Pdr Quotes

PDR: Persons of Dubious Reality; refugees from the collective consciousness. Uninvited visitors who have fallen through the grating that divides the real, from the written. They arrive with their actions hardwired due to their repetitious existence and the older and more basic they are, the more rigidly they stick to them. Characters from cautionary tales are particularly mindless; they do what they do because it's what they've always done. And it's our job to stop them.

One probable near-term outcome of AI and a through-line in all three of the scenarios is the emergence of what I’ll call a “personal data record,” or PDR. This is a single unifying ledger that includes all of the data we create as a result of our digital usage (think internet and mobile phones), but it would also include other sources of information: our school and work histories (diplomas, previous and current employers); our legal records (marriages, divorces, arrests); our financial records (home mortgages, credit scores, loans, taxes); travel (countries visited, visas); dating history (online apps); health (electronic health records, genetic screening results, exercise habits); and shopping history (online retailers, in-store coupon use). In China, a PDR would also include all the social credit score data described in the last chapter.

The first of those, the preliminary design review, or PDR, usually takes place about four years, sometimes more, before the scheduled launch. The team has to convince the review board that it has solid concepts for all major aspects of the mission.

At a PDR, the team is expected to present a final or nearly final design of every element of the spacecraft. A thumbs-up from the review panel says, in effect, “Your designs look solid and we consider that the project is ready to be funded for building the spacecraft.” With a successful PDR, the project will then be “confirmed,” and NASA headquarters will provide enough funding to cover costs until the project is well along.
