기계가 볼 수 있다 |
|
컴퓨터가 이 세상에 등장한 이후, 과학자들은 사람이 세상을 보는 것을 모방할 수 있는 기계를 꿈꿔왔다. 만약 그렇게만 된다면 그 기계는 사물을 파악하고, 상황을 분석하고, 보는 것을 해석할 수 있을 것이다. 꿈만 같았던 이러한 희망이 최근 가능성을 보여주고 있다. 엄청난 연산 능력의 진보와 그것이 가능하게 하는 소프트웨어가 꿈을 점차 현실화하고 있다.

The Great Global Con |
|
Most companies rely on about 14 percent of the world뭩 population ?the consumers with per capita spending power of $10,000 per year or greater ?to drive their revenues. Unfortunately, for the foreseeable future, growth in the population of affluent developed economies like the U.S., Japan, and the EU will be stagnant or declining. Fortunately, another 1.5 billion consumers will 밻merge?over the next five years, representing the largest consumption boom in human history. |

Self-Esteem Is a Rea |
|
In earlier generations, teachers worried about students mastering skills rather than having high self-esteem. They knew that high self-esteem in the long run was the product of high achievement, not the other way around. But, based on spurious beliefs about what determines human performance, the emphasis of education has changed dramatically over the past two to three decades. |
