Many literatures will show that
the Philippines are one of the best academic and knowledge contributors not
only in Asia but also to the world. As a
given example, many Philippine agriculture scientists from the past until today
are well respected in the academe in terms of their created theorem and its
actual applications. But an emerging observation not only to the academics in
the Philippines but to the legislative bodies in the government house that
education in the country is deteriorating in terms of the application of
knowledge of fresh graduates to the actual modern business environment. As such in-effectiveness of human resource
towards the workplace (Modern Companies) will rationalize the lack of intellect
and knowledge of our Philippine professionals. The succeeding
dilemma will create a question as to how the knowledge of the present human
resource will be appropriate to the modern task procured by the most advance
International companies operating globally.
Given the actual brief scenario of
the present HR knowledge management system in the Philippines, we can
effectively relate the writings of the modern writers as to how knowledge and intellect
will evolve in the years to come affecting our human natural existence. One of the known theoretical Physicist is Michio
Kaku. His scientific analysis towards the
evolution of the existence of the human mind relates to the physical world and
its survival. Survival relates to the
daily hard work we do in order to find means to buy food and clothing for
example. In Michio’s book the Physics of
the future, portrays how mankind will upgrade the technologies as a means of
tools to hasten the daily logistics in all our endeavors. He even emphasizes the notion of modeling the
brain in which computers can alter the logic of human mind into an infinite and
progressive knowledge buildup which will eventually capture the level of reasoning
of an average human. These possibilities
will alter not only the thinking of Robots vs Humans but also the present jobs
of the people not only in the Philippines but throughout the world. A good example of this is the IBM’s Blue Gene
computer project that aims to simulate the activities of the brain. The Blue Gene project is in Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory in California.
Furthermore, the research of Henry Markram (Blue Brain Project) shows
that “it is not impossible to build a human brain and we can do it in ten
years.” If all of these will be used in
the business market of today I’m sure all jobs are useless. The next question that all public officials
should ask, where will all the new graduates find their jobs?
In a capitalist point of view all
these new technologies to alter human resource is a benefit to the business
organization were in machines are not subject to complains and organizational
relationship problems. The ultimate job
competition of our university graduates are not the valedictorians of MIT but
rather the machines that we all created.
It is called Man versus Machine.
More theoretical observations of
Michio focuses on the importance of human mind that human mind is the ultimate
tool of every human creature to control its habitats. The power of the mind can
move mountains. And some parts of our
human brains of today are not yet used in order for us to be “super gods”. If
you can remember the series “Heroes” that almost every character of that TV
series has its extra god like power superior of everyone. That kind of physical power is uncontrollable
due to the fact that it is discovered by accident according to the story of the
TV series. But nevertheless, the literature
of Michio suggests that mind control will transform our living in the
future. A simple example of mind control
using the fundamental senses are the speech recognition, touch sensors, heat
sensors etc. These are just the beginning
of the “smart cities” that we are introducing today. In the future we will just think of our wants
and our smartphones will order our basic needs in the super markets.
In the field of politics and
civilization another writer “Francis Fukuyama” portrays the gradual evolution
of world politics affecting civilization.
As a given example, when technology will change or technology will
upgrade, war strategy will change and the military who will use the modern war
machines must upgrade in knowledge in using the high technology weapon. During the time of Hitler, his main problem is
how to upgrade his tank with much power and agility. If Hitler will load a heavy canon then the
tank will move slower compared to a lighter canon. Technology versus technology the British
still won the war and it is all about technology and upgrades with the help of
the allied forces. In the book of
Francis Fukuyama suggests many political theories that may deem useful during
its time but not at present. Take for
example the tribal rule of law in Papua New Guinea and Solomon Islands, Francis
Fukuyama cited this scope of study during his thesis in Harvard University
studying the evolution of the government and rule of law of PNG and Solomon
Islands. It shows that many beliefs of
the tribes of that area is applicable during that time but not at present. Political and academic institutions will evolve
in a way how the overall stakeholders of a given country will perceive.
Therefore, from Pax Romana to Pax Americana we are all aiming for peace and
prosperity to all regions of the earth.
Another author who captures my
interest in reading is “Yuval Noah Harari” is an historian and a professor of
Oxford University and Hebrew University. His two books, “Sapiens a brief
Historyof Humankind” and “Homo Deus a Brief History of tomorrow” shows the
philosophical arguments and comments towards the natural human existence and
its gradual evolution affecting its habitats.
His two books will relatively adhere to the writings of Professor Michio
Kaku granting the fact that human mind is the ultimate weapon of the
future. Exhausting
the human mind capacity will do great things more powerful than the gods. In one
of his sub-topics suggest that “Organisms are Algorithm” which means that
algorithm is the most important aspect in our modern world today that will
serve as a useful tool in knowledge management and eventually AI that will
alter the present working task of our world citizens. Yuval
Noah Harari said that “Algorithm is arguably the single most important concept
in our world. If we want to understand
our life and our future, we should make every effort to understand what an
algorithm is, and how algorithms are connected with emotions.”
In the case of the Philippines and
the job market, nothing to worry because evolution is always right. Machines
will be more powerful in the future that at one point humans will integrate
with machines to stretch its full potentials in the job market. The biggest challenge of our educators and
the government is the procurement of jobs in congruent to the present acquired
knowledge and skills of the overall Philippine labor force. It is about time to consider between “Man,
Moment, and Machine”. Personally I would like to commend the efforts of Senator
Benigno “Bam” Aquino for giving importance in terms of Education specifically
Science and Technology applied to his civic programs in our country
Philippines.
