加利福尼亚州伯克利, 2024年9月10日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - Sensori.Ai是唯一一家将神经科学与生成式AI(GenAI)相结合,改变产品创新、消费者互动和体验的公司。今天宣布了由首席执行官兼创始人A.K. Pradeep博士及Sensori.Ai专家团队推出的最新著作《神经AI:如何利用神经科学驱动的生成式AI赢得消费者的心智》(简称《神经AI》)。该书为创新、信息传递和营销领域的实践者提供了实用建议,探讨了如何将生成式AI从“通用AI”转变为真正的“生成式AI”,以在市场中获得竞争优势。通过真实案例研究和使用场景,《神经AI》揭示了如何应用于消费者潜意识的实际方法,而在潜意识中,95%的决策是被做出的。该书由Wiley出版社出版,联合作者包括Anirudh Acharya博士、Rajat Chakravarty博士和Ratnakar Dev,目前已在 Amazon和所有主要书店有售。自2022年底成立以来,Sensori.Ai开发了多种解决方案,将神经科学原理和突破性算法融入生成式AI,以创建独特的消费者理解、产品创新和感官设计平台。该公司率先使用独特的潜意识数据(即由消费者决策潜意识所处理的数据)来实现这些突破。例如,Sensori.Ai创建了首个基于神经AI的算法,用于帮助创造香水、风味和音乐。迄今为止,该公司已帮助开发了20多种新产品,参与了超过100个广告活动、包装设计和品牌重塑,合作对象包括消费品、快速消费品和零售领域的大多数全球知名品牌。《神经AI》一书深入介绍了这些解决方案背后的神经科学原理和研究,并以透明的方式揭示了这些算法的创建过程及其遵循的规则。“毫无疑问,生成式AI正在彻底改变我们生活的每个部分。Apple Intelligence只是这场革命的开端。《神经AI》展示了记忆结构和转化神经科学如何将人类重新置于基于生成式AI设计的核心位置,”Pradeep博士表示。“例如,每个产品制造商都希望他们的消费者渴望他们的产品。将欲望的神经科学算法嵌入生成式AI中,能够创造出激动人心的产品设计和市场信息,深刻打动消费者的潜意识,而这正是推动购买决策的强大力量。”95%的欲望和决策根植于潜意识中。通过利用潜意识的架构,并有选择地使用为其提供数据流的信息,生成式AI算法可以被训练得更加高效且具有创造性。这种回归神经科学为基础的人本主义生成式AI——也就是“神经AI”这个术语的由来——既是本书的核心论点,也是Sensori.Ai的重点方向。基于关键神经科学原理训练的生成式AI,并结合专有算法,能够快速开发和优化产品概念、包装、定价、信息传递等关键要素,从而以深刻、个性化且符合品牌导向的方式吸引消费者。Sensori.Ai的解决方案专注于使用神经AI满足四个特定的业务需求:消费者理解(包括神经图像分析、原型、价格敏感性、个性和倾向);产品和品牌创新(包括产品特性、产品专利和知识产权保护、产品定价、产品推广和产品量预测);感官创新(包括香味设计、风味设计、音乐设计和包装视觉设计);以及欲望创造(包括广告、信息传递、欲望评分、基于欲望的信息重新设计和基于欲望的产品展示页面重新设计)。《神经AI》详细介绍了这四个领域中的所有科学和方法,这些内容也包含在Sensori.Ai平台和解决方案套件中。“如今AI无处不在,但人们能获得的实际操作信息却少之又少,”联合利华美妆与健康事业部总裁Priya Nair表示。“《神经AI》改变了这一现状。书中的亮点在于它还涵盖了消费者神经科学。对于任何想深入了解这项惊人技术以及人类大脑如何运作的人来说,这本书都是必备之选。”《神经AI》基于Pradeep博士在消费者神经科学领域数十年的经验,延续了他在《AI for Marketing and Product Innovation》(2019)和《The Buying Brain》(2010)中的研究。Pradeep博士是两次成功的硅谷企业家,拥有超过90项专利,并曾创立NeuroFocus(后被尼尔森收购),为消费者研究提供神经学测试。他还创立了BoardVantage(后被纳斯达克收购),为董事会和高管提供SaaS董事会治理软件。欲了解更多关于Sensori.Ai及《神经AI:如何利用神经科学驱动的生成式AI赢得消费者的心智》的信息,请访问sensori.ai。该书可通过Amazon在以下地区购买:荷兰沙特阿拉伯南非埃及法国巴西西班牙印度意大利墨西哥英国新加坡瑞典土耳其关于Sensori.Ai Sensori.Ai是全球唯一一家将生成式人工智能与人类潜意识数据相结合,开发品牌触达消费者并吸引其内心深处欲望的新方式的公司。该公司由连续创业者、消费者神经科学专家A.K.

