Three tips are provided for creating engaging social media content:
1) Analyze audience data to understand what content they love and share widely, such as images and videos.
2) Don't create entirely new content, but instead recreate and experiment with adapting past successful content.
3) Build a fanbase of advocates by focusing on engagement and conversations to turn viewers into fans who will recommend the brand to others.
Social media is noisy, and some users are moving away to create niche communities where they can communicate with like-minded individuals about shared interests. These communities give users a sense of belonging, especially in a time of immense upheaval where human connection is lacking. This is a larger sign of the importance not just of short-form entertainment like TikToks but also of subcultures and communities. This session will highlight how (your) small communities are winning big.

Social commerce refers to e-commerce activities that are facilitated by social media and user recommendations. The document discusses how people are influenced by others' opinions and purchases online. It provides examples of social commerce models like mass customization where users design products and live shopping communities around time-limited deals. One site is described that sells wine recommended by an online community, with over 1.5 million products sold and $15 million in goods sold in one month through user reviews, votes and recommendations.
People’s attention is on their phone but they’re not looking for ads, they’re looking for content.
Content marketing is the new advertising because consumers are less likely to pay attention to what you have to say about yourself than what you have to say about the topics they care about. You'd rather be what they're interested in, rather than interrupt them from it.
This document discusses how startups can use storytelling to attract customers. It outlines a formula for startups to (1) use content to engage audiences through storytelling, (2) incentivize social participation, and (3) convert audiences into customers through experiences.

The first month of campaign should focus on collecting data to test and learn.

I put this deck together as an exercise for my own personal brand. It's incredible to look at it 8 months later and see how much of the information in here I've manifested into my life.
What a great exercise to go through as a personal brand.
Unilever is a multinational consumer goods company with over 40 brands focused on health and wellbeing. Dove is one of Unilever's personal care brands that has been sold since the 1940s. In the 1990s, Dove launched "The Campaign for Real Beauty" featuring real women of all ages and body types to promote positive self-esteem. While successful in building the brand, the campaign has also faced some controversy. The document discusses three options for Dove's direction: continue the campaign, focus on product benefits, or promote products while keeping real women in ads. It ultimately recommends the third option to address relying too heavily on activism while maintaining the campaign's strengths.
Dove is a personal care brand owned by Unilever originating in the United Kingdom. Products include: antiperspirants/deodorants, body washes, beauty bars, lotions/moisturizers, hair care, and facial care products. Dove is primarily made from synthetic surfactants, vegetable oils (such as palm kernel) and salts of animal fats (tallow).

While the personalities of individual brands are varied and unique, there are commonalities across strong digital brands that can be identified as critical to success in the new marketing landscape. We looked at some of the most successful digital brands and idenfified seven shared traits across the board. Each day for the next week, we’ll uncover a new “habit” and explain its importance to brands.

The four pillars of social selling are creating a professional brand, focusing on the right prospects, engaging with insights, and building trusted relationships. Successful social selling involves sharing knowledge and interesting content rather than self-promotion to gain attention. Content should have certain factors like being positive or providing value to increase the likelihood of being shared.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Taking AI to the Next Level in Manufacturing.pdfssuserfac0301
Read Taking AI to the Next Level in Manufacturing to gain insights on AI adoption in the manufacturing industry, such as:
1. How quickly AI is being implemented in manufacturing.
2. Which barriers stand in the way of AI adoption.
3. How data quality and governance form the backbone of AI.
4. Organizational processes and structures that may inhibit effective AI adoption.
6. Ideas and approaches to help build your organization's AI strategy.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.

5. Creative Strategy Rule
Number One: Find Ways to
Connect Consumers
Around Your Product or
Service
Brands can't shout at people and expect
them to listen, they need to give them a
way to connect. *

* This is super basic -- It’s a core tenet of digital advertising
6. How Can People Share
Your Client's Product/
Service?
Shape the conversation around a brand
by asking what it's social purpose is. *

* Why does it exist - how does it help the word?
7. If a Brand Can Become a
Social Object, They've Hit
Pay Dirt
Social networks are formed around
social objects, not the other way around.*
