Wonders.ai Is Bridging the Gap Between The Digital World and Reality By Bringing Virtual Characters to Life

Wonders.ai

Imagine interacting with a virtual character from an anime series in real life, being able to connect with them on an interpersonal level, get to know their personality, emotions, and preferences. It almost sounds like a childhood dream come true, only it’s a very real reality thanks to Wonders.ai and the power of AI technology. Leveling up on the realistic interactivity, Wonders.ai, an AI/AR-focused tech company, is on a mission to create multiple platforms where people can live their everyday life alongside their favorite virtual characters. The innovative company is currently focusing on developing a technology platform that can bring one’s favorite virtual characters straight to their smartphone. Wonder X, a virtual character adventure game created to give users the ability to interact with a full scale life sized virtual character, came to fruition just before Lin and his team’s current passion platform. Wonders.ai, founded in March of 2019, is the next step in creating the user virtual companion platform they are working towards daily. However, Wonderverse is the platform that will give life to the ability of living alongside a virtual companion, perhaps a character you have grown up receiving entertainment from. Lin grew up playing video games and anime, and like most kids his age, he would fantasize about what it would be like if the characters in his game were real. When he founded Wonders.ai he wanted to utilize cutting edge technology to create a multicomponent platform that could bring these well-loved characters to this dimension. During his masters at the University of Cambridge, he proposed merging a virtual component and real-world content as his end of year project. This would have been made possible using virtual reality headsets if any of the instructors or students could envision his dream. Instead of imagining the lives changed by this new technology, it was shut down and labelled “ridiculous.” Undeterred, Michael Lin went on to help create wonderverse where players can live alongside right next to their favourite virtual character. Inside the wonderverse platform, all virtual characters become the AI companions to the users, “I prefer to build the future than to actually predict it, and I was right,” says Lin. The technical definition of an AI companion is any IP, cartoon character, avatar, or anime character, with a personality, feelings, behavior, storyline, and preferences, that has the ability to interact with the user in real time. When you combine the virtual character with artificial intelligence and augmented reality you release the advanced capabilities of your virtual companion, anywhere at any time. These characters can converse, chat, and speak with their own unique voices and personas. They can share real-life physical interactions in AR and share lifestyles with users. They can form relationships, socialize, and even display human emotions with users. Seeing the potential of this technology, wonders.ai decided to collaborate with and first implement the technology in the vTubing market. Dreaming of the day when people can finally have a personal interaction with virtual characters they love, Wonders.ai, partnered with Phase-Connect, one of the biggest vTubing agencies in North America. Together they plan to take people one big step closer to the goal of “bringing virtual reality and characters to life.” For the first time, they are breaking the traditional barrier of talking through a chatroom and fans are sharing the same space as their most loved personality. This is only the beginning of the Wonders.ai future of user-companion interactivity and with daily innovation you can expect revolutionary gifts from their team of creators. As a user you’ll soon find interactions to be as simple as opening your mobile device or walking out of your bedroom to live alongside a genuine persona, no scripts, no pre-planning, just top of the line AI tech driven conversations. Wonderverse will create the new standard of AI technology, proving what is possible when you align a vision with persistence and passion. “Our love for virtual characters inspires our work. Everyone in the company grew up with games, comics, and novels where they all had their own favorite character they wanted to bring to life. They strive to do that very thing daily with the goal in mind that these characters bring lifestyle value to the users, not just superficial conversation.” To learn more about Wonders.ai and keep up with their pioneering productions, visit https://wonders.ai/ About Wonders.ai are cultivating a world where Artificial General Intelligence can live amongst people as equals and relate to them on an interpersonal level. By giving each of those AI Companions a character of their own, Wonders.ai design AI companions, who complement people in their everyday lives. Hereby, creating a world where users live alongside their favorite characters.

Comcast Invests in Chico, Calif. Launching Three New Lift Zones to Help Increase Digital Equity in the Region

