AI for Good develops humanitarian projects using ChatGPT and rivals

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- An NGO called AI For Good is utilizing the immense power of ChatGPT, Bard, Bing, Neeva, and similar programs, to teach ordinary AI users to quickly and efficiently create new approaches to problems ranging from helping to prevent water-borne disease in areas affected by the recent earthquakes in Turkey and Syria to helping disenfranchised Afghan women overcome cultural isolation in their homeland.

"This new generation of AI tools is allowing us to approach difficult humanitarian, technical, and economic challenges in hundreds of new ways," says co-founder Svetlana Shevchenko. "When combined with the most advanced tools from social media, smart phone apps, and the web, we can create projects in 15 minutes which before November of 2022 would have taken days."

According to CIO John Toomey, the group teaches members to create what they call 'AHAs,' or 'AI Hero's Adventures,' incorporating AI-derived directives with Facebook and Linkedin groups, news releases, and weekly brainstorming sessions on Zoom to build momentum for projects. Zooms may be hosted by students from Stanford, Harvard, Berkeley, Oxford, and Cambridge. They publicize these meetings on the GAIN system, which stands for Good AI Network.

"We insist that users learn to create these programs in 30 minutes or less," says Toomey, "because doing so builds the skills to have a real impact on the challenges quickly. The Zooms help because they make each mind-mapping session a social occasion. The 'heavy lifting' is done by the AIs."

Says AI for Good's VP Soani Gunawan, "Through powerful but easily available tech, we allow our participants to execute their own Hero's Journeys, in just a few minutes. And the skills and attitudes developed are readily transferable to the corporate, academic, government, and non-profit worlds."

Some of AI for Good's Board members previously contributed to video challenges run by TikTok For Good, including one called #EduTok, which resulted in a total of 8.8 million videos, and 41 billion views. Teams calculated that for every 100,000 views, 75 startups were founded, 125 patents were applied for, and 20 non-profits came into being. They'd like to replicate these results around the globe, supercharged by the vast power of the new Generative AIs. ( see https://www.tiktok.com/forgood ).

By mid-2023, they plan to host live brainstorming and mind mapping sessions devoted to issues within each of the 17 UN Sustainability goals. They will also conduct a challenge BETWEEN AIs: Google's Bard, Microsoft's Bing, and Baidu's soon-to-be-released 'Ernie' will compete to evolve the best solutions to the same UN challenges.

Other current projects address the transmission of vector-borne tropical diseases, resource allocation for eventual Lunar and Martian colonies, flood control in Bangla Desh, literacy in war-torn and earthquake-ravaged Syria, and the development of Entrepreneurship in East Africa.

Later this year the group will confer upon 17 accomplished creators the first Gaia Awards, whose name recognizes both the Mythic concept of Goddess Earth as a unitary organism, and the acronym G.A.I.A: Good AI Awards.

AI for Good uses ChatGPT to address UN Challenges, Solve Enterprise Problems

KYIV, Ukraine /ScoopCloud/ -- A Ukraine and U.S.-based NGO called AI For Good is utilizing the immense power of ChatGPT and similar programs, to quickly and efficiently address problems ranging from predicting the targets of upcoming Russian missile and drone attacks on Ukrainian civilians, to helping Afghan women overcome cultural isolation in their homeland.

"This new generation of AI tools is allowing us to approach difficult humanitarian, technical, and economic challenges in hundreds of new ways," says co-founder Svetlana Shevchenko. "The vast power of these programs will inevitably be used by many entities, some of whom may be bad actors. So it behooves those of us who really want to build planet-friendly projects to optimize their use."

AI for Good began by developing projects addressing the UN's 17 Sustainability Goals. The group notes that ChatGPT has been overwhelmingly transformative, but so have other things like group brainstorming programs and instant text-to-video software.

