How Can We Matter

Icon Copyright: dubaifuture.ae The first part of my blog article Beyond Human Error: Software Bug Led to Flight AI171 Tragedy dated July 14, 2025 outlines why putting the focus squarely on the pilots and the aircraft's fuel switches will only mislead the investigation . In this article we explore the critical actions Boeing and regulators need to pursue using AI-driven Digital Twin Technology , going beyond the mechanical fuel switch checks currently mandated by the Indian regulator, DGCA . What is Digital Twin Technology Digital Twin Technology involves creating a virtual replica of a physical object, process, or system using real-time data from sensors and other sources. This digital representation allows for simulation, analysis, and prediction of the real-world counterpart's behavior, enabling informed decision-making and optimization across various industries. Digital Twin models are designed for testing real-time software, including critical subsystems like the Generator...

In a move that echoes the very sentiments of the Bard himself, Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has decreed that the familiar Jebel Ali Metro Station will be renamed as  National Paints , for the next decade. One can almost hear the RTA 's whispered ode to Shakespeare ! Copyright: Khaleej Times "What's in a name?"

I am a great fan of US President Donald Trump , who entered politics just ten years back and announced his candidature for the 2016 presidential race. On the eve of his swearing in as the 47th president of the United States , I shared my excitement with this Facebook post on January 20, 2025: Image Credit: The Web   "The world is about to experience a series of tectonic shifts that will reshape the global landscape starting tonight. The policy changes at the White House will affect every country in the world , including the US itself, impacting their governments, economies, migrant populations, and national security . Starting tomorrow, the world will enter a new era , fundamentally different from what we know today ." And this is exactly what we are witnessing today! Reshaping the Global Landscape It is undeniable that Trump is significantly transforming America and reshaping the global landscape at the speed of light. He has halted substantial USAID donations that were of...
