Here are some takeaways ⤵️

📅 What’s changed over the past year?

A bit random, but I'm proud to say I just completed a 4-day business trip using only my backpack!

Just got back from #CollisionConf in Toronto, a tech conference (*not* a dev conference) with 40k attendees.

I met over 100 lovely people and had lots of great conversations.

But OMG the hype around AI in the talks was overwhelming and dystopic. Investors and startups both ramping up the AI hype with the hopes that they'll get filthy rich. Very little substance or detail.

Still, there were a few cool AI tools, some I might start using.

I'll do a more thorough write-up in my newsletter soon..

Hey everyone! 🌟

It's the final day of #Collision Conference 2024, and I'll be roaming the floor today! If you missed me at booth A410 yesterday and want to learn more about co2.click's air quality sensor solutions, don't hesitate to stop me or drop me a note on the Collision App.

I'll be carrying our co2.click models C, X, and the prototype of model O. Come check them out and let me show you our amazing cloud portal capabilities!

Looking forward to connecting! 👋
