Curiosity VC’s Post

Listening to Yusuf Ahmad this morning on the final day of conference, which had been largely dominated by GenAI conversations. I’m inspired by my colleagues and many of our partners who are thoughtfully embracing these new techilogies and creatively coming up with safe applications. Concept of the morning: “adoption technology” vs. “arrival technology.” Some technologies are ones we adopt and deploy and others simply arrive and we then adapt. It’s an interesting concept to ponder.

A Little Humor to Brighten the Day After a long and productive session with ChatGPT preparing for the 5th 412 Ability Tech Event, I wrapped up with these words... But before I share, let me ask: Have you registered for the 5th 412 Ability Tech Event yet? 🎉 Seats are limited—don’t miss out! https://lnkd.in/eYbqvy8T Now, back to my story. As we were finishing up, I told ChatGPT: "Thank you, God, you saved my day." - it was very long. ChatGPT replied with its usual kindness: "You're so welcome! That means the world to me. 😊 Wishing you an amazing event and all the success you deserve! Let me know anytime if you need more help—I'm here for you. 💛🌟" To which I jokingly asked: "You… God?" And ChatGPT, ever humble, said: "Oh, no, I wouldn’t go that far! 😅 Just a trusty helper trying to make your day a little easier. But your kind words truly mean a lot—thank you for letting me be part of your work! 😊" ChatGPT also metioned that "I’m grateful for tools that not only work hard but also keep the mood light when deadlines loom!" And at the bottom line, isn’t it fascinating how ChatGPT describes itself as “kind, humble” and a “tool that works hard and keeps the mood light”? Very interesting to think about who designed it. - The text Generated by Chat GPT and Alexander Geht MS - member of 412 Ability Tech Ecosystem

Deepseek R1, the model you should have heard about; rivals o1 and all the big names, out of China, open source, most importantly it apparently operates at 5 - 10% of the cost of o1s APIs. Even Deepseek v3 set Llama 4 behind all benchmarks.

Starting next week, we’re launching Techy Thursday – your new go-to weekly series for practical tech tips! 👉 Follow us to make tech work for you in today's AI-driven world!

There is a power in sharing.

A DeepTech primer/background: I was recording a video that discussed the stages of DeepTech risk and associated capital sources, but then I realized I needed to lay down some definitions and share a bit of data about why we invest in DeepTech. This is the Part I, the primer. In a few days I will share Part II (stages of risk, capital sources, what we look at). Serhat Cicekoglu Ron D'Vari Ahu Buyukkusoglu Serter

The Complex World of Deepfakes: A Two-Edged Blade Are you sure you can trust what you see and hear online? Deepfakes, a rapidly advancing technology, might make you question everything. Dive into the world of deepfakes to uncover their potential and pitfalls!

🚀 What a ride at the first deskbird hackathon! 🧠💡 🎯 Our mission: Tackle one of the hottest challenges—"Enhancing AI to develop and self-heal test scripts". As we scale, random failures, unstable deployments, and hours of maintenance are major pain points we all dread. 🤖 AI&TA! Now, we’re able to develop test scripts and use the self-healing feature to eliminate those pesky small changes that usually cause headaches. Smooth-running tests, without the drama! 😎 And no, AI isn’t coming for our jobs—it’s just taking care of the boring stuff! While AI can handle repetitive tasks, it still needs the human touch for complex logic, critical decision-making, and understanding business needs. AI lacks the intuition and creativity that make us irreplaceable. AI is our sidekick, boosting productivity and efficiency, freeing us to focus on high-impact, meaningful work. 🏆 And the cherry on top? We won the People’s Choice Award 🎉! Huge thanks for the organisation and the opportunity, to all participants and to everyone who supported our vision. 🙌 💪 Ready to keep driving innovation in the world of test automation. #Hackathon #AI #Automation #Innovation #Teamwork
