"We produced the same order twice last month.
Not because someone measured wrong.
Because nobody checked if the measurements
actually form the right shape." 😬

That's what I keep hearing from manufacturers.
Heights, edges, diagonals. All correct individually.
All wrong together.

The spreadsheet said OK.
Reality said otherwise.

💡 That's not a people problem.
That's a missing step in the process.

🌵We build 3D validation tools for made-to-order manufacturers.

✏️ Our validator takes your existing measurements, builds the 3D shape in real time, and flags mismatches before anything goes to production. Your client sees what they're ordering before you cut a single piece.

🌟 No new software to learn.
No disruption to your team.
Just a validation layer where there wasn't one.

On November 27th, we took part in POZITIVE TECH at the Great Hall of CK Zamek in Poznań: a one-day Tech Week event that brought together industry leaders to discuss real challenges and the future direction of IT.

A standout moment was the talk by Prof. Andrzej Dragan on AI. Highly recommended as well as his new book: "Quo vAIdis".

In just three years since its launch, ChatGPT has transformed the way we work and learn.

▶️ 700 million weekly active users, about 10% of the world’s adult population. 🌍

▶️ 18 billion messages per week, that’s 29,000 per second! ⚡

▶️ 73% of usage is non-work related: education, daily life, creativity.
Top topics: practical guidance, information seeking, writing (80% of conversations).

▶️ At work, writing and text editing dominate (~40% of work-related messages).

▶️ Coding? Only 4% of messages.

▶️ Emotional support & personal relationships: 2.5%.

▶️ Users under 26 account for nearly half of all activity, yet adoption is growing steadily across all age groups.

💡 Key takeaway: ChatGPT delivers its greatest value as a tool for decision-making and communication both at work and beyond.

An interesting report on the future of jobs.

🤖 Technological progress, particularly in artificial intelligence (AI), big data, and cybersecurity, will be a key factor shaping the labor market, leading both to the creation and reduction of jobs.
⚙️ On one hand, the largest job growth is expected in sectors like healthcare, education, and roles related to logistics and construction. On the other hand, roles such as cashiers, postal workers, and bank clerks are most at risk of reduction due to automation and the implementation of AI.
💡 In addition to technical skills, there is a growing demand for soft skills such as critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration.
🚀 In Poland, broadening digital access is seen as a key trend driving labor market changes by 2030. The impact of this trend is evident in firms’ expectations regarding changing skills demand, with employers unanimously anticipating increased need for AI and big data skills.

Groundbreaking Achievement in Quantum Memory: Impact on the development of AI

💡 Recently, Polish quantum physicist Dr. Michał Parniak made a groundbreaking achievement by developing the fastest quantum memory in the world. His work at the Quantum Memories Laboratory, University of Warsaw, has the potential to revolutionize various fields, including quantum communication and cryptography.

➡️ This innovative quantum memory enables ultra-fast storage and retrieval of information, which is crucial for the future of quantum networks. These networks could offer unprecedented levels of communication security.

➡️ Dr. Parniak’s achievement is particularly significant as it surpasses other available technologies, including those from China, previously considered leaders in the field. This breakthrough is pivotal for advancing sophisticated cryptographic systems that are resistant to quantum computer attacks.

Dr. Parniak's research has significant implications for artificial intelligence (AI):
⚙️ Quantum Computing: Accelerates AI algorithms by enabling quantum computers to process vast datasets efficiently.
🔒 Data Security: Enhances the security of sensitive data in AI systems through advanced quantum cryptography.
🔍 Sensing and Signal Processing: Improves the precision of AI-enhanced sensors in critical monitoring.
🤖 Machine Learning Models: Facilitates the development of quantum-based AI models to solve complex problems.