These have evolved into a series of multi-step protocols which conclude with Zoom mind mapping sessions to refine successful results. Sometimes these results include hundreds of videos posted to YouTube, TikTok and Instagram Reels, which makes it simpler than ever to mount a social movement, according to AI for Good's CIO John Toomey.

"For the first time in human history, we can quickly build living, practically eternal and infinitely replicable planetary improvement projects at the conjunction of human and artificial intelligence, which categorize and classify the biggest challenges to Humanity. We can divide them into achievable tasks to inspire people to give their all to solve them, and utilize the limitless power of modern tech to find solutions. They work because we ally ourselves with the algorithms of the social media and video platforms themselves," says AI for Good's vice president Soani Gunawan. "Through powerful but easily available tech, we allow our participants to execute their own Hero's Journeys. And the skills and attitudes developed are readily transferable to the corporate, academic, government, and non-profit worlds."

Before the war in Ukraine, many of AI for Good's members worked as corporate consultants, helping companies and NGOs improve their messaging, advertising, employee retention, product development, and marketing. The abilities they have developed with the humanitarian, educational and environmental causes have enhanced their skill sets for business.

Some of AI for Good's people previously contributed to video challenges run by TikTok For Good, including one called #EduTok, which resulted in a total of 8.8 million videos, and 41 billion views. Teams calculated that for every 100,000 views, 75 startups were founded, 125 patents were applied for, and 20 non-profits came into being. They'd like to replicate these results around the globe (see https://www.tiktok.com/forgood).

By mid-2023, they plan to have brainstorming and mind mapping sessions devoted to issues within each of the 17 UN challenges. They are also creatina worldwide online Hackathon; both of these will run 24-7. The number of projects created by 2024 may well be in the thousands.

The latest completed program is an online "Sher Jangi," or poetry contest, a wildly popular pastime in Afghanistan. ChatGPT replicated the style of 17th century female Afghani writers, turned ideas about women's empowerment into verse, and translated all of them into Pashto, Farsi, and Uzbek. The entire project took 35 minutes. The few Taliban who witnessed the results were reportedly impressed (see https://www.afghanwomenrising.org/).

Other current projects address the transmission of vector-borne tropical diseases, resource allocation for eventual Lunar and Martian colonies, flood control in Bangla Desh, literacy in war-torn Syria, and the development of Entrepreneurship in East Africa.

Later this year the group will confer upon 17 accomplished creators the first Gaia Awards, whose name recognizes both the Mythic concept of Goddess Earth as a unitary organism, a view pioneered by naturalist James Lovelock, and the acronym G.A.I.A: Good AI Awards.

Acoem’s acoustic threat detection technology helps detect gunshots and assists in multiple arrests of shooters in Edenton, North Carolina

EDENTON, N.C. /ScoopCloud/ -- The Edenton Police Department has partnered with Acoem USA to implement Acoustic Threat Detection (ATD) technology to combat the community's recent increase in gun violence incidents. These real-time alerts triggered by ATD sensors notify police precisely when and where gun violence incidents occur.

This results in a faster, more accurate response to the scene to better recover evidence, interview witnesses and tend to gunshot victims.

Edenton, N.C. was one of the first communities in the state to use this ATD. The town installed 15 ATD sensors during the summer of 2021. With Acoem's technology able to localize a threat with one sensor, the scalability allowed this small town the opportunity to have big-city technology on a lower budget.

To date, its success in the public arena has been unmatched. In its first year of deployment, the Acoem ATD system detected 100 percent of the gunshots within its detection range with video evidence of a vehicle in a drive-by shooting. Most recently, on October 31, 2022, an Acoem sensor detected and alerted that multiple shots were fired in Edenton. Video evidence helped to identify and consequently arrest two shooters within 24 hours.

"We're committed to creating a community that allows its citizens to feel safe so that they can go about their lives," Henry King, Chief of Police, Town of Edenton, N.C., says. "Acoem's ATD is one part of our overall community-first policing plan and having technology like this in our tool belt keeps us one step ahead of criminals."

