"The studies are the first to experimentally test and prove hypotheses from the 1960s that equines make grazing land more suitable for bovines, a dynamic known as facilitation, Rubenstein said. Observations of zebras and wildebeests had suggested that the zebras’ ability to digest grass stems exposed the leafy grass wildebeests prefer.

Animals in the horse and cattle families both process food through fermentation as microbes in the digestive system break down vegetation. In horse-like animals, this process takes place in an organ located after the stomach that is similar to the human appendix (though humans are not fermenters). For bovines, on the other hand, fermentation happens in the rumen, an organ before the stomach that produces cud, which is regurgitated for the animal to further chew.

As a result of these digestive distinctions, Rubenstein said, equines can eat the rough low-quality grass that would linger and fester in a cow’s slower, more complex gut. The bovines in turn enjoy the lush, easily digestible grass underneath the stems.

Both Princeton studies showed that the presence of equines resulted in less dry-grass cover and a more nourishing diet for the cows. Although the study in Science matched cattle with other wildlife — including bovines such as buffalo — Odadi and his co-authors largely attributed the removal of the low-quality grass to zebras.

What was not expected was just how much the cattle can benefit, Rubenstein said.

'Scientists had this intuitively pleasing, circumstantial evidence that equines make the landscape more habitable to bovines, but the idea was never tested,' Rubenstein said. 'This was the first demonstration that the animals behave accordingly, but also that the performance of the cows as measured by growth is actually enhanced. Previous evidence of the effects we found on the health and development of cattle had been missing.'”

May 28: Return

Traveling days are so surreal. You start one place, you end up somewhere else. I woke up at 5am in S's guest room, and now I'm on my own couch.

The day was very straightforward, really easy traveling. Really encourages me to take more trips where I just pop up there and then come back down.

We got to the airport super early and then I sat around for a long while because the plane was late in a lackadaisical way. Like oh we were supposed to leave 15 minutes ago, and it's just now showing up... whatever. ADK time for sure. I didn't care; my layover in Boston was long anyway. The plane itself was a full house, all 8 seats full. I was right behind the co-pilot. I slept the whole way.

In Boston, got food and coffee and then just sat for a long time in the rocking chair looking out the window and thinking. I am full of excellent thoughts. Kept scratching the peeling skin of the dumbass boat sunburn at the very top of my forehead where I missed putting on sunscreen like a total fucking rube. The flight itself was fine; on time, not too long; I did stay awake the whole time though.

I checked my bag because I no longer trust TSA not to steal my stuff after they confiscated my host gift on the way up--something that was my fault but I'm big mad about it anyway. So I had to grab that, and I had weird anxiety about it. But it was fine. My ride was there, and I got home about 5, I'd say.

I have literally been on my couch chilling, scrolling, watching TV... shameless. I can't believe it's 10. At least I took off work tomorrow. I have these ideas that I'll clean... mmmmm, we'll see.

I just... loved being home. I've been thinking a lot about my total lack of Home recently but I think, even without family there, this is sort of it. Why did I cry when the flight attendant at Boston said 'for those of you from the Boston area, welcome home'? Even though that was just my layover? S and I still talk as if we were elementary school BFFs. I still feel so comfortable around her and her family. I love her son, I miss him so much already, I just want to hold him as he wiggles around. And I want to play with her dog. And I'm usually scared of dogs.

It's nice to be around people who've known you for a long time and share a certain set of memories and references with you. It's also nice to be around people who have the same vocabulary and scale as you. Like no upstate NY is not the fucking Hudson Valley and it's not Buffalo either (that's Western NY). No 40 degree is not cold. And yes 80 is sweltering and 90 should be illegal. I like being around grocery stores that aren't chains and local-branded soda and beer and ice cream. I like chains like Grand Union, Kinney's, and Stewart's. The shades of green in the trees and blue in the water are the most beautiful colors in the world. I just love this area so much. I'm not even kidding when I say I want to have property up there which is fucking WILD given I don't even have property HERE. L M A O, self.