Comcast California

Comcast today announced the opening of a new Lift Zone at The Jesus Center and one in The Torres Community Shelter in Chico to provide free WiFi access to families across the area with an additional Lift Zone location opening at The Jesus Center early next year. As part of its larger digital equity initiative, Comcast also announced donations totaling $75,000. The Jesus Center received $50,000 to help their residents and those of the Pallet Shelter with digital literacy training and work readiness skills, and the Torres Community Shelter received $25,000 to provide digital literacy training to unhoused adults and seniors. Comcast’s Lift Zones program provides free WiFi, powered by Comcast Business, to enable students, seniors, families, and community members to get online and fully participate in the digital economy. With these new locations, Comcast now offers three Lift Zones in the City of Chico — and a total of over 150 Lift Zones throughout its California service area. “Helping to close the digital divide and address digital equity remain top priorities here in Chico,” said Mayor Andrew Coolidge, of Chico, CA. “Our city and our region have become more dependent on broadband to learn, find work and healthcare services and many other aspects of our daily life. Comcast’s new Lift Zones along with their significant financial investments into our city, will create opportunity for individuals, families, and seniors in our community.” “Comcast’s significant investments in our shelters and our communities will help us expand not only our digital literacy efforts but our workforce development initiatives and shows their commitment to providing the necessary tools and resources to those who will benefit most from these life-changing opportunities,” said Amber Abney-Bass, Executive Director of The Jesus Center. “Today’s announcement, and Comcast’s support, will allow us to ensure all of our community members have access to the services they need to thrive.” Today’s announcement and donation are part of Project UP, Comcast’s $1 billion commitment to reach millions of people with the tools, resources, and skills needed to succeed in a digital world. Comcast’s Lift Zones program complements its Internet Essentials program which, since 2011, has helped connect more than 10 million low-income people to the Internet at home. In California, Comcast has connected more than 1.7 million residents, making it the number one state in terms of overall participation in the Internet Essentials program. “We’re proud to partner with the City of Chico to launch these new Lift Zones and donate $75,000 to advance digital equity and workforce readiness in our most vulnerable neighborhoods,” said David Tashjian, Regional Senior Vice President, Comcast California. “Today’s announcement is a testament to the continued commitment from Comcast in closing the digital divide and ensuring equitable digital learning opportunities are available to every individual who seeks it. Our continued partnership with the city and our community partners will equip individuals, families and seniors with the tools, skills and resources they need to achieve their goals.” Comcast continues to be a proud participant in the Federal Government’s Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which provides eligible people up to a $30 per month credit toward their Internet and mobile services (and $75 per month on tribal lands).

What Do The Midterm Results Mean For The Markets? Dive Into Policy Monitoring With FiscalNote (NYSE: NOTE)

Benzinga

Midterm Elections often result in a loss of power for the incumbent political party, but current data suggests that this may not be the case this year. With the President representing the Democratic party, many experts and speculators predicted a Republican “Red Wave,” a sweeping Republican takeover of the Senate and the House. As of this writing, the “Red Wave” has yet to surface. In fact, Republicans lost a seat in the Senate, but have made significant strides in the House. Currently, 220 Republicans hold House seats compared to the Democrats’ 211, and only 218 seats are required for a majority. The Senate remains up for grabs; Republicans currently hold 49 seats, while the Democrats occupy 50. With many anticipating conclusive results in December, current voting data suggests that a single-party rule over both the Senate and the House (i.e. Congress) may not be in the books for this presidential campaign. What does this information mean for investors? The Impact Of Midterm Elections On The Market A gridlocked Congress is generally considered favorable for the market. For bills or legislation to be passed, both parts of Congress must accept the Bill before it can be sent to the President for final approval. With each political party in control of one-half of Congress, the likelihood that market-changing Bills will pass greatly diminishes. Thus, Congress’s gridlocked state reduces investor risk. The passing of Bills can be quite influential on securities. The Infrastructure Bill passed by President Biden, for example, provided a catalyst for the price ascensions of a number of stocks involved in construction like Home Depot Inc. (NYSE: HD) and Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT). Likewise, a vaccination mandate during the Covid-19 pandemic provided a catalyst for the price ascensions of biopharmaceuticals like Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE) and Moderna Corp. (NASDAQ: MRNA). Certain government policies can have a drastic impact on the value of securities, and investors need to beware of these to manage risk and spot opportunities. How FiscalNote Can Help You Spot Opportunities And Risks As an agency specialized in collecting data on the regulatory processes in the U.S. and abroad, FiscalNote (NYSE: NOTE) may be an ideal candidate for helping investors track important policy changes. FiscalNote’s business premise revolves around keeping stakeholders in the know about policies that directly affect them, their business, their stakeholders and their investments. This is no easy task: Since World War II, Congress has typically enacted 4 million to 6 million words of new law in each two-year Congress, according to GovTrack. This data does not include European laws and bills. FiscalNote’s policy-monitoring solutions take the hard work out of tracking policy changes. By collating and personalizing local, state, federal and global policy into one neatly packaged digital solution, FiscalNote simplifies the political landscape. The FiscalNote platform, for example, allows customers to monitor policy issues, manage and engage stakeholders and increase team efficiency through one digital platform. Other FiscalNote solutions allow customers to: Track and report key state legislation and regulations Stay ahead of policy changes within cities, counties, school districts and state boards Discover, monitor and take action on global policy developments Expand and customize team efforts Monitor and understand European Union legislation Glean actionable policy insights from on the Hill with CQ News Manage PAC donations from a centralized platform Constantly shifting policies make the economic landscape unpredictable, presenting opportunities and threats along the way. This year’s Midterm Elections may still create market uncertainty, and FiscalNote reportedly has the tools to help you navigate through them safely.

