Quote 5: Modelling
“Without modelling, we might think we are learning to think holistically when we are actually learning to jump to conclusions.”

Ronald J. Baker

The Hunt for Artificial Intelligence
The Hunt for Artificial Intelligence – AI is everywhere! There is not an industry, a service, a product that does not advertise its AI capabilities.

Quote 3: Probabilities
Probabilities – “One winter night during one of the many German air raids on Moscow in World War II, a distinguished Soviet professor of statistics showed up in his local air-raid shelter. He had never appeared there before. “There are seven million people in Moscow”, he used to say. “Why should I expect them to hit me?” His friends were astonished to see him and asked what happened to change his mind. “Look”, he explained, “there are seven million people in Moscow and one elephant. Last night they got the elephant.” […]. /n What the professor experience really illuminates, is the dual character that runs throughout everything to do with probability: past frequencies can collide with degrees of belief when risky choices must be made.”
Peter L. Bernstein

Software Architecture Explained for Non-Technical Managers – The software architecture is the master plan that combines the general software and hardware solutions to achieve the goals in respect of the global constraints.

Quote 2: Changing Ideas
“The most effective way of changing ideas is not from outside by conflict but from within by the insight rearrangement of available information.”
Edward de Bono
