As in-person events have made a strong comeback in recent years, event organizers are rethinking how to make their gatherings more accessible, inclusive, and profitable. Enter the Metaverse: a powerful way to extend the reach of physical events into virtual spaces, unlocking benefits that traditional formats simply can’t match.

In this post, we’ll explore how integrating a Metaverse platform like Virbela into your event strategy can break down barriers, engage a global audience, and open new streams of revenue.

AI doesn’t need a sci-fi upgrade to upend the economy—current models, and the cheaper, more capable versions already in the pipeline, are set to disrupt nearly every corner of the labor market. Their surprising performance across text, image, and video threatens to upend how work is done across the creative ranks of writers, designers, photographers, architects, animators, and brand advertisers, as well as the spreadsheet crowd of financial analysts, consultants, accountants, and tax preparers. Not even the credentialed bastions of law, medicine, or academia are safe: AI can sift through oceans of content and serve up bespoke advice or coursework at a fraction of today’s cost—and with quality that’s closing in fast.

Mientras muchos temen que la IA destruya empleos, nuevos datos muestran que está surgiendo un fenómeno diferente: los trabajadores que combinan su experiencia con herramientas de IA están ganando más, accediendo a mejores oportunidades y redefiniendo el mercado laboral. La IAGen está desplazando tareas rutinarias y de baja complejidad, pero al mismo tiempo está impulsando la demanda de trabajos relacionados con la IA y elevando los ingresos de quienes las saben utilizar... 

Graduates are seen as particularly vulnerable because entry-level jobs such as form-filling and basic data entry are strongly associated with the “drudge work” that AI systems – which perform tasks that typically have required human intelligence – could do instead.

Over the past two and a half years the availability of such positions has dropped by a third, and last month it was reported that graduates are facing the toughest UK job market since 2018.

The Guardian spoke to some of the UK’s biggest recruitment agencies and employment experts for their views on the impact of AI on current and future opportunities for those entering the jobs market. Here are six key takeaways from what they said:

Agents are already everywhere—and have been for many decades. Your thermostat is an agent: It automatically turns the heater on or off to keep your house at a specific temperature. So are antivirus software and Roombas. Like high-­frequency traders, which are programmed to buy or sell in response to market conditions, these agents are all built to carry out specific tasks by following prescribed rules. Even agents that are more sophisticated, such as Siri and self-driving cars, follow prewritten rules when performing many of their actions.

As AI matures, the availability of so-called “digital labor” is exploding, expanding the very definition of a qualified workforce. What was once the exclusive domain of human talent has now been joined by AI agents capable of handling many tasks once considered beyond the reach of automation—and as a result, according to Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff, the total addressable market for digital labor could soon reach the trillions of dollars.  

The rise in unemployment has worried many economists as well as officials at the Federal Reserve because it could be an early sign of trouble for the economy. It suggests businesses are holding off on hiring new workers because of rampant uncertainty stemming from the Trump administration’s tariff increases, which could slow growth.

“Young people are bearing the brunt of a lot of economic uncertainty,” Brad Hersbein, senior economist at the Upjohn Institute, a labor-focused think tank, said. “The people that you often are most hesitant in hiring when economic conditions are uncertain are entry-level positions.”

As the Wall Street Journal reports, the company's latest tools, including its wildly hallucinating AI Overviews and chatbot-style AI Mode, are causing the traffic being sent to publishers to plummet as users no longer feel the need to click through to the actual source of information, cutting already-slammed journalists off from ad revenue and subscriptions.

July 2025... mark this date because everything you think you know about AI is about to become obsolete. OpenAI recently tweeted "It's wild watching people use chat GPT knowing what's coming they know something we don't until now." Today I'm breaking down the most comprehensive analysis of GPT5 you'll find anywhere release dates capabilities that will make GPT4 look like a calculator and why even the experts are terrified of what they've created hey if we haven't met...

En este episodio de Muévete, el programa del cooperativismo, conversamos con el experto en tecnología James Lynn sobre el auge de la inteligencia artificial (IA) y su integración en la vida cotidiana. Discutimos por qué hay tantos "expertos" en redes, cómo esta tecnología ha evolucionado desde los años 80, su aplicación en dispositivos móviles, gobiernos y servicios cotidianos. Además, exploramos el futuro cercano de la IA, como los teléfonos sin apps, gafas inteligentes, y el metaverso. Una charla esencial para entender cómo la IA está transformando nuestras vidas.

We’ve all seen the predictions that AI will be hugely transformative for jobs and employment, but we’re just not quite sure how.

Since it became clear that machine learning and generative language models can handle much of today’s knowledge-based work, we’ve been trying to predict the long-term impact.

Pessimists warn of potential mass unemployment leading to societal collapse. Optimists predict a new age of augmented working, making us more productive and freeing us to focus on creativity and human interactions.

People often assume that the new will replace the old. On social media, stories offered an alternative to posts, niche apps were expected to grab more seats at the table, video came to replace text, and AI influencers have started pushing out content faster than real ones. 

It’s incredibly easy for businesses to jump the gun. 

But consumer attitudes and behaviors move slower than the technologies driving them, and can even start back-pedaling. As we’re going to see, old habits really do die hard. 

We don’t have a crystal ball - no one does. Instead, we’re serving up the top changes that have taken place over the last year, and suggesting ways for brands to prepare for what’s next. 

