The Global Company Giants …. Remain …. As Giants-by Michael Roberts Source:Thuppahis Attend any business conference or open any management book and an encounter with some variation of the same message is almost guaranteed: the pace of change in business is accelerating, and no one is safe from disruption. Recent breakthroughs in artificial intelligence (ai) have left many corporate Goliaths nervously anticipating David’s sling, fearing that they might meet the same fate as firms such as Kodak and Blockbuster, two giants that were felled by the digital revolution. “The Innovator’s Dilemma”, a seminal book written in 1997 by Clayton Christensen, a management guru, observed that incumbents hesitate to pursue radical innovations that would make their products or services cheaper or more convenient, for fear of denting the profitability of their existing businesses. In the midst of technological upheaval, that creates an opening for upstarts unencumbered by such considerations. Yet the reality is that America Inc ...

The death of Jude – By GEORGE BRAINE Jude passed away two years ago, at the height of the covid pandemic, from covid. He was mourned deeply by his small family, but, no memorial service was held for him, no obituary written, no monument constructed. In accordance with prevailing regulations, he was cremated, and not even his ashes could be recovered. Behind the passing of Jude lies a lifetime of neglect and exploitation – by family and fellow villagers, by an evangelical church, by doctors and nurses and hospital workers, even a crematorium attendant. This narrative memorializes an ordinary man who did not move mountains and whose death did not make headlines, but deserves to be remembered. Some background to begin with. My paternal grandmother lived at Boralessa, a village 43 km north of Colombo. Her older brother Charles was married thrice, and his eldest son from the third marriage ...

Anchorage: Home for Brave Sailors Wounded in Action Source:Slguardian In commemoration of Ranaviru month, a time dedicated to honouring the sacrifices made by military and police personnel for the country, we turn our attention to a remarkable story of resilience and compassion. Today, we shine a light on “Anchorage,” a permanent home for two critically wounded sailors located at Walisara, Sri Lanka. This facility serves as a sanctuary for naval personnel who have sustained severe disabilities in the line of duty. Anchorage, an exquisite eco-friendly building constructed by the Navy Civil Engineers, stands proudly adjacent to the Aqua Golf Driving Range, providing a scenic view of the lake. It was made possible through generous funding by the SLN Seva Wanitha Unit and was officially inaugurated by the then Navy Commander, Admiral Piyal De Silva, on July 1, 2020. ...

Mo Gawdat on Future of AI and Organisation Happiness In anticipation of the keynote discussion ‘Mindful Solutions with Mo Gawdat’ organised by Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts, the former CBO of Google [X] and best-selling author, tackles some questions on the future of technology and human performance. Here’s a sneak peek into areas that will be spoken at the much-awaited discussion set to take place here in Sri Lanka later this month, on 28 August at Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo. Q: Currently, where does Artificial Intelligence stand in the world and where is it taking us?  AI will drastically change people’s lives. This is a very disruptive moment where AI will go against everything we know. When playing Tetris, once we place one block wrong, the games become no longer easy, it becomes quicker, and we know it’s only a matter of minutes before it ends. It’s the same with AI. Q:  How has ...