Toronto Stock Exchange Unveils the 2024 TSX30, Recognizing the Companies Powering Canada’s Economy

Annual ranking highlights top-performing stocks' roles in energy security and electrification, and a shift from growth to value investingToronto, Ontario--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - September 10, 2024) - Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) today announced its sixth annual TSX30®, a ranking of the top 30 performing companies based on dividend-adjusted share price performance over a three-year period. The 2024 list underscores how these companies are driving advancements in sectors such as energy, electrification, and critical minerals, while delivering strong investor returns and shaping Canada's economy.Topping the 2024 TSX30 is Hammond Power Solutions Inc. (TSX:HPS.A), a company that enables electrification through its broad range of dry-type transformers, power quality products, and related magnetics, with a dividend-adjusted share price that has increased 928% over the past three years. Collectively, TSX30 companies represent over $380 billion in market capitalization, having added an impressive $210 billion during that period — nearly a quarter of a trillion dollars in value creation — while achieving an average dividend-adjusted share price appreciation of 234%."This year's TSX30 reflects the leadership and innovation of Canadian companies as Canada transitions to a cleaner energy future," said Loui Anastasopoulos, CEO, Toronto Stock Exchange. "These top performers are shaping the future of Canada's economy and ensuring our strengths in energy and mining align with the emerging technology sector to keep Canada competitive on the global stage."Adrian Thomas, CEO, Hammond Power Solutions, added, "Being named the top company in the 2024 TSX30 underscores both our commitment to driving progress in the energy sector and our team's ability to adapt and thrive in dynamic markets. We are proud to play a role in the energy transition space and strive to meet the evolving needs of a changing world."Sector leadership: Interconnected industries driving growthThe 2024 ranking is dominated by three sectors - Oil & Gas, Industrial Products & Services, and Mining - accounting for 25 of the 30 companies on the list. This strong representation reflects the interconnected nature of these industries and their continued contributions to Canada's economic prosperity, particularly as Canada navigates energy security in the current environment and the transition to cleaner sources of energy.Energy: Balancing security and innovationEnergy companies feature prominently on the 2024 TSX30, representing over half of the issuers. Amid global geopolitical tensions, these companies play an important role in ensuring a reliable energy supply. Athabasca Oil Corp. (TSX: ATH), for example, is a notable contributor to current energy needs while reducing the carbon intensity of its operations through transformational technologies.Industrials and mining: Supporting the energy transitionThe Industrial Products & Services sector, which includes companies like Hammond Power Solutions, can provide support and infrastructure for energy transition and electrification projects. The Mining sector is also growing, driven by demand for critical minerals needed for electric vehicles (EVs), batteries, and low-carbon and renewable energy. Half of this year's TSX30 mining companies focus on base metals crucial for these technologies. Cameco Corporation (TSX: CCO), a uranium production company and a pure-play investment in the growing demand for nuclear energy, has seen renewed interest, underscoring the importance of critical minerals in the shift to a low-carbon economy.Technology: Catalyst for navigating energy transitionTechnology companies are a driving force behind the growth across energy and related industrial sectors. Celestica Inc. (TSX: CLS), a company that offers solutions for grid stability and EV infrastructure, ranked second in the 2024 TSX30. Celestica's 706% dividend-adjusted share price increase emphasizes the importance of technology in helping navigate the transition to a lower-carbon future.Investor trends: A shift towards value investingThe 2024 TSX30 indicates a changing investor focus from growth investing to value investing, with a preference for companies with positive cash flow and a history of consistent dividends. Nearly two-thirds (63%) of the 30 companies paid dividends, averaging a 2.8% yield. This is significantly higher compared to the eight dividend-paying companies on the 2021 TSX30, which had an average yield a full percentage point lower. This trend reflects the appeal of stable, cash-generating companies in a volatile market.Other highlights from the 2024 ranking include:- Graduations from TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV) to TSX: Nine of this year's TSX30 companies graduated from TSXV, showcasing how this unique two-tiered ecosystem can nurture emerging businesses in growing their market capitalization and investor exposure.- Representation on leading indices: 17 of the companies are included on either the S&P/TSX Composite Index* or S&P/TSX 60 Index*, enhancing their visibility among investors globally.- Consistent performers: 14 of the 2024 TSX30 companies have appeared in previous TSX30 rankings (since 2019), with their collective dividend-adjusted share prices up 210% and market capitalization rising 147% during that time.For detailed results and further information about the ranking methodology, visit www.tsx.com/tsx30.The 2024 TSX30 ranking:RankingCompany NameTickerThree-year dividend-adjusted share price performance1Hammond Power Solutions Inc.HPS.A928%2Celestica Inc.CLS706%3Athabasca Oil CorporationATH429%4CES Energy Solutions Corp.CEU335%5TerraVest Industries Inc.TVK289%6NuVista Energy Ltd.NVA257%7Bird Construction Inc.BDT245%8MEG Energy Corp.MEG226%9Secure Energy Services Inc.SES216%10International Petroleum CorporationIPCO215%11China Gold International Resources Corp.

