Super Free Games Faces Gender Discrimination Lawsuit

Former Super Free Games (Word Collect) employee Haley Bowman (Sonos) filed a lawsuit in the San Francisco Superior Court on the 11th of May, 2023 against the company for gender discrimination, unequal pay and being terminated while pregnant.

Super Free Games, formerly known as Super Lucky Games is a word and trivia game developer owned by the Stillfront Group and based in California with global remote employees, mostly across America. Although their careers page boasts a "flat management model" and insists on valuing a work-life balance, Bowman's case alleges "cronyistic" hiring practices, backed up by an anonymous former employee's review on Glassdoor.

In 2022, a Marketing Department Reduction in Force Committee was established at SFG and asked Bowman to leave her managerial marketing position for a position with a 20-26% pay cut in production on the grounds that she "had poor communication issues and created a level of mistrust with UA [the User Acquisition Team]". In her case, Bowman has said that there were no issues between her and UA. When she refused to take the cut and role change, she was terminated two months into a pregnancy she alleges SFG knew about and that her firing was falsely presented as a workforce reduction externally.

In addition to this, the lawsuit alleges an "unmistakable bias" against women, who make up less than a third of SFG, often being excluded from important meetings and social opportunities. Bowman also was not consulted on the marketing decisions that were key to her role in the Marketing division. SFG have not made any statements regarding the case as of two weeks after the filing.

This model is trained using both simulated and real-world data, eliminating the need for HD maps and localization technology (Lidar).The Vayu Drive operates similarly to large language models, processing multimodal inputs, including image tokens from cameras, instruction tokens for robot tasks and route tokens for road-level navigation. Its unique “state” feature allows for efficient processing of large context windows, enabling the robot to operate at 10 frames per second.MEET THE OCTOGENARIAN TRAILBLAZERS PIONEERING WING’S DELIVERY DRONE SERVICEThe One is designed to carry up to 100 pounds of goods and can travel at speeds of up to 20 mph. Its maximum range on a single charge is between 60 and 70 miles, making it suitable for both urban deliveries and in-store operations.Measuring 3.3 feet in height, 5.9 feet in length and 2.2 feet in width, The One is compact enough to navigate various environments without causing significant obstruction. It can autonomously navigate through crowded areas, load customer orders in supermarkets and deliver packages directly to doorsteps. Upon arrival, it can open its side door and utilize a robotic arm to release the package, streamlining the delivery process.HOW TO REMOVE YOUR PRIVATE DATA FROM THE INTERNETREVOLUTIONARY DELIVERY DRONE COULD BE DROPPING A PACKAGE AT YOUR HOMEAs e-commerce continues to grow – projected to account for 23% of American retail purchases by 2027 – the demand for efficient and cost-effective delivery solutions is on the rise. Vayu Robotics has already secured a significant commercial contract to deploy 2,500 of its delivery robots with a major e-commerce player, starting in San Ramon, California. This deployment marks a significant step toward scaling robotic delivery services across the United States and potentially beyond.The company’s technology is not limited to delivery robots. Vayu is working with a leading global robotics manufacturer to replace Lidar sensors with Vayu sensing technology in other robotic applications. Furthermore, the company’s software is designed to be robot form factor agnostic, with plans to expand into quadrupedal and bipedal robot markets in the future.Vayu Robotics has garnered significant attention from investors and industry experts. The company emerged from stealth in October 2023 with $12.7 million in seed funding from backers, including Lockheed Martin. Kanu Gulati, partner at Khosla Ventures, expressed confidence in Vayu’s potential, stating that their novel sensing and AI foundation models address a robotic challenge with immense economic and societal impact.As Vayu’s co-founder Anand Gopalan noted, “Autonomous delivery robots are only the tip of the iceberg,” hinting at the broader potential of their scalable robotics architecture to empower businesses across industries.Vayu Robotics has really shaken things up with its new delivery bot, The One. It’s not just another robot on wheels, it’s a game-changer. Think about it: This little guy can navigate city streets, load up orders in stores and even deliver packages right to your doorstep. Sure, it might take some getting used to seeing robots rolling down our streets. But if it means more efficient deliveries and maybe even lower prices on the things we buy online, I think a lot of people will be on board.Are you ready to have a robot deliver your next pizza or grocery order? … .

