May 1, 2023 /Technology/ — The likely reasons for the Metaverse losing its shine is that there is a new kid on the blockchain. And if you’re always chasing shiny new objects, this latest one is in many ways more impressive as it’s much easier to play with. Even as the Metaverse appears to be losing its lustre for fans, AI (Artificial Intelligence) is not turning into a niche platform. It is a mainstream technology that is already being used in a variety of industries. In fact, the global AI market is expected to reach $390.9 billion by 2025. Continue reading →

April 28, 2023 /Economy/ — Generative AI is a type of artificial intelligence that is capable of generating text, images, and other content that is indistinguishable from human-created output. This technology has the potential to automate a wide range of tasks that are currently performed by humans, including customer service, data entry, and even creative writing.

The Goldman Sachs report predicts that generative AI could automate 18% of work globally, with the effects felt most deeply in advanced economies. This is because advanced economies tend to have a higher concentration of white-collar jobs, which are more susceptible to automation. Continue reading →

It is a cliche that not knowing history makes one repeat it. As many people have also pointed out, the only thing we learn from history is that we rarely learn anything from history. People engage in land wars in Asia over and over. They repeat the same dating mistakes, again and again. But why does this happen? And will technology put an end to it?

April 19, 2023 /Technology/ — A large language model (LLM) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that is trained on a massive amount of text data. This data can be anything from books and articles to social media posts and code. LLMs are able to learn the statistical relationships between words and phrases, which allows them to generate text, translate languages, write different kinds of creative content, and answer your questions in an informative way. LLMs can be used for a variety of tasks, including: Continue reading →

April 19, 2023 /Sports/ — The Schumacher family is likely planning legal action against the German magazine for a number of reasons. First, the interview was published without the family’s consent. Second, the interview is likely to be seen as an invasion of Schumacher’s privacy. Third, the interview could be seen as misleading or fraudulent, as it gives the impression that Schumacher has given an interview when he has not.

The legal implications of this case are still unclear. It is possible that the family could sue the magazine for copyright infringement, invasion of privacy, or fraud. It is also possible that the magazine could be fined or even face criminal charges.
