Thank you! Over time I've come to think that the metaphor we should use when thinking about the electric system is how we build bridges and buildings to sway and not snap in the wind, based on willow trees. Thus strength=good, but rigid=bad.
This is a really great piece, thank you! But why not conclude by advocating for the removal of the regulatory oversight though instead of merely improving it?
Thanks Glen! Given that my audience was a large group of mostly engineers working in firms and national labs to increase the interoperability and digitization in the electric system, I took a more moderate stance. Better to be thought provoking than to be radical and have them reject my remarks.
The effective regulation of complex systems in the context of technological advancements requires considerations of transparency, responsible innovations, system robustness, uncertainty, and the preservation of human values such as autonomy and privacy. Policymakers and regulators must navigate these factors to ensure ethical development, accountability, and public trust. Emphasizing transparency, promoting responsible innovations, fostering system robustness, addressing uncertainty, and safeguarding human values contribute to regulations that support technological advancements while continuing to protect individual and societal interests.
This is pure poetry. ❤️ “rigidifies”