Forget drones, this street-smart robot could be future of local deliveries

In recent years, the e-commerce landscape has transformed dramatically, with delivery drones and robots emerging as pivotal innovations. Vayu Robotics has introduced its first delivery robot, “The One,” which aims to revolutionize how goods are delivered. Let’s explore the features of Vayu’s robot, its implications for the future of delivery services and its broader impact on the e-commerce industry.GET SECURITY ALERTS, EXPERT TIPS – SIGN UP FOR KURT’S NEWSLETTER – THE CYBERGUY REPORT HEREVayu Robotics, founded in 2021 by a team of experienced engineers and technologists, is at the forefront of developing cutting-edge robotics technology for real-world scenarios. The company’s mission is to remove hardware and software bottlenecks that have hindered e-commerce growth.The One stands out due to its unique combination of AI and low-cost sensing technology. Unlike traditional delivery robots that rely heavily on expensive Lidar systems, Vayu’s robot uses a proprietary vision system called Vayu Sense. This innovative system integrates low-cost CMOS image sensors with advanced computational imaging and machine-learning techniques. The result is a cost-effective, high-resolution robotic vision system with depth perception and object detection capabilities that can operate effectively in challenging conditions.Complementing the Vayu Sense system is the Vayu Drive, a proprietary foundation AI model for robotics autonomy. This model is trained using both simulated and real-world data, eliminating the need for HD maps and localization technology (Lidar).The Vayu Drive operates similarly to large language models, processing multimodal inputs, including image tokens from cameras, instruction tokens for robot tasks and route tokens for road-level navigation. Its unique “state” feature allows for efficient processing of large context windows, enabling the robot to operate at 10 frames per second.MEET THE OCTOGENARIAN TRAILBLAZERS PIONEERING WING’S DELIVERY DRONE SERVICEThe One is designed to carry up to 100 pounds of goods and can travel at speeds of up to 20 mph. Its maximum range on a single charge is between 60 and 70 miles, making it suitable for both urban deliveries and in-store operations.Measuring 3.3 feet in height, 5.9 feet in length and 2.2 feet in width, The One is compact enough to navigate various environments without causing significant obstruction. It can autonomously navigate through crowded areas, load customer orders in supermarkets and deliver packages directly to doorsteps. Upon arrival, it can open its side door and utilize a robotic arm to release the package, streamlining the delivery process.HOW TO REMOVE YOUR PRIVATE DATA FROM THE INTERNETREVOLUTIONARY DELIVERY DRONE COULD BE DROPPING A PACKAGE AT YOUR HOMEAs e-commerce continues to grow – projected to account for 23% of American retail purchases by 2027 – the demand for efficient and cost-effective delivery solutions is on the rise. Vayu Robotics has already secured a significant commercial contract to deploy 2,500 of its delivery robots with a major e-commerce player, starting in San Ramon, California. This deployment marks a significant step toward scaling robotic delivery services across the United States and potentially beyond.The company’s technology is not limited to delivery robots. Vayu is working with a leading global robotics manufacturer to replace Lidar sensors with Vayu sensing technology in other robotic applications. Furthermore, the company’s software is designed to be robot form factor agnostic, with plans to expand into quadrupedal and bipedal robot markets in the future.Vayu Robotics has garnered significant attention from investors and industry experts. The company emerged from stealth in October 2023 with $12.7 million in seed funding from backers, including Lockheed Martin. Kanu Gulati, partner at Khosla Ventures, expressed confidence in Vayu’s potential, stating that their novel sensing and AI foundation models address a robotic challenge with immense economic and societal impact.As Vayu’s co-founder Anand Gopalan noted, “Autonomous delivery robots are only the tip of the iceberg,” hinting at the broader potential of their scalable robotics architecture to empower businesses across industries.Vayu Robotics has really shaken things up with its new delivery bot, The One. It’s not just another robot on wheels, it’s a game-changer. Think about it: This little guy can navigate city streets, load up orders in stores and even deliver packages right to your doorstep. Sure, it might take some getting used to seeing robots rolling down our streets. But if it means more efficient deliveries and maybe even lower prices on the things we buy online, I think a lot of people will be on board.Are you ready to have a robot deliver your next pizza or grocery order? … .
