A woman holds a "Union" sign as members of the Writers Guild of America and the Screen Actors Guild walk a picket line outside Paramount Studios in Los Angeles, July 14, 2023. WASHINGTON — Unions boost pay 10% to 15% for members and improve fringe benefits, bolstering the middle class and economy, a U.S. Department of the Treasury report released Monday said. "Union workers make our middle class and our entire economy more strong," Vice President Kamala Harris said Monday on a call outlining the administration's efforts to support unions. This year has seen several high-profile labor organizations push for better pay and working conditions as inflation has hammered the middle class. UPS workers agreed to a landmark collective bargaining deal this month and the Writers Guild of America strike has surpassed 100 days.

The result is the largest-ever database of one-on-one Zoom conversations. And while the average loudness of speakers didn't change across bad or good conversations, the "good" talkers varied their decibel levels more than the "bad" talkers did. The machine found that women rated as better Zoom conversationalists tended to be more intense. Good conversationalists are those who appear more engaged in what their partners are saying. Studying Zoom calls may help us have better conversations on Zoom.

Google announced it developed an AI bot that generates music based on text descriptions. The tech giant is ramping up its AI efforts after issuing a "code red" following the explosion of ChatGPT. In a research paper published Thursday, Google researchers described MusicLM as "a model generating high-fidelity music from text descriptions such as 'a calming violin melody backed by a distorted guitar riff.'" Per the study, identifiable existing songs were found in approximately 1% of examples, pointing to potential copyright infringement. The study also notes the technology's existing limitations, including the use of negations and temporal ordering used in text prompts, as well as vocal quality.
☆ 5 ways the book 'Never Split the Difference' made me go from a shy, passive-aggressive entrepreneur to a confident negotiator

I read the book "Never Split the Difference" which felt like a detailed negotiation course.

It was eye-opening to read that the word "no" is the start of a negotiation, not the end of it. Managing your tone of voice is one of the first things mentioned in the book.
