Building integrated solar provides businesses with new bottom line opportunities to leverage their properties to attract a new generation of sustainability-focused consumers, and that leaves little space for fossil energy to maneuver.

More than 20 billion square feet of windows are installed every year, and the leading firm Andersen Corporation apparently plans to make some of those billions into energy efficient, transparent solar energy generators that could kick the pace of global energy decarbonization into high gear. The well-known maker of windows and doors just chipped in for a $30 million Series B funding round that will help push the not-so-well-known transparent solar innovator Ubiquitous Energy out of the startup shadows and into the bright sunshine of the global building industries marketplace.

For solutions to problems, artificial intelligence is the future of business.

In 2001, the founder of Mitticool ceramics learned many of his customers in India don’t have regular access to electricity. So he invented a fridge made out of clay. It keeps food 8 degrees cooler than the outside air, but it doesn’t need any electricity to run. And while other ceramics companies in the region shut down, Mitticool is thriving thanks to the success of the powerless, eco-friendly fridge.

India is one of only a handful of nations that have sent probes to the moon and Mars. But the most impressive part of its space program is its cost-effectiveness. Unlike other government space organizations, India’s agency is extremely efficient, with the lowest cost-per-kilogram in the industry. Now India is throwing open its doors to private companies and raising its stellar ambitions.

Allowing users to buy NFTs with fiat money.

Cryptocurrency might be illegal in China, but that doesn’t mean non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have to be.

China is planning to separate the infrastructure used for crypto from the one used to create NFTs so that its crackdown on cryptocurrencies doesn’t harm the country’s NFT industry, a report from South China Morning Post reveals.

Although robots are more than capable today of carrying out all kinds of business tasks efficiently and accurately, the concept of building machines that can think like humans has always been a dream for tech companies and smart city developers. However, the actual way in which the human mind works and processes information is up for debate, with several parties having conflicting opinions regarding the same. Once enough data is generated, simulation models can be created to build software that can think along the same rational or emotional lines as humans. Human thinking is generally influenced by a variety of factors—cognitive, behavioral, geometric, kinematic and physical. Using cognitive modeling, such factors can be considered while attempting to create robots that think and behave like humans.

The concept of human thinking is still too vague to be accurately replicated in robots. Even then, multiple types of approaches could be taken to reach the ideal end result—enabling AI and robotic tools to think like humans.

The case for the symbiotic business partnership to scale in automation.

Last year, Germany spent $53 billion on defense. This year, TSMC is spending $44 billion on chip factories. (In 2019, TSMC only spent $14.9 billion, so they are spending insane amounts of money trying to fix the chip shortage.) Pretty much everyone in the chip business is also dramatically increasing their spending as well.

TSMC investment will “put a ceiling” on Samsung, Intel’s foundry plans.

What is concept drift?

Concept drift occurs when there are changes in the distribution of the training set examples.

At the most basic level, concept drift causes data points that were once considered an example of one concept to be seen as another concept entirely over time.
