Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving CarsLinkedIn
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.

What is a virus, what key feature separates viruses from all other m.pdfapexsports101
What is a virus, what key feature separates viruses from all other microorganisms? Why are
viruses important?
They are non-cell life forms, which made up of hereditary material and protein that can attack
living cells. These small scale creatures have a place with the group of viridae and Genus of
infection.
An infection is non-cell life forms made up of hereditary material and protein that can attack
living cells. They are viewed as both a living and non living things. In the year 1897, a
researcher named Beijerinck found and begat the term infection. The term infection is gotten
from Latin word-\"infection\" implies harm. Later in the year 1935, a researcher named Wendell
Stanley found that these infections are made out of nucleic acids, protein and lips. The
investigation of infections is called as virology.
Infections are little and they gauged in nanometers. They must be seen with an electron
magnifying lens. They are made out of a center of DNA or RNA encompassed by a protein coat
they can just recreate by tainting living cells. Their size reaches from 20 nanometers to 250
nanometers.
All infections have a capsid or head locale that contains its hereditary material. The capsid is
made of proteins and glycoproteins. Capsid contruction changes enormously among infections,
with most being specific for a specific infection\'s host living being. Some infections, for the
most part of the sort tainting creatures, have a membranous envelope encompassing their capsid.
This permits infections to infiltrate have cells through layer combination. The infection\'s
genetical material rests inside the capsid; that material can be either DNA, RNA, or even now
and again a set number of compounds
qualities of viruses
They are encased in a defensive envelope.
They have spikes, which helps them to join to the host cell.
They are non cell.
They don\'t breathe, don\'t metabolize and don\'t develop yet they do recreate.
They contain a protein coat called the capsid.
They have a nucleic corrosive center containing DNA or RNA.
Ribosomes and catalysts are missing, which are required for digestion system.
They are viewed as both as living and non living things, as infections are idle when they are
available outside of host cells and are dynamic in side of host cells. As they make utilization of
crude materials and proteins of the host cell to imitate and causes a few diseases.
In development, infections are a vital method for flat quality exchange, which increments
hereditary differences. Infections are considered by some to be a living thing, since they convey
hereditary material, replicate, and develop through characteristic choice..
Infections are essential to the investigation of atomic and cell science as they give basic
frameworks that can be utilized to control and research the elements of cells.[235] The study and
utilization of infections have given important data about parts of cell biology.[236] For instance,
infections have been valuable in the investi.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
