I'm getting deep into AI for productivity. The quality is much better now. What are you using the apps for? In VR, we see it in rendering and embodying avatars.

Current thoughts on future of tech... Apps are going away. Everything will go through an agent that you trust and that you have invested time to train on understanding you and your needs. The agent will broker and mediate your requests to other service providers that will compete for those bids. User loyalty will be based on trust + incentives. Earning models and personal data sovereignty are going to be hot topics for whether someone uses your agent or another. Some will care about privacy and some won't. I predict that Gen-Alpha - will rebel against their social media posting millennial parents by being furious about having their entire childhood posted online without their consent and they will be very savvy about internet revenue streams.- "If you want my data... pay me." and many will want their agent and related data lake to be local on some kind of new "AI hard wallet" that you choose whether to plug into other systems based on trust and incentives. Please pile on and lets check back in a few years to see how we did. ;).

Thank you Make it Cute and ABC News!
Amanda Seyfried and her childhood friends started "Make It Cute" to provide playhouses for kids. They are now partnering with the American Childhood Cancer Organization.
Seyfried tells @willganss: "It makes kids really happy, it makes parents really happy."

Every child has a dream, whether it's to become a model, athlete or doctor. But for many battling pediatric cancer, those dreams are put on hold. Together, we can create a world where every child can grow up and reach for the stars. s.acco.org/CCAM2024-Donate

Just as every child is unique, so each cancer diagnosis is unique as well. If your child has been diagnosed with a brain tumor, your child’s team will ensure that you understand all of these factors as they relate to your child. Learn more: acco.org/brain-cancers/

DIPG is a devastating brain tumor that affects children and robs them of functions like breathing and swallowing. With an average lifespan of only 9 months post-diagnosis, funding and research is needed. Today, read stories about warriors who faced this diagnosis.

I really appreciate this video. We built our business on the @MetaQuestVR by launching @TRIPPVR as the first subscription and mindfulness product on the Quest. It is a great device and our audience continues to grow on it. We are grateful to the Meta team for all of their support throughout these years.
So, Mark Zuckerberg finally tried the Apple Vision Pro and compared it to the Meta Quest 3
He says:
- Quest is 7x less expensive yet way more comfortable
- Quest is better for gaming, Xbox, YouTube
- "I'm surprised how much better Quest is better for majority of things"
My biggest takeaway:
The future of ads feels like his IG post.
This is real. No marketing talk, just saying it as it is.
Zuck's Apple Vision Pro feels like I'm listening to a tech reviewer not a guy worth $165B.
I feel like I'm having a convo in a living room with my friend Mark. You feel his enthusiasm.
Reminds me of the Kayne Superbowl ad. The guy spent $7M and took a 30s selfie video. Highly effective. He sold $19M of product within 24h of that video.
So my point is, if you're creating an "ad"
More living room, less high budget.
Be real.

Instead of spending countless hours in treatment clinics, kids should be spending countless hours with their friends and family. Help kids be kids. Donate today, because kids can't fight cancer alone: s.acco.org/ccam2023

#ChildhoodCancer is sometimes overlooked or misdiagnosed because symptoms are mistakenly attributed to more common injuries or illnesses. ACCO lists common symptoms on our website here: acco.org/diagnosis/
