America is facing a silent AND growing epidemic: the Adderall crisis. The use of this stimulant (and its generics) has exploded from 35.5 million prescriptions in 2019 to 45 million in 2022.

The use of this stimulant (and its generics), known by street names like A-Train, Addy, Amps, Christmas Trees, Co-Pilots, Lid Poppers, Smarties, Study Buddies, and Study Skittles has exploded from 35.5 million prescriptions in 2019 to 45 million in 2022. But these numbers only scratch the surface. A dangerous black market has emerged, flooding streets with counterfeit pills indistinguishable from the real thing. Users, often unaware, risk their lives with every dose. Even legitimate prescriptions carry significant dangers. The DEA warns we're on the brink of our next drug crisis. With 5-6 million Americans using Adderall without proper diagnosis and one in four teens in some schools abusing prescription stimulants, we're watching a new generation spiral into un-prescribed/unneeded use and addiction.

Subscribe to our newsletter at https://aidaily.us AI Agents Replace Copilots in Generative AI Tech giants like Microsoft, Salesforce, and Oracle are shifting focus from AI copilots to more autonomous AI agents. These agents handle complex tasks independently, but questions remain on how they'll be monetized. Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff criticized Microsoft's approach, advocating for more integrated AI solutions.  Survey: 55% of Users Turning Away from Traditional Search Engines A survey by Barry Schwartz shows that 55% of respondents are using traditional search engines like Google less, favoring generative AI tools like ChatGPT. This contrasts with another survey by The Information, which reported a higher figure of 77%. The discrepancy might be due to differences in audience demographics, with Schwartz's poll leaning more toward SEO and search marketing professionals. AI vs. Lawyer: Live Mock Trial to Test AI's Capabilities in Court At the SXSW Sydney event in October 2024, a live mock trial will test whether AI can successfully represent a litigant in court. Using NexLaw's AI tool, one defendant will be supported by AI, while the other will have a human lawyer. The trial will explore whether AI can assist people who lack legal representation. The outcome, voted on by the audience, will offer insights into AI's potential in courtroom settings. Food Bloggers Concerned Over AI-Generated Recipes AI's integration into recipe development, including Apple's latest "Apple Intelligence," has stirred concerns among food bloggers. While AI can conveniently generate meal plans, critics argue that it lacks the human nuance, sensory experience, and cultural connection vital to cooking. Sarah and Kaitlin Leung, creators of The Woks of Life, emphasize that AI can't replicate the deep research and testing involved in crafting recipes. Conversely, Andrew Olson, developer of the AI-powered DishGen, believes AI offers new creativity in cooking without replacing human insight. Are Résumés Becoming Obsolete in the Age of AI? As AI increasingly powers applicant tracking systems and platforms like LinkedIn grow, some job seekers question if résumés are still necessary. Career expert Eli Amdur argues that despite tech advancements, résumés remain critical communication tools, presenting what role a candidate can play in an employer's future. While technology aids in initial screening, decision-makers still prioritize thoughtfully crafted résumés when evaluating candidates for roles.

This podcast interview focuses on the entrepreneurial journey to solve the growing issue of knowledge worker unproductivity. My guest is Pete Christothoulou, CEO of Xembly. Pete Christothoulou is a serial entrepreneur. In 2003, he co-founded Marche, a publicly traded conversational analytics business.  In November 2020 he founded Xembly - The first automated chief of staff. Its mission: Ensure your company isn't left behind as we're entering a new era of productivity. This inspired me, so I invited Pete to my podcast. We explore what's broken in the world of increasing knowledge worker productivity. Pete shares his vision for reclaiming 44 billion hours annually in the US alone. He elaborates on how he accelerated his way to product-market fit and, from there, predictable traction. Last but not least, he shares what he'd do again if he ever started another Startup. Here's one of his quotes I agree with everyone that we have a transformative opportunity. So I think that's obvious. Where I don't agree is here: if we're not careful, AI will actually create more distraction for us and more pain as consumers, if we're not mindful. During this interview, you will learn four things: How to gather crucial feedback, even if your product isn't fully developed. Why he chose to focus on enterprise customers instead of a potentially much larger SMB market. What single metric he's staring at all day to see whether they make a difference What's the difference between a co-pilot and an auto-pilot, and why this distinction could also affect your SaaS business?

Keeping up with what is happening in AI is no small task. You probably know some folks who spend a lot of free time learning how to bend (insert AI flavor of the week) to their will, there are folks who are preaching to anyone who will listen about all the amazing things that are right around the corner, and then there are the folks who just periodically peek over their shoulder and say “Yeah, um… let me know when you've got this bit actually working.” And then there are people like Snehal Talati. I met Snehal last year at the Scrum Gathering and we did a podcast about http://aiagile.org, the community he started to bring Agilists together to ensure that the intersection between the Agile space and AI happens in an intentional and thoughtful way. It's been 8 months since that podcast was posted and that's like 20 years in the AI space. So Snehal is back to share what's been happening in AI and Agile. and to talk about the free course he built for the Scrum Alliance to help folks get started. During our conversation, Snehal gives an update on some of the newer changes and challenges in AI and he also offers real-life examples of how AI is becoming a powerful part of his personal productivity.

In Episode 52 of Localogy's This Week in Local, our analysts usher in the new year by sharing insights and discussions on topics they've been covering in Localogy Insider. The introduction of Co-Pilot, formerly known as Bing Chat, as a standalone app by Microsoft prompts the question: Will this strategy contribute to the already rapid adoption of ChatGPT? Taking stock of the 2023 startup landscape reveals a somber record, marked by a tally of both outright failures and down rounds (fundraising at diminished valuations). This grim assessment is colloquially termed the "butcher's bill," and in 2023, it saw a substantial toll, with significant losses and financial setbacks. Each host offers one prediction for the new year.  This Week in Local is brought to you by Localogy.
