Lex chats with Jamie Burke - founder of Outlier Ventures, about the current state and future of Web3, decentralized finance, and the metaverse. Jamie highlights Outlier Ventures' impressive growth, with a portfolio of around 400 startups, and discusses successful projects like IOTA and Fetch.ai. The conversation delves into the open metaverse, emphasizing the importance of infrastructure and middleware in blending physical and digital realities. Jamie also explores the transformative role of AI in the metaverse and offers practical advice for entrepreneurs navigating this rapidly evolving landscape. Notable discussion points: 1.The “Post-Web” Is an Intent-Led Internet: Jamie Burke outlines a shift from today's attention-based web to an intent-driven internet, powered by AI agents, Web3 infrastructure, and DePIN. In this model, agents act on user intent, radically streamlining interactions and replacing much of today's web interface. 2. Web3 Will Be Run by Machines, Not People: Burke predicts that autonomous agents—not humans—will become the primary users of blockchains, making crypto “machine money.” As a result, products, brands, and processes matter less, while incentive systems and on-chain automation take center stage. 3. Founders Must Embrace Systems Thinking: In the Post-Web era, survival depends on designing self-optimizing systems, not just building products. Burke stresses that token engineering, incentive design, and value flow mapping will define the next generation of durable startups. MENTIONED IN THE CONVERSATION Topics: Web3, decentralized finance, metaverse, Open metaverse, Post web, Outlier Ventures, IOTA, Fetch.ai, accelerator program, AI, artificial intelligence, Agentic AI, agents, Web3, post-web, digital economy, blockchain technology ABOUT THE FINTECH BLUEPRINT

The conversation explores the potential of Augmented Reality (AR) in various industries, emphasizing that AR is particularly beneficial for products that can be standardized and have variations, such as furniture and makeup, while it may not be suitable for products like onions that lack standardization.TakeawaysAR is an exciting space for certain industries.Standardization of products is key for AR applications.Products like furniture can be modeled easily in AR.AR may not be suitable for non-standardized products.Variation in products enhances the effectiveness of AR.Makeup and furniture are examples of AR-friendly products.AR can create virtual trials for products with variations.The effectiveness of AR depends on the product type.Understanding product characteristics is crucial for AR implementation.AR's potential is industry-specific, not universal.Chapters00:00Introduction to Perfect Corp and Its Technology26:39Understanding AI and Machine Learning in Beauty30:39The Role of Augmented Reality in Retail34:31Democratizing AR Technology for Small Businesses36:36The Future of AI and Generative Models40:35Exciting Developments at Perfect Corp

In dieser Episode geht es mal wieder technisch zur Sache – ganz nah dran an der Entwicklungsrealität. Im Mittelpunkt steht die ISO 9241, die zentrale Normenreihe für ergonomische Mensch-Maschine-Interaktion. Warum jede und jeder eine Meinung zu HMIs hat, aber wir als Profis mehr brauchen als subjektive Einschätzungen – das klären wir ebenso wie den Ursprung, Aufbau und die Anwendung der ISO 9241. Es geht um Dialogprinzipien wie Aufgabenangemessenheit, Fehlertoleranz und Steuerbarkeit – und darum, warum Wissenschaftlichkeit und Systematik die Basis guter HMI-Gestaltung sein müssen. Zum Abschluss ein Blick nach vorn: Wie geht die Norm mit KI, Augmented Reality und multimodaler Interaktion um? Und was bedeutet das für die Zukunft von Human-Machine Interfaces? Themen: - Herkunft und Bedeutung der ISO 9241 - Die sieben Dialogprinzipien als Gestaltungsbasis - Zukünftige Herausforderungen: AR, VR, KI und humane Interfaces Eine Folge für alle, die HMIs nicht nur schön, sondern sinnvoll gestalten wollen.

In this episode, I break down what I believe is the emerging structure of the AI-powered world we're all building—consciously or not. I call it the “Four A’s”: Assistants, APIs, Agents, and Augmented Reality. This framework helps make sense of recent developments and where it’s all headed. I talk about: 1. Digital Assistants That Understand and Optimize Your LifeYour DA (like “Kai”) will know your goals, preferences, health, schedule, and context—and proactively optimize your day, from filtering messages to planning meals or surfacing relevant information in real time. 2. APIs and the Real Internet of ThingsEverything becomes an API—from businesses to people to physical objects. Your assistant interacts with these APIs to act on your behalf, turning the world into a navigable ecosystem of services, tools, and resources. 3. Agents and AR Bringing It All TogetherAgents act autonomously to complete multi-step goals, and AR glasses will display their outputs contextually as you move through the world. These systems will collaborate, search, and act—quietly transforming how we live, work, and perceive reality.

