Token Economy: Benefits & Usecases

Image
  Token economies refer to the tokenization economics of goods and services. A token economy is designed with the primary objective to increase desirable behavior and decrease undesirable behavior with the use of tokens. Individuals who display desirable behavior receive tokens, which are collected and later exchanged for meaningful purposes. Token economies enable new forms of value for both application and content developers and the community.

The token economy offers a range of use cases and benefits. What are the Benefits of a Token Economy? Attract the community to engage:  Developers use the token econom

CIO vs. CTO: Their Functions and Differences

Image
  Both CIO (Chief Information Officer) and CTO (Chief Technology Officer) are executive-level roles that play strategic roles in the technology space, but they perform different functions; one is inward-looking and another is outward-looking. However, there exists confusion about these roles, particularly among laypersons, and some even use these titles interchangeably. While both roles are technology functions, the focus and objectives of their functions differ largely.

  What is ChatGPT and how will it impact “Future of work? ChatGPT is a chatbot based on the  GPT-3.5  — Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) is an autoregressive language model that uses deep learning to produce texts that look similar to the texts created by humans. A ChatGPT can respond to questions naturally, much like a human well-versed in most subjects does. The tool is created for users to receive both technical and non-jargon responses to their questions. ChatGPT, which is still in the testing stage, is predicted by some likely to eclipse and replace Google. It has features apart from what other chatbots have, including answering questions, solving math equations, composing texts, fixing and debugging code errors, language translation, keyword detection, recommendations, and explanations of all actions, among many others. What is a ChatGPT and how does it work? OpenAI — an AI research company — released the beta version of ChatGPT  to test what tasks a very large, powerful

New World Order

Something big is happening, and something new is emerging. Everyone seems to know everything yet no one seems to know anything, it’s a funny feeling, a strange phenomenon. Even industry veterans, pundits, and future predictors are breaking their heads. What’s happening? Is it just another economic cycle, a valley after a peak? NO! Till a few weeks back, there was a lot of talk about Great Resignation, Great Reset, Quiet Quitting, Work From Home, Work From Anywhere, Moonlighting, a 4-day work week, and a lot more. Now, the news is full of global layoffs — companies around the globe started with a hiring freeze and now started laying off, not in a small number, we are hearing about cutting 50% of staff. What is going on? Within a span of a few months (or weeks), there is a trend reversal. Is it really a trend reversal? Established patterns are being broken, and conventional models are getting shattered. Everyone has pretty much realized that there is a new change, a big one happening. We
