This   fifth year in a row that the country has been in that position. However, Scotland won a smaller share of overseas investment in 2016 than previously, with 10.7% of deals coming north of the border compared with 11.2% in 2015. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Scotland grew by 2.5% in 2016 - lower than the 7% increase recorded across the UK for that year and significantly down from 2015 when investment in Scotland grew by 51%. Mark Harvey, EY's senior partner in Scotland, said a "halo effect" from events such as the Commonwealth Games and the Ryder Cup may have resulted in "abnormally high" levels of investment in 2015.

Some learnings from Pythagoras which has stood the test of time :     http://voces-magicae.com/2009/11/03/the-symbolic-aphorisms-of-pythagoras/ I. Declining from the public ways, walk in unfrequented paths. By this it is to be understood that those who desire wisdom must seek it in solitude. The initiatic journey is one of isolation and exploration along paths taken by very few. II. Govern your tongue before all other things, following the gods. Here Pythagoras warns us that words have a tendency to misrepresent our true Self. If a thought or argument cannot be articulated clearly and properly without sentimental bias or emotional clouding, it is best to remain in silence. III. The wind blowing, adore the sound.

Skill is something you can cultivate, not merely something you're born with. You can become more creative, more intelligent, more athletic, more artistic, and more successful by focusing on the process, not the outcome.

Instead of worrying about writing a bestselling book, commit to the process of publishing your ideas on a consistent basis. Instead of worrying about getting six pack abs, commit to the process of eating healthy each day. It's not about the result, it's about building the identity of the type of person who gets to enjoy those results.  https://jamesclear.com/fixed-mindset-vs-growth-mindset?__s=xhzsacuinvzdh8d4rrjh

Frequently, when a technique reaches mainstream use, it is no longer considered artificial intelligence; this phenomenon is described as the  AI effect . [205] High-profile examples of AI include autonomous vehicles (such as  drones  and  self-driving cars ), medical diagnosis, creating art (such as poetry), proving mathematical theorems, playing games (such as Chess or Go), search engines (such as  Google search ), online assistants (such as  Siri ), image recognition in photographs, spam filtering, prediction of judicial decisions [206]  and targeting online advertisements. [204] [207] [208] With social media sites overtaking TV as a source for news for young people and news organisations increasingly reliant on social media platforms for generating distribution, [209]  major publishers now use artificial intelligence (AI) technology to post
