This paper analyzes equilibrium social distancing choices in a model with potentially asymptomatic infection. Since infection only prompts symptoms probabilistically, individuals cannot perfectly infer their health state from the absence of symptoms. Instead, they must form beliefs about their health state based on knowledge of the population frequencies. I show that relative to a benchmark with perfect health state information, asymptomatic infection leads to lower mitigation through four distinct channels, some mechanistic and some that work through beliefs and thus decisions. The model is then applied to an analysis of individual and mass testing. The value of the former derives from the value of information and it is shown that the latter may influence the course of the epidemic through its influence on aggregate equilibrium behavior. Tests for immunity generally have a higher value of information and aggregate effects than tests for infection.

This book sheds light on systems that learn extensively, with purpose and naturally interact with humans. Improving operations and increasing competitive differentiation among manufacturing organizations by harnessing the power of cognitive abilities, IoT can help build and influence the flow of information—making the shop floor more cognitive through effective processing, analysis, and operational optimization. Now we are seeing the first-hand potential of cognitive computing—its ability to transform businesses, governments, and society. The real potential of the cognitive age can be realized by combining data analysis and statistical reasoning of machines with uniquely human qualities, such as self-directed goals, common sense, and moral values, improving operations and increasing competitive differentiation among manufacturing organizations. By harnessing the power of cognitive abilities, IoT can help build and influence the flow of information—making the shop floor more cognitive through effective processing, analysis, and operational optimization. Cognitive initiatives come in all shapes and sizes, from change to strategy and everything in between. What most successful projects have in common, no matter how ambitious, is they start with a clear view of what technology can do. Therefore, the first job of a cognitive scientists is to gain a firm understanding of cognitive abilities, as presented in this book.

Persuasion is the most important skill you can develop. Politicians, salespeople, bosses, journalists, teachers, parents... all need to persuade to get things done according to them. However, Persuasion is about applying internal pressure to get work done. Mediocre business people make the mistake of putting external pressure on customers to buy their products and services. But more pressure they apply… more skeptical and resistant customers become. If you want to win the sales, build INTERNAL PRESSURE on your customers. Using external pressure tactics, you're forcing your customers to buy your products. This is what desperate salespeople do. But using internal pressure tactics, your customer thinks he is deciding and buying from you. In this case, it's not a salesperson who is selling… It's the customer who is purchasing. You’ll learn ● How to present the offer in the mind of the customer to avoid instant rejection ● A smart technique to capture the attention of your busy customer in a crowded place ● How to sell products and services to severe pessimistic and skeptical customers ● A principle of influence and persuasion that if not used properly could make your prospects confused and even paralyzed to make a decision. Once you understand this concept it could become one of the most powerful marketing weapons to bring sales. ● 18 effective ways to create value and urgency in your customer’s mind ● How do some big brands take advantage of shoppers’ casualness? And it’s not just big brands; many businesses use the same strategy to reduce their manufacturing & shipping costs and increase profits without customers’ knowledge. ● A proven method to qualify serious customers. It could also help you outsmart every other competitor in your industry if you know how and when to use it ● How to take advantage of a customer’s confusion ● A powerful mind game to be played with people who take you too much for granted… who don’t respect you… who don’t appreciate you… who want to dominate you ● How to show your superiority against your competitors? (this is very important if you’re in an extremely competitive business and want to kill your competition mercilessly) ● How penny saver customers are persuaded to spend more money ● A smart technique used in some advertisements to make your audience believe in the functioning of your products ● How to take control of negotiation right from the beginning ● How to save your advertisement from skepticism and rejection of customers ● What are the seducing characteristics of super Marketers and Salespeople that make them extremely lethal ● How to persuade those (including your near and dear ones) who don’t listen to you… don’t follow your instructions… ignore your suggestions… don’t leave bad habits even after your repeated requests… ● How a psychological tactic designed for interrogation is now used by smart business people, politicians, recruiters in hard-core negotiations. Warning: If not used properly it could destroy your relationship with the other party. ● One of the most powerful ways to write advertisement headlines, email subjects, book titles… to get the immediate attention of even the busiest people ● One potent technique of Persuasion that reduces the negotiating power of other parties whether it’s the buyer or seller. Using this technique a normal person could be turned into a desperate person for other products and services. ● A subtle persuasion technique used by rich, powerful, and famous people’s kids to change the mind of others. You can use the same technique to influence people who don’t like you. ● How to take advantage of customer’s impatience in beating the competition ● A lethal Persuasion technique that has made us highly vulnerable to covert attacks from people who know how to use this technique. Coronavirus has used the same technique to capture our bodies.

How big data and machine learning encode discrimination and create agitated clusters of comforting rage. In Discriminating Data, Wendy Hui Kyong Chun reveals how polarization is a goal—not an error—within big data and machine learning. These methods, she argues, encode segregation, eugenics, and identity politics through their default assumptions and conditions. Correlation, which grounds big data’s predictive potential, stems from twentieth-century eugenic attempts to “breed” a better future. Recommender systems foster angry clusters of sameness through homophily. Users are “trained” to become authentically predictable via a politics and technology of recognition. Machine learning and data analytics thus seek to disrupt the future by making disruption impossible. Chun, who has a background in systems design engineering as well as media studies and cultural theory, explains that although machine learning algorithms may not officially include race as a category, they embed whiteness as a default. Facial recognition technology, for example, relies on the faces of Hollywood celebrities and university undergraduates—groups not famous for their diversity. Homophily emerged as a concept to describe white U.S. resident attitudes to living in biracial yet segregated public housing. Predictive policing technology deploys models trained on studies of predominantly underserved neighborhoods. Trained on selected and often discriminatory or dirty data, these algorithms are only validated if they mirror this data. How can we release ourselves from the vice-like grip of discriminatory data? Chun calls for alternative algorithms, defaults, and interdisciplinary coalitions in order to desegregate networks and foster a more democratic big data.

The emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in late 2002 and 2003 challenged the global public health community to confront a novel epidemic that spread rapidly from its origins in southern China until it had reached more than 25 other countries within a matter of months. In addition to the number of patients infected with the SARS virus, the disease had profound economic and political repercussions in many of the affected regions. Recent reports of isolated new SARS cases and a fear that the disease could reemerge and spread have put public health officials on high alert for any indications of possible new outbreaks. This report examines the response to SARS by public health systems in individual countries, the biology of the SARS coronavirus and related coronaviruses in animals, the economic and political fallout of the SARS epidemic, quarantine law and other public health measures that apply to combating infectious diseases, and the role of international organizations and scientific cooperation in halting the spread of SARS. The report provides an illuminating survey of findings from the epidemic, along with an assessment of what might be needed in order to contain any future outbreaks of SARS or other emerging infections.
