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

Microsoft has led the hi-tech industry for more than 40 years. What new things can we find in its products?

Many have already predicted the death of this company, just about every few months. The whole situation is reminiscent with the rumored death of Mark Twain, who later straightened it out this way: “James Ross Clemens (Twain’s real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens), my cousin, was seriously ill in London two or three weeks ago, but has already recovered. The news of my illness grew out of his illness. The news of my death was exaggerated,” Mark Twain wrote in

Fries and pizza from an automated restaurant? What jobs will be replaced by robots in the near future?

Work automation surrounds us to an increasing degree. Although I’m involved in the automation of managerial work, which is really the replacement of the cognitive processes occurring in people’s minds in terms of management with intelligent algorithms, I’m very interested in mechanical robots because of my background. It turns out that there are increasing developments in precision robotics that allow them to be used in practical and commercial products. You can watch a video on the CNBC channel that perfectly

How to measure a manager’s leadership styles with management tools? Part 3

In the previous parts, I described what concepts and divisions of management styles we took into account and why. So what results did we get? Let me remind you of the two hypotheses we posed before the study: We conducted the study on June 29-30, 2021 and lasted 36 hours. The group of observation participants consisted of 6 2nd degree students from the University of Silesia in Katowice, Poland, working in two equal virtual teams, each with a designated team

How to measure a manager’s leadership styles with management tools? Part 2

In my previous post on measuring leadership styles to use knowledge about a manager to simulate his performance and consequently replace him with an artificial manager, I wrote about the first concepts and divisions of leadership styles. Now I will show what division of management styles we took into account and why. First, we looked at the classification of management styles according to R. Likert. He distinguished the following styles: exploitative authoritarian, benevolent authoritarian, consultative and participative (Likert 1958). Such
