Časté katastrofy posilují odolnost lidských populací

Studie 30 tisíc let historie lidských populací na 16 místech planety odhalila, že když jsou lidé více zkoušeni osudem, jsou pak jejich populace více odolné proti katastrofám, a když už jsou zasaženy neštěstím, snadněji se z toho dostanou. Co nás nezabije, to nás posílí, i když pro konkrétní lidi postižené neštěstím je to jen malá útěcha. http://www.osel.cz/13459-caste-katastrofy-posiluji-odolnost-lidskych-populaci.html

Your iPhone is about to become an ‘AI phone.’ What to expect from Apple’s iOS 18

After a long delay, Apple is gearing up, finally, to embrace artificial intelligence in a big way on the iPhone. The company is expected to show off new AI-powered features for the iPhone’s upcoming operating system, iOS 18, next month at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference.

The most prominent AI feature iOS 18 is likely to introduce is an Apple-built large language model (LLM)—the software that powers AI chatbots like ChatGPT. Many are speculating that Apple’s LLM will be i

Thanks to AI, we’re in the golden age of freelancing

As white-collar work gets increasingly automated, you might assume that freelancers would be the first to feel the impact. Indeed, researchers found a 21% decrease in the number of freelance job postings for automation-prone jobs after the rollout of ChatGPT. But there are two sides to this story. We’re witnessing a class stratification in modern freelancing. And, according to our latest research, highly-skilled

This Tesla team quietly built one of its superpowers. Why did Elon pull the plug on it?

Over the past year, Elon Musk notched a huge, slow-motion win. In a matter of months, one automaker after another signed up to adopt Tesla’s EV charging plug.

Why facial recognition technology makes these campus protests different from those in the past

The images on newscasts have been inescapable for the past several days. Protestors, presumed to be students, took over buildings at Columbia, facing off against police in riot gear, while on Emory University’s quadrangle, police pinned protestors to the ground, securing them with zip ties.

What made those images even more notable, though, are the lengths to which many of the protesters are going to in order to hide their identities. Keffiyehs and facemasks are commonplace. Some co

Holistic B2B Marketing: How To Drive Pipeline With A Silo-Free Strategy via @sejournal, @hethr_campbell

When it comes to B2B strategy, a holistic approach is the only approach.  Revenue organizations usually operate with siloed teams, and often expect a one-size-fits-all solution (usually buying clicks with paid media).  However, without cohesive brand, infrastructure, and pipeline generation efforts, they’re pretty much doomed to fail.  It’s just like rowing crew, where each member of the team must synchronize their movements to propel the boat forward – successful B2B marketing requires an in
