โšก This week was a good year in AIGPT4 was released and yes, it's way better than chatGPT up to this point.I said it before and I'll say it again: it doesn't matter, if this is a real artificial intelligence or not -if it outperforms 99.9% of all people in terms of raw knowledge, problem solving capability and creativity you're screwed.Now my goal here is to be future positive:one way to learn to live with AI at your side as a knowledge worker is ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ป ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐˜ ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ด๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ป๏ฟฝ

Did you know that our solar system is not static in space?

AI Technology

โšก Did you know that our solar system is not static in space?And now that you know: what do you think where we're going?Does the thought of us flying on a huge ball of molten rock with a thin stable outer layer through a space we can't really explain frighten you?And if yes, how do you cope with the fear? Let me know, asking for a friend ;)#futurepositive #mindset #technology

In Thailand elephants have figured out how to use their "right of way" to snatch a quick snack in the form of sugar canes from passing trucksIMO a great example of out of the box thinking:a rule that was once made for a different purpose is repurposed for something else ๐Ÿ˜…#innovation #futurepositive #creativity #culture #mindset #entrepreneurship #future

Finally an argument between Paul and me: Paul seriously thinks entrepreneurship can be standardized

AI Corporate Innovation Startup

Finally an argument between Paul and me: Paul seriously thinks entrepreneurship can be standardized, that especially the early phase of a venture is "just craftsmanship". As a Co-Preneur I of course see it differently: experience shows that every (corporate) startup is different. Some aspects are repeatable, but the devil is in the details and without a dash of entrepreneurship, grit and a good helping of creativity you won't get things done. That's why I also (no longer) believe in St

Metaverse is dead, long live the Metaverse.

AI Design

Metaverse is dead, long live the Metaverse.What most non-gamers who want to build a Metaverse don't get is: you have to build an engaging game first, THEN the user interface (like VR goggles) to make it fully emergable.Star Citizen is an example for this kind of game (World of Warcraft, which just turned 19 years old, is another).Look at this game trailer which is a 25 minutes one-shot. No loading screens. Fully explorable galaxies from the deepest caves to the furthest stars.This is not a game,

AI Startup

The startup studio model is difficult because a startup studios main task is to find "founders without an idea" and "ideas" and combine the two. Only then the studio can justify taking a larger share of the new company.And taking a larger share is necessary for the startup studio economy to work out at all."Founders with an idea" don't need startup studios. They can just go with normal VC for their first round.

"Fuck it and ship it!" vs. Attention to detail?

AI Corporate Innovation Innovation

"Fuck it and ship it!" vs. Attention to detail? Surprisingly, we find: both can make sense, even if that's a rather contrarian take in the world of innovation. In episode 3 we also discuss DriveNow, Car2Go and ShareNow as an example of successful corporate innovation that perhaps should have been buried much earlier.

No matter how fucked up a job is, you can still have a great culture.

AI Culture Customer Experience

No matter how fucked up a job is, you can still have a great culture. And vice versa.At the post office: normally, people with a grumpy face handling packages. The faster Iโ€™m back out again, the better.But not so at this privately owned post office in the city: people are friendly, having a laugh with each other, joking with the customers.Whatโ€™s different? The job is the same after all.Somehow those employees managed to get their mindset on a positive trajectory.On the other hand: in the last fe
