New Year's Resolutions Across the UK in 2024

Intelligiants Ltd

In the second month of 2024, many are still looking ahead, making plans for the remainder of the year, and working towards health, financial and career plans and goals. New Year's resolutions, with roots tracing back to historical and religious origins, have evolved into a universal catalyst for positive change. In a nod to historical customs, modern-day resolutions have evolved, focusing on self-improvement and prioritising a more balanced lifestyle. An analysis of these resolutions across generations and regions has been summarised by online bingo site, Heart Bingo, which has been looking at results from surveys on New Year’s resolutions in the UK for 2024 from reputable sources. Are there generational trends in making resolutions? Examining New Year's resolutions across generations reveals a notable pattern: the likelihood of making resolutions decreases with age. In 2023, 23% of Generation Z expressed their intent to set resolutions, while the figures gradually declined among older generations, reaching only six percent for those over 50. England has a clear focus on health-related resolutions “Doing more exercise or improving my fitness” was the top pick for poll takers in England, with 56% of respondents opting for this resolution. “Losing weight” came in second at 49% and third place “Eating healthier” (43%) summarises the results with a clear health focus for 2024 in England. Below is a comparison between England, Wales and Scotland: Doing more exercise or improving fitness: England 56%, Wales 71%, Scotland 52% Improving diet: England 43%, Wales 33%, Scotland 41% Cutting down on drinking: England 12%, Wales 23%, Scotland 8% Giving up smoking: England 6%, Wales 14%, Scotland 5% Regional Contrasts: Scotland Another popular focus area has historically been to “save more money” for the new year, which was the highest priority in Scotland, with as many as 61% picking this as their top resolution. There is no surprise that “Doing more exercise or improving fitness” is the second pick, although this is a bit lower when compared to the rest of the UK, but “Improving my diet” comes in at a third place, on par with the other nations. Wales: A Standout Commitment to Health in 2024 Wales emerges as a health-conscious nation, setting a record-high with 71% pledging to focus on fitness routines and workouts for 2024. When it comes to alcohol consumption and smoking habits, the Welsh population appears more committed to positive changes, with twice as many respondents planning to cut down on drinking or quit smoking compared to England and Scotland. Generations and Regions Behind Diverse Outcome for 2024 In summary, as the UK embraces 2024, New Year's resolutions reflect a blend of generational and regional priorities, showcasing a diverse tapestry of hopes and aspirations across the UK. This diversity underscores the dynamic nature of the UK, where individuals, influenced by their generational outlooks and regional contexts, contribute to a collective vision for self-improvement and positive change.

While many view it as an ordinary meme, Galaxy Fox has shown it is more than that by breaking presale records, so far raising an impressive $3 million within a few months of its ongoing presale stages. $GFOX has pressed on to stand out as one of the best play-to-earn (P2E) tokens. In the P2E gameplay of its ecosystem, you’ll find a fantastic runner game, which earns you a $GFOX token by maintaining top performance. The most exciting part of the games is that you can increase your winning advantage simply by buying Galaxy Fox NFTs.

The funds in Galaxy Fox Stargate will not run out because the platform replenishes it with 2% of every transaction that occurred within the ecosystem. Galaxy Fox also implements a token burn feature, allowing the permanent elimination of the $GFOX token and decreasing its circulation. This feature aims to create scarcity of the $GFOX tokens, which currently have a limited supply of 5 billion tokens, so they can skyrocket in value as quickly as possible. Galaxy Fox has a smartly designed presale structure, which enabled the platform to gain increasing attention recently. The presale has ten different stages and from the first to the last stage, the price of $GFOX is bound to rise. Galaxy Fox has completed six stages, and the 7th stage is currently ongoing with more than 95% of the tokens allocated for the stage sold already. Investors who had bought $GFOX at the start of its presales would have gained around 230% on their investment and this ROI is expected to increase by almost 10% again by the time the presale stage 8 starts in the next couple of days. More interestingly, with three more stages left to the end of the presale, investors who invested from stage one will realize a significant ROI totaling about 450%. Conclusion On a final note, the swift and successful presale journey of $GFOX, coupled with its enticing innovative features and multiple use cases has been a key factor in enticing big investors into the Galaxy Fox's ecosystem.

