why do silver medalists often feel that they fail while their bronze-medaling counterparts feel a measure of success? what reframing failure has to do with innovation? @IQSbarcelona 9 April at 11am
Scholarships for good students!
Learning from the Luddites “A still-underappreciated truism of our technological moment is that there is great solidarity to be found in refusing a technology—AI, mostly—that is used to exploit or replace a worker” www.bostonreview.net/forum/the-ai...
wonderful, thanks for sharing it

Professor Mina Cikara is already in Barcelona for her talk at IQS Barcelona on this coming Tuesday 17 March at 11am. If you wish to know something about her life and work, a good introduction could be The Harvard Crimson. www.thecrimson.com/image/2023/9...

there is a certain feeling that technology is unavoidable in the air....
Although Mina Cikara is primarily a social psychologist whose work centers on intergroup processes, empathy, bias, and social neuroscience, her research has been widely taken up in behavioral economics, management, organizational behavior, marketing, and political economy.

“Truly worthwhile things aren’t done for the sake of compensation” Antoni Gaudí
If you are in Barcelona, this is a must! We will welcome the author of Gaudí's most amazing biography, Mn. Armand Puig, for a conversation about Gaudí's life and work. We will talk about Gaudí's ideas about sustainability, innovation, management and religiosity, among others.

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

"Muere un hombre sin hogar en Barcelona en ola de frío..."
Han muerto de frío, sí.
Pero también y sobre todo, de abandono institucional, de falta de recursos adecuados, dignos y suficientes.
De insolidaridad y aporofobia.
Porque no mata el frío, #MataLaCalle
#NadieSinHogar
#PersonasSinHogar

scary: the logic is that editors will start using AI as well and stop reading the papers they are expected to assess. Is this the final end of peer review? (the Economist has actually talked about that recently)
