i had an interesting conversation last night in beijing with chairman / ceo of one of the largest credit guarantee companies in china and he said he is most popular these days with solar, wind, l.e.d. lighting and other green tech clean tech companies as well as municipal officials because all want to implement green and clean tech but is constrained lack of investment budget and so look to borrow, with guarantee, and pay back loan with so freed up electricity cash flow
he figures china will take all the marbles in the lighting arena
given his company is backed by the right sort of people with the correct information, he says moves are afoot to intro a.i. enhanced full spectrum networking and monitoring of all, first in sichuan, embracing close circuit tv, biometrix for people as well as metrix for cars and such, not just around street corners, but also encompassing private networks (dept stores, bank atms, office building elevators, corridors, etc etc, etc etc, toll booths)
surely such a wonderful system, once bugs worked out, can be exported to america, where there is a need for geewhizbang i.t. to link up with google voice (voice transcription, messaging, mail), google map location-ing, and remote controlled flying drones that listen in on street level conversations, as well as sold to uk, where spy satellites already survey country estates for property tax enhancement opportunities
brave new world
let us watch n brief |