Acoem ATD systems are built to fit the end users' needs and work with their existing VMS, dispatch and other alerting software in use. With Acoem ATD systems, there's no intermediary. The end user controls their program.

"It was simple to integrate into our existing camera system and gives us the control we need to get alerts immediately," King adds.

ATD can be mounted just about anywhere. Walls and light poles are common examples, but they can adapt to any location due to their flexible mounting capabilities.

"Gunshot detection is not a new technology in the security market, but with Acoem being one of the original innovators of gunshot detection over three decades ago, our ATD sensor has a big advantage over competitors," Mike Arnold, sales manager for Acoem, says.

Acoem's technology is paired with a PTZ camera to not only provide an alert, location and audio, but also to give first responders a look at what is happening at the scene by moving the camera in the direction of the threat as it's detected.

"That situational awareness can be a force multiplier in an active situation," Arnold says. "Along with our AI, scalability and giving the end user ownership and control over their system, Acoem can be a game changer for our communities, schools and in everyday life."

Artificial Intelligence in Performance Marketing: UCLIQ Believes Its AI-Based Traffic Delivery and Multi-Layer Fraud Prevention That Can Reshape the Industry

PRAGUE, Czech Republic /ScoopCloud/ -- UCLIQ is set to change the future of Performance Marketing with its AI Traffic Delivery and Fraud Prevention. The developers claim their platform can help other businesses instantly target only relevant audiences and detect 53% more fraud.

Artificial Intelligence has irrevocably changed the world we know, and Performance Marketing is no exception.

Due to innovative AI developments, many affiliate and performance marketing platforms already enable businesses to unearth more detailed data on their success, analyze campaigns, and discover possible customers.

But those advanced AI solutions that yesterday were enough to successfully scale and outperform competitors today turn out to be insufficient.

The UCLIQ team believes that businesses seeking to do well in the highly competitive digital space should focus on AI solutions capable of resolving two types of issues - the quality of traffic delivered and protection from fraudsters.

Alex Rand, CEO at UCLIQ, says: "Growing a business in the era of constant breakthroughs requires more than finances and skills. To my mind, to develop and prosper, every modern business needs to be backed by technologies helping improve traffic quality and combat ever-evolving fraud."

Strong in its beliefs, the team at UCLIQ has leveraged all its experience and expertise in AI and Performance Marketing to present its innovative artificial intelligence marketing tools - Smart Traffic Delivery and Multi-Layer Fraud Prevention.

Smart Traffic Delivery System: Overview:

Smart Traffic Delivery is a marketing tool based on AI-powered algorithms to help businesses target the relevant audience intelligently.

Traditionally, a marketing campaign aiming at driving traffic to a business would include digital ads or social media posts across various platforms with the hope that prospects would find the brand and complete the deal.

However, such an approach ignores customers' behavior before and after the campaign, requires the marketing department to analyze all the activity, and stretches the budget.

Unlike conventional techniques, Smart Traffic Delivery examines individual customer behavioral trends, applies mathematical analysis and inductive statistics, and automates multiple repetitive tasks.

This, in turn, enables businesses to monitor all kinds of engagement 24/7, modify campaigns at any time, and maximize their effectiveness without marketing managers' participation and extra expenses.

Also, rich customer insights obtained from AI-driven campaigns allow businesses to create a personalized user experience by autonomously generating relevant content that can appear in front of the right people on the right platforms at the right time.

Multi-Layer Fraud Prevention: Overview:

Multi-Layer Fraud Prevention is another UCLIQ tool designed to improve the quality of traffic.

"Digital space on a par with multiple possibilities to grow has spawned many new forms of fraud. And without proper affiliate fraud protection, a business can quickly lose its position under the growing amount of malicious activity," considers Alex Rand.

The Multi-Layer Fraud Prevention system makes the perfect blend of intelligence and speed. Based on complex AI algorithms and machine learning, it empowers multi-layer traffic scanning by following several metrics at a time.