I'll go up again for Carnival. I have to start acknowledging my November trip (hadfakfaksfa) and then after that, we'll start planning for February. Excellent, excellent. Keep looking forward to things, keep looking on.

*squints at your tags about hamilton* where did they film crimson peak stuff? For science of course.

Off the top of my head:

Scottish Rite Masonic Lodge (Exterior and most interiors of the Cushing house, the boardroom in Carter's office)

Dundurn Castle gardens (park in Buffalo)

They also used Market Square in Kingston, multiple rooms at Casa Loma (the morgue where Edith identifies Carter's body, the hotel wherethe Sharpes stay, the McMichaels' ballroom), Victoria College at the University of Toronto (the building with Alan's and Oglivie's offices, Cushing and Co.), and some random nearby fields for exterior shots around Allerdale Hall. The building used for the depot where Thomas and Edith had sex was also a museum in that area- I think a farm museum? -but I can't remember where right now.

Alas, Allerdale itself only existed as a fantastical, functional, full-scale set at Toronto Pinewood Studios (Edith's bedroom in Buffalo and I think also the bathroom where Carter died were built on soundstages, too).

young veins spring tour

The Young Veins toured North America opening for Foxy Shazam with Bad Rabbits in the spring of 2010. The band knew Foxy Shazam because they were also with One Haven Music. Ryan explained how the tour came about in this interview:

We are managed by the same people. It was kind of tough to get on a tour when you don’t have any music out or any records, so I think they did us a favor. Or maybe we are doing them a favor.

^ map of the Foxy Shazam tour.

As well as touring with Foxy Shazam, the Young Veins also played two solo shows at the Echo in Los Angeles, which is a tiny venue with a 350 person capacity, as well as a set at South By Southwest Festival (SXSW) on 19 March.

Several fans who posted concert recaps of the shows mentioned that the band didn't have roadies and were setting up their equipment themselves. It seems like Jon was doing most of it, which makes sense as he used to be a guitar tech for The Academy Is... and he was probably also the strongest.

The band ran a Twitter competition for the tour, where fans could tweet a picture of their favorite vacation memory to be entered to win free tickets to one of the shows. Here is an infographic posted by the band about it:

Ryan talked about the competition in this interview:

[The vacation photograph contest] was [the label's] idea, which I really liked because I have been meeting the kids every night and they are really excited about it. There is really nothing we have to do, it is just a great way to have people come for free.

Quotes from the band about the spring tour

It’s been so much fun playing these venues. We’ve scaled back on the way that we’re touring. We’re back in a van and we’re actually able to experience what we’re doing and where we’re going instead of just being on someone else’s schedule and being told where to be and when. This last tour we just finished with Foxy Shazam was just so much fun. We had more time to hang out with fans and the venues sound better, it’s so much more intimate, I really hope that we can continue and maintain playing in smaller places for awhile just because of the fact that the sound is so much better. Once you get into the bigger places it really makes a difference. – Jon

It is more interesting every night, you never know what you are going to walk into. I question the craftsmanship in a lot of these clubs because I can't figure out what they were thinking but it makes it a lot of fun. Being so close to the crowd again, I forgot how that was and it makes the show have more energy. – Ryan

It’s been weird for us because this is the first time in the last four or five years that we’ve gone on tour playing songs that no one really knows. It was interesting to get people’s reactions and I think it went fairly well. I know just playing live for us in general gives us motivation to do the kind of songs we want to write and even more focused on wanting to have it translate better live than songs we’ve written in the past. – Jon

Especially since we don't have any music out or released, building a really close relationship with what fanbase we do have is really important. Being as close as possible, building friendships and meeting people around the country is good. [...] The best feeling in the world is to have people that did not come for our band and like our band and tell us that after the show, especially since no one has any pretense of what to expect. If they did like it that is a really good feeling. – Nick M

Surojit Chatterjee, Founder and CEO at Ema – Interview Series

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/surojit-chatterjee-founder-and-ceo-at-ema-interview-series/

Surojit Chatterjee, Founder and CEO at Ema – Interview Series

Surojit Chatterjee is the founder and CEO of Ema. Previously, he guided Coinbase through a successful 2021 IPO as its Chief Product Officer and scaled Google Mobile Ads and Google Shopping into multi billion dollar businesses as the VP and Head of Product. Surojit holds 40 US patents and has an MBA from MIT, MS in Computer Science from SUNY at Buffalo, and B. Tech from IIT Kharagpur.

