Las Vegas is using AI to count the number of cars and passengers, as well as capture vehicles’ direction and movements, such as turns. Thirty intersections have the AI lights already, with another 50 to come soon.

Think about this... Twitter abdicates its role as a social media leader. It leaves the grand social experiment that is our data-driven, hyper-targeted messaging world for others to figure out, and it increases EBITDA while doing so. Well done, Jack!

There are two basic camps in the world of marketing: numbers camp and pretty pictures camp. I live in both camps, and you should too. If you live in the numbers camp, I’m going to confirm what you already know. If you live in the pretty pictures camp, buckle your seatbelt, because this is going to be a fast, bumpy ride. https://lnkd.in/eaDsthB #Advertising #ai #algorithm #BigData #data #literacy #datascience #MachineLearning #Marketing #digitalmarketing #socialmedia #adtech #martech …see more

An invitation to walk in the Labor Day Parade got me thinking about labor law as an alternative path to meaningful data privacy regulation. Think about this… There is a popular meme used to explain the exchange of our data for free online services: “When something online is free, you are not the customer; you are the product.” This idea is generally adapted to fit the regulatory argument du jour. Another popular way to explain the exchange of our data for free services is to say, “The services we enjoy are not free; we are paying for them with a new form of currency, our data.” There is some validity to each of these ideas, but both assume that users inevitably exist to serve the commercial interests of the data elite. I reject this notion. At the moment, most users are humans, and in America, being human comes with some “unalienable” rights. https://lnkd.in/ei4GNfV #privacy #marketing #google #algorithm #facebook #socialmedia #cybersecurity #business #commonsense …see more