On top of that, the longer the tool runs with historical and real-time data, the more precise the affiliate fraud detection will be. As per developers, the accuracy can be improved by 53%.

Noteworthy Milestones Achieved with UCLIQ:

Since its introduction to the public market, UCLIQ has managed to detect numerous cases of malicious activity and improve the quality of traffic due to its smart technology and AI analysis.

One of UCLIQ's longest-served customers, Trafee Machine - a CPA affiliate network - while working with over 50K publishers and processing millions of impressions per day, improved its ROI by over 30% by employing advanced Fraud Prevention and Smart Traffic Delivery tools.

In addition, UCLIQ noted that due to its AI-powered tools, Trafee received 100% improvement in specific verticals and 42% improvement in EPM on average.

About UCLIQ:

UCLIQ is a new-age performance marketing platform designed to help CPA networks, startups, and media buyers to intelligently run their affiliate businesses, thanks to AI-driven traffic delivery, 3-layer Fraud Prevention, and Smartlinks that do their job the proper way.

With a clear goal to let everyone improve their business outcomes, UCLIQ always does its best to provide solutions tailored to understand what works better.

AI-Based Transit Signal Prioritization Helps Buses in Silicon Valley Get Residents Living in Zero-Vehicle Households to Destinations Faster

SANTA CLARA, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- The City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County C/CAG) and the Intelligent Transit Signal Prioritization (iTSP) project partners have successfully completed a pilot project that demonstrated a positive impact on improved transit performance in East Palo Alto, Sustainable Silicon Valley (SSV) announced today.

* Without iTSP, buses stop at traffic signals 70% of the time.

* With iTSP deployed at key traffic intersections, buses spent less time idling and got riders to their destinations faster and more efficiently.

* Fact Sheet about the iTSP project - https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1-nIZmFkuuJ-Ow0W5MInB2zu4_eGYtu8l

With funding from C/CAG, Sustainable Silicon Valley (SSV) formed a coalition of public and private stakeholders including San Mateo County Transit District (SamTrans), the City of East Palo Alto and technology company LYT, to deliver intelligent transit priority along congested arteries in transit-dependent communities. The City of East Palo Alto is a place where such improvements are most needed and can potentially improve the quality of life for residents.

SSV successfully led the pilot project, creating a blueprint for future investments in regional bus systems. The SSV/ LYT team will present the project findings in a Special Presentation to the City of East Palo Alto City Council at the September 20th, 2022, City Council meeting.

The efficiency of local transit has a direct impact on communities such as East Palo Alto which is designated as an Equity Priority Community by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC). This designation is in part due to the number of Zero-Vehicle Households, meaning households that do not own a personal vehicle making it a challenge to get to work, school, etc. In East Palo Atlo, 9% of households do not have a vehicle compared to 6% countywide in San Mateo.

For the pilot project, the coalition deployed LYT's Artificial Intelligence-powered Transit Signal Priority (TSP) technology, called LYT.transit, on a corridor consisting of four signalized intersections in East Palo Alto. This corridor is a subsection of SamTrans route 281 and includes the following intersections: University Ave. at Bay Rd., Runnymede St., Bell St., and Donohoe St.

The iTSP deployment on University Ave. yielded a significant positive impact on several key performance indicators:

* iTSP reduced northbound intersection delays by 45% and southbound intersection delays by 19%.

* These reductions translate to 18% and 7% reductions in travel time for northbound and southbound respectively.

Bringing cities, agencies and tech together around some of the big challenges facing under-represented communities is itself a powerful tool.

"SSV is recognized for creating unique partnerships and we are pleased to identify a solution for a systemic transit issue in East Palo Alto with LYT's innovative technology and introduce SamTrans to an AI-powered TSP solution that scales for wider deployment," said SSV Board Chair Andrew (Drew) Clark.

