No call today; work on digital transformation

Following the call for comments, we published the chunks specification as an official draft CG report. We now have a few GitHub issues for further work, e.g. whether to use “!” in place of “~” when chunk properties should not match a given value.

I have been working on how Cognitive AI can be used as part of the digital transformation of industry. This involves a framework for:

Shared knowledge in the form of read/write knowledge graphs, and signed non-erasable entries in shared ledgers
Supervisory agents using general purpose human-like AI that work in collaboration with human colleagues
Workers that perform specific purposes, e.g. factory machinery and information services
Physical and virtual artefacts, e.g. materials and products under assembly, digital certificates and contracts

You can see more in the slides I’ve prepared for an upcoming internal Siemens IoT conference:
