Stakeholder capitalism is urgently needed – and the COVID-19 crisis shows us why (World Economic Forum)
‘At the Forum’s Annual Meeting 2020 in Davos earlier this year, “all the talk was about purpose and stakeholder capitalism,” she added. “And I think this is the moment to say, ‘Okay. If we’re serious about that, let’s make sure that we bring that lens of stakeholder capitalism, of collective value creation, to the table in how we structure the details of things like the bailouts,'” Mazzucato argued, referencing recent government financial rescue packages in response to COVID-19.’ Christopher Alessi via Weforum.org

Artificial Or Human Intelligence? Companies Faking AI (Forbes)
Ron Schmelzer decribes a suspicion that feels familiar when testing public AI offerings in the wild: ‘The entire premise of AI is that it can accomplish feats that previously only humans were able to do. So faking AI capabilities actually undermines the very essence of what AI is promising to be able to do. AI is still a very emerging field and new artificial intelligence technology is being developed every day. Emerging companies are pitching technology solutions whose premise is that they can accomplish technically challenging tasks. But rather than delivering on these promises, these companies are simply performing technology-enabled outsourcing to humans, and often at very low wages. Incidents like this have the potential to create a lot of problems in the tech industry. One of the biggest is the potential for an AI winter if people consistently see products that are being faked regularly’. via Forbes.com