In this episode, Michael Krasny sat down with virtual reality and augmented reality expert and Stanford professor Jeremy Bailenson in an expansive and highly illuminating discussion about the present and future of both VR and AR and the ongoing and imminent connections to AI.Krasny began by asking Bailenson about his evolution as a VR pioneer and its present status. Bailenson spoke of "presence" and the filming of a Sixty Minutes episode complete with a real feeling earthquake and an accompanying panic attack, followed by a discussion of "the proteus effect" and the effect of avatars. Krasny then asked Bailenson about funding and his history with Meta's Mark Zuckerberg and Bailenson spoke about NSF and NIH funding and concerns and safeguards he had if funding is hit under Trump, as well as his past experiences with politicians who sought to stop funding VR and AR research and what he (Bailenson) has done by way of preparation for that possibility. Krasny then asked Bailenson about the downsides and dangers of VR and AR, possible guidelines and his work with athletic teams through STRIVR. The two then spoke about visualization and uses of VR in different sports as well as "zoom fatigue," a phenomenon Bailenson coined the term for, and end of life VR use, and went on to discuss VR and mental health, VR and education and VR in the workplace, its effect on productivity, as well as VR and AR and sex. This rich and illuminating dialogue concluded with talk about the Sphere in Las Vegas, (which Bailenson has been very involved in), and immersive experiences in general, as well as Gen AI and talking in the future to figures from one's past. In the end of the interview, Krasny asked Beilenson to gauge and evaluate the effect and impact of the Stanford environment on his research.

A prolific inventor and innovator, Corbett's research has fuelled several spin-out companies, including InfiniLED, which was subsequently bought by Meta in 2016. The company launched to a global audience at Photonics West in San Francisco last week. Chris Gorman, CEO of Vivid Photonics, said: "This is an exciting time to be involved in Photonics, and Ireland is at the forefront of this industry. Years of advanced research in Tyndall have produced breakthrough manufacturing processes that will revolutionise how we generate projected light for small, lightweight AR glasses. The image quality this will achieve is anticipated to be on par with real life." Professor Paul Townsend, Director of IPIC and Head of Photonics, Tyndall, said, "I am excited to see the commercialisation of this latest innovation from Brian Corbett's world-leading photonics research group. This is a fantastic example of how investment in cutting-edge photonics research through programmes such as IPIC can generate impact". Professor William Scanlon, CEO, Tyndall said: "Vivid Photonics' technology is set to redefine how the digital and physical worlds interact. This spin-out company is testament to Tyndall's research excellence in the field of Photonics and we look forward to seeing the profound impact this tech will have across many different applications." Dr Sally Cudmore, Director of UCC Innovation, said: "It is great to see many years of Tyndall and UCC research come to fruition through the creation of a photonics spin-out company. The UCC Innovation team supported the project from conception to spin-out, and I would like to congratulate the research team on their entrepreneurial journey. Vivid Photonics will continue to develop Tyndall's SLD technology into products that will generate economic and social impact."

Find bonus content and more on our Substack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/idris-brewster In Berlin, there are memorials to the Holocaust called Stolpersteine, or “stumbling stones,” that memorialize some of the victims of the tragic event with small brass stones placed into the cobblestone streets outside their last-known residence. These poignant objects create moments for reflection, and awareness of the invisible history that hides behind modern city streets. Here in the United States, we have important points of history that often go unnoticed. Our guest today, Idris Brewster, aims to change that with the Kinfolk Foundation, which uses augmented reality to shift how we learn about our history, bringing it to life in front of our eyes. We speak with Idris about how he found his way into the realm of augmented reality technology, how cultural moments can change historical perspectives, and the power of location-based storytelling and designing for discovery. Bio Idris Brewster is a Brooklyn-born artist and creative technologist who challenges traditional narratives through immersive spatial experiences that merge historical archives, public spaces, and technology. As the Executive Director of Kinfolk Foundation, he empowers Black and Brown communities by turning augmented reality into a tool for monument-making and historical preservation. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This is a premium episode on Design Better.

Through historical evidence, practical reading methods, and real-life applications, Pastor Brian demonstrates how taking God at His word can transform daily life. This message, featuring an intriguing clip from Joe Rogan's podcast and practical tools like the H.E.A.R. Bible study method, offers a fresh perspective on faith for both newcomers and long-time believers. Whether you're skeptical about the Bible's reliability or seeking to deepen your faith journey, this first installment of the "Augmented Reality" series provides accessible insights into becoming a faith-filled follower of Jesus.

