If you’ve paid attention to nearly any AI advancement over the past few years, you’ve probably heard the word “ superintelligence ” thrown around. So what does that actually mean? What is superintelligence? In simple terms, superintelligence refers to an artificial intelligence that’s smarter than humans. Not just a little bit smarter—but way beyond our best scientists, artists or strategists across the globe. It’s the idea of AI that can outperform us in basically every intellectual task: reasoning, creativity, planning, even understanding emotions and human behavior. Currently, we’re still in the “narrow AI” stage, with systems that excel in specific tasks , such as generating text, recognizing images or playing chess. Superintelligence, on the other hand, would be the next leap, a kind of AI that could improve itself, design better versions of itself and rapidly surpass human intelligence. It’s both exciting and a little scary. On the one hand, a superintelligent AI could solve ...

Clara Infante never thought she would become one of those women who complained about sleep. For years, she could fall asleep quickly and sleep through anything. But after having three children, everything changed. The combination of disrupted sleep from babies, her husband’s increasingly loud snoring and her own heightened sensitivity to noise created a streak of long, sleepless nights. What started as an occasional night on the couch eventually became a nightly routine. Although sleeping on the sofa was a regular thing, it wasn’t until Infante and her husband moved to a bigger house that their separate sleeping arrangements really solidified. Infante’s husband suggested she try sleeping in their new guest room instead of on the couch, and she had one of the best nights of sleep. That simple move led to a distinct shift in their marriage.  What is a sleep divorce? A sleep divorce doesn’t involve lawyers or custody battles; it only involves separate sleeping arrangements.

When I was a college student, I was bombarded by solicitors who wanted me to apply for a credit card. I thought I was being smart by declining them all because I didn’t want to get into a bad habit of charging expenses that I wouldn’t be able to pay off.  But the summer after I graduated, I was headed to Europe and I couldn’t find a company that offered me a line of credit because I didn’t have any credit history. Eventually, I was able to get my first credit card, which had a very low balance and a very high interest rate, and I built my credit history from there. Now, as the mom of a teenager, I want to understand the best ways for her to establish her own credit, so she doesn’t come across the same challenges. I connected with a few experts and got the following great advice. Teach teens why building a credit history is so important Good credit history and a strong credit score can open financial doors that help people get a house, a car or even a cellphone. “Credit histor...

Congratulations! Your first day on the new job starts today. It’s a busy one, introducing yourself to a long list of existing clients. You pick up your cellphone and get to work. Hardly anyone questions the practice of conducting business on a personal cellphone, a ubiquitous telecom development that in 2010 became known as Bring Your Own Device. —or BOYD. Consider that according to research by Samsung , 61% of companies expect remote availability from employees—even those who are not provided a company phone. But the often-overlooked question here is, who pays for that business usage? The average cell phone bill for a single person is $141 a month, according to J.D. Power (includes phone cost, line fees, insurance and extra data charges). If you use your phone for work 50% of the time, you’re looking at about $840 annually paid from your hard-earned salary. Unfortunately, employees cannot claim it as a federal tax deduction, either. Where you can recoup at least some of the cost...

For executives, time is more than money, it’s a resource that can make or break a day. Private aviation, once seen as the exclusive domain of billionaires, is increasingly becoming a practical tool for busy leaders who want to maximize productivity . While owning a corporate jet outright is often cost-prohibitive, new fractional ownership programs and jet cards are opening the door to private aircrafts, with less of the financial and logistical burden. Sharing the sky: How fractional ownership actually works Rising startups like NetJets and Jet It are now allowing executives to buy shares in private aircrafts, pooling resources to cover maintenance, staff salaries, insurance and hangar costs. In exchange, shareholders gain guaranteed flight access, typically 50 hours per year, with the option to purchase additional hours as needed.  This fractional ownership model is designed to make private aviation more cost-effective and predictable. Instead of paying the entire price tag and...

Servant leadership is a leadership style in which serving people is the core purpose. A servant leader works towards ensuring the satisfaction, well-being, and growth of others first instead of focusing on their personal growth. Key characteristics of this leadership style include empathy, self-awareness, conceptualization, foresight, and commitment to growth The servant leadership theory was first introduced in a 1970 essay called The Servant As Leader by Robert K. Greenleaf. Greenleaf developed the concept from an idea in Hermann Hesse’s The Journey to the East , in which a seemingly minor servant turns out to be the driving force and the true leader of a group of travelers. The novel’s plot sparked something in Greenleaf’s mind. He realized the need for a similar “serve-first” mindset in modern corporate leaders. Put simply, a servant leader is driven by the urge to serve others (employees, team members, customers, and so on). They strive to empower and enhance the experiences o...