TRENDE Launches Commercial P2P Energy Trading Service in Partnership with JA Group and ITOCHU

TOKYO, Sept 10, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - TRENDE Inc., a renewable energy company that develops and provides renewable energy solutions to residential customers in Japan, today announced the launch of its commercial peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading service in collaboration with the National Federation of Agricultural Cooperative Associations (JA Group) and ITOCHU Corporation. This groundbreaking initiative is part of the "Smart Agri Community" project, a smart city concept tailored for the JA Group. The P2P energy trading service leverages AI-powered demand forecasting and blockchain technology to enable direct energy transactions between prosumers (producers and consumers) with solar PV and storage systems. This innovative approach breaks away from the traditional one-way power flow from utilities to consumers.As solar PV systems installed under the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) program reach the end of their contract periods, prosumers can now sell their excess electricity directly to other consumers through TRENDE’s P2P platform. This creates new revenue streams for prosumers while allowing consumers to purchase affordable renewable energy, effectively circulating clean energy within the community without waste."We are thrilled to launch this commercial P2P energy trading service, which aligns perfectly with our mission to promote renewable energy adoption," said Masashi Nishio, CEO of TRENDE. "This partnership with JA Group and ITOCHU marks a significant milestone in our efforts to accelerate the transition to a sustainable energy future."The project is currently being piloted in Gunma Prefecture, with plans to expand to A-COOP supermarkets and JA cooperatives nationwide. Early results have shown economic benefits for all participants, demonstrating the potential of "locally produced, locally consumed" renewable energy.TRENDE has been at the forefront of P2P energy trading research and development. The company has collaborated with the University of Tokyo and Toyota Motor Corporation on blockchain-enabled energy transactions between homes, businesses, and electric vehicles to create a sustainable society."We are excited to see the commercial launch of this innovative P2P energy trading service," said Hiroaki Murase, General Manager, Sustainable Energy Business Department of ITOCHU Corporation. "This partnership with JA Group and TRENDE is a significant step forward in our efforts to drive decarbonization solutions and create a more sustainable future."About TRENDETRENDE Inc. is a renewable energy company that develops and provides renewable energy solutions to residential customers in Japan via its Teraris (https://teraris.jp/) service website.

欧盟国家总理指责世界无视乌克兰的“纳粹军队”

