AI art and sexualization of women
The latest trend taking over social media has been AI-generated art. Art generated by AI has been around for a couple of years now, but lately its popularity has soared, as apps like Lensa have reached the status of the most downloaded mobile apps.
2023-01-03 16:40
Meta-clusivity may not be so inclusive
As the metaverse continues to gain traction, albeit slower than a lot of industry experts have anticipated, various social facets are being compared to the “analog” world.
2022-11-30 15:10
A controversial mission to bring AI to all: a public good or ill?
A prevalent question that has been around for decades is what happens when we have democratized expression? When tackling this question, we found ourselves debating on Stability Diffusion, a generative AI project that has been recently causing controversy, due to its approach to trust the public and make its technology open-source and free to use (anyone can view the code and download it).

Dating in metaverse offers vast array of possibilities
Imagine a first date with someone who lives thousands of miles away that starts with a few drinks in a club set in a past decade, and ends with a dinner on the moon overlooking the Earth. These types of scenarios are all possible today thanks to the advancement of the metaverse.
2022-10-03 13:32
What would you do if you were given the power to be anonymous?
Currently, the subject of the metaverse is discussed and debated mostly in conceptual and abstract forms, as these digital environments are still in the phase of being fully developed and the adoption of digital spaces for practical use is still in its embryonic stage.
2022-09-06 15:18
Can metaverse disrupt traditional workplaces?
As we approach year three of the pandemic, the market has been observing a swift change in the traditional model that has reigned for years. Traditional workplaces have given way to remote working, meeting rooms to Zoom calls. And now it seems that virtual spaces are in sight for big name companies like Meta, Google and Samsung, which are investing big time in the metaverse.
2022-08-02 16:24
Can crypto outpace inflation?
Cryptocurrencies had a powerful allure: No risk from inflation, high returns, complete privacy, easy to transfer anywhere and no regulations or tax fees. Stories of investors making quick profits had people flocking to cryptocurrencies hoping for the same. And then the big crash happened. Celebrities who endorsed crypto became silent, Coinbase, BlockFi, Crypto.com laid off staff, Binance and Celsius Network LLC suspended withdrawals, swaps and transfers.
2022-07-05 16:15
Should we burn crypto?
The fall of the “stablecoin” Luna has shifted the opinion of many regarding cryptocurrency and generated a lot of uncertainty about the future of digital currencies.
2022-05-31 16:15
Are NFTs artificially scarce?
Although NFTs have become increasingly popular, the question of intellectual property has yet to be fully addressed and answered. NFTs gained their value due to their scarcity (a result of ownership through a certificate of authenticity attesting that the buyer is the owner of the original digital work), but because digital files can be easily duplicated an infinite number of times, NFTs also involve making one creative work digitally abundant.
2022-05-03 16:10
War and cryptocurrency
With the devastation of the recent Russian invasion of Ukraine, Ukraine has been receiving a lot of financial aid via cryptocurrencies. With the decentralized nature of crypto, this form of digital currency has proven to be a powerful tool helping Ukraine fight back against Russia. Since the invasion, donations in cryptocurrencies have reached a total of almost $100 million and the Ukrainian government has legitimized crypto platforms to allow users to operate inside the country, during these calamity times.
