Knowledge and the Post-Capitalist Society

"Knowledge is power, which is why people who had it in the past often tried to make a secret of it. In post-capitalism, power comes from transmitting information to make it productive, not from hiding it."

--Drucker, P.F. (1995). "The Post-Capitalist Executive," in Managing in a Time of Great Change, Penguin, New York, NY.

On Intelligence: 'Artificial' and 'Real'

"[I]t is rather ironic that the application of artificial intelligence to manufacturing is becoming a popular topic. If intelligence is so helpful to manufacturing in artificial form, then why have the benefits of the real intelligence overlooked so far." (Safizadeh, M.H.)
