Given the rising demand for new and improved software at break-neck speed, organizations must adopt AI-augmented software development to meet modern business demands. 

Overview   It seems like we’ve been talking about AR (augmented reality) and VR (virtual reality) design as something in the future for a long time now. The reality is that that future is here, breaking through faster than we thought. Immersive technology needs skilled designers to jump in, get involved and start creating good products and experiences. 

The Web 3.0 Revolution  Blockchain is a technology designed for the exchange of value or goods without the need for a trusted intermediary, providing all the parties that make up the network with a copy of the record of the transaction or exchange that is carried out, to be distributed among all the members. Any change, manipulation or deletion of these transactions also implies the conviction of the majority of the participants to validate this alteration, and a computing power of such magnitude that to date has not been achieved. 

The history books will record the rise of AI as one of the defining technological achievements of our time. Research from PwC estimates that AI technology will contribute up to 16 trillion to the global economy by 2030. Their research also suggests that about half of this increase will come from companies enhancing existing products because AI will encourage more product variety. Greater personalization, aesthetics, and cost-effectiveness will also likely increase. However, companies who work with AI understand that while AI can change the market, AI has some inefficiencies that must be worked out first.

How do industries like healthcare allow potentially life-saving access to private information without compromising privacy or violating regulations? The conundrum between accessing information and its privacy and security is found in many industries, including healthcare. What can be done if accessing private information can help save lives, but hospitals must respect the HIPAA privacy rule? Homomorphic encryption, is available and can grant access to restricted information while completely respecting privacy and retaining security. Homomorphic encryption is an encryption scheme that allows analysis of the information to be performed on encrypted data, giving the same results

When Bitcoin was released in 2009 [1] everybody was mesmerized with the blockchain. It was an infinite and immutable ledger   capable of recording and validating thousands of currency transactions without the risk of being violated, a true decentralized broker available to anyone in the world to use.

It is not a surprise that Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are again in the spotlight and fast-growing in popularity. This is not the first time AR/VR has gone through this hype; back in 2016, with the release and success of Pokemon GO, these technologies gained a lot of popularity. 

Organizations need to access useful information about users or consumers while protecting their privacy. This, in addition to threats like data breaches, has led to a reconsideration of privacy from governments, organizations, and companies. One result of this reconsideration is the development of formal privacy models such as Differential Privacy. Please keep reading to learn more about differential privacy and how companies can use it effectively to bolster privacy and access to useful consumer information.
