Photo story: a family trip to Chattanooga
Forested trails, hidden waterfalls, sprawling parks, urban rock climbing, and a retro pinball museum—Chattanooga, Tennessee, never ceases to surprise and delight visitors. Nestled in the Appalachian foothills along the winding Tennessee River, the aptly nicknamed Scenic City has long been a favorite of families for its mix of outdoor adventure and downtown attractions.
Reading the Tree Rings

Trump supporters uneasy about military actions against Venezuela
For years, many of President Donald Trump’s ardent supporters rallied around his pledge to avoid another “forever war” after the long U.S. conflicts in the Middle East and Central Asia. Now several prominent conservative policy advisers and commentators are raising concerns about the administration’s expanding military actions against Venezuela and in the Caribbean.

Photo Story: Uncovering Williamsburg and the Historic Triangle Original
The clang of a blacksmith at work, historical reenactments and tours, beautiful scenic drives, and outdoor adventure—there’s nothing quite like Williamsburg, Virginia, no matter the season. History is present and alive in the rhythm of the Historic Triangle: Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown.
AI can drive restaurant industry revenue and profits — if you can look past the hype
Restaurants should be celebrating the continued tech innovation that creates new efficiency opportunities in their kitchens. But the industry’s old and new challenges threaten to outrun some of that opportunity. Technologists tend to offer “more tech” as the blanket solution restaurateurs need. As the rise of generative artificial intelligence embeds itself in practically every industry and institution, owners and operators are naturally skeptical.

Hollywood Must Diversify Its Business Model Now, and Here's How
Hollywood studios and streaming giants such as Netflix are facing a series of unsettling challenges that no amount of blockbuster movies and bingeworthy series can address: the rapid rise of AI, the lingering SAG-AFTRA strike, inflation and rising interest rates, increased competition and the wars overseas. Content owners need to look beyond their creative output and act more like the tech giants that have done so much to disrupt their business models.

Council Post: Revenue Opportunities For Generative AI And Spatial Computing
Greg Kahn is an expert of the intersection of tech, media and advertising. He is the CEO of GK Digital Ventures and Emerging Tech Exchange. Generative artificial intelligence and spatial computing have dominated trade press headlines and investor conferences this summer—and these topics are likely to drive investment and deal making through next year and beyond.
Immersive Advertising Is the Key That Unlocks the Attention Economy
Immersive advertising isn’t just a game anymore. That’s true on several levels since the drive to “immersion” in media intersects with several trends upending the advertising landscape. There’s the slow death of cookies and the rise of artificial intelligence, both of which are poised to reduce search-driven impressions. And as content owners and publishers view subscriptions as the best revenue driver, there’s a recognition for the need to give users a reason to spend more time on gaming sites.
Immersive Advertising Will Unlock the Attention Economy
12 hours ago That's quite the ultimatum. Another day, another messy news story to come out of X, or Twitter, or whatever we're supposed to be calling it nowadays. Following a chaotic rebranding week in which Elon Musk abruptly announced that Twitter would be rebranded as X, the company is now reportedly demanding …
Universities: the Ideal Launching Pads for Entrepreneurs
I crossed one of those major life milestones last weekend: we took our daughter on a college tour. The Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island campus greens offered a nice break from the New York-area heatwave and flooding rain. I thought of my own college days and what prepared me (and what didn’t) prepared me for the world of 2023.
AI...Beyond Cost Savings
Aside from this week’s introduction of Meta’s Threads as a possible “Twitter Killer,” no subject has gotten more attention than the rise of generative artificial intelligence in business circles. It’s too early to comment on the depth of discourse about Threads. But at this point, it must be said that the commentary and back-and-forth conversations about generative AI have been sorely limited to cost-cutting. I have nothing against productivity.
Voice on Wheels
On Sunday, my wife and I will be taking the three-hour drive from our home to the Berkshires to drop our son off at camp for the summer. My wife is a great navigator. But she’s no voice assistant. (And I mean that in the best possible way for both our sakes.) On the drive to Massachusetts, I’d love to be able to ask my car to tell me where the nearest gas station is. Or where there’s a good spot for a picnic lunch.
Ad Age Event Takes the Pulse of ‘Web3 Frenzy’ — Emerging Tech Exchange
Ad Age writes that “the web3 frenzy” that previously swept the marketing industry and prompted brands to release NFTs and venture into the metaverse has subsided. And yet, its long recap of the Ad Age's Web3 Marketing Summit, finds that brands have not abandoned the idea by any stretch. Major companies such as PepsiCo, Puma, iHeartMedia, and Chipotle are looking at the ways ecommerce is moving into web3 formats as a way to engage consumers' evolving online shopping habits.
The Hype of AI Art
We’re all artists now. Wait, no, not exactly. Technically, if you’re using generative artificial intelligence platforms like Midjourney, Dall-E, Craiyon, MyHeritage’s AI Time Machine to create images, you’re an “art generator.” The differences between “an artist” and an “art generator” are likely going to blur in time. And there will probably be a raft of lawsuits before the distinction is ever close to being settled.
Beyond the Hype Cycle
Most of us tend to have a complicated relationship with technology. That’s especially true when it comes to emerging technologies. At various points, we react to the latest development like an excited kid presented with a shiny toy. There’s the wonder of something new. The sense of ownership is immediate — no one is allowed to touch it. Suddenly, there’s the frustration of trying to figure out how to use it. Sometimes, the kid just gets bored playing with it and the thrill is gone.