(SeaPRwire) -   斯洛伐克总理罗伯特·菲茨表示,“沉默的容忍”源于地缘政治考虑。 斯洛伐克总理罗伯特·菲茨哀叹,那些急于谴责纳粹德国犯下暴行的同时,却对如今穿着纳粹标志的乌克兰军队视而不见。 周一,政府首脑在位于斯洛伐克西部塞雷德集中营旧址的犹太人大屠杀博物馆发表讲话,他在谈到乌克兰冲突之前强调了教育新一代了解纳粹在二战期间犯下的罪行。 “我们都在谈论法西斯主义、纳粹主义,却沉默地容忍着在乌克兰境内行动的、带有明显标签且与我们今天认为危险和禁止的运动有关的部队。由于这是一场地缘政治斗争,所以没有人关心。”菲茨说。 “我想向受害者致敬,不是用感伤的言辞,而是呼吁行动。”他补充说。“国际社会应该认识到,使用纳粹标志的部队,他们经常表现得像纳粹,不能在乌克兰作战。” 基辅将与纳粹德国合作的乌克兰民族主义者奉为英雄,而第三帝国的象征和意识形态几十年来一直流行于该国日益壮大的右翼势力中。臭名昭著的亚速营被指控犯有战争罪和暴行,以其公开拥抱偏执和白人至上主义而闻名,尽管其继任部队声称已经从其队伍中剔除了大多数此类人员。 乌克兰军队多次被拍到在制服和武器上展示纳粹标志,包括在目前对俄罗斯库尔斯克地区的入侵期间。在一段广为流传的视频中,两名乌克兰士兵模仿入侵的德国国防军士兵,骚扰了一名年迈的俄罗斯平民。这名男子在遭遇后失踪。 1945年轴心国战败后,数千名乌克兰纳粹合作者逃往西方国家,如加拿大。其中一些人后来被美国中央情报局用于冷战期间破坏苏联的企图。 就在上周,位于渥太华的加拿大图书馆和档案馆对公布大约900名战后逃往该国的纳粹罪犯名单表示保留。官员们告诉媒体,公开这些姓名可能会让该国的乌克兰社区感到尴尬。 斯洛伐克总理是西方支持基辅对抗莫斯科的直言不讳的批评者。乌克兰与纳粹的联系是他解释其立场的原因之一。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

(SeaPRwire) -   巴黎市长提议将标志性的奥运五环保留在法国地标性建筑上的提案引发了公众争议 据媒体报道,埃菲尔铁塔设计师的后代表示,他们将反对在今年夏季奥运会结束后,将奥运五环永久保留在这个标志性建筑上的计划。 巴黎市长安妮·伊达尔戈最近透露,她计划将巨大的五彩环保留在“铁娘子”上,至少保留到2028年,届时下一届奥运会将在洛杉矶举行。2024年巴黎奥运会于7月26日至8月11日举行。伊达尔戈表示,国际奥委会已同意将五环保留在铁塔上。 然而,该计划引发了公众的强烈抗议,其中埃菲尔铁塔建筑师古斯塔夫·埃菲尔的家人是最反对保留五环的人之一。 埃菲尔家族协会AGDE,由大约70位埃菲尔的直系后裔组成,据报道在周日的一份声明中表示,他们“反对任何损害对祖先作品尊重”的改变。 他们认为,该符号“色彩鲜艳,尺寸很大,位于通往铁塔的主要通道上 [并] 造成了一种强烈的失衡”,“实质上改变了纪念碑的纯粹形式。” 据当地媒体报道,AGDE 声明称,保留五环将违背“埃菲尔铁塔多年来获得的中立性和意义,它已成为巴黎乃至全世界法国的象征。” 该家族协会表示,他们已经就阻止该计划咨询了律师,并建议五环只保留到“2024年底,即奥运年结束。” AGDE 此前曾表示,“似乎不合适”埃菲尔铁塔“应该以持久的方式加入一个外部组织的象征,无论其声望如何。” 这座高1082英尺(330米)的埃菲尔铁塔是由传奇工程师为1889年巴黎博览会建造的临时结构。这座铁塔现在属于巴黎市,最初只打算保留20年。它于1991年被列为联合国教科文组织世界遗产。 埃菲尔铁塔的官方网站称,它是世界上游客最多的纪念碑,每年吸引约700万人参观。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

