This is wild! Here's China respectfully explaining there's no great power rivalry with Britain, as Britain is no longer significant 😳

The best takedown?

“British government should not overestimate its impact on the global scene”.

Brutal yet probably the most polite insult I have seen in a while.

On the other hand, it took Romans almost 100 years to realize that Rome fell in 476...

This Nikon ad is pure marketing genius. 
 
AI is THE existential threat facing the photography industry. 
 
Photorealistic images generated by AI prompts are more powerful and popular than ever. 
 
Nikon's response? 
 
"Don't give up on the real world". 
 
A series of real photographs with incredible, almost unbelievable natural beauty. 
 
Each image is accompanied by an imaginative 'prompt' that describes the surreal scene, as if it were generated by AI. 
 
Brilliant.

Would you pay for an AI powered Web Browser? Or is Google going to same way as the Yellow Pages? 🗑️


🤖 According to the Financial Times, Google is planning to charge for AI-enhanced internet searches, a game-changing shift in its revenue strategy.

💸 This move is driven by the high costs of AI, suggesting a future where premium subscription models become the norm in tech.
🔄 Competitors are already experimenting with similar models, from subscription tiers to free offerings tied to other services.

➡ My take: I doubt we will still be using web browsers to find websites in the future.

📒 The Google model of Search is under pressure.  They are the next Yellow Pages (an outdated means to search information). 

Your personal AI will guide you in the search of a solution and the information in the world, provided by AI agents of solution suppliers.  

💬 What's your take on paying for AI-enhanced searches? Would you subscribe?

Public speaking, planning a project, selling to people.  I bet you are terrible at many things.  

We all are.  I have many weaknesses. 

📸 For example, I am terrible at taking pictures. 

I'm fine with it. I have other talents.   

🌈 People recognize those talents, for AI it seems to be a bit harder to spot my talents. 

🛫 Linkedin AI recommended these jobs for me: Real Estate photographer or "Flying Spanner" (no idea what that is) 

➡ Let's keep humans in the loop to train our AI models.  Especially when human assessment and judgement is required.

Good luck to Brickshot and Brussels Airlines in their search for the perfect candidate.  Apply now!

Adobe and OpenAI's Sora are partnering to revolutionize video editing forever.

Here's what you need to know:

Adobe just introduced a slew of new AI capabilities coming to Adobe Premiere Pro, aimed at transforming video production — while also teasing third-party integrations and a Firefly Video model in development.

-New AI-powered tools in Premiere Pro will enable users to extend video clips, add/remove objects from scenes, and generate B-roll footage using prompts.

-A new proprietary AI model called Firefly Video will join Adobe's existing lineup of Firefly models for image, vector, design, and text effects.

-Adobe is also working on integrating third-party AI models from companies like OpenAI, Runway, and Pika Labs into the platform.

-AI-powered audio editing features will be available in May, including intelligent fade handles, category tagging, and enhanced waveforms.

The demo video shows a wild look into the AI-powered future of video production, where edits are just a prompt away.

The third-party integrations also reflect Adobe’s desire to remain the editing platform of choice, providing optionality that gives users the best experience — even if that isn’t always Adobe’s model.

Well done by the Adobe team!

Elon Musk presented a plan to create a fully sustainable Earth with abundance of ressources, without using fossil fuels. 

🌿 Key message: it is feasible.  


Here are some key elements to the transformation: 

🔋 Transitioning to Sustainability Without Sacrifice

🌱 There's a viable path to a sustainable Earth that doesn't compromise our current lifestyle or energy needs.
📈 This future can support a population much larger than the current 8 billion sustainably.

⚡ Current Energy System Inefficiencies

🛢️ Over 80% of our global energy comes from fossil fuels, with much of it lost as heat or during transmission.
🚗 For instance, typical gasoline cars use less than 20% of the energy from oil for motion, highlighting the inefficiency.

🌞 Benefits of Electrification

💡 Electrifying our energy systems can halve our total energy requirements due to superior efficiency.
🚀 From electric vehicles to heating systems, electrification presents a more efficient use of energy.

🔧 Infrastructure and Technological Innovations Needed

🏭 Transition requires large-scale deployment of renewable energy, electric vehicles, advanced battery storage, and heat pumps.
🛠️ Strategic investments in these areas are crucial for a seamless transition.

💰 Economic and Environmental Benefits

💵 The financial outlay for this transition is a small fraction of global GDP and uses minimal land, ensuring low ecological impact.
🌐 Efficient resource use and sufficient mineral availability ensure sustainability without depleting Earth's assets.

🚀 This is a rallying cry for increased efforts and investments in sustainable technologies. The path is clear, feasible, and beneficial.

➡ Check out the link in the first comment for the full video.

How likely do you think we will be able to execute the plan?