LYT is a cloud-based software platform that uses state-of-the-art connected vehicle and machine learning technologies to prioritize the flow of vehicles in a city and across a corridor. By optimizing public transport, emergency and other vehicles it enables shorter travel times, less congestion, improved air quality and more reliable mass transit.

To learn more about the iTSP project and SSV, contact Drew Clark at AirQuality@sustainablesv.org.

Metaversing Addresses Climate Change and other UN Goals with AI Brainstorming

CAMBRIDGE, U.K. /ScoopCloud/ -- A new series of techniques and stratagems aimed at achieving a sustainable future for the Earth is being pioneered by researchers from groups like This is Zero Hour, Earth Guardians, and the Indigenous Environmental Network, as well as students from Oxford, Harvard, Cambridge, and Stanford. Called Metaversing, it differs from what is commonly known as the 'Metaverse' in that it starts from a serious consideration of what planet and people need most right now, rather than from considering future uses of technologies like AR and VR in and for themselves.

According to CTO Savannah Partridge, "We as a species need to use whatever methods are most capable of efficiently addressing issues like Climate Change, and we need to do it immediately."

Throughout 2022 Zoom meetings have been held to address the UN's 17 Agenda for Sustainability Goals using Mind mapping AI software including generateideas.ai. This program accesses 174 billion parameters derived from the Web, and when used by a trained group on a video call, incites brainstorms that can instigate fresh perspectives on current Sustainability issues.

Part of the program's appeal is that it seeks to evoke several basic emotional motivations among Zoom call participants, which make the online brainstorms resemble a mental and emotional experience something like a classic Hero's Journey. "Between 200,000 and 50,000 years ago, our ancestors roamed across the African savannahs in small bands. Each tribal member probably was called upon daily to contribute efforts towards solving serious problems faced by the group, including finding food and water, dealing with illness, and avoiding predation.

"Our Metaversing groups seem to duplicate the spirit of these ancient peoples, in that every Zoom call participant has an equal opportunity to suggest, develop, and refine solutions using the AI software," says Metaversing's Partnerships Director Soani Gunawan. "During most sessions we actively invoke affect-driven motivational experiences like laughter, compassion, friendly competition, gratitude, awe, curiosity, crowdsourced experiments, and communal teamwork to enhance the Mind Mapping. This leads to more effective solution-finding, and makes the process more fulfilling for all."

Because Metaversing posits that saving Earth from existential crises like Climate Change requires motivations tailored to every basic human need, it sees environmental improvement and personal growth as both equal in importance and interdependent. "The things we can do to effect a sustainable future can be personally rewarding, growth-inducing, and even fun" says the group's Education coordinator John Toomey. Eventually the group plans to host hundreds of online brainstorming sessions all over the world.

Successful projects created by participants are eligible to win Metaversing's Hero Award, conferred upon those who develop the best solutions for one of the UN's Sustainability Goals. Their prize consists of carbon credits obtained from providers including https://terrapass.com/ and https://marketplace.goldstandard.org/.

SIERA.AI Leads the Way with Preemptive Accident Control for Industrial Lift Trucks with Real-Time Access to Data and Assets

AUSTIN, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- Connected Industrial Mobility leader, SIERA.AI, announced the advancement of the telemetry Dashboard for remote visibility and monitoring to drive efficiencies and reduce lift truck accidents.

Operational connectivity continues to grow as manufacturing, warehouse and distribution centers seek to improve mobile safety, efficiencies and agility. As the collection of data evolves toward proactivity, lift truck safety systems are required to capture data further up the incident process. A solution is needed to connect and track the growing number of lift trucks, incidents and influx of new workers.

To advance the identification of lift truck incidents, SIERA.AI's Near Miss Tracking is a key indicator for potential injuries, accidents or fatalities. In 2021, SIERA.AI tracked 1.1 million near misses and high, medium and low impacts, a collective result of real-time customer incidents. A further breakdown includes 12,300 pedestrian near misses and 27,400 object near misses. The analysis of the near miss tracking results shows the 'who' and 'where' so safety, facility and plant managers can determine the 'why' and preempt further incidents from occurring.