Ema is a universal AI employee, seamlessly integrated into your organization’s existing IT infrastructure. She’s designed to enhance productivity, streamline processes, and empower your teams.

Can you elaborate on the vision behind Ema and what inspired you to create a universal AI employee?

The goal for Ema is clear and bold: “transform enterprises by building a universal AI employee.” This vision stems from our belief that AI can augment human capabilities rather than replace workers entirely. Our Universal AI Employee is designed to automate mundane, repetitive tasks, freeing up human employees to focus on more strategic and valuable work. We do this through Ema’s innovative agentic AI system, which can perform a wide range of complex tasks with a collection of AI agents (called Ema’s Personas), improving efficiency, and boosting productivity across countless organizations.

Both you and your co-founder have impressive backgrounds at leading tech companies. How has your past experience influenced the development and strategy of Ema?

Over the last two decades, I’ve worked at iconic companies like Google, Coinbase, Oracle and Flipkart. And at every place, I wondered “Why do we hire the smartest people and give them jobs that are so mundane?.” That’s why we are building Ema.

Prior to co-founding Ema, I was the chief product officer of Coinbase and Flipkart and the global head of product for mobile ads at Google. These experiences deepened my technical knowledge across engineering, machine learning, and adtech. These roles allowed me to identify inefficiencies in the ways we work and how to solve complex business problems.

Ema’s co-founder and head of engineering, Souvik Sen, was previously the VP of engineering at Okta where he oversaw data, machine learning, and devices. Before that, he was at Google, where he was engineering lead for data and machine learning where he built one of the world’s largest ML systems, focused on privacy and safety – Google’s Trust Graph. His expertise, particularly, is a driving force to why Ema’s Agentic AI system is highly accurate and built to be enterprise ready in terms of security and privacy.

My cofounder Souvik and I thought what if you had a Michelin Star Chef in-house who could cook anything you asked for. You might be in the mood for French today, Italian tomorrow and Indian the day after. But irrespective of your mood or the cuisine you desire, that chef can recreate the dish of your dreams.  That’s what Ema can do. It can take on the role of whatever you need in the enterprise with just a simple conversation.

Ema uses over 100 large language models and its own smaller models. How do you ensure seamless integration and optimal performance from these varied sources?

LLM’s, while powerful, fall short in enterprise settings due to their lack of specialized knowledge and context-specific training. These models are built on general data, leaving them ill-equipped to handle the nuanced, proprietary information that drives business operations. This limitation can lead to inaccurate outputs, potential data security risks, and an inability to provide domain-specific insights crucial for informed decision-making. Agentic AI systems like Ema address these shortcomings by offering a more tailored and dynamic approach. Unlike static LLMs, our agentic AI systems can:

Adapt to enterprise-specific data and workflows

Leverage multiple LLMs based on accuracy, cost, and performance requirements

Maintain data privacy and security by operating within company infrastructure

Provide explainable and verifiable outputs, crucial for business accountability

Continuously update and learn from real-time enterprise data

Execute complex, multi-step tasks autonomously

We ensure seamless integration from these varied sources by using Ema’s proprietary 2T+ parameter mixture of experts model: EmaFusionTM. EmaFusionTM combines 100+ public LLMs and many domain specific custom models to maximize accuracy at the lowest possible cost for wide variety of tasks in the enterprise, maximizing the return on investment. Plus, with this novel approach, Ema is future-proof; we are constantly adding new models to prevent overreliance on one technology stack, taking this risk away from our enterprise customers.

Can you explain how the Generative Workflow Engine works and what advantages it offers over traditional workflow automation tools?