John has his SRT Marker Report, and we'll tackle the big question: So, What about 2025? Where are we headed? Sean Fellows has insights and highlights from his Home Selling Guide! Selling Your Home on the Seacoast in 2025: Your Ultimate Guide to SuccessIf you're considering selling your home on the Seacoast this year, you're in the right place. With its stunning coastline, charming communities, and strong real estate market, the Seacoast remains one of the most desirable areas in New England. But how do you ensure your home stands out and sells quickly—and for top dollar? Let's dive into my proven strategies to make 2025 your year for real estate success.Why the Seacoast Market is Thriving in 2025The Seacoast real estate market is as dynamic as ever. Here's why:Continued Demand for Coastal Living: The pandemic created a shift toward lifestyle-focused living has made a lasting impact. Buyers are still focusing in on waterfront properties and quaint neighborhoods near the beach.Limited Inventory: While inventory has increased slightly it is still down nearly 27% from 2021 for single family homes. Currently demand still outpaces supply, creating opportunities for sellers. Rising Home Values: Home prices in the Seacoast have seen steady appreciation, with homeowners gaining significant equity year over year. Those have that been in their home longer 1. Timing is EverythingIn real estate, timing can make or break your sale. Historically, spring and early summer are peak seasons for selling on the Seacoast. But in 2025, market activity remains strong year-round due to remote work flexibility and consistent buyer demand. The best timing is completely up to your personal situation, everybody will have a different ‘best time to sell', let's discuss an approach that works best for you. 2. Preparation is Key: How to Maximize Your Home's ValueDeclutter and Stage:Today's buyers want homes that feel fresh, clean, and move-in ready. Invest in professional staging to highlight your home's best features. Need help? I've partnered with top local stagers who understand what Seacoast buyers are looking for.Focus on Curb Appeal:The most important part with listing your home is the first impression that it makes on buyers. You only get this opportunity once; you want to show your home at its' highest and best. A sharp, fresh exterior, clean landscaping along with a welcoming entryway can add incredible value to your listing. I have local landscapers and contractors that are ready to get your home ready for going to market.Upgrade Strategically:You don't need to throw money away by gutting your kitchen, but minor updates can yield big returns. A fresh coat of paint along with new kitchen hardware can do wonders for an aging space. Keeping your countertops clean and clutter free will make buyers feel more welcome in your kitchen. 3. Pricing: The Goldilocks StrategyPricing your home too high can leave your home on the market for too long and buyers will ask ‘What's wrong with it?'. Pricing it too low can leave money on the table. Using advanced market analytics and local expertise, I'll help you find the "just right" price to attract offers quickly without undervaluing your property.Understand Your Local Market:The Seacoast market has unique trends and nuances. A deep dive into recent comparable sales, neighborhood dynamics, and buyer behavior is essential. I'll provide a detailed pricing analysis tailored specifically to your home.Consider Buyer Psychology:A price just below key psychological thresholds (e.g., $999,000 instead of $1,000,000) can make a significant difference in attracting attention and offers. This is also house specific as pricing ‘On the Bridge' at $1,000,000 may open up more buyers that are seeking homes at or above that price.Stay Flexible:Even with the perfect price, the market can shift. Regularly reviewing buyer feedback and market activity allows us to make real-time adjustments, ensuring your home remains competitive. Working with me, we will have a plan in place if your home doesn't receive any offers within the first 14 days. 4. Marketing in 2025: Digital DominatesYour home deserves more than a simple MLS listing. My comprehensive marketing strategy ensures maximum exposure:Professional Photography and Video: Stunning visuals are no longer up for debate. I use top-tier photographers and videographers to showcase your home's unique charm.360-Degree Virtual Tours: Today's buyers often start their search online. Virtual tours allow them to explore your home from anywhere. This is soon going to advance into Augmented Reality tours where we should be leading with your listing. Social Media Campaigns: From Instagram reels to Facebook ads targeting out-of-state buyers, I'll ensure your home is in front of the right audience. Reaching thousands of people that may otherwise not see your listing. Email Marketing: My extensive database of qualified buyers and agents means your home gets noticed fast. 5. Partnering with the Right AgentSelling a home is more than just a transaction, it is one of, if not the biggest financial decision you will make. As a Seacoast expert with years of experience, I'll guide you every step of the way. From pricing to negotiation, my goal is to make the process seamless and stress-free—all while achieving the best possible outcome.

More than a million breast biopsies are performed annually in the United States, according to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. The need to ensure diagnostic accuracy is great. Alycen Wiacek, Ph.D., motivated by the impact breast cancer has had on her family and a desire to make a difference, is conducting research to help make biopsies more accurate through engineering and augmented reality. In this episode of Further Together, host Matthew Underwood talks to Wiacek about her research. Wiacek is an assistant professor at Oakland University. In her lab, the Medical Acoustics for Global Health Imaging and Clinical Translation (MAGIC), she and her students are developing a system that integrates various imaging modalities into AR to assist in the targeted biopsy of breast masses. This approach with AR means images and information can be displayed directly in the physician's field of view to better guide the biopsy process. Her research is supported by an ORAU Ralph E. Powe Junior Faculty Enhancement Award in partnership with the Augmented Reality for Enterprise Alliance (AREA).

The next five years are expected to bring groundbreaking tech advancements in augmented (AR) and virtual (VR) reality. Real estate—a traditionally unhurried adopter of new tech—isn't immune to this shift, and while this could bring about new revenue streams for property owners, it also creates potential liabilities. Are real estate owners prepared? To learn the answer, we consulted with Neil Mandt. In addition to being a speaker at the AFIRE Winter Conference, Mandt is a five-time Emmy winner and the founder & CEO of Digital Rights Management, a tech platform offering property owners risk analysis and licensing opportunities from digital media companies. Mandt warns real estate owners to start thinking about securing the digital rights of their property. "Buildings are not the only real estate in the world," Mandt says on this episode of the AFIRE podcast, signalling the approach of a new age for property owners as augmented and virtual reality applications become more prevalent through society. AFIRE CEO Gunnar Branson sat down with Neil Mandt to discuss digital media rights licensing and what that could mean for real estate owners and investors.
