Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).
AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdfmarketingartwork
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.

1. Optimum Strategies for Creativity and Longevity

Chinese Institute of Engineers – USA/Greater New York Chapter, and
Member of Board of Director of
National Taiwan University Alumni Association – Greater New York

1. Most Creative Years in the Life
The Nobel Laureate, Dr. Leo Esaki, delivered the distinguished lecture entitled
"Innovation and Evolution: Reflections on a Life in Research" in the University of
Texas at Dallas in the afternoon of Feb. 23, 2002 during the 2002 US National
Engineering Week. In this lecture, Dr. Esaki indicated that most of the great discoveries
and innovations by the Nobel Laureates occurred at the average age of 32 even though
the Nobel prizes were awarded 10 or 20 years afterwards. Furthermore, Dr. Esaki
indicated that the peak creativity of most scientists occurred around the age range of 20
to 30 years. As one gets older, the experience increases but the creativity decreases
steadily with the age.
It is, therefore, very important to stimulate, encourage and cultivate many young people
to get interested in science and engineering at their young age and to provide the
optimal R&D environment for these very powerful young scientists and engineers to
unleash their very strong creativities during their most precious and creative years
around the age of 32.
2. Longevity Vs. Retirement Age
The pension funds in many large corporations (e.g., Boeing, Lockheed Martin, AT&T,
Lucent Technologies, etc.) have been “Over Funded” because many “late retirees” who
keep-on working into their old age and retire late after the age of 65 tend to die within
two years after their retirements. In other words, many of these late retirees do not live
long enough to collect all their fair shares of pension money such that they leave a lot of
extra-unused money in the pension funds resulting in the over-funded pension funds.
Dr. Ephrem (Siao Chung) Cheng provided the important results in the following Table
1 and the associated chart from an actuarial study of life span vs. age at retirement. The
study was based on the number of pension checks sent to retirees of Boeing Aerospace.

Retirement Age
Table 1 and the chart indicate that for people retired at the age of 50, their average life
span is 86; whereas for people retired at the age of 65, their average life span is only
3. 66.8. An important conclusion from this study is that for every year one works beyond
age 55, one loses 2 years of life span on average.
The Boeing experience is that employees retiring at age of 65 receive pension checks
for only 18 months, on average, prior to death. Similarly, the Lockheed experience is
that employees retiring at age of 65 receive pension checks for only 17 months, on
average, prior to death. Dr. David T. Chai indicated that the Bell Labs experience is
similar to those of Boeing and Lockheed based on the casual observation from the
Newsletters of Bell Lab retirees. A retiree from Ford Motor told Dr. Paul Tien-Lin Ho
that the experience from Ford Motor is also similar to those in Boeing and Lockheed.
The statistics shown in the Pre-Retirement Seminar in Telcordia (Bellcore) indicates
that the average age that Telcordia (Bellcore) employees start retirement is 57.
Therefore, people who retire at the age of 65 or older are minority as compared to the
number of early retirees.
The hard-working late retirees probably put too much stress on their aging body-and-
mind such that they are so stressed out to develop various serious health problems that
forced them to quit and retire. With such long-term stress-induced serious health
problems, they die within two years after they quit and retire.
On the other hand, people who take early retirements at the age of 55 tend to live long
and well into their 80s and beyond. These earlier retirees probably are either wealthier
or more able to plan and manage their various aspects of their life, health and career
well such that they can afford to retire early and comfortably.
These early retirees are not really idling after their early retirements to get old. They
still continue doing some work. But they do the work on the part-time basis at a more
leisure pace so that they do not get too stressed out. Furthermore, they have the luxury
to pick and chose the types of part-time work of real interest to them so that they can
enjoy and love doing that “fun” work at a more leisure pace.
The late retirees are small in number, tend to die quickly after retirement and disappear
from the population of old people beyond the age of 70. Late retirees, therefore, have
very little weight on the statistical average life expectancy of the population of “old
people” dominated by the early retirees.
Several years ago, a Japanese friend of mine told me that most Japanese people retire at
the age of 60 or earlier. This may be one of the factors contributing to the long average
life span of Japanese people.
3. Changing Trend of US Pension Plans
The traditional pension plans of many major US companies used to place a lot of value
on the experience of long-term older employees by increasing the pension money
rapidly and nonlinearly for long-term employees as their age + service year increases
beyond the threshold of the rule of 75. Most long-term employees cross this critical
threshold at about the age of 55. On the other hand, the early retirees incur very heavy
4. penalty in pension and in other associated retiree benefits (e.g., employer paid medical
insurance, employer paid life insurance, death benefits for family, etc.) when they retire
before they meet the rule of 75.
However, in recent few years, many large US corporations are switching from their
traditional retirement pension plans to the new portable Cash Balance Plans. The new
portable cash balance plans are much more favorable to the younger employees but are
very unfavorable to the long-term older employees. Some older long-term employees
found that when their employers switched from the traditional pension plans to the cash
balance plan, their pensions were reduced by 30% to 50%.
One of the implications of this trend towards the new cash balance plan is that the US
corporations are now placing more value on the higher creativity and adaptability of
younger employees and less value on the experience of the older employees. This is
consistent with the accelerating pace of innovations and technology advances. The
creative and dynamic younger employees are better positioned, than the older
employees do, to keep up with the faster pace of technology advances.
4. Conclusion and Recommendations
The most precious, creative and innovative period in your life is the 10-year period
around the age of 32. Plan your career path to use this precious 10-year period wisely
and effectively to produce your greatest achievements in your life.
The pace of innovations and technology advances is getting faster and faster and is
forcing everybody to compete fiercely at the Internet speed on the information super-
highways. The highly productive and highly efficient workplace in USA is a pressure-
cooker and a high-speed battleground for highly creative and dynamic young people to
compete and to flourish.
However, when you get older, you should plan your career path and financial matter so
that you can retire comfortably at the age of 55 or earlier to enjoy your long, happy and
leisure retirement life into your golden age of 80s and beyond. In retirement, you can
still enjoy some fun work of great interest to you and of great values to the society and
the community, but at a part-time leisure pace on your own term.
On the other hand, if you are not able to get out of the pressure-cooker or the high-speed
battleground at the age of 55 and “have” to keep on working very hard until the age of
65 or older before your retirement, then you probably will die within 18 months of
retirement. By working very hard in the pressure cooker for 10 more years beyond the
age of 55, you give up at least 20 years of your life span on average.
