Last generation protests by Kai Neumann

I have considered the "Letzte Generation" protests to be too harsh thinking that people as a reaction wouldn't sympathize with protesters and their cause anymore. But realizing how people react with hate just to stay in their comfort zone (and because of the fear of change) now shows me that like in the early days of F4F it takes the fact viral that we need drastic change and unmasks those who still don't get it. We need to change from 9 - 11 tons of CO2 eq per person per year to around 1 - 2 tons - no m...

EU Regulations - 13 factors to show their benefits by Kai Neumann

Just a small model to explore the current discussion on the Omnibus procedure in the EU, the idea to have less regulation and fewer restrictions to produce as cheap as possible. I have modeled more details in other models but this one here shows the fact that a lot what we consider being costs are actually investments with an increased domestic value creation - though even catastrophes add to the BIP unless you count the decrease in productivity (...).

Why so many autocracies? by Kai Neumann

a fairly trivial, descriptive model as a reaction to some recent studies on the rise of autocracies. on a closer look it reveals that reckless people have the levers to trigger reinforcing feedback loops of policies against the benefits of all. the balancing feedback loops that can cause a regime change face these levers as obstacles. and even if there is no control of media, there are charismatic leaders, and there are free elections - the people in hard times still remain susceptible to wrong memes. so...

By ChatGPT: Wölfe und Rehe – quantitatives Populationsmodell by Kai Neumann

Hier ein quantitatives Modell, das ChatGPT direkt als .imm-Datei erstellt hat: Kannst du ein quantitatives iMODELER Modell (.imm-Datei) erstellen, mit Stocks und Flows zum Beispiel zur Entwicklung einer Population von Wölfen und Rehen? Worked for 22s Ja, das kann ich. Für ein wirklich direkt lauffähiges quantitatives .imm-Modell brauche ich allerdings einmal eine vorhandene iMODELER-Datei, die bereits Bestände, Flüsse und Formeln enthält. Die frühere Trinkwasser-Datei zeigt zwar das offene .imm-Format, i...

Qualitative Example Model for LLMs (like ChatGPT) to learn the .imm format by Kai Neumann

This model is just a dummy model that features the major functionality for qualitative modeling so that an AI can read and understand the .imm file format (it is an JSON format, easy to read and write). Note: there will be another template showing the quantitative features. You can download the .imm file via the "D" on the background of the model. The objective is that you can ask your AI to develop an iMODELER model or you can upload an iMODELER model and ask the AI to improve it or use it. It is a grou...

Erfolg mit guten Mitarbeitern by Dirk Schink

Dies ist ein Mini-Modell, welche Faktoren um die Frage kreisen: Warum sind Mitarbeiter/innen (MAs) wichtig für meinen Erfolg und wie binde, entwickle und finde ich "gute" MAs? Das Modell erhebt keinen Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit. Die reale Welt kann man sowieso nicht abbilden. Die Grundmuster werden auf Basis der Ursache-Wirkungs-Modellierung mit der Know-Why-Methode und dem iModeler jedoch schnell transparent. Für weitere Frage stehe ich Ihnen gerne zur Verfügung. Dirk Schink Brater - Projektleiter - C...

The rise of resistance against climate policies by Kai Neumann

Whether it is Germany's "Heizungsgesetz" or the European Union's "Renaturation Law" there is a certain pattern how resistance evolves. Recently I was on workation sailing the Baltic Sea observing lots of signs of movements against the implementation of protected natural habitats in the Baltic Sea. The fishing 'industry', the tourism, and the water sports enthusiasts all seem united in their protest against the protection of the Baltic Sea. Fact is, that the Baltic Sea is in an extremely poor condition ca...
