CNN —Billing itself as the world’s “first holographic communications platform,” US startup Proto is beaming life-size, “3D” video into universities, hotels and medical centers.

Nussbaum, whose background is in radio and podcasting, started Proto in 2018. In 2023, video of actor William Shatner was beamed from Los Angeles to the Advertising Week APAC event in Sydney, Australia. A similar technology launched by Dutch company Holoconnects has been deployed at hotels in Scandinavia, and used for advertising by BMW.

Greiner opened up about the evolution of cloud technology and generative AI in the public sector. What's the current demand for AI, particularly generative AI, in the public sector? Cloud went through a similar process, and I think lessons were learned that are now applied to generative AI. Can you provide examples of how generative AI is deployed in the public sector? Are general attitudes toward generative AI receptive or cautious in the public sector?

Read previewThis as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Ruth Faulkner, a 34-year-old digital nomad based in Australia. I have very close friends in Australia, so I decided to move there to be with them in January. There are some cultural differences between the UK and Australia, but they've mostly felt minor. I'm unbelievably happy with my life changeI feel like I've embraced and accepted myself instead of trying to fit into a box. With the time difference, cost, and time required for travel, Australia can feel far away from everything, but so far, my life here outweighs this.

She went to work as a process engineer at an Intel chip fab in Arizona. Over half of companies reported less than 10% representation of women in technical director roles and less than 5% in technical executive leadership roles. While the chip industry makes efforts to expand the recruiting pool in general so that hiring can be more inclusive, the changes can feel incremental. Related storiesIntel set goals to increase its female senior leadership representation to 25% and technical roles to 40% by 2030. Closing the gender gap in the chip industry will require more efforts from companies and top leadership to make these career paths more inclusive and stable.

For example, this season started with the banks roaring higher on great numbers, legitimately great numbers led by a phenomenal Bank of America quarter. The later just made no sense because it is pulling away from Intel on the low end and if Nvidia really does have production problems then AMD is the de facto winner. In fact, the only stock that didn't suffer from an Nvidia relation, Apple, got through earnings without too much trouble.

Rather than developing its own AI models, JPMorgan designed LLM Suite to be a portal that allows users to tap external large language models — the complex programs underpinning generative AI tools — and launched it with ChatGPT maker OpenAI’s LLM, said the people. ChatGPT banThe bank is giving employees what is essentially OpenAI’s ChatGPT in a JPMorgan-approved wrapper more than a year after it restricted employees from using ChatGPT. The number of uses for generative AI are “exponentially bigger” than previous technology because of how flexible LLMs are, Heitsenrether said. Ultimately, the generative AI field may develop into “five or six big foundational models” that dominate the market, she said. Heitsenrether charted out three stages for the evolution of generative AI at JPMorgan.

Audrey Depraeter-Montacel, the global beauty lead for consulting firm Accenture, says the popularity of Korean skin care in the U.S. has made way for a Japanese beauty resurgence. Iason SarrisIndeed, Japanese brands like Shiseido have been in the U.S. since 1965, known for their minimalist packaging and formulas rooted in traditional Japanese beauty practices. Skin care experts at the Shikō collective say Japanese beauty offers consumers more simplified, nurturing beauty routines. Industry experts told NBC News that the Covid pandemic brought about a revolution in interest in skin care routines. While consumers seem eager to find more simplified skin care routines, Depraeter-Montacel noted the tension between more “discreet” Japanese brands and the celebrity-focused American market of viral skin care.
