Quick Glance: Reddit Shares Surge 48% in Market Debut
- Reddit shares ended their first day of trading in New York up 48 per cent, signaling that investor appetite for initial public offerings of promising yet loss-making companies could be returning.

- Shares of Reddit opened on the New York Stock Exchange at $47 and surged to $50.44 after pricing at $34 in the IPO.
- Reddit's entry into public markets was long overdue, and although the allocation of shares to users and retailers poses risks, the extremely bullish sentiment from retail traders on platforms like Stocktwits indicates that the cult brand Reddit continues to hold a significant cultural presence in the social media world.

forbes.com/sites/bernardmarr/2024/03/19/is-the-public-losing-trust-in-ai/
Quick Glance: Challenges and Solutions in AI Trust
- A recent study based on Edelman data suggests that public trust in AI is shifting in a direction contrary to the expectations of companies like Google, OpenAI, and Microsoft.
- One possible reason for this decline in trust could be an image problem. To harness the vast potential of AI in addressing real-world problems, it is crucial for AI to be trustworthy, ethical, and transparently implemented.
- Transparency, accountability, and security are critical for establishing a trustworthy AI ecosystem. Public involvement in AI governance is also essential to support the integration of AI into life-changing use cases.
- Utilizing AI as a transformative force for good and actively addressing potential risks like misinformation, cyberattacks, and discrimination are vital to enhance public trust in the industry and work towards a future where AI benefits humanity and the planet.

- Vinge is credited as the first author to describe an immersive cyberspace, which he outlined in his 1979 novella "True Names" – five years before William Gibson’s Neuromancer brought the idea to the mainstream.
- Suffice to say, True Names made a significant impact, with its elements becoming foundational to SciFi and CompSci.
- His theory of “The Singularity” – an event after which human history changes course – was widely admired and even became the theme of a University in Silicon Valley.
- Vinge’s novels often used concepts from computer science and were multiple award winners, including the Hugo Award for the year’s best science fiction novel.
