But one of the things that's really important when we're thinking about stem cells is that obviously stem cells can be many different things, and they want to be many different things, and so we want to make sure that the environment we put them into has enough information so that they can become the right sort of specialist tissue.

But we want to make them have enough information that we can get the cells to do what we want, but not be so complex as to make it difficult to get to clinic.

And if we zoom in again, we see that the cells are actually surrounded by a 3D matrix of nano-scale fibers, and they give a lot of information to the cells.

And so one of the things you can think about doing is actually making scaffolds with slightly different dimensions that might be able to surround your cells in 3D and give them a little bit more information.

Because it's exactly the same mechanism that's happening across most of our digital services, where it's impossible to know where this information is coming from.

I'd pump him for information, I'm mentally scribbling notes for the stories I plan to write.

Now there is much to gain and benefit from this massive analysis of personal information, or big data, but there are also complex tradeoffs that come from giving away our privacy.

We start with an observation which, in my mind, has become clearer and clearer in the past few years, that any personal information can become sensitive information.

We started from social media data, we combined it statistically with data from U.S. government social security, and we ended up predicting social security numbers, which in the United States are extremely sensitive information.

So if you combine the two studies together, then the question becomes, can you start from a face and, using facial recognition, find a name and publicly available information about that name and that person, and from that publicly available information infer non-publicly available information, much more sensitive ones which you link back to the face?

[27% of subjects' first 5 SSN digits identified (with 4 attempts)] But in fact, we even decided to develop an iPhone app which uses the phone's internal camera to take a shot of a subject and then upload it to a cloud and then do what I just described to you in real time: looking for a match, finding public information, trying to infer sensitive information, and then sending back to the phone so that it is overlaid on the face of the subject, an example of augmented reality, probably a creepy example of augmented reality.

We may like to believe that the future with so much wealth of data would be a future with no more biases, but in fact, having so much information doesn't mean that we will make decisions which are more objective.

In another experiment, we presented to our subjects information about a potential job candidate.

We included in this information some references to some funny, absolutely legal, but perhaps slightly embarrassing information that the subject had posted online.

Now interestingly, among our subjects, some had posted comparable information, and some had not.

Paradoxically, it was the group who had posted similar information, an example of moral dissonance.

Imagine that you are the H.R. director of a certain organization, and you receive résumés, and you decide to find more information about the candidates.

Therefore, you Google their names and in a certain universe, you find this information.

Or in a parallel universe, you find this information.

We created Facebook profiles, manipulating traits, then we started sending out résumés to companies in the U.S., and we detected, we monitored, whether they were searching for our candidates, and whether they were acting on the information they found on social media.

Now marketers like us to believe that all information about us will always be used in a manner which is in our favor.

Now, that movie is set in 2054, about 40 years from now, and as exciting as that technology looks, it already vastly underestimates the amount of information that organizations can gather about you, and how they can use it to influence you in a way that you will not even detect.

Now the problem is that the current policy mechanisms we have to protect ourselves from the abuses of personal information are like bringing a knife to a gunfight.

You can tell people what you are going to do, and then you still nudge them to disclose arbitrary amounts of personal information.

So in yet another experiment, this one with students, we asked them to provide information about their campus behavior, including pretty sensitive questions, such as this one.

Fifteen seconds were sufficient to have the two groups disclose the same amount of information, as if the second group now no longer cares for faculty reading their answers.

So I do believe that one of the defining fights of our times will be the fight for the control over personal information, the fight over whether big data will become a force for freedom, rather than a force which will hiddenly manipulate us.

Africa's markets are weak not only because of weak infrastructure in terms of roads and telecommunications, but also because of the virtual absence of necessary market institutions, such as market information, grades and standards, and reliable ways to connect buyers and sellers.
