Artisan, the San Francisco AI startup behind the “Stop Hiring Humans” billboards, says it has retired the slogan after two years. CEO Jaspar Carmichael-Jack apologized in a LinkedIn post and said the company’s new slogan is “Be More Human.” Artisan Artisan, the San Francisco AI startup behind the “Stop Hiring Humans” billboards that startled Bay Area commuters and helped make the company a viral name in tech says it was retiring its slogan. Artisan CEO Jaspar Carmichael-Jack said Thursday on LinkedIn that the company “officially retired the slogan after two years,” adding that “Artisan is a pro-human company.” The reversal marks a softer public turn for a company that built much of its early name recognition around one of the bluntest messages in the AI boom.  Artisan sells Ava, an AI business development representative that automates parts of sales, leads, messaging and booking meetings.

Welcome to HackerNoon’s Writing Prompts! Would you like to take a stab at answering some of these questions? The link for the template is HERE. 1. What is your company in 2-5 words? "Your recordings become LinkedIn authority." 2. Why is now the time for your company to exist? Three things converged in the last two years. First, because of covid years ago, everyone became comfortable with video calls. In order to capture the value of those calls, recording and transcribing tools became the norm. This means that every founder is sitting on an archive of their own expertise without having done anything deliberate to build it. Second, models got good enough to make editorial judgments rather than just summaries, so generating text stopped being the problem. What’s difficult now is deciding which moments are actually worth publishing, and that only became tractable recently. Third, standard AI used in isolation has stolen founders’ voices and pushed everyone towards the mean. Therefore, the people who sound the most human on LinkedIn will be the ones who win, and my method will help accomplish that. 3. What do you love about your team, and why are you the ones to solve this problem?

If you want to buy LinkedIn followers or likes, the provider you choose matters more than the number you order. I have compared five established services based on the things I would actually look at before placing an order: follower quality, delivery speed, pricing, account security, guarantees, customer support and overall value. Quick Pick My top choice is BoostMe, thanks to its unusually strong combination of transparent pricing, LinkedIn-specific services, fast delivery, refill protection and customer support. The other four are worth considering too, particularly if you want a different balance of price, targeting or service range. 1. BoostMe : Best place to buy LinkedIn followers and likes overall If I were choosing one provider from this list to get more LinkedIn followers , BoostMe would be my top recommendation. What immediately separates BoostMe is how clearly the service is presented. Instead of hiding the cost behind a quote or forcing you to navigate a complicated ordering process, BoostMe publishes its LinkedIn follower packages and prices upfront. Pricing and packages BoostMe offers transparent pricing structures with multiple tiers designed to provide a balance of quality, delivery speed, and secure growth for your LinkedIn profile. That makes the per-100 price progressively

Brian joined Yelp as an engineering intern in spring 2019. Seven years later, he’s an iOS engineer whose code shows up in the everyday moments diners and restaurant owners experience on Yelp. Today, Brian is sharing what that path has looked like, and why curiosity has been the throughline all along. Q: Tell us about your journey at Yelp. A: I joined Yelp as an engineering intern in spring 2019, building the onboarding experience for what’s now Guest Manager — the app restaurants use to run their front-of-house. I came back full-time that fall as an iOS engineer and have been on the restaurant side ever since, across three teams. I’m now on the Guest Experience Management team. Seven years, three teams, one constant: restaurants and the people who eat at them. First, I was focused on the tools restaurants use and now I’m focused on the experience diners have. What’s changed is the scope. From shipping my first onboarding screens to leading architecture work like our Kiosk network-layer refactor, I enjoy helping shape where our restaurant apps go next. Q: Tell us about your role at Yelp. What are you and your team responsible for? A: I’m an iOS

The Hudson Star-Observer launched a LinkedIn page, where readers can get updates with a focus on the local business community, the newspaper announced Tuesday. Since 1854 — through several name changes and other iterations — the paper has delivered news to the St. Croix County community. Today, the newspaper features a weekly print product and a five-day-per-week newsletter. The Star-Observer and the River Falls Journal operate under the same editorial team. Stories from both go into the Star-Observer's print edition, which hits newsstands every Thursday. The Star-Observer and River Falls Journal now operate out of KPT Collaborative, a coworking space located at 522 Second St. in Hudson. The Star-Observer continues to look for ways to reach a more digital audience, without conflicting with its current print and web product. In addition to new social media pages, the news outlet plans to roll out a video product in the coming months.  The Star-Observer will still post updates on its other platforms, including its Facebook page, but the LinkedIn page will be a new avenue for readers to stay informed. Unlike the other avenues, it will center on the Star-Observer's business coverage and other news that appeals to LinkedIn's core audience. Have a LinkedIn page?

