The report and this video really demonstrates the huge opportunity both Web3 and AI (amongst many other exciting tech) will really help fuel the future of the automotive industry! Huge opportunities, exciting times and incredible insights. Many thanks to David Palmer Ben Boutcher-West and Will Judge for joining us in the studio and to our other fantastic contributors and Thunder and Lightning Films Ltd.

    In 2008, Airbnb faced bankruptcy as a start-up struggling to make $200 a week. So they emailed 7 Silicon Valley investors asking for $150,000 in return for a 10% stake. 5 rejected them. 2 didn’t even bother responding. Today, that 10% stake in Airbnb is worth $10 billion. Brian Chesky shared the responses in his blog, asking people to remember them the next time an idea of theirs is rejected. You can read them here👇🏻

    Are you ready for the next big gadget?! "I’m just going to call it: we’ll look back on April 2024 as the beginning of a new technological era" is one hell of an opening line of this article! Yep, welcome to the era of Alexa on steroids. If you thought speaking into a grey tube to set a timer for baking a cake was impressive then these gadgets take it to the next level. They answer your questions, automate your tasks and basically make your life more immersive and 'easier' because they're enhanced via a series of language models that really help narrow down (in the words of the Spice Girls) what you really, really want! But the question is, do you need it, are you bothered by it or are you happy with one more or one less gadget in your lives? #AI #AInews #Futuretech https://lnkd.in/eaKw-2Rj

    The rumour mill is turning! If you've enjoyed using ChatGPT and GPT-4 then get ready because according to Business Insider, we should be expecting OpenAI to release GPT-5 around the middle of the year!! Supposedly it will include: Performance Enhancements: GPT-5 is reported to be "materially better" than its predecessor, with enhancements demonstrated in specific applications for businesses. New Features: Sam Altman CEO of Open AI commented, after trying GPT-5, that it's a big step up. He also noted that GPT-5 can enable AI agents to carry out tasks on their own. Safety Protocols: OpenAI is concluding the training of GPT-5, with upcoming safety tests and external "red teaming" to ensure the model's reliability before public release. Why it should matter to your business: "GPT-5 enables AI agents to perform tasks autonomously", which gives us a signal that there's a decent leap in AI's ability to work without our (human) input which will then widen its overall scope to much more complex tasks! So for our businesses we could use AI to independently perform data analysis, coding, report writing, email management, and much more. Robots could also take on those physical tasks that we're used to doing, streamlining productivity and ultimately altering how we work! Exciting or terrifying - you decide! #technews #AI #AItools