We’ve developed tens of template Personas (or AI employees for specific roles). The personas can be configured and deployed quickly by business users – no coding knowledge required. At its core, Ema’s Personas are collections of proprietary AI agents that collaborate to perform complex workflows.

Our patent-pending Generative Workflow Engine™, a small transformer model, generates workflows and orchestration code, selecting the appropriate agents and design patterns. Ema leverages well-known agentic design patterns, such as reflection, planning, tool use, multi-agent collaboration, language agent tree search (LATS), structured output and multi-agent collaboration, and introduces many innovative patterns of its own. With over 200 pre-built connectors, Ema seamlessly integrates with internal data sources and can take actions across tools to perform effectively in various enterprise roles.

Ema is used in various domains from customer service to legal to insurance. Which industries do you see the highest potential for growth with Ema, and why?

We see potential across industries and functions as most enterprises have less than 30% automation in processes and use more than 200 software applications leading to data and action silos. McKinsey & Co. estimates that generative AI could add the equivalent of $2.6 trillion to $4.4 trillion annually in productivity gains (source).

These issues are exacerbated in regulated industries like healthcare, financial services, insurance where most of the last decades technical automations have not happened since the technology was not advanced enough for their processes. This is where we see the biggest opportunity for transformation and are seeing a lot of demand from customers in these industries to leverage Generative AI and technology like never before.

How does Ema address data protection and security concerns, especially when integrating multiple models and handling sensitive enterprise data?

A pressing concern for any company using agentic AI is the potential for AI agents to go rogue or leak private data. Ema is built with trust at its core, compliant with leading international standards such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, NIST AI RMF, NIST CSF, NIST 800-171 To ensure enterprise data remains private, secure, and compliant, Ema has implemented the following security measures:

Automatic redaction and safe de-identification of sensitive data, audit logs

Real-time monitoring

Encryption of all data at rest and in transit

Explainability across all output results

To go the extra mile, Ema also checks for any copyright violations for document generation use cases, reducing customers’ chance of IP liabilities. Ema also never trains models on one customer’s data to benefit other customers.

Ema also offers flexible deployment options including on-premises deployment capabilities for multiple cloud systems, enabling enterprises to keep their data within their own trusted environments.

How easy is it for a new company to get started with Ema, and what does the typical onboarding process look like?

Ema is incredibly intuitive, so getting teams started on the platform is quite easy. Business users can set up Ema’s Persona(s) using pre-built templates in just minutes. They can fine tune Persona behavior with conversational instructions, use pre-built connectors to integrate with their apps and data sources, and optionally plug in any private custom models trained on their own data. Once set up, experts from the enterprise can train their Ema persona with just a few hours of feedback. Ema has been hired for multiple roles by enterprises such as Envoy Global, TrueLayer, Moneyview, and in each of these roles Ema is already performing at or above human performance.

Ema has attracted significant investment from high-profile backers. What do you believe has been the key to gaining such strong investor confidence?

We believe investors can see how Ema’s platform enables enterprises to use Agentic AI effectively, streamlining operations for substantial cost reductions and unlocking new potential revenue streams. Additionally, Ema’s management team are experts in AI and have the required technical knowledge and skill sets. We also have a strong track record of enterprise-grade delivery, reliability, and compliance. Lastly, Ema’s products are differentiated from anything else on the market, it is pioneering the latest technical advancements in Agentic AI, making us the go-to choice for any enterprise wanting to add next-generation AI to their operations.

How do you see the role of AI in the workplace evolving over the next decade, and what role will Ema play in that transformation?

Ema’s mission is to transform enterprises and help every employee work faster with the help of simple-to-activate and accurate agents. Our universal AI employee has the potential to help enterprises execute tasks across customer support, employee support, sales enablement, compliance, revenue operations, and more. We’d like to transform the workplace by allowing teams to focus on the most strategic and highest-value projects instead of mundane, administrative tasks. As a pioneer of agentic AI, Ema is leading a new era of collaboration between human and AI employees, where innovation flourishes, and productivity skyrockets.