 Ndamukong Suh says reputation can become part of the role you play. The former NFL player describes his reputation as hard-nosed, aggressive, and dirty. Suh says that later in his career, he came to understand that he occupied what he described as the league's "villain" role. Watch the full episode of his "Authorized Account": https://lnkd.in/ecr6QAPY Like Comment Transcript My reputation as an NFL player was, in my opinion, hardnose, aggressive. And misunderstood. I say the latter of misunderstood because I don't think people gave me an unbiased view. And it wasn't until later on in my career where I really understood. In the NFL, there is a pretty boy in the league. Cry, say Tom. There is a Golden Boy in the league, which you'd probably say Peyton, Manny. Then there's like the Angel of the league. You probably say Tim Tebow. And then there's the villain. And I was a villain just from a marketing perspective, learned a lot and being able to embrace that. There were some things that I did that were seen as very aggressive in that. I think ultimately some of the mistakes that I've I've had in my career that have kept that and

Announcing Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index v4.3, upgrading Terminal-Bench to v4 and adding AutomationBench-AA, an agentic workflow automation benchmark with a private test set. This is a continuation of our rollout of Intelligence Index v5 Changelog (Index v4.2 → Index v4.3): → Terminal-Bench: v2.1 → v4, completing our upgrade to the latest version of Terminal-Bench → Replacing 𝜏³-Banking with AutomationBench-AA, our implementation of Zapier’s business workflow automation benchmark We are continuing to prioritize keeping Intelligence Index as useful as possible by bringing forward a subset of the changes we had planned for Index v5. Each change in v4.2 and v4.3 stands on its own merits and brings the index closer to real-world problem solving, adds more private test sets to prevent gaming, and reduces saturation. Intelligence Index v4.3 raises the difficulty of agentic coding tasks and broadens the types of agentic workflows tested. Because we use a held-out test set for AutomationBench in collaboration with Zapier , the weight assigned to evaluations with private tasks or answers increases from 40% to 45%. Category weights are unchanged from v4.2: Agents 30%, Coding 20%, General 30%, Scientific Reasoning 20%.

Match reportGrace Fisk scores twice as Liverpool defeat Charlton in WSL opener Published 9 hours ago By Joe Urquhart Grace Fisk scored twice as Liverpool secured a 4-0 victory at Charlton Athletic in their Barclays Women’s Super League opener on Sunday. The Reds captain found the back of the net in either half of the game, while Vivien Endemann was also on the scoresheet on her competitive debut. Cornelia Kapocs then rounded out the result for Gareth Taylor’s team as she converted a penalty in added time at the end of the contest. Endemann and goalkeeper Khiara Keating were handed their first starts by head coach Taylor, while Sam Kerr returned from long-term injury to also begin the fixture. Liverpool applied early pressure to their hosts at The Valley with a succession of corners and dangerous attacks. And they earned the advantage after just eight minutes as their strong start paid off. A cross from Kapocs on the left byline wasn’t dealt with by goalkeeper Sophie Whitehouse in the six-yard box, allowing Fisk to fire home from in close. The Addicks responded with an opportunity of their own during a set-piece situation from the right side of the Liverpool half.

Bam Bewhutang for me is not just about the food, the dance, the beautiful culture or the celebration; It is about our people. It is about coming home, sitting together, sharing, and putting smiles on the faces of one another. This year’s celebration also marks the second edition of my Bewhutang outreach program. It follows the first edition I organised during last year’s festival. It is a tradition I am willing to continue because Bam Bewhutang gives us a special opportunity to reconnect with our people, share in their joy and make a meaningful difference in the lives of those around us. On Tuesday, I was happy to welcome about 300 of our mothers, widows, aged women and other vulnerable members of our community to my family compound in Ohong Village, Obudu Local Government Area . We shared laughter and celebrated together. I also supported them with cash and food items. But honestly, what touched me most was seeing the happiness on their faces, listening to their songs and receiving their prayers. Our mothers have done so much for us. Whenever we have the opportunity to show them love and remember them, we should never hesitate to do so. What
