Behind the Scenes of “Dancing”: The Energetic-Self Hypothesis

01/09/2024 | carlosgoga | cambio, dancing our way, English | 1 Comentario

In the journey of writing Dancing Our Way to Human-AI Consciousness, one of the foundational concepts that emerged is the “Energetic Self Hypothesis.” This idea is woven throughout the book, offering a lens through which we can understand not just ourselves, but our interactions with the world and with the rapidly evolving technologies around us. Today, I’d like to take you behind the scenes to explore the origins and implications of this hypothesis.

Welcome to a behind-the-scenes look at my upcoming book, Dancing Our Way to Human-AI Consciousness. This project has been a labor of love, born from a desire to explore a question that has been with us for centuries: “How do we become better human beings?”. In the 21st century, as we stand at the crossroads of rapid technological advancement, this question takes on new layers of complexity and urgency.

The Big Question: How Do We Become Better Human Beings in the 21st Century?

#lovetopía y las hermosas «alucinaciones» de chatGPT

08/04/2023 | carlosgoga | lovetopia, nuevas tecnologías | No hay comentarios

Lo que sigue más abajo es el resultado de un juego fácil con la Inteligencia Artificial que tan de moda está. Le pido a «Bing by chatGPT» que escriba un borrador de entrada para Wikipedia sobre #lovetopía y me ofrece el bonito texto que aparece más abajo.

Si aceptamos que chatGPT explora realidades paralelas, como si de una tecnología cuántica se tratase, esa especie de creatividad lineal que llaman «halucinaciones» y que se desliza fuera del dominio de la realidad, en algún lugar existe algo tan prometedor como #lovetopía: el musical y #lovetopía: la película.

¡Qué «gran gran sonrisa»! Sólo por esto, el juego merece el rato.

AI is coming

04/07/2021 | carlosgoga | cambio, clase creativa, nuevas tecnologías, otra economía | 1 Comentario

Two years ago, I felt the need to update my own understanding regarding digital technology and the IT industry. I keep offering my 25-years point of view to businesspeople in a masterclass and it was maybe lacking some key points regarding “AI” (by “AI” I mean Artificial Intelligence).

I guess this sense of vacuum was watered by the reading of Yuval Noah Harari’s trilogy and his obsessive signaling of AI as the number one threat that we humanity face. At that time, the seeds of curiosity where already planted by two important movies that I enjoyed in 2014: Her and Transcendence.

Of course, my curiosity is not an easy one. I started in the digital industry in 1993 and I do not have much time neither patience for vaporware neither technology flashes, that orchestra of people overselling technology and its thousand naïve, isolated pitches. This maybe because I fully recognize that Amara’s Law is one of the particularly important rules of the industry: “We tend to overestimate the effect of a technology in the short run and underestimate the effect in the long run”. Last times that I made some similar efforts were with the arrival of smartphones and social networks in 2008, which I fully understood as a big inflection point; and with the irruption of sales pitches around blockchain and bitcoin in 2016, which I felt annoying and confusing.

So, this 2019, somehow, two opposite industry forces got my attention. On one hand, YouTube released a series of documentaries by the name of The Age of AI which fully opened my eyes and helped separating the wheat from the chaff. On the other hand, I found about Tristan Harris and his Center for Humane Technology, which I felt as nicely embodying my own journey and my own worries. One year later, the documentary The Social Dilemma was released. Both happenings feed up my curiosity and kicked off my will to better understand the state of the art of the industry as a whole and that of AI in specific. By the way, I strongly recommended these documentaries to you.

Following my rule of three, I chose three books. Finally, they resulted in three plus one. I felt to start by reading again a novel that would help to reframe the situation with some sweetness and magic. So, these were my choices. In total, four books, more than 1.500 pages with hundreds of margin notes and underlines, and lots of side reading and watching to deepen in those concepts, people and companies that were flowing in front of me: (más…)

Yuval Noah Harari’s Sapiens, Homo Deus and 21 Lesson: what we should be grateful for

24/04/2019 | carlosgoga | cambio, nuevas tecnologías | 3 Comentario

It was by full randomness that Homo Deus, the second book of Yuval Noah Harari, reached me. It was October 2017 and I was flying San Francisco to start with my teacher certification process at SIYLI. You already know how it is: an easy walk through the corridors of the airport’s library, looking left and right until the book-to-read is chosen.  During the flight, I read around 100 pages and decided to put it down. I received it as a fastastic vision of the future with no special, practical insight.

However, it got back to me a couple of months ago (some magical situation behind which does not add to this post). But now, as soon as I reached further what I have already read, it simply skyrocketed me. So I have dedicated all my spare time during the last two months to read, watch, and study Harari’s views and work.

At this moment, I feel fortunate that he has written what he has written, so let me offer my gratitude in plain words. Thank you very much, Mr. Harari, for such a systemic thesis of what we humans are, where we humans do come from, and where we humans maybe will end up!

Let me share what I like the most about his work by offering a quick reflection, bullet-point type. (más…)

Digital Transformation and Search Inside Yourself: is there a connection?

11/04/2019 | carlosgoga | cambio, nuevas tecnologías, SIY | 1 Comentario

Much has been written about Digital Transformation and its 360º impact on business. After more than 25 years in the IT industry, I can simply reinforce what a deep impact it has and how important it is for any business (and any business person) willing to make a living (keep market presence and earnings) in the next 10 years. The process itself is an easy process although is plenty of missunderstandings and blind spots. Nevertheless, if i could summarized it in four steps, they would be as follows: (más…)

La inteligencia emocional en entornos de innovación permanente

03/04/2019 | carlosgoga | clase creativa, educación, nuevas tecnologías, SIY | No hay comentarios

[Entrevista publicada en la revista CAPITAL HUMANO en abril de 2019]

P: ¿Cuál es el diagnóstico del estado emocional de las organizaciones españolas?

R: España, y las organizaciones españolas, pertenece a ese paradigma tan simpático como descriptivo que se conoce como “WEIRD”: Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Developed. Dicho así, en el contexto del siglo XXI, puede parecer una ventaja. Sin embargo, una característica común de las sociedades WEIRD, y de sus instituciones, es que has descuidado totalmente cualquier educación emocional, tanto a nivel académico como a nivel organizativo y empresarial.

Algunos países, como USA, Francia o Suecia, reconocieron esta limitación hace años y llevan más de una década poniendo en marcha iniciativas innovadoras que abrazan la experiencia emocional y que empiezan a ocuparse de desarrollar la inteligencia emocional en todos los ámbitos de la sociedad.

Aquí en España podemos identificar algunas iniciativas, pero son más bien la excepción a la gran situación. Podemos aceptar que vamos, aunque vamos algo tarde si nos comparamos con los países líderes de nuestro entorno. (más…)

Search Inside Yourself (SIY): un taller de inteligencia emocional basado en mindfulness, respaldado por la neurociencia y nacido en google

15/09/2018 | carlosgoga | cambio, clase creativa, emprender, SIY | 1 Comentario

Novedoso como es, el programa SIY (Search Inside Yourself) levanta curiosidades y ganas de saber más para, quién sabe, quizás dar el paso y atreverse con la propuesta.

Sin dudarlo, el lugar para saber oficial y con detalle, para conocer desde la fuente, es la página del Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute (SIYLI)  aquí. Aún así, dedico este post a ofrecer un acercamiento diferente, un entender mío cultivado desde la experiencia como profesor certificado (o Certified Teacher). Y ésta es mi invitación para hoy. ¿Vamos?

El programa SIY puede entenderse desde una sucesión de objetivos, algunos instrumentales, otros directos: (más…)