Thank you for the great interview, readers who wish to learn more should visit Ema.

A Case Study of Amul: The Taste of India!

Utterly Butterly Delicious, Amul! How can we forget this vivacious Amul girl on every Amul Butter pack? She has her witty take on every event taking place in India! And don't we all love it! Over the years, Amul has made a place in our hearts with its top-quality dairy products and unique marketing strategy! Amul Milk, Amul Butter, Amul Cheese, cream, chocolates, and Ice creams fill you with a blissful joy! It has become a trustworthy brand, and today you do not think twice before buying an Amul Product! But as gold has to burn in the fire before becoming gold, Amul, too, had to face many challenges before becoming the favorite dairy brand of India! Many people like Mr. Varghese Kurien have put in their sincere efforts to give Amul the place where it is today. We will read about it in the case study of Amul.

Amul Case Study: History!

Amul Milk Union Limited or Amul India got established on 19 December 1946 in the town of Anand in Gujarat in India. It was a move against the brokers and agents who arbitrarily determined the milk prices and exploited the milk producers. It was the time when Polson, another dairy company, was dominating the business! It established its first dairy in Anand in 1930. The government had given the company control in the work of collecting milk from Kaira and supplying it to Mumbai and its sub-areas. Polson brought the milk at low rates from the farmers! These unfair trade practices made the farmers very angry! 

The angry farmers went to their local leader Shri. Tribhuvandas Patel. Together they approached Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel. He was a Congress leader and freedom fighter. Sardar Patel was already aware of the matter. In the year 1942, he had also pointed out the ulterior motives of Polson and the British government in a letter to Maganbhai Patel, who was a bureaucrat and well-wisher of the farmers. Sardar Patel advised the farmers to set up a cooperative (Kaira District Co-operative Milk Producers Union) and supply milk directly to the Mumbai milk division, not Polson. He asked Morarji Desai, another Congressmen and freedom fighter, to organize the milk farmers. 

The cooperative was further established and led by Dr. Verghese Kurien and H.M. Dalaya. Dalaya's ingenuity of creating skimmed milk powder using buffalo's milk, for the very first time and later putting it into commercial scale with Kurien's assistance created an early modern-day dairy in the cooperative in Anand (Gujarat).

http://bit.ly/ilara-youtube

SMALL-SCALE MULTILINGUALISM (La version française suit) We now know that monolingualism is the exception: what small societies have been doing all across the globe for millennia, is communicating in several languages, following deeply rooted social practices within a meaningful geographic setting. This egalitarian ecology, involving local languages, is typical of pre-colonial societies, and very important for our understanding of how humans have long been communicating among themselves.

This topic is central to the research of our next guest, Friederike Lüpke (U. of Helsinki), who will be convening a double round-table, Live streamed on our YouTube Channel:

On February 11, at 9h00 (UTC+1), with co-host Ruth Singer (U. of Melbourne) the round-table will focus on the Pacific space. The panelists will be: Christian Döhler (ZAS Berlin) Alexandre François (CNRS-LATTICE) Kristina Gallego (ANU Canberra) Jill Vaughan (University of Melbourne)

On February 18, at 16h00 (UTC+1), the round table will focus on Africa, Amazonia, and the Atlantic space. The panelists will be: Pierpaolo di Carlo (U. at Buffalo, The State University of New York) Patience Epps (U. of Texas at Austin) Hein van der Voort (Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi Belém) Stephanie Wanga (LSE London) Kofi Yakpo (U. of Hong Kong & Humboldt University Berlin)

Save the dates!

Nous savons maintenant que le monolinguisme est l'exception : ce que les petites sociétés font partout dans le monde depuis des millénaires, c'est communiquer en plusieurs langues, suivant des pratiques sociales profondément enracinées dans un cadre géographique bien défini et plein de signification. Cette écologie égalitaire, impliquant les langues locales, est typique des sociétés précoloniales ; elle très importante pour notre compréhension de la façon dont les humains ont de longue date communiqué entre eux.