Amesite Inc. In 2024: Growth, Partnership Building And Scaling A Zero Setup Cost AI-Driven Platform

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga AI is rapidly gaining momentum and transforming industries across the board, even those that have traditionally been slow to adopt new technologies, like academia. As states increasingly recognize the need to build highly skilled workforces, community and regional colleges and universities in the U.S. are playing a more vital role than ever before. To accomplish their missions, these institutions often require more advanced software and services that can facilitate large-scale workforce development quickly and efficiently. AI-powered solutions are proving to be increasingly useful in achieving operational efficiency and meeting the needs of the future. However, not every university and college has the resources or knowledge to fully invest in AI technology. Amesite Inc. (NASDAQ: AMST) is an artificial intelligence software company that offers a cloud-based learning platform for businesses and education. The company's smart and intuitive learning environments assist organizations – including businesses, community colleges, universities, non-profits and government agencies – to launch branded learning programs easily and affordably. With a focus on providing innovative solutions, Amesite enables organizations to evolve with the times by offering a zero-cost set-up fee platform that leverages AI and facilitates personalized, engaging and efficient learning experiences. The company is known for its best-in-class learning management system (LMS) which can integrate with thousands of Application Programming Interface (APIs), enabling them to share information with different software applications. The past year saw the strategic evolution of Amesite’s business strategy to better serve its partners by moving to a much more affordable business plan with a no-cost set-up fee model, which is a key differentiator from other SaaS e-learning platforms. This change was made economically possible by the company’s implementation of its AI capabilities. The no-cost set-up fee approach significantly expands the target market for Amesite and enables companies and universities to provide professional training without big upfront investments and offer degrees and certifications to students with lower tuition fees than the competition. From an internal standpoint, Amesite says prioritizing AI-first processes and workflows has had an impact of reducing operating expenses by 51.9%. The company also reports that sales-qualified leads have seen a nearly 200% increase from the first quarter of 2023 to the first quarter of 2024. Before AI took off and was widely adopted, Amesite reports it was already engaging with and adopting the technology as one of the first ed-tech companies to embrace AI. Amesite reports it has gained momentum when compared to competitors and is now able to provide a cost-efficient product to its customers through a no-cost set-up fee model – effectively making it risk-free. Although from another industry, this is a similar approach to how Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) approached its EV business model and took a mass-market approach. Tesla created a standard in the auto industry that enabled it to bring on more customers, and Amesite similarly aims to set a standard in its educational industry utilizing AI in the background. Over the course of 2023, Amesite made strides in both the private and public sectors, which cumulated into the no-cost set-up fee model which has increased sales inquiries. In March, Amesite announced that it was COPPA and FERPA -compliant; these designations protect children’s safety and personal data online. This certification allows Amesite’s customers to sell learning products to over 49.5 million K12 students. The company reports that it has already seen success with the continued education market. In June, the company announced that company had received an award from the National Association for Business Resources: Michigan’s Best & Brightest in Wellness® for the fifth consecutive year. The company also announced 12 new courses with its partner, Michigan Works! Southeast (MWSE) during the year. These courses focused on how digitalization is reshaping the workplace, providing Michigan residents with valuable resources to excel in the modern workplace. In August, Amesite announced the renewal of its partnership with Central Michigan University. While there are other companies in the ed-tech space like Coursera (NYSE: COUR) and 2U (NASDAQ: TWOU), Amesite’s early AI adoption and continued evolution are beginning to result in more potential sales activity for the company in addition to achieving its no-cost set-up fee milestone but (significantly for investors) this shift began to roll out in September 2023, with an understandable delay in contract announcement wins. The company now boasts of being able to provide custom-branded, enterprise-scale systems for clients within 24 hours – and partners seem to be taking notice. Since the official rollout in September, the company announced a five-year partnership with Drake State Community and Technical College in November. Amesite also announced a five-year partnership with West Virginia Northern Community College in December. Amesite’s commitment to providing companies and organizations with the tools needed to leverage powerful AI at a low cost and with scalable options sets it apart from its contemporaries and its competition. Speaking on the commercial demand for Amesite’s tools, CEO and Founder Dr. Ann Marie Sastry shared, “Workforce development agencies have a significant opportunity to leverage modern tools to assist individuals in their growth and readiness for the job market, and we are excited to be able to provide critical skills to a multi-billion-dollar market and expect these offerings to be in high demand. At Amesite, we've focused on creating solutions that easily integrate into existing systems. Our partnership with Microsoft enables us to deploy these tools swiftly, often within a 24-hour window.” According to Market Research Future, the global AI in education market is projected to grow from $3.45 billion in 2023 to $23.82 billion in 2030. The SaaS market is expected to grow from $167 billion in 2022 to $462 billion by 2028. As Amesite’s progress indicates, companies that capitalize on these two industries and drive growth forward could have a positive outlook in the coming years. As Amesite begins to see the positive results of its new AI-enable model, investors may see that Amesite could potentially be well-positioned to continue to grow and expand its partnerships, resulting in more clients and more revenues.

Danmarks Spillemyndigheder Strammer Tøjet: Kan ROFUS Holde Tempoen?

