In TV and film production, extras may be at the greatest risk of AI replacement. I’ve been an extra for almost 4 years, and I think AI replacement could be a good thing. How AI Is Changing Acting AI is a huge sticking point in the current SAG-AFTRA and writers…

When I was little, my mom and I used to love strolling through the Park Plaza Mall in Oshkosh, WI. Crowds of shoppers bustled past neon signs for Younkers and Maurice’s. Today, all of that is gone. All that remains are a few tomblike offices. The once-crowded corridors are so…

From a report out overnight in CNBC: SoftBank Group chairman and CEO Masayoshi Son on Wednesday said that the Japanese investment firm plans to shift from “defense…

I was working late into the night, researching a very hot deal. It was 2021 and I was amped — until I found out I couldn’t get an allocation! I was really disappointed. The founder was first rate and the co-investors were Silicon Valley legends. Surely I was missing my…

With valuations down, this year’s investments should be some of the best ever. But many VC’s are riding AI startups right off a cliff. Total venture capital investment is down almost 90% from the peak, according to Carta. Late stage funding has practically ceased to exist. Even seed is down…

The year is 2166. I am 180 years old and my body is beginning to fail. Time to upload my memories. Advancements in biology could soon have us living much longer than ever before. But even if our bodies can’t reach immortality, perhaps our minds can. Imagine a future in…