Ce thème est au cœur de la recherche de notre prochaine invitée, Friederike Lüpke (U. d'Helsinki), qui organisera une double table ronde, diffusée en direct sur notre chaîne YouTube. Les dates et les participants sont indiqués ci-dessus dans la version anglaise de l'annonce.

Nancy Rubins at Gagosian Beverly Hills

May 26, 2021

NANCY RUBINS Fluid Space

June 24–August 6, 2021 456 North Camden Drive, Beverly Hills __________ I realized that this stuff has been around a long time, and it’s passed through this odd transition. Before it was in the earth, it was floating as a molecule in outer space—it was part of somebody’s star, or part of somebody’s exploding planet —Nancy Rubins Gagosian is pleased to present Fluid Space, an exhibition of recent sculptures and drawings by Nancy Rubins. Since the late 1970s, Rubins has transformed industrial and found objects—everything from television sets and airplane parts to canoes and carousel animals—into engineered abstractions following rhizomatic patterns. Her first public project, Big Bil-Bored (1980) was commissioned for the Cermak Plaza shopping center in Berwyn, Illinois, and she has continued to work on a large scale ever since; Big Pleasure Point, a structure composed of more than sixty small water vessels, was installed outside New York’s Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in 2006. In Fluid Space (2019–), the series from which the exhibition takes its title, Rubins uses the same cast metal animals that appeared in her Diversifolia series (2016–18), now sliced into fragments that expose their seams and undersides, calling further attention to the shape-shifting potential of the metal itself. These quasi-organic structures bloom from tables and stools, recalling works such as Table & Airplane Parts (1990–2011), which incorporate architectural foundations from which disparate elements emerge.

In sculptures such as Fizzy’s Nebuli and Noir’s Cluster (both 2019), parts of the cast animals are bound together by webs of tensile cables, producing configurations that are no longer legible as fauna, reading instead as structures that approximate rosebuds or ivy tendrils. The sculptures’ titles also emphasize their correspondence with cosmic and cellular phenomena. In these and other works, Rubins testifies to her chosen materials’ resilience while also hinting at ongoing processes of change. Also on view are large-scale and smaller unmounted drawings on paper, fixed directly to the wall in Rubins’s customary manner. She covers the entire surface of the thick paper with graphite, producing a dense, shiny, steel-gray expanse that bears traces of her hand and gives the impression of bottomless depth. In the larger drawings, multiple sheets of paper are combined and folded so that they arc away from the wall, echoing the forms of some sculptures. Nancy Rubins was born in Naples, Texas, in 1952, and lives and works in Topanga, California. Collections include the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego; Linda Pace Foundation, San Antonio, TX; Knoxville Museum of Art, TN; Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, NY; Le Consortium, Dijon, France; City of Paris, Esplanade Pierre Vidal-Naquet, l’Université Paris Diderot, France; FRAC Bourgogne, France; and Österreichisher Skulpturenpark, Graz, Austria. Exhibitions include Airplane Parts and Building, A Large Growth for San Diego, Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego (1994); Projects 49, Museum of Modern Art, New York (1995); Aspen Art Museum, CO (1997); Miami Art Museum (1999); FRAC Bourgogne, France (2005); MoMA and Airplane Parts that visited Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain 2002/2003 then visited Forte Belvedere in 2003 and is now at SculptureCenter, SculptureCenter, New York (2006); Big Pleasure Point, Public Art Fund, Lincoln Center, New York (2006); and Drawing, Sculpture, Studies, Weatherspoon Art Museum, University of North Carolina, Greensboro (2014). In 2013, Rubins received the Distinguished Women in the Arts Award from the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles. In 2018, Monochrome II, a permanent outdoor sculpture, was installed at the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Bentonville, AR. _____ Nancy Rubins, Fizzy’s Nebuli, 2019, aluminum, brass, bronze, stainless steel, and stainless-steel wire, 79 × 103 × 115 inches (200.7 × 261.6 × 292.1 cm) © Nancy Rubins.
