Big Data is a quan­ti­ta­tive tool that mea­sures and depicts cor­re­la­tions, com­par­isons and fre­quen­cies. Does it pro­vide us with solu­tions, or does it mere­ly serve to indi­cate where a solu­tion might be found, owing to its eval­u­a­tion. How can Big Data serve as a con­struc­tive solu­tion, as well as aid­ing and sup­port­ing the human brain?

In her Duet inter­view with neu­ro­sci­en­tist and best sell­ing author Prof. Maren Urn­er, Dr Cal­daro­la, author of the recent book Big Data and Law, talks with her on the pos­si­bil­i­ties of con­struc­tive crit­i­cism and news cov­er­age in rela­tion to Big Data.

While the indus­tri­al rev­o­lu­tion ini­ti­at­ed the process of automat­ing pro­duc­tion lines, dig­i­tal­i­sa­tion and the con­comi­tant appear­ance of Big Data, Indus­try 4.0, AI, and so forth will prob­a­bly com­plete it. In your book – Das Seerosen­prinzip1 – you have described in great detail how indi­vid­ual respon­si­bil­i­ty is dis­ap­pear­ing with the advent of ever-increas­ing mech­a­ni­sa­tion. Should we wor­ry that with greater automa­tion via the dig­i­tal rev­o­lu­tion respon­si­bil­i­ty will van­ish com­plete­ly or per­haps even be hand­ed over to robots?

In her Duet inter­view with Daniel Goeude­vert, the French man of let­ters, auto­mo­bile indus­try man­ag­er and busi­ness con­sul­tant, Dr Cal­daro­la, author of the recent book Big Data and Law, dis­cuss­es the mean­ing of respon­si­bil­i­ty in the dig­i­tal age.

Dig­i­tal­i­sa­tion has been mak­ing an increas­ing num­ber of pro­fes­sions more effi­cient than ever. Not only are they to be auto­mat­ed in the future, but this process is already under­way: faster, eco­nom­i­cal in terms of staff, more pre­cise…. What is going on in the tax con­sult­ing and audit­ing sec­tors? How are the many process­es at work being man­aged and direct­ed by means of Big Data, dig­i­tal sig­na­tures and AI? What pro­fes­sion­al pro­file will this sec­tor be requir­ing? Is unem­ploy­ment a threat or will a new­found free­dom allow for oth­er goals and tasks to final­ly be tack­led? What might those new aims be?

In her Duet inter­view with Chris­t­ian Klein, tax and audit­ing con­sul­tant, Dr Cal­daro­la, author of the recent book Big Data and Law, chats on recent devel­op­ments in the field of tax con­sult­ing and auditing.