"Our customers are taking on critical mobile safety challenges. As they take on these challenges, companies demand a forklift safety solution that captures information further up the accident process," said Saurav Agarwal, Founder and CEO, SIERA.AI. "We're empowering our customers with critical data to understand the movements and challenges to achieve a zero-accident environment."

To further empower fleet and maintenance managers' ability to control non-production lift trucks and OSHA failed forklift inspections, SIERA.AI's enhanced Forklift Access Control, prevents unauthorized individuals from powering and operating a lift truck. The controls are situated in the telemetry online Dashboard for remote access and shut down.

"There are many reasons to shut down a forklift in production. For our customers, if a forklift fails an OSHA forklift inspection, management can automatically give an audio and visual notification to the forklift driver that they have 30, 42 or 61 seconds to pull over in a safe way to park the vehicle," said Suhas Ajuha, COO, SIERA.AI. "All controls are easy to find and use ensuring urgency is taken when a situation arises."

Fanplayr Launches PrivacyID to Address New Privacy Laws and Upcoming Ban on Third-Party Cookies

PALO ALTO, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Fanplayr, a global leader in online behavioral personalization, artificial intelligence and user privacy, announced the introduction of its new anonymized user identification solution PrivacyID.

According to a UNCTD report COVID-19 accelerated the growth of e-commerce with more business being conducted online than ever before, including the use of sensitive data. As data breaches continue, privacy is a growing concern for most users on the web. At the same time, Google continues its plan to phase out third-party "cookies," making it harder for online businesses and advertisers to track web users. Companies also must adhere to expanding state laws outlining user data protections and the penalties for breaches in user privacy.

Fanplayr's propriety solution, PrivacyID, protects user data by assigning user identifiers and anonymizing the information collected, allowing customers to access the information without breaking privacy regulations or compromising user security.

According to Rajiv Sunkara, CTO and co-founder of Fanplayr, privacy regulations and data breaches are growing concerns for most businesses. "Consent regulations are evolving and difficult to manage," says Sunkara. "The changing landscape unfortunately has led to less accurate business analytics, reduced ability to identify visitors, and has dialed back some of the developments in user experience. We developed PrivacyID specifically to solve these issues."

The technology behind PrivacyID is unique in that it allows for seamless use of the anonymized information, giving providers of third-party services access to the data while keeping it protected so there's no disruption of integration with their services. Data is collected continuously any time a user interacts with a customer's website or any of their third-party services such as SMS and email providers. Administration is simple with customers using a single dashboard to manage user identifier access within their organization and third-party service organizations.

"After more than a decade of providing personalization and artificial intelligence solutions to our customers, we're confident PrivacyID will solve some of the pain points that have evolved with recent changes in regulations," says Simon Yencken, CEO and co-founder of Fanplayr. "Our primary objective is to allow our customers to move forward with the advancements we've made in user experience and sales conversion, while maintaining the utmost integrity of their user data."

Fanplayr has been granted provisional patent protection on the technology behind PrivacyID and will test the system with a select group of customers in 2021.

It also guides them to take actions to improve their access to mortgage financing and select mortgage originators with whom they want to share their application information based on an AI algorithm that predicts probability to close.

"TMC understands that progressive approaches to addressing fair lending and bridging the homeownership gap are needed, and the unique access the Fund provides to TMC's network of prominent industry lenders will be vital in helping Home Lending Pal build a process that de-identifies HMDA data until after the underwriting decision is made," Bryan Young, co-founder and CEO of Home Lending Pal, said. "This revolutionary technology allows underwriting data to be digitally validated while using a single upload of documentation to enable multiple lenders across the country to determine if they will work with the borrower without human biases from the upfront disclosure of age, sex or race."

