DESCRIPTION:
The Ultimate Collaboration on “the other side of complexity” Up front, I share a response to this book’s subtitle: Whatever is achievable is not impossible; rather, it has not as yet been achieved. However, I wholly agree with Josh Sullivan and Angela Zutavern that – with rare exception -- a superior machine in collaboration with a superior human will outperform a superior machine or a superior human working alone. It is also true that there are certain tasks that a superior machine cannot do or do better than can a superior humanand vice versa.What Sullivan and Zutavern characterize as “the cost-effective answer in their book.Readers will ap. When Algorithms Rule! "The Mathematical Corporation" by Sullivan and Zutavern is an interesting book about the dynamic environment of businesses today. The authors discuss mining data, generalizable solution sets, multi-disciplinary applications, deep learning and examining unknown complexity.When scientists perform regressions and correlations, much may be gleaned from the analysis. More importantly, outliers are identified for further analysis and refinement of the basic rule structures. In addition, machines identify organic patterns, clusters, classifications and unique sequences. Traditional mathematics, operations r. Questions Girl said Questions, here we come!. This is not another book about "big data" but rather a book about the qualities leaders need to forge ahead in our increasingly data driven world. Leaders of the past have focused on success and while success is the goal, future leaders must see failures as part of the grand process to achieve even greater successes. Fear of failure, be gone! The Mathematical Corporation provides myriad examples of how data of all kinds gives us insight to our deep questions.In reading this, I was reminded of "The Machine" from Person of Interest, but the real Machine hasn't been built by one Mr. Finch. It's continua
Josh Sullivan and Angela Zutavern's extraordinary examples include the entrepreneur who upended preventive health care, the oceanographer who transformed fisheries management, and the pharmaceutical company that used algorithm-driven optimization to boost vaccine yields. Leaders must transform how they run their organizations, or competitors will bring them crashing to earth - often overnight. Together they make the mathematical corporation, the business model of the future.We are at a once-in-a-decade breaking point similar to the quality revolution of the 1980s and the dawn of the Internet age in the 1990s. Mathematical corporations - the organizations that will master the future - will outcompete high-flying rivals by merging the best of human ingenuity with machine intelligence. Only they can ask crucial questions to capitalize on business opportunities newly discovered in oceans of data. Thi
