the Baltimore Bridge accident and barges set loose incident are suspected to be “terrorist” acts. Also more of such incidents are expected to disrupt transport in the future. It really doesn’t matter what the headline news reports. People working in that industry know what is going on.

    “I learned more from this speaker in one hour, than from any other I’ve heard” 
    All In on AI for People and Organizations | Thomas H. Davenport / May | MIT Press
    The HBSAB and MIT Press invite you to join us on. Many companies are dipping their toes into artificial intelligence, but only a few are attempting to put AI at the core of their strategies and business models. Similarly, many individuals are experimenting with AI use, but haven’t fully embedded the technology into their work. Drawing from his two most recent books, Tom Davenport will describe what companies and individuals that aspire to be “all in on AI” do, and the types of outcomes they can achieve. Though these organizations represent less than 1 percent of large companies, they are all high performers in their industries. They have better business models, make better decisions, have better relationships with their customers, offer better products and services, and command higher prices.