"Financial inclusion must start with equal access, borrower data empowerment, and personalized education without sales pressure," said Steven Better, co-founder and COO of Home Lending Pal. "Home Lending Pal reduces origination friction for qualified borrowers and allows personalized roadmaps for unqualified borrowers to become qualified. I am excited to work with TMC to modernize the process by emphasizing fair lending and putting people first."

"The mortgage industry is embracing the idea of providing educational financial resources to consumers long before they begin their home buying journey and seek out lenders for financing options. Home Lending Pal exemplifies this concept by providing a much-needed solution to a pervasive issue," said Jonathan Freed, Managing Partner of Holland Mortgage Advisors and one of the Fund's participating Limited Partners. "We are excited by Home Lending Pal's cutting edge technology and the opportunity to collaborate with their forward-thinking team to improve access to home financing solutions by all consumers."

Orlando-based Angel Syndicate Bluewave Investment Partners, CMFG Ventures, Dallas Cowboys linebacker Jaylon Smith, and CMFG Ventures Discovery Fund are other notable investors who joined the round. Home Lending Pal has raised $3.5 million to date for its digital mortgage advising platform, powered by artificial intelligence and blockchain. Home Lending Pal will demonstrate the next phase to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) in early September and release it to the public for consumer use and feedback by late September.

The Limited Partners of the TMC Emerging Technology Fund consist of some of the most technology-forward lender members of TMC who evaluate and invest in companies looking to advance the mortgage industry. The Fund continues to look for investment opportunities that will result in higher profitability and business process improvement for TMC lender members.

Modern Art Cartel Pushes the Boundaries of Art and Technology

TORONTO, Ontario /ScoopCloud/ -- What do you get when you mix multidisciplined, modern artists from around the world with a cutting-edge blend of technology and art? You get Modern Art Cartel. Modern Art Cartel is at the forefront of combining art with technology and has developed the world's first AI digital artist, MysterioAI, that creates engaging NFTs (non-fungible token) or collectible digital assets. In addition, its events employ RFID and QR Technology to deliver immersive, in-person art experiences.

This newly-created collective of contemporary artists has a mission to help businesses, developers, interior designers and homeowners create inspirational spaces through modern art. And, NFTs are just one of the collections that's taking the art design world by storm.

Modern Art Cartel looks for artists that push the boundaries, concepts, ideas, mediums, technology and talent. They then hand select and invite those artists to join the Modern Art Cartel collective. It typically recruits artists through social media, industry events and referrals.

Once an artist has been added to the collective, Modern Art Cartel handles what most artists eschew - the business end of things. It manages all of their sales, marketing and operations, so they can focus on doing what they love - creating art.

Artists in the Modern Art Cartel work in a variety of mediums with different materials and styles. Many of its artists have received major media coverage and multiple awards. In fact, "Art Business News" recently added Modern Art Cartel to its list of "Top 40 Artists" to Watch."

"I created the Modern Art Cartel along with my long-time friend, Rafael Scasserra. We did it because of our love of art," Mark D'Onofrio, CEO, Modern Art Cartel, says.

Scasserra is an artist and technology entrepreneur and the two are now working to curate an incredibly talented group of what D'Onofrio refers to as "art misfits."

"Each artist has a personal style and is focused on changing the art game," D'Onofrio adds. "We're pushing the boundaries of art through our creations, materials, collaborations and technology innovations and I'm excited about what the future holds."

About Modern Art Cartel

Modern Art Cartel curates, designs and sells modern art. It partners with interior designers, developers, businesses and home owners to create amazing spaces that dazzle. It's been featured on major media outlets such as Bravo, Living Luxe and Global News and is a platinum art sponsor for HGTV Canada in 2021/2022. It also sells its unique art online.

SAN CLEMENTE, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Kennedy Intelligence Data (KID) with its partner SQREEM Technologies Pte. Ltd. developed and executed a program for Toyota of San Bernardino with its proprietary artificial intelligence (AI) technology to increase the success of the dealership's digital advertising campaigns.
