The Pandemic Impact on the Gig Economy The recent pandemic hit the Gig Economy and possibly changed its evolution in two main ways: Emphasised the critical work environment with low societal protection Boosted the Gig Economy with, possibly, lasting effects Critical Work Environment The insecurity of work intrinsic in the …

Decoupling of CDT knowledge from the physical person The decoupling of a CDT from its physical twin can be leveraged in two opposite ways, as a proxy. and as an augmentation of the physical twin (it makes most sense when applied to a person) Both generate economic value and biz …

Multiplication of use of knowledge through instantiation A CDT is a software entity (data and, possibly, processing capability at stage III and IV) and as such it can be instantiated, i.e. copies can be created and activated at the same time. However, the nature of a CDT (as well, although …

Exploitation of knowledge in the cyberspace A CDT at stage IV becomes a knowledge entity that can be sold as a whole or by granting access to a subset of its knowledge space, through APIs. A CDT can advertise itself, its “executable” knowledge in various ways and there will likely …

– Delegation of functions to the CDT for interaction in the company cyberspace Once at level IV a CDT can act autonomously in a company cyberspace to make knowledge available to company’s resources. These resources can be other CDTs and employees. A CDT may interact with other company’s CDT searching …

– Search for knowledge in the network of CDT Within a company several CDTs may form a network of knowledge. In turn this can be mirrored by a CDT (the firm CDT) or it may exist as a network. That would be the case when CDTs are mirroring knowledge of …

– Improve cooperative working exploiting complementary knowledge CDTs can be considered as active knowledge repositories: the keypoint is “active”. They can establish relations with other CDTs and explore the cyberspace to become aware of new knowledge and how that knowledge complement / obsolete their own knowledge. Within a firm there …

Exploitation of Knowledge Digital Twins Digital twins are used by industry to mirror production processes and products. This mirroring is becoming more and more extensive to cover knowledge aspects. The adoption of Personal Digital Twins to mirror a person knowledge, Cognitive Digital Twin -CDT-is just a natural further step. The …

Machine Knowledge and Economic Value IBM has possibly been the first to “sell” machine knowledge by using Watson. Watson is not like previous expert systems that were crafted to suit a very specific task through algorithms created for that purpose. It is an “almost” general purpose intelligence that can be …

Leveraging Distributed Knowledge As Digital Transformation becomes more pervasive the value of the cyberspace will increase, as part of the value rooted today in the world of atoms shifts to the cyberspace. Tools to manage data (platforms, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, big data, Digital twins,  AR/VR) already make up a …
