  • A few thoughts on life, fiction and artificial intelligence
    I wonder about life sometimes. Should I accept it is a gift, calm down and enjoy myself a bit? Or should I look at it as a competition? A fight to the top, where I can be the best version of myself? Both approaches have their strengths and weaknesses. Balance is key. Balance is hard […]

  • Why Digital Advertising Agencies Suck at Acquisition and are in Dire Need of an AI Assisted Upgrade
    Are you happy with digital marketing agency? I mean sure, they are great for creating “awareness” but how often do they result in conversions or even a solid lead? Unless you are marketing FMCG goods like cherry flavoured cola, traditional digital marketing agencies can be sinkhole for cash without any significant ROI. This is especially […]

  • Maybe Trump isn’t Such a Bad Guy?
    Being a huge fan of the show “The Apprentice”, the catchphrase “You’re Fired” and many of his memorable cameos in pop-culture from my childhood,  I have been excited about Donald Trump’s presidential campaign from the very start. Even though I didn’t want to admit it to myself, I secretly wanted him to win the Republican […]

  • The Age of Filter-bubbles
    We live in the age of “filter-bubbles”. A whimsical name for a phenomenon that could have far-reaching and dangerous implications. But before I dig deeper into the concept of filter-bubbles, let’s look at a few incidents that are relevant.

  • A world gone mad
    Seems to me these days the world has gone into full retard mode. In the same world where people are dying from horrific terrorist attacks every other day, we have people obsessing over Kim K vs Taylor Swift feud on SnapChat. We literally have people dying, while trying to catch virtual Pokemons superimposed on the […]