A mitad de 2025, empresas como Microsoft, Google, Amazon y Meta ya han recortado cerca de 94.000 empleos, no por crisis financiera, sino para acelerar su adopción de IA.La inteligencia artificial no está llegando al lugar de trabajo: ya está aquí, y está reconfigurando el núcleo operativo de las grandes tecnológicas. Según Final Round AI, cerca de 94.000 trabajadores del sector tecnológico han sido despedidos solo en la primera mitad de 2025. Pero esta no es otra ronda de recortes presupuestario

Economists have tried to map that meteor’s blast radius. Goldman Sachs pegs the exposure at 300 million full-time positions in advanced economies, roughly one quarter of all work done today. The World Economic Forum’s latest Future of Jobs survey expects 83 million roles eliminated and 69 million created by 2030… still a net loss big enough to fill every job in Texas. No crystal ball is perfect, yet the direction is clear: routine cognitive labor is going the way of the elevator operator.

SHOCKING PREDICTION: Every single job will be automated by 2040 - and we’re 50 YEARS ahead of schedule.

I just got off Dr. Phil’s show (@TheDrPhilPodcast) where I told millions of viewers that ALL human jobs will be completely replaced by AI by 2040. People are calling me crazy. Others are calling me a prophet.

But here’s the research that proves I’m right…
What You’ll Discover:

• The Stanford Study: 2,700 AI researchers predict complete job automation (and why we’re decades ahead of schedule)
• The 2025 Automation Cliff: Which jobs disappear THIS YEAR (hint: if you work at a computer, watch out).
• My $1M Business Pivot: How I sold my company in 2021 because I saw this tsunami coming.
• The 70% Depression Rate: Why most people HATE their jobs anyway (Gallup’s shocking findings).
• My 1-Hour Work Week: How AI runs my entire business while I focus on what matters.
• The 4-Phase Timeline: Exactly when each industry gets automated (2025-2040).
• Survival Strategy: How to become the conductor, not the instrument

Agentic AI isn’t exactly new. Agentic AI is a complex, autonomous system that uses a mix of technologies to achieve goals without relying on constant human input. It learns, perceives, reasons, plans and even makes decisions by combining:

The true power of Agentic AI isn’t just in automation; it’s in augmentation. While other types of AI are excellent tools for specific tasks, Agentic AI is uniquely suited to augment the workforce more broadly. Agents can mimic human reasoning, interactions and decision-making to effectively work alongside human employees, rather than just supporting them. When we blend human creativity with AI’s analytical capabilities, we create a workforce that’s greater than the sum of its parts.

Artificial Intelligence, climate change and shifting geopolitics are changing the way we live and work. Creating new customer needs and preferences. Forging new markets. Enabling new business models. Attracting new competitors. And blurring the boundaries of sectors and industries.

It’s time to look for growth in new places. It’s time to explore new domains of growth—markets where companies work across sector boundaries to meet fundamental human needs. Like how we feed and care for ourselves, move, make and build things, and how we fuel and power it all.

Data on employment outcomes for new graduates and young workers.

AI Agents can make the workplace more productive when fine-tuned for different personality types, but human co-workers pay a price in lost socialization, ongoing research by MIT information technology specialists has found.

MIT researchers led by Sinan Aral, a professor at the MIT Sloan School of Management and Harang Ju, a Sloan postdoc associate, found that humans using AI raised their productivity by 60%—partly because those workers sent 23% fewer social messages.

Según Julia McCoy, dentro de dos o tres años podríamos experimentar entre un 20% a 40% de desempleo en todos los sectores laborales debido a la llegada de GPT-5. Los trabajos relacionadoc con negocios, finanzas, administración, oficinas, diseño gráfico, ventas, programación, desarrollo softwares y conductores de vehículos pesados tienen altos niveles de exposición a la IA. Cuando estos trabajos desaparezcan, no será gradualmente, sino de la noche a la mañana.

Lamentablemente, los gobiernos están mal preparados. Ahora, el dilema es si son o no son capaces de diseñar un mundo que sea bueno para todos los ciudadanos. Los expertos consultados han dicho que este cambio tecnológico es diferente, parece más rápido, parece más difícil de adaptar, es más amplio. No hablamos solo de una industria que se vio alterada durante una década. A diferencia de las revoluciones tecnológicas anteriores que duraron décadas, esta está ocurriendo en meses.

• Los editores de vídeo están siendo reemplazados por IA que crea contenido con calidad de Hollywood por $17.
• Diseñadores gráficos automatizados por sistemas que funcionan más rápido de lo humanamente posible.
• Camioneros reemplazados por vehículos autónomos que ya circulan por las carreteras de Texas.
• Los programadores y desarrolladores, están siendo reemplazadas por IA que codifica mejor que ellos.

Mucha más gente está más en negación que preparándose. La mayoría de los trabajadores creen que esto no les afectará. La mayoría de las empresas no se están planificando. La mayoría de los gobiernos no están preparados en absoluto, pero a los sistemas de IA no les importa nuestra preparación. Están mejorando según un cronograma que va más allá de la Ley de Moore, no de los plazos de adaptación humana. Cuando GPT5 se lance en julio, esperamos una IA de nivel de doctorado que pueda superar a los humanos en la mayoría de las tareas cognitivas, no en algunas tareas, en la mayoría de las tareas.
