The US Federal Trade Commission warns against QR code scams that can take control of smartphones, make fraudulent charges, or obtain personal information. Scammers are targeting QR codes on parking lot kiosks, leading to look-alike sites that funnel funds to fraudulent accounts.
Dropbox faces backlash after enabling a default setting that shares user data with OpenAI for AI-powered search, but assures data is only shared when actively used and is deleted within 30 days. CEO Drew Houston apologizes for customer confusion and emphasizes that no customer data is automatically sent to third-party AI services.
Data projects often fail to deliver real-life impact due to macro-elements such as data availability, skillset, timeframe, organizational readiness, and political environment. The availability and accessibility of relevant data are fundamental, and if data is unattainable, the feasibility of the project should be reconsidered.
Getir, the ultrafast grocery delivery pioneer, has implemented an end-to-end workforce management system using Amazon Forecast and AWS Step Functions, resulting in a 70% reduction in modelling time and a 90% improvement in prediction accuracy. This comprehensive project calculates courier requirements and solves the shift assignment problem, optimizing shift schedules and minimizing missed orders.
