Do not save what is left after spending but spend what is left after saving. —Warren Buffet—Our spending habits are shaped by our upbringing, our values, ethics, our view of life, security, and one’s expectations of the future. However, the mode of payment also has an impact on the spending patterns of an individual. It is clear that the introduction of digital payments has affected spending patterns and subsequently savings habits. People generally aren’t getting better at saving through technology they are getting better at spending. The case examines and highlights the behavior of individuals who use cash and cashless digital payments in conjunction with their respective spending and saving patterns.
不要把花完剩下的钱存起来,而要把存完剩下的钱花掉。-沃伦·巴菲特我们的消费习惯是由我们的成长经历、价值观、道德观、人生观、安全感以及对未来的期望所塑造的。然而,支付方式也会影响个人的消费模式。很明显,数字支付的引入影响了消费模式,进而影响了储蓄习惯。一般来说,人们并没有通过科技变得更善于储蓄,而是变得更善于消费。该案例考察并强调了使用现金和无现金数字支付的个人行为,以及他们各自的支出和储蓄模式。

The case focusses on Assessment and Qualification Alliance, one of England’s largest exam boards, and its evaluation of whether Artificial Intelligence (AI) could be deployed, in principle, for marking high-stakes assessments. At a time when generative AI, such as ChatGPT, has gained popularity, the case offers insights into the challenges and risks of algorithmic decision making and algorithmic fairness, such as accuracy and explainability. The case allows students to explore the role of ethics when developing an AI-based tool in an area that they all know very well: Most students will have had to sit high-stakes assessments in the past and are still likely to be assessed on an ongoing basis as a current student. Students will thus be able to relate to the case and have their own stake(s) and opinion(s) about whether they would want to be assessed by AI. The case is also more broadly applicable in raising general awareness of the challenges and potential risks involved when using AI for decision making and it encourages students to consider the wider consequences for all stakeholders that are triggered by the use of digital technology.
该案件的焦点是英国最大的考试委员会之一的评估和资格联盟,以及它对原则上是否可以部署人工智能(AI)来标记高风险考试的评估。在像ChatGPT这样的生成式人工智能越来越受欢迎的时候,这个案例提供了对算法决策和算法公平性的挑战和风险的洞察,比如准确性和可解释性。这个案例让学生们在一个他们都非常熟悉的领域开发基于人工智能的工具时,探索道德的作用:大多数学生过去都必须参加高风险的评估,现在仍然可能作为一名学生持续接受评估。因此,学生将能够与案例联系起来,并对他们是否希望被人工智能评估有自己的利害关系和意见。该案例也更广泛地适用于提高人们对使用人工智能进行决策时所涉及的挑战和潜在风险的普遍认识,并鼓励学生考虑使用数字技术对所有利益相关者产生的更广泛后果。

The right-to-repair movement is a consumer rights movement that supports people’s freedom to repair and customize their gadgets, such as smartphones. To make diagnostic tools, repair manuals, and replacement parts available to the public, the movement continues to push for laws requiring manufacturers to do so. The movement, supported by legislation, is gaining traction as a fundamental human right. On the other hand, the right-to-repair movement received different responses from smartphone manufacturers, including Apple, Samsung, Google, and Nokia. This article describes the evolving market conditions and examines how various brands have reacted to the recent global tide. The article contributes to the efforts toward United Nations Sustainable Development Goals on several accounts since right-to-repair laws help reduce electronic waste and promote sustainable consumption.
维修权运动是一项消费者权利运动,支持人们自由维修和定制他们的电子产品,如智能手机。为了向公众提供诊断工具、维修手册和替换零件,该运动继续推动要求制造商这样做的法律。在立法的支持下,这项运动作为一项基本人权正在获得越来越多的支持。另一方面,苹果、三星、谷歌、诺基亚等智能手机制造商对“修理权”运动的反应各不相同。本文描述了不断变化的市场状况,并探讨了各种品牌如何应对最近的全球潮流。这篇文章在几个方面为实现联合国可持续发展目标做出了贡献,因为维修权法有助于减少电子垃圾和促进可持续消费。

The SigmaTel case deals with sales and distribution, channel management, and technology adoption issues. SigmaTel, part of a large and diversified corporate conglomerate, is the largest telecom operator in India. It entered a highly competitive market and quickly rose to the top spot on the back of cheap data and call rates and a strong 4G network. The case is set in 2021 when the company implements Distributor Management System (DMS)—a technology solution to streamline distributor operations. The primary decision point that the case protagonist, Sanjay Prakash, Head of Sales at SigmaTel, Delhi, faces is how to proceed in light of unexpected challenges that the initiative is facing. Should he recommend that SigmaTel proceed with the rollout? If yes, then how does he overcome distributor resistance and conflict? Failure to adopt DMS can impact the strategic business goals of SigmaTel.

