As artificial intelligence capabilities grow, even some managerial positions are at risk for total automation. But just how far can AI go in management? And can we expect it to replace our managers completely? Well, not exactly. While there are nearly countless options for AI tech in business, it doesn’t yet cover all the bases of what makes a manager a manager. In 2018, Amazon abandoned development on a smart recruiting AI tool. Up until it was scrapped, this AI algorithm was considered the state of the art until it took a turn. As a learning machine, the AI was

In the United States 69% of adults drink at least two cups of coffee a day. Humanity’s experience with coffee doesn’t begin and end with our morning thermos though – where there is culture, coffee culture isn’t far behind. Heavily influencing European cultures, the Dutch Parisians, and Venetians in particular, the first coffeehouses as we understand them today began cropping up in the Netherlands. Offering more than just a place to sit and enjoy a hot cup of coffee, the coffeehouse offered a neutral location for socializing, discussion, innovation, and even dissent. Sociologist Ray Oldenburg describes the concept of the
Many people who use CBD for the first time have the same thought – why was this ever illegal, and how long is it going to remain legal? There are some really strange reasons why hemp and even marijuana has been kept illegal for the last 80+ years, especially in light of recent research into its efficacy in treating many serious health issues. Because marijuana, CBD, or other derivatives can treat such a wide variety of problems, there’s growing concern that pharmaceutical companies will push back against legalization to protect their profits. When it comes to pain management alone, CBD
In 2017, the national student loan debt in the United States passed a value of $1.4 trillion. Putting pressure on past, current, and future students, the precarious student loan bubble is only growing – and it won’t be long before it pops. In the decade of the Great Depression following a stock market crash in 1929, unemployment rates peaked at 25% and it took until the start of WWII to fully recover. Decades later, the housing market crashed and started the Great Recession that saw 8.7 million jobs lost between 2007 and 2010. Any way you spin it, the United
Almost half of Gen Zers believe financial independence is the first marker of adulthood, but getting there is easier said than done. Having grown up before our very eyes, Gen Zers are already entering and even graduating college, bringing with them goals, determination, and no fear of questioning even the most enduring educational standard – college itself. Since the G.I. Bill was signed into law in 1944, total college enrollment in the US has steadily grown. College opportunities were booming thanks to this bill, giving million of returning veterans the education they deserve and setting a powerful national standard. By
One of the most important parts of agriculture all over the world, herbicides and more specifically its active ingredient glyphosate, have been working to keep our crops healthy and weed free since the 1970s. Used in commercial farming to hobby gardens, Monsanto brand Roundup has been a favorite – that is until an unprecedented legal battle began in January 2016. Alleging his diagnosis of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma as the direct result prolonged use of glyphosate-based herbicides in his daily duties as a California school groundskeeper, Dewayne Johnson made legal moves against the corporate giant Monsanto. By August 2018, the jury ruled
Born from 1996-present, Gen Z is beginning to overshadow millennials as the young whipper snappers. Discontent with the status quo and waiting around for their dream job to come to them, Gen Zers build their own opportunities for success – in other words, entrepreneurship. Already including 71 million Americans ranging from middle school to recent college grads, these young folks grew up quickly between both the Great Recession and student loan crisis. In 2017, 44 million Americans had a collective student loan debt of $1.4 trillion, and Gen Z becomes increasingly reluctant to take on that burden themselves. Left with
