Riflessioni un po’ più lunghe per approfondire alcuni argomenti che ho trovato interessanti

What's a book blurb?

I guess I'm not the only one who has seen many book blurbs without knowing their name.

They're on many books, promoting them (yes, it's marketing!):

A blurb is a short promotional piece accompanying a piece of creative work. It may be written by the author or publisher or quote praise from others.

AI is here to stay

AI technology has many problems (like every new revolutionary technology) and there are many boundaries to put on them.

Anyway I believe AI technology cannot be completely stopped, just regulated.

There are many decision to be taken by governments, but that's part of the game.

Is content still the king?

With the upcoming AI revolution and integration with Bing, Google & Co. the paradigm underlying search queries will change.

AI will reply to user questions with a natural language without the need of providing a list of websites as happened till now.

This may change the way we access the web, replacing the idea behind it forever.

Writing is a good habit

Thinking is a good habit too.

That's why I'm mixing them together in this sort of microblog.

There is only one simple rule here: there are no rules!

Blogging is a marathon

If you want to become a blogger you've to remind yourself that it's a long jouney and not a short run.

Long term commitment is needed for your blog to reach an audience.

Keep it in mind!

Wandering thougths

“Thinking: the talking of the soul with itself.”

Plato

Sometimes I feel a stranger for myself.

I think our inner self is more complicated than we usually think.

Perché fallire fa bene

“Il successo non è definitivo, il fallimento non è fatale: è il coraggio di continuare che conta”. – Winston Churchill

Ogni volta che falliamo in qualcosa impariamo a evitare lo stesso errore. Inoltre, il fallimento insegna la resilienza.

Ecco perché il fallimento fa parte del processo di apprendimento umano ed è una pietra miliare del metodo scientifico.

Is there an age for political retirement?

Trump vs. Biden 💡 Disclaimer: this post may be controversial in some way.

Politics (with a capitol P) should shape the future of a nation and new generations.

That's why is somehow strange that political leaders are often elder people.

I've nothing against it, I believe maturity and experience are very important in politics, but leadership must take decisions that will impact the future for the coming years (or decades).

I guess there is the need to involve young citizen to decision that will impact their life and future families.

How to do it? It's hard to tell, but I believe we should start to think about it.

Out for a walk

It seems that Today the weather is quite unsure... That said we decided to go out for a short walk in the surroundings.

Sometimes it's hard to remember how pleasant can be to breath fresh air in a natural environment till you do it.

Quite tired

“My key to dealing with stress is simple: just stay cool and stay focused.”

Ashton Eaton

Last working week was very hard and I'm quite tired in these days.

Luckily during weekends I can have enough time to charge my batteries again to afford next challenges.