Coming Soon to a Theater Near You: Web3
Web3 and the movies might seem like vastly different eras of media and entertainment, but they actually belong together. Sports leagues, retailers, events and gaming are all beyond the Web3 exploration stage, and now Hollywood, too, must jettison its aversions to technologies that are upending conventional loyalty, merchandising and content distribution.

Vatican US Priest
The Vatican has defrocked an anti-abortion U.S. priest, Frank Pavone, for what it said were "blasphemous communications on social media" as well as "persistent disobedience" of his bishop. A letter to U.S. bishops from the Vatican ambassador to the U.S., obtained Sunday, said the decision against Pavone, who heads the anti-abortion group Priests for Life, had been taken Nov. 9, and that there was no chance for an appeal.

Art Basel Miami Community Embraced Web3—But Use Cases Remain Stuck in Web2 — Emerging Tech Exchange
HOW WEB3 WILL CHANGE THE ‘BROKEN’ RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BRANDS AND CREATORS The trick is to know what to do with these new tools once you grasp them. Art Basel 2022 was not the year of bright shiny objects. Rather, the most defining thing this year was the community and how they shaped and expanded the use cases for tools that have alternatively inspired and perplexed the wider public.
Art Basel Miami Community Embraced Web3—But Use Cases Remain Stuck in Web2
“Subdued” is not a typical description associated with Art Basel Miami. But this year, the twentieth time since the city first hosted the global art and tech fest, that’s the word that fits. The wildly imaginative community representing luxury brands, contemporary art and emerging tech that converges in Miami at the end of every November is not known for restraint and practicality.

Barack Obama: “Gracias a la democracia, Trump no logró el 100% de lo que quería”
Si un eslogan ha dejado huella en los últimos años en la política, más allá incluso de Estados Unidos, donde tuvo su gran éxito, ha sido el que aupó a Barack Obama a la presidencia en 2009: “Yes, we can”. El expresidente estadounidense ha charlado con el periodista de la Cadena SER Javier del Pino, conductor del espacio A vivir, en una entrevista emitida este domingo.

How COVID-19 May Be the Catalyst in Ensuring a Healthy Future for Telemedicine
Telehealth had slowly been picking up steam in the last decade, but with the onset of COVID-19, it seemed the virtual care option exploded almost overnight. The national telehealth technology and services company Amwell reported that the number of providers on its platform shot up 820% within the first month of the pandemic, while other providers such as Teledoc saw a 100% jump—an average of 20,000 virtual patients visits per day—from the first week of March to mid-April.
The Future of Mobility is in Our Hands
Pre-COVID-19, electric bikes, ride-sharing services, and mass transportation ridership were on the rise, with smart mobility gaining attention as a revolutionary way of moving from destination to destination efficiently—one that is cleaner and safer.

Wash That Man Right Out Of Your Financial Plan
We’re busier than ever, so it’s fair enough that at some point we think, “You know what? I’m going to leave this one for my partner.” It’s a relief to sit something out. But the idea that finding a man will be your ticket to financial security is a dangerous and disempowering error. Women are quite capable of understanding finances and growing wealth. It’ll take strategies and compromises, but financial security is possible.
COVID-19 and Connected Healthcare: Looking for the silver lining
First things first: For many of us, we may be too close to the current health pandemic and financial crisis to see beyond the fear and panic gripping the world. And it is understandable considering the millions of livelihoods at stake, the misleading information and the real threat that the coronavirus poses to the elderly and compromised. From where I sit in New York City, the gravity of these compounded circumstances can be overwhelming when there appears to be no solution in sight.