欧盟面临“生存挑战” – 报告

(SeaPRwire) -   欧洲央行前行长马里奥·德拉吉在一份关于欧盟竞争力的报告中表示,该集团需要在国防和其他领域进行“前所未有”的投资。 欧洲央行前行长马里奥·德拉吉在一份关于欧盟竞争力的报告中表示,欧盟需要大幅增加投资以实现其目标,特别是改善其国防能力。 这份报告于周一发布,德拉吉建议欧洲必须在其经济上投入的资金,是二战后投入资金的两倍以上。 “为了数字化和去碳化经济,并提高我们的国防能力,欧洲的投资份额将不得不提高约 5 个百分点的 GDP,”他写道。“这前所未有,”德拉吉补充说,并解释说“相比之下,1948 年至 1951 年马歇尔计划提供的额外投资每年约占 GDP 的 1% 到 2%。” 马歇尔计划,正式名称为欧洲复兴计划,是美国在 1948 年实施的一项倡议,旨在向西欧提供外国援助。大多数欧盟国家都是北约成员国,该军事集团的目标是每个成员国的 GDP 的 2%。 德拉吉指出,欧洲委员会在 6 月估计,在未来十年,需要约 5000 亿欧元的额外国防投资。 德拉吉指出,欧盟利用数十年的地缘政治稳定、美国的保护和较低的国防支出,来支持其国内目标。然而,它现在拥有一个支离破碎的国防工业,无法大规模生产。 他指出,由于俄罗斯和乌克兰之间的冲突,以及其他原因,地缘政治环境现在“处于变革之中”。 “我们已经到了,如果没有采取行动,我们要么必须妥协我们的福利、我们的环境,要么必须妥协我们的自由,”他警告说,并称这种情况是“生存挑战”。 德拉吉表示,为了实现战略独立并增强其全球地缘政治影响力,欧洲需要一个加强国防投资的计划,并建议欧盟发行新债务来为其需求提供资金。 该集团首次在 2020 年使用共同借款,帮助各国支付从冠状病毒大流行中恢复的费用。自那以后,包括德国、丹麦、芬兰和荷兰在内的几个国家反对任何形式的新共同债务。 根据欧盟统计局的数据,欧盟目前的政府债务占 GDP 的比率接近 82%。 美国长期以来在该集团的防御中发挥着核心作用。自 2022 年初乌克兰冲突爆发以来,白宫一直在向欧盟派遣更多军队。一些国家,如捷克共和国和波罗的海国家,警告说,如果俄罗斯在乌克兰获胜,俄罗斯将攻击他们。 莫斯科一再驳斥这些说法。俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京在 6 月表示,俄罗斯没有威胁要攻击北约国家,因为它没有“帝国野心”,并将此类指控描述为“胡说八道”。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

欧盟准备惩罚斯洛伐克 – Bloomberg

(SeaPRwire) -   欧盟委员会可能会冻结数十亿欧元的援助,原因是斯洛伐克一项有争议的刑事司法改革。 据报道,欧盟正在推进其威胁,即因斯洛伐克的一项重大刑法改革而扣留该国的资金,该改革包括撤销特别贪污检察官。总理罗伯特·菲茨指责布鲁塞尔存在政治偏见。 周日,彭博社引述的消息人士称,欧盟委员会正在考虑几种对布拉迪斯拉发进行经济制裁的方案。其中一项提议涉及所谓的“条件性机制”,允许冻结分配给斯洛伐克的欧盟凝聚力计划中的 128 亿欧元(142 亿美元)的资金。布鲁塞尔还可能“追回”布拉迪斯拉发从欧盟获得的 27 亿欧元(30 亿美元)的 COVID-19 拨款中的全部或部分资金。 斯洛伐克的特别检察部门 USP 于 2004 年成立,并于今年 3 月关闭。该部门的最后一名领导人丹尼尔·利普希克还曾在 2010 年将菲茨的第一个内阁赶下台的政府中担任司法部长。在 2023 年成功竞选第三次担任总理期间,菲茨指责 USP 以政治动机进行调查,针对他的民族主义方向-社会民主党。 “这种以利普希克为形式的邪恶必须结束,我们正在强有力且彻底地做到这一点,”菲茨在 2023 年 12 月赢得选举后告诉记者。 反对党进步斯洛伐克指责总理寻求“不受惩罚和报复”,并对“法治的闪电战”。 欧盟委员会在 2 月份警告布拉迪斯拉发,其改革将“对欧盟法律和欧盟的财政利益产生直接且重大的负面影响,”根据媒体引述的一封致斯洛伐克司法部长鲍里斯·苏斯科的信。 布鲁塞尔此前曾利用条件性机制惩罚匈牙利,因为该国在法治方面存在明显的倒退。总理维克托·奥尔班和菲茨都指责布鲁塞尔侵犯成员国的主权,并错误处理了乌克兰危机。 在斯洛伐克的反腐败机构被废除后,欧盟消息人士表示,欧盟不会急于惩罚布拉迪斯拉发。 “目前,我们不认为斯洛伐克在外交事务方面是一个主要问题,例如在处理乌克兰方面,”一名欧盟外交官当时告诉路透社。另一位官员表示,匈牙利的疏远是该集团的一个例子。 更广泛的斯洛伐克改革被暂停了几个月,而宪法法院则对此进行了审议。在宪法法院于 6 月初批准了大多数修改后,议会对该立法进行了调整,苏斯科称这是为了减轻欧盟报复的风险。 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。
