How did we recognize the behavioral patterns of managers before the ChatGPT era?

In a previous post, I showed a lecture by Prof. Michael Wooldridge of The Alan Turing Institute on the development of data analysis methods for artificial intelligence. Not so long ago, 7 years ago, a team from Siegen University and I analyzed the behavior of managers using classical pattern recognition methods, and it was very effective. I will briefly describe the research we conducted and recorded the behavior of managers using TransistorsHead.com’s managerial tools. We involved 150 volunteers in the

How to calculate if your business will be profitable? Part 1

You’ve probably ever wondered why companies like HP, IBM or Google have huge finance departments, with hundreds or thousands of employees handling the company’s finances. So, is the way money circulates so complicated that so many employees are needed accounting, invoicing, calculating budgets, assessing cost intensity and so on? Yes, that’s exactly right – the world of money in large companies is very complicated, and everything but the treasury requirements go towards giving an answer as to whether something we

How did artificial intelligence evolve from pattern recognition to ChatGPT?

The Alan Turing Institute has extremely interesting videos on its YouTube channel about artificial intelligence and the development of computing techniques. One such video is a lecture by Professor Michael Wooldridge, who shows the path of development from pattern recognition, a method that has been evolving since the 1980s, to the current technology of language models, of which ChatGPT is a representative. The lecture is extremely interesting, as we will learn from it how images are recognized and why pattern

You have an idea for a business: how should you promote your products?

I have already described the product, price and distribution. That is, first, second, third. And what is the fourth? Promotion. There are two beliefs that you need to get away from. One is to associate promotion with price reductions in stores and sales of goods, and the other is to understand the word advertising as all the company’s activities to familiarize the customer with the product. Both are untrue. Promotion is one of the marketing tools you will use to

Have you seen the amazing humanoid robots that don’t look like humans at all, but perform the same actions?

Lately, I’ve been believing more and more that an artificial manager will look like a human, move like a human, and maybe one day you won’t be able to distinguish it from your former boss at all. When I conducted experiments with students in 2021, led by an artificial manager built from my TransistorsHead.com system, the manager on the screen looked like the one in Figure 1. Figure 1. TransistorsHead.com’s artificial manager interface In Figure 1, in the right left