In this case, we describe the journey of Finance Kaart, a fintech start-up with a vision to serve India’s financially excluded customer segments. We explore the strategic options available to the start-up and its founder’s rationale for developing an online marketplace business model focused on Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise customers in small towns of India. The case further explores how India’s fintech ecosystem enabled frugal innovation by start-ups such as Finance Kaart. In a supportive ecosystem, Finance Kaart followed a partnership-driven approach but needed to address investor concerns regarding its “over-dependence on the partners” that arguably limited its profit potential. We conclude by discussing how Finance Kaart planned to overcome the challenges to its growth strategy by transforming it into a Neo-bank.
在这种情况下,我们描述了Finance Kaart的旅程,这是一家金融科技初创公司,其愿景是为印度金融排斥的客户群体提供服务。我们探讨了创业公司可用的战略选择及其创始人开发在线市场商业模式的基本原理,该模式专注于印度小城镇的微型、中小型企业客户。该案例进一步探讨了印度的金融科技生态系统如何通过Finance Kaart等初创企业实现节俭创新。在一个支持性的生态系统中,Finance Kaart遵循合作伙伴驱动的方式,但需要解决投资者对其“过度依赖合作伙伴”的担忧,这可能会限制其盈利潜力。最后,我们将讨论Finance Kaart计划如何通过将其转变为一家新银行来克服其增长战略面临的挑战。

Innovative strategy in e-grocery: The future of retail outlets? 电子杂货的创新策略:零售网点的未来?
Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2023-03-31 DOI: 10.1177/20438869231165239
Sridevi Gopakumar, Madhava Priya Dananjayan
Grocery purchases via e-commerce channels have risen substantially within a few months as a consequence of the COVID pandemic’s influence on consumer behavior. Traditional commerce has been transformed by the internet, benefiting both businesses and buyers. A rise in the number of people using the internet and their smartphones has been a major driver for expansion in the e-commerce sector. To accurately gauge the future of online grocery shopping, it is important to have a firm grasp on the factors that have contributed to its rise in popularity. This case study attempts to investigate and asses consumers adoption of e-grocery platforms by using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology model (UTAUT) and is distinctive in that it incorporates a situational factor-COVID and a customer centricity component into the UTAUT 2 model in order to determine the drivers of users’ behavioral intention toward e-grocery purchase in India.
由于新冠疫情对消费者行为的影响,在几个月内,通过电子商务渠道购买杂货的数量大幅增加。互联网改变了传统的商业模式,商家和买家都从中受益。使用互联网和智能手机的人数的增加一直是电子商务领域扩张的主要推动力。为了准确地预测网上杂货购物的未来,重要的是要牢牢把握促使其流行起来的因素。本案例研究试图通过使用技术接受和使用统一理论模型(UTAUT)来调查和评估消费者对电子杂货平台的采用情况,其独特之处在于,它将情境因素- covid和客户中心组件纳入UTAUT 2模型,以确定印度用户对电子杂货购买行为意愿的驱动因素。

In 2016, the Australian welfare agency Centrelink implemented an information system to automate the identification and recollection of welfare overpayments. Such algorithmic decision-making systems are increasingly leveraged to improve the efficiency of public administration. However, Centrelink’s scheme went horribly wrong: the system, branded as “Robodebt” by the popular media, generated debt notices that were inaccurate and based on insufficient evidence. Numerous vulnerable citizens who received the debt notices suffered a great deal of distress. While public controversy ensued, the ruling government continued to defend the flawed system until a court decision ruled it unlawful in 2019. This teaching case challenges one to analyze what went wrong in the implementation and management of the Robodebt system through the lens of sociotechnical systems.
2016年,澳大利亚福利机构Centrelink实施了一个信息系统,可以自动识别和回收福利超额支付。越来越多地利用这种算法决策系统来提高公共行政的效率。然而,Centrelink的计划出现了可怕的错误:这个被大众媒体称为“机器人债务”的系统产生的债务通知是不准确的,而且证据不足。许多收到债务通知的弱势公民遭受了极大的痛苦。尽管公众争议随之而来,但执政政府继续为这一有缺陷的制度辩护,直到2019年法院裁定其非法。这个教学案例挑战人们通过社会技术系统的视角来分析机器人债务系统的实施和管理中出了什么问题。

Internet of Things in Telecommunications: From the Perspective of an Emerging Market 电信物联网:一个新兴市场的视角
Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2023-03-14 DOI: 10.1177/20438869231163601
M. Jabeen, Khurram Ishaq
This paper presents an exploratory case study of the Internet of things in telecommunications to analyze IoT technology in the telecom sector. It examines the IoT value in telecom and discusses the role of telecom operators across the value chain. It also presents a case analysis of IoT adoption in an emerging market of Pakistan to explore the IoT landscape in Pakistan and analyzes the IoT market positioning among telecom operators. It presents the business models and strategies which the telecom operators are following and analyzes the cost and benefits of IoT technology. It also discusses the IoT challenges faced by telecom operators during the adoption of IoT. In an emerging country like Pakistan, telecoms are adopting Internet of things technology, a novel, and real-time phenomenon.
