Written from the perspective of a former corporate researcher, Alfred Boediman dissects the intersection of artificial intelligence and education with logic and local pragmatism. The title itself—REW(aI)RED!—is a philosophical provocation: Are we being transformed to learn better, or are we being reprogrammed to obey?
Dr. Alfred Boediman is a seasoned venture capitalist, financial mathematician, and deep-tech strategist who has spent decades at the intersection of finance, technology, and sustainability—constantly questioning norms and rewriting the rules. From leading impact investment funds in Southeast Asia to pioneering neuro-statistical models for financial markets, he blends rigorous data analytics with behavioral insights to anticipate macroeconomic shifts before they happen. A trusted advisor to multi-family offices, former top executive at Samsung Electronics, and adjunct professor at the University of Chicago, his interests span from cognitive AI to creating value from waste. With sharp logic and extensive experience, he challenges conventional wisdom across his 16 books, which explore investment, risk management, entrepreneurship, AI in education, and fundamental science, including physics, demonstrating that even waste has its economy.
