The Paradox of Development. In 2008, Google created a system to predict flu outbreaks in advance. Initially, the tool accurately forecasted when and where the flu might occur. However, in 2013, a new feature was added that suggested related search terms. As a result, searchers began inputting their queries less carefully, which led to a decline in the system’s predictive performance. Although improvements have been made since then, this example illustrates how enhancements in one area can cause failures in another. Therefore, it seems like we gain by losing, and often lose by gaining. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
We believe that we communicate with each other by exchanging text messages through mobile messengers without ever having to meet in person. Furthermore, we believe that property rights to land are simply changed by altering the name on the land document without physically moving the property. A transaction can only take place if you first conceptualize it. There’s no deal if you don’t get others on your side by conceptualizing your assets. The “assetization of value” that prices an asset creates a transaction target, and the conceptualization of that target makes it a transactionable credit. To succeed in business, you must be good at conceptualizing assets and assetizing values that others quickly agree upon. That’s the basis. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
