Analytical thinking, creative thinking, AI and Big Data, Leadership, and social influence are critical skills while innovation is not even listed.
BITSPEC offers these opportunities to reach the next level of skills.
Cultures are both like DNA and RNA—they carry inherited identity and adaptive expression. Therefore, no one should ever be asked to abandon their own culture to follow one created by someone else. This is the reason why scientists can not detect the "culture" in our genes.
Cultures are not the same as transferable skills; therefore, mixing them is not as simple as combining elements of math, biology, chemistry, physics, religion, or any other discipline.
The mistakes made in building and expanding cities to accommodate a more diverse population are both qualitative and quantitative. These mistakes often result in poverty, as maintaining poorly constructed or ill-conceived developments becomes increasingly costly.
Every building, park, or public space reflects the culture that conceived it, embodying the underlying beliefs of its creators.
This is not unlike the difference between naturally formed precious stones, shaped over years by nature, and those manufactured in laboratories.
Nature’s imperfections are part of its essence, while the belief that cultures can simply be mixed and will thrive harmoniously is misguided. A flawed principle can never yield positive outcomes.
EdTech can light up the next century of education – and I believe it will – but there are no guarantees.
So getting AI on the right track now is the most important challenge for global education in a generation.
And we have far to go to deliver the scale of progress that I know is possible.
Our evidence-base is too narrow, too shallow, too concentrated in certain parts of the world, too focused on certain parts of the system.
More research is needed; better research is needed.
On impact.
On value.
On sustainability.
And on safety.
We need to come together to grow a global, collective consensus – a suite of effective tools, built on top-class evidence.
That’s how, together, we can make sure EdTech and AI deliver the very best learning for children.

"PRS suffer from an interpretation problem: we are not yet sure what conclusions can be drawn from them. While some of the predictive signal captured in PRS comes from direct genetic effects, i.e., from variants that influence the phenotype of the individual, other predictive signals are also captured in a standard non-family-based GWAS. These include indirect genetic effects, for example genetic nurture url=https://genomemedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13073-021-00829-7#ref-CR17]17[/url. Effects of assortative mating and environmental confounding are also captured. In addition to these forms of gene-environment correlation, gene-by-environment interactions, where the same variant has a different overall effect in different environments, may also play a role. It is therefore not appropriate to straightforwardly draw causal conclusions from PRS"

PRS will force a reckoning with pre-existing questions concerning biomarkers, namely the relevance of self-reported race, ethnicity and ancestry, and the relationship of risk factors to disease diagnoses. In this Opinion, we argue that despite the parallels to the monogenic setting, new work is urgently needed to gather data, consider normative implications, and develop best practices around this emerging branch of genomics.

We learn about patterns to identify trends and make "just in time" decisions that prevent any type of loss.
Since we know "what, who, why, how" the question is why those who want peace don't admit to the large differences that will always exist at a population level.
Do we have leaders who do not want peace?
Can new voters and fake IDs be generated through AI? The answer is YES.
Any political party or organization can, in fact, produce as many fake identities as necessary to win any election.
The only way to verify authenticity is to have another in-person election without any opportunity for mailing-in ballots.
We shall all know how to create GenAI that does not counter-produce what the population does not want mainly in the political voting system.
We name everything to distinguish the events and try not to repeat those that were costly, degrading, etc.
Ghetto was an urban area that distinguished itself for separating the populations.
"Ferdinand was very gracious to the Jews. In dividing the land he remembered all who had rendered him any service in capturing the city, as well as the Jewish tax collectors, physicians, and interpreters; he gave the Jews some of the mosques also, to be transformed into synagogues, and permitted them to live in the ghetto".
Canada knows that poverty lasts over generations since we can have the experience of the Indigenous population who were marginalized.
When a large number of immigrants are offered hotels while the Canadians have no decent housing, the path of separation for the next generations is already set.

The creation system differs in all aspects and its unique purpose would be difficult to comprehend.
Yet, within the natural system, we should be able to better relate to the quality of life to respect humans, animals, and nature.
Being kind towards all animals shows evolution on the human's scale of values.
Do animals have a scale for their values? Definitively, all have it therefore mistreatment shall never be allowed.
Education developed in many countries has had a positive impact yet not all people can adapt to another culture.
However, what we see today is a reluctance among certain populations to acknowledge their evidently backward approaches.
While language can be important—especially when someone lacks the skills to use modern technologies—what is more important than ever is inheritance.
We must all recognize our differences and commit to making changes gradually, in stages.
It is great learning that Agent jobs are created on different AI platforms.