Holiday Jewelry Buying Guide for Her

Benzinga

If you are looking for jewelry as the perfect gift for your girlfriend, wife, sister or friend, you have a lot to consider. After all, jewelry is a personal gift, and you can’t give her just any piece of jewelry. Instead, you’ll need to put a lot of thought into it to ensure that you give her a piece that she will love and wear for years. If you know you want to buy her jewelry but aren’t sure how to go forward, our holiday gift guide will help you find the best gifts. Buying the Perfect Gift for Your Special Someone Gift buying is an art; when you get that perfect gift, the recipient will remember it forever. And jewelry tops the list of great gifts because of all the options associated with it. For instance, you can give timeless pieces; you can customize jewelry to make it even more personal; you can purchase matching sets for friends or family; you can give permanent jewelry; and more. Even better is the fact that a gift of jewelry will last for years as long as it’s properly cared for. And if you want to take your holiday jewelry gift to the next level? Include the first year of jewelry insurance if you plan to give a piece of high-end jewelry. 5 Holiday Jewelry Gift Ideas While giving jewelry is personal because people have their own style, some traditional jewelry gifts appeal to everyone. You can make the gift special by keeping in mind the recipient’s style and how they like to wear their jewelry. Here are some unique gift ideas that will warm her heart during the holiday season. 1. Earrings If you’re looking for holiday gifts for her where you can get a little crazy, earrings are a great choice. Earrings are an ideal gift for people who like to express themselves in creative and unique ways. For instance, you can give an ear cuff or wrap perfectly sized hoops for the woman who loves the simplicity of thin gold. On the other hand, if she is more conservative in her dress, think about small diamonds or pearl earrings. 2. Rings When it comes to jewelry gifts, rings are in a special category of their own. Whether you are surprising her with a holiday proposal and an engagement ring or want to give her a ring that fits her everyday style, a ring will please even the most discerning woman in your life. You will have many options when it comes to rings. You can give a unique custom ring that draws attention, or you can buy an understated ring that looks expensive and classy. You will find many different price points when buying a ring. 3. Necklaces Giving her a necklace is a great choice because this type of jewelry gives her a chance to stand out in the crowd. You can give her a statement piece that draws attention or you can opt for an understated piece that is adorned with a single gem. You can also give a more traditional necklace such as a band of pearls or a long gold or silver chain. 4. Watches If you want to give a jewelry gift that combines beauty and practicality, a watch is a great choice. And you won’t be limited by only a few styles. You can opt for a classic watch with a thin gold band and understated face, or a unique watch that shows personality, or even go more modern and get an apple watch. Price is a factor with a watch gift, as well. You can choose an inexpensive watch or opt for a high-end watch. Either way, ensure that you choose one that fits her style and personality. 5. Bracelets Another great jewelry gift is a bracelet. Because these pieces of jewelry come in so many styles and colors, your choices are seemingly endless. You can give her a simple gold bracelet, or you can opt for a colorful bracelet made of various materials. Another great gift for her is a permanent bracelet. She will think of you every time she feels the gold touch her wrist. How to Pick the Right Piece of Jewelry As wonderful as gift jewelry is, if you select a piece that doesn’t go with her style, she may not wear it often. Here are some things you can do to ensure that you choose the right piece for her. Consider Her Style Preferences Every woman has a style of her own, and that style extends to her jewelry. Pay attention to the jewelry that she wears. Does she prefer gold or silver, maybe rose gold? Does she wear pieces with diamonds or does she prefer colored stones? Is her favorite jewelry made up of large, showy pieces, or does she prefer smaller, understated pieces? Does she view jewelry as an investment or does she prefer inexpensive jewelry that she can change often? The type of jewelry she wears now will give you insight into her style – and you can use that to select the ideal jewelry piece for her. Take into Account Her Lifestyle Her lifestyle should also take a front seat when selecting jewelry for her. For instance, does she like to wear her jewelry 24/7 or does she take it off every night? Does she work in a creative atmosphere where she can wear unique pieces, or does she work in an office where she needs to wear more modest pieces? Is she active? If so, you may not want to give her a dangly bracelet or necklace that will get in the way while she's working. Think Beyond Rings Although rings make an excellent holiday jewelry gift in many circumstances, there are some instances when it’s best to avoid them and think about a different type of jewelry. For instance, if you’re dating her and are not ready to make a commitment, a ring would not be an appropriate jewelry gift because it could too easily be associated with a wedding ring. Don’t Break the Bank It can be tempting to buy her the most expensive piece of jewelry in the showcase, but before you do that, think about your budget. If you keep the other tips in mind and select a piece of jewelry that fits her style and life, you can get away with a less expensive piece. By shopping around, you can find budget-friendly options that she will find stunning. Consult with Jewelers If you’re not certain about what type of jewelry to buy for her, it’s a good idea to meet with a few jewelers and talk to them about your choices. When you meet with them, ask about their bestsellers, which may inspire some ideas for your gift. If she has a jeweler, speak to them about her past preferences and that may lead you to a better idea of what she would love for this gift. Select the Perfect Holiday Jewelry Gift for Her Giving jewelry as gifts is a great way to let her know that you love and appreciate her. But it’s important to understand what type of jewelry she loves and what jewelry will fit into her lifestyle. Don’t forget to speak to jewelers if you aren’t sure how to select the perfect gift. And if you choose a high-end piece, be sure to insure the jewelry to ensure that it’s replaced if it’s lost, damaged or stolen. This post contains sponsored advertising content.

