17. According to the book Authenticity, customers
do not buy products just on price. The idea of
a real cup of coffee that's distant from the
mass manufactured Starbucks coffee is now
disrupting marketing in both food and drink.
21. This is a disruptive
business model
if Starbucks is

23. Progressive have achieved this through making the idea of
insurance simple and friendly. This shift in progressives brand
strategy has helped to dominate a large chunk of the market.
24. This was so successful that the brand has spilled over into pop
culture as people dress as Progressives mascot for Halloween.

Due to the need to rebrand quickly, several
brands have reflected the same uncreative
ideas in their campaigns. This has led to many
brands becoming interchangeable in the
customer's eyes

34. PayPal Shares Pop 8.3 Percent Following eBay
Split Valuing PayPal At More Than $50 Billion
Everybody expected PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) to be worth more than eBay following its split with
its parent company (NASDAQ:EBAY), but not that much. After a short period of trading on a
“when issued” basis, PayPal is now officially an independent company. On its first day of trading,
shares opened at $41.63, 8.3 percent above Friday’s last temporary closing price before its
public introduction.
36. The Recession didn't just postpone financial independence for millions of young Americans.
It also changed our attitudes about what it means to be an adult.
37. In August 2010, Robin Marantz Henig observed
in New York Times Magazine that Generation Y
(the Millennials) has pushed back each of the
five milestones of adulthood: completing
school, leaving home, becoming financially
independent, marrying, and having a kid. Why
won't Millennials grow up? she wondered.
The biggest reason is they can't, according to
the Pew Research Center's fantastic new
survey "Young, Underemployed, and
Optimistic." It begins with school.

38. The good news is that more young adults are enrolled in school than ever.
The share of 18- to 24-year-olds enrolled has increased by 50% since 1990.
That's awesome. Less awesome is that the cost of college is rising, too.
Average debt for public college
students doubled between 1996 and 2006. It's less advisable to invest in
marriage with $30,000 in student debt as a couple. "More than one-in-five
young adults ages 18 to 34 (22%) say they have postponed having a baby
because of the bad economy," Pew reported. "Roughly the same proportion
say they have postponed getting married."

39. If school years delayed financial independence,
the Great Recession just about shattered it.
Due to economic conditions, 24% of young
adults have moved back in with their parents
for a significant period of time. "Among those
ages 25 to 29, the share moving back home
rises to 34%," Pew reports. One in three!

Zuckerberg reveals Facebook's AI
Zuck says Facebook's in the midst of building AI systems "that are better than humans at our primary senses."
They're designing one to be able to detect everything in an image or video: people, objects, animals, backgrounds
and locations, among others.
If it can understand what's in an image or video, it could, for instance, tell a blind person what it's about.
The other system they're working on focuses on language, so that it'll be able to translate speech to text and text
from one language to another, as well as answer questions in conversational lingo.
Of course, these AI systems' most obvious application is being able to surface more relevant News Feed entries
for users and giving everyone a new way to consume posts on the site.

Snips Grabs $6.3 Million To Add An Artificial Intelligence Layer To Your Phone
French startup Snips just raised $6.3 million (€5.6 million) in a seed round led by The Hive, with participation from
Eniac Ventures, 500 startups, Brent Hoberman, Xavier Niel and Bpifrance. The company wants to add some sort of
artificial intelligence layer on top of your smartphone so that you can use your phone more efficiently.
In pragmatical terms, Snips will release in the near future a new Android home screen as well as an iPhone app so
that it can show you relevant information and apps when and where you need them. In many ways, this pitch is
very reminiscent of smart Android home screen startups, such as EverythingMe. The iOS app might just be an
intelligent app launcher.

65. Snips has been around for a while, focusing on smart data analysis
with a lot of data scientists and PhDs working for the company.
The team didn’t have a product or business model in mind. It
experimented for a while, launching projects around smart cities,
such as Tranquilien, a service that predicts how busy your train is
going to be, or a smart empty parking spot prediction service.

68. Dungeon Master & Insurance
Company
A Dungeon master controls
the game. He has rule books
for every event he can think
of, within reason. He says
what's with the rules of the
game and not. He can reward
the players ability
69. The little castle is not for show, its called a DM screen. He can hide
behind that to tweak the game for each event. We need to keep the
game flowing and to cover his human errors, bad dice rolls. Much like
our call center he may not always have the right info in front of him so
he need to hide.
70. By 2005 his job can be done by an AI.
The AI will be able to react faster, give better feedback, call up
information faster.
71. The Director, sometimes referred to as the AI Director, or simply as AID is the artificial
intelligence of Left 4 Dead that features a dynamic system for game dramatics, pacing, and
difficulty.
Instead of set spawn points for enemies, the Director places enemies in varying positions
and numbers based upon each player's current situation, status, skill, and location, creating
a new experience for each play-through. The Director also creates mood and tension with
emotional cues such as visual effects, dynamic music and character communication.
Moreover, the Director is responsible for spawning additional health, ammo, weapons, and
Special Infected, like the Witch or the Tank.
It should be noted that there is another Director in the game, which controls the music on
a per-player scale, called the Music Director. This article will only deal with the main one,
the Director in charge of spawning enemies and items.

72. On the most basic term,
Insurance will move to an AI
in the next 15-25 years.
Being able to track all your

calculate problems before

the need for our Dungeon

we know today.

attractive as it’s a need
not a want. Depending on
how Apple positions the
space they may allow
startups to enter the market
through Apps
It’s a space that insurance
needs to quickly innovate
Only barrier is legislation
81. Home insurance already
has innovation with
the nest.
Home insurance is a
nice point of entry
as anyone with
intelligent devices
are early adaptors.
83. Gadget insurance is going to become more and more important in the future.
It can be the tool for early adoption, education and to begin the first step into
moving Axa into the internet of things.

97. Apple was working on a project that would
"give Tesla a run for its money
98. Financial Times and other media sources speculated that Apple was perhaps developing an
advanced software platform to build upon what it introduced with CarPlay because a full-on car
project sounded unbelievable, but just hours later, The Wall Street Journal launched a figurative
bomb. Apple is indeed working on creating an electric vehicle, said the site, a project that it
started exploring last year.