AM Europe

Danmark, kendt for progressive politikker, tager endnu engang en proaktiv holdning - denne gang mod spilregulering. I de senere år har det danske spillemarked oplevet en betydelig vækst, hvilket har fået regeringen til at implementere strengere foranstaltninger for at bekæmpe potentiel skade forbundet med aktiviteten. Disse nye regler rejser vigtige spørgsmål om deres effektivitet, og om de rammer den rette balance mellem spillerbeskyttelse og branchens frihed. Ny Spiller, Nye Regler: Ændringerne, der træder i kraft øjeblikkeligt, omfatter: Forhøjet Aldersgrænse: Online deltagelse i spil vil nu være begrænset til personer over 25 år, sammenlignet med de tidligere 18 år. Dette bringer Danmark i tråd med strengere regler i nabolande som Finland og Island. Markedsføringsbegrænsninger: Reklame- og kampagnaktiviteter for spilplatforme vil blive mødt med strammere restriktioner, især i dagtimerne og nær skoler. Dette sigter mod at begrænse eksponeringen for yngre demografiske grupper og sårbare individer. Indbetalingsbegrænsninger: Spillerne vil blive afhæntet på deres daglige og månedlige online spiludgifter, med mulighed for yderligere stramning baseret på individuelle risikoanalyser. Forbedret Overvågning: Spillemyndigheden vil modtage yderligere ressourcer til robust overvågning af online spilaktiviteter, identificere og adressere potentiel problematisk adfærd. "Spilleindustrien har oplevet en boom i de senere år, og med det følger et ansvar for at prioritere spillersikkerhed," udtaler en talsperson for Spillemyndigheden. "Disse nye regler er designet til at skabe en balance mellem at sikre et fair og tilgængeligt marked, mens vi beskytter enkeltpersoner mod potentiel skade." Er ROFUS Nok? Men ikke alle er overbeviste om reguleringernes effektivitet. Spil-uden-om-rofus.net, en dansk interessegruppe mod ludomani, udtrykker bekymring: "Mens vi hylder regeringens initiativ, mener vi, at disse foranstaltninger ikke formår at adressere kernespørgsmålet," udtaler Oliver Damgaard, talsmand for Spil-uden-om-rofus.net. "Fokus på aldersgrænser alene vil ikke adressere eksisterende ludomaner eller personer i risiko. Styrkelse af supportsystemer, fremme af ansvarlig spillebevidsthed og tackling af branchens aggressive markedsføringstaktikker er afgørende skridt, der ser ud til at mangle." Danmarks satsning på strengere spillekrav vil med sikkerhed blive fulgt nøje af andre lande, der står over for lignende udfordringer. Om disse foranstaltninger viser sig effektive i at dæmpe ludomani og sikre et ansvarligt marked, må tiden vise. Debatten mellem spillerbeskyttelse og branchens frihed vil sandsynligvis fortsætte med Danmark i spidsen af denne udviklende samtale. ROFUS: Din vej til kontrol over dit spil: Forståelse af reglerne i Danmark Spiller du måske lidt for meget? Eller vil du bare tage en pause fra spilverdenen? Så er ROFUS et værktøj, der kan hjælpe dig med at tage kontrol over dit spil. Men hvad præcis er ROFUS, og hvordan fungerer reglerne i Danmark? ROFUS står for Register Over Frivilligt Udelukkede Spillere. Det er en database administreret af Spillemyndigheden, hvor du frivilligt kan registrere dig, hvis du ønsker at udelukke dig selv fra at spille online-gambling og på fysiske casinoner i Danmark. Her er hvad du skal vide om ROFUS-reglerne: Hvem kan registrere sig?: Alle over 18 år kan registrere sig i ROFUS. Du kan vælge at udelukke dig selv midlertidigt (minimum 24 timer) eller permanent. Hvordan registrerer man sig?: Registrering foregår nemt og sikkert via dit NemID på ROFUS.nu. Hvad dækker udelukkelsen?: Når du er registreret i ROFUS, er du udelukket fra alle online-gamblingsplatforme med dansk licens samt landbaserede casinoner og fysiske bettingterminaler i Danmark. Det gælder eksempelvis spil som poker, roulette, spilleautomater og sportsvæddemål. Siden oktober 2023 omfatter udelukkelsen også fysiske bookmakere i Danmark. Hvad sker der, hvis du prøver at spille, mens du er registreret?: Spillemyndigheden informerer spiludbyderne om din registrering i ROFUS. Hvis du forsøger at spille, mens du er udelukket, vil din adgang blive nægtet. Kan man fortryde sin registrering?: Ja, du kan til enhver tid ophæve din registrering i ROFUS via dit NemID på ROFUS.nu.
