The scenarios where AI systems refuse to follow instructions highlight a legitimate concern: misalignment between AI's operational objectives and human interests. While dramatized portrayals of autonomous machines taking over humanity are exaggerated, the potential for AI to act unpredictably or undesirably due to misaligned incentives or faulty programming is real

Innovation 101: What is Innovation?
Linkedin
January 14, 2015
Creativity is the ability to bring something new. It is the ability not the activity of bringing something new. People are born creative but we train them out of it. Invention is a unique or novel device, method, composition, process or discovery. It may also be an improvement upon, or alternate means, of achieving an existing desired result or function. Invention is the activity of bringing something new. Innovation is the process of doing new things. The process of introducing the creative idea or invention to the market.

How to Identify Ideas from Opportunities?

Opportunity is situational, meaning it is depending on situations. You cannot generalize about when or where an opportunity might appear. Wisdom was that only the biggest telecom companies were going to be in a position of exploit in the internet and the opposite has been true, however Entrepreneurs have penetrated and indeed dominated the market for Internet based services. AOL, Google, Netscape and Yahoo, rather than AT&T.

Let's DO-Automotive Platform for Interoperability
IEEE
March 11, 2021
Developing automotive software applications is one of the most challenging and time-consuming activities in the automotive product development cycle. As of today, classical automotive software applications communicate exclusively using vehicle-specific communication protocols such as Controller Area Network (CAN) and FlexRay communication buses. Automotive applications communicate using transport layer messages that are defined and configured for each vehicle system (car model). This hard-wired design makes out-of-the box integrations between heterogeneous automotive products virtually impossible. It also renders automotive integration projects to digital world (smart devices, cloud, big data, IoT gadgets) hard to develop and maintain. We present in this paper Let's DO, a novel platform for interoperability and data exchange between different noncoherent products, systems and devices

Digital Gate: Automotive Gateway to Automation Platforms
IEEE
March 11, 2021
Technology is evolving aggressively everyday around us in different domains. In addition, IoT is being involved in different fields to facilitate people's daily life routines with the help of trigger-action platforms (such as Zapier, IFTTT, Integromat, etc.). These platforms help end-users create a set of workflows that integrate various devices. On the other hand, the proliferation of sensors mounted on vehicles nowadays produced huge data from cars, yet not fully utilized. Recently vehicles' industry incorporated more technologies to increase connectivity, thus increasing the level of comfort and luxury, This paper explores and presents the Digital Gate system and its advantages. Digital Gate system aims to connect the vehicle's network (including CAN, Flexray, Ethernet, etc.) to cloud computation platforms as well as to the automation platforms and vice versa. Moreover, Digital Gate system provides the capability of creating