FatBrain AI Is Working To Mitigate COVID Concerns Over The Holidays

FatBrAin

Doctors are urging the public to be extra careful over the next few months as we approach our third pandemic holiday season. Although domestic and global pandemic mandates have eased and most countries have returned to business as usual, some doctors are fearing a seasonal surge. In Europe, cases are starting to climb again and the World Health Organization is warning that a new wave of infections could be on its way. The need to protect against COVID is still incredibly high. There is much the scientific community does not know about the novel virus. SARS-CoV-2 has been shown to attack the body in a variety of ways, causing damage to the lungs, heart, nervous system, kidneys, liver, and other organs. Long COVID is a phenomenon that doctors are still figuring out and it might be years until research can definitively explain all the nuances of the virus. Masks and testing are effective ways to prevent the spread of COVID but accessing risk data is just as critical. While there is state-level data, until recently there has not been consistent local data for citizens to rely on. High-level data is important to know, but it often lacks actionability for individuals and families on the local level. FatBrain AI (LZG International, Inc.) ( OTCQB: LZGI ) (“FatBrain”), a leading provider of powerful and easy-to-use AI solutions to empower the star enterprises of tomorrow in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to grow, innovate, and drive the majority of the global economy, is looking to change this. FatBrain reports it has created an advanced math and epidemic modeling system that provides clarity about the individual risk that American people face daily. FatBrain’s CovidRisk.Live app quantifies the COVID-19 risks of a local community by looking at the viral transmission rate, daily active cases, and government policies and countermeasures in your zip code. All of this information is used to create an easy-to-consume score or threat level (severe, high, elevated, guarded, low). The scale was modeled after the scale developed by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to communicate the probability of foreign attacks. “[Now], anyone can get clarity on whether they or their family and friends face a severe risk, low risk, or somewhere in between for COVID-19 within their community,” shares Peter B. Ritz, CEO of FatBrain AI, “CovidRisk.Live helps minimize the confusion and provides everyone with a simple, consumable, explainable, and quantifiable way to see the threat level within their community. This capability is critical as each of us can use this tool to exercise personal agency to influence the impact of active policies for the broader community outcomes. COVID-19 is not like an asteroid or an earthquake where we are helpless — rather together we can win, guided by using CovidRisk.Live and similar tools to bolster smart cooperation.” Families and business owners have a tool at their disposal to assess their community's risk going into the third pandemic winter. While it doesn’t seem like COVID is going away anytime soon, apps like FatBrain’s CovidRisk.Live help provide the public with the necessary information to make informed decisions about health and safety. To check out your zip code's COVID risk level, visit www.fatBrain.ai/covid-risk-live/ FatBrain AI (LZG International, Inc.; OTC: LZGI) is the first and leading provider of powerful and easy-to-use AI solutions to millions of businesses of tomorrow driving the majority of the global economy, empowering them to grow, innovate faster and savemoney.
