Ecce Homo in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: the impact on organisational change and algorithmic discrimination in HR
No full textThe paper explores some of the ethical, social and regulatory implications that arise as a result of the use of AI systems in organisational contexts and, in particular, in the human resources sector. Starting from the concept (at first religious, then philosophical and finally cultural/social) of Ecce Homo, it analyses the condition of the human being in the Age of Increasing Automation, also with the intention of shedding light on the danger that AI may not only redefine human identity, but also reduce the role of the individual (whatever the ontological nature of his - perhaps redefined - identity) to a mere spectator or, worse, a tool for data exploitation. The contribution focuses on the organisational impact of AI, with a focus on the transformation of workflows and robotic process automation (RPA), as well as the potential for decision-making optimisation through data-driven practices. Equally, ethical challenges such as human responsibility in algorithmic decision-making and the need to avoid discrimination are acknowledged, which naturally emerge as issues destined to have a significant impact in legal reality. The paper closes with an exposition of regulatory and non-regulatory solutions to counter the risks arising from the adoption of AI in organisations, promoting algorithmic audits, human-in-the-loop control and transparency in automated decisions. In conclusion, the authors emphasise the urgency of espousing a balanced cultural approach as soon as possible, i.e. one that is capable of harmonising technological innovation, respect for fundamental rights and social justice, highlighting the crucial role of European regulation in mitigating the criticalities of AI

An assessment of the impact of possible CAP reform scenarios on Romanian agriculture
No full textUsing a simplified model, with key-variable the prices of two different possible scenarios of CAP reform after 2013 (moderate and radical), this paper present a comparison between the price effects of implementation of each reform scenario at 2015 horizon on Romanian agriculture. This short analysis shows that, under the presented hypotheses, the net welfare effect, due to the price changes, for the selected products, is positive in both reform scenarios, yet greater in the case of the radical reform. Integrated in the large context of Romanian development, it seems that the influence of CAP reform upon agriculture and rural areas will be most likely a gradual one: an interpenetration between the two scenarios is foreseeable, starting with the moderate reform that will dominate the period around 2013, the reform measures acquiring a more radical character afterwards.CAP reform, Romania, welfare effects, Agricultural and Food Policy,
Rich, Sturmian, and trapezoidal words
No full textIn this paper we explore various interconnections between rich words, Sturmian words, and trapezoidal words. Rich words, first introduced by the second and third authors together with J. Justin and S. Widmer, constitute a new class of finite and infinite words characterized by having the maximal number of palindromic factors. Every finite Sturmian word is rich, but not conversely. Trapezoidal words were first introduced by the first author in studying the behavior of the subword complexity of finite Sturmian words. Unfortunately this property does not characterize finite Sturmian words. In this note we show that the only trapezoidal palindromes are Sturmian. More generally we show that Sturmian palindromes can be characterized either in terms of their subword complexity (the trapezoidal property) or in terms of their palindromic complexity. We also obtain a similar characterization of rich palindromes in terms of a relation between palindromic complexity and subword complexity
Spazi d'Artificio. Dialoghi sulla città temporanea
No full textSpazi d’artificio si occupa della quarta dimensione della città, ovvero di uno spazio cangiante per sua natura soggetto a ordini di lettura contraddittori e mutevoli rispetto all’epoca che attraversa. Il testo raccoglie voci provenienti da esperienze e ambiti culturali differenti, aprendo un dibattito interdisciplinare sui temi della città e, più in generale, del suo vivere. Dalla crisi del 2008 la lentezza del fare architettonico, rispetto alla rapidità dei processi che segnano la contemporaneità, individua spazi d’incertezza fisici e concettuali, mettendo in dubbio i principi e le convinzioni che hanno guidato la modernità fino a noi. Di fronte ad una disciplina che per attitudine predilige la permanenza, tempo e azione rappresentano gli elementi cardine attraverso cui sezionare e riciclare la città, ma anche lo sfondo di senso su cui riposizionare il progetto, pensando dispositivi spaziali pronti anche a spegnersi al volgere delle necessità o degli umori dei propri abitanti. Da qui l’esigenza di incontrarsi superando il limite della disciplina e tentando di aprire, attraverso la via del confronto, possibili orizzonti operativi, pratici quanto teorici. Come un fuoco artificiale può trasformare il quotidiano in meraviglioso, così l’architettura, anche attraverso materiali fragili ed effimeri, può inaspettatamente modificare significati e immagini ordinari dello spazio urbano. Spazi d’artificio sono dunque luoghi e architetture d’eccezione, punti di incontro tra esperienze dell’arte, della cultura e dell’economia capaci di prefigurare futuri possibili sullo sfondo durevole della città
