While the idea of seeking emotional support from an android that looks like something from a science fiction movie may sound surreal, a Chinese tech company is trying to make it a reality. Many young people are very lonely now. Many people probably don't have many friends and they have no family or partner. There will be market demands for this kind of emotional companionship and even partner robots in the future. And there’s a more direct demand from the elderly. There are not too many young people now, and many of them are away from home and it's difficult for them to accompany the elderly. Why are we always talking about companion robots for the elderly? It’s because there’s an obvious and direct demand. https://youtu.be/3YnbWY6cV98?si=GLd7PuOqS2KxYqJ2 What do you think?

This is an old, but very interesting finding.

Many CEOs are publicly gearing up for yet another return-to-office push. Privately, though, executives expect remote work to keep on growing, according to a new survey. That makes sense: Employees like it, the technology is improving, and — at least for hybrid work — there seems to be no loss of productivity. Despite the headlines, executives expect both hybrid and fully remote work to keep increasing over the next five years. https://hbr.org/2023/08/survey-remote-work-isnt-going-away-and-executives-know-it What is your opinion?
