The Top AI Tools That Are Changing How We Do Business in 2024
AI Tools is no longer some sci-fi fantasy—it’s here, it’s real, and it’s changing everything about how we do business. In 2024, AI is a game-changer that smart businesses can’t afford to ignore. Whether it's about speeding up your day-to-day tasks, getting a better understanding of your customers, or staying ahead of the competition, AI is where it’s at. So, let’s break down the tools that are making waves this year.

Why AI Matters More Than Ever for Businesses
AI is like having a superpower for your business—it takes data and turns it into insights, handles tasks automatically, and even gives each customer a personal touch without you lifting a finger.

It’s what helps you make smarter decisions, faster, and that’s a huge win for any business looking to grow

Data is everywhere, but making sense of it can be a headache. Thankfully, tools like Power BI and Tableau take the guesswork out of it.

C. Marketing Tools: HubSpot and Persado
Marketing is all about making a connection, and AI tools like HubSpot and Persado are all about making those connections count.
D. Sales Automation: Salesforce Einstein and Drift
For sales teams, AI tools are like having an extra set of hands (or several!) to take care of the heavy lifting.
E. Content Creation Made Easy: Jasper AI and Grammarly Business
Keeping up with content demands can feel like a full-time job, but AI tools are here to help you get ahead.
F. Smarter HR Tools: Workday AI and Pymetrics
HR can be a challenge, but AI tools are taking a lot of the stress out of hiring and employee management.

Productivity Boost: Your team can spend time on strategy instead of busywork.
The Challenges of Adopting AI in 2024
Of course, AI isn’t a magic wand. It comes with its own set of hurdles—like finding the right talent, protecting privacy, and getting the tech to play nice with what you already have. But if you tackle these challenges head-on, the rewards are worth it.
Bridging the Skills Gap
AI expertise is in demand, and training your team or bringing in specialists can make all the difference.
Keeping Data Safe
Data is the fuel that powers AI, so keeping it secure and compliant with regulations is a top priority.
What’s Next for AI in Business?
AI isn’t slowing down. In the coming years, we’ll see more focus on ethical AI, advancements in autonomous tech, and hyper-personalization in every industry.

AI is getting fairer and more transparent, with companies pushing to remove biases and increase accountability.
Autonomous AI
From self-driving cars to smart warehouses, autonomous AI is about to change how we move, ship, and manufacture.
Super-Personalized Experiences
AI will get better at understanding what customers want before they even know they want it.
Final Thoughts: Make AI Work for You
In 2024, AI is a no-brainer. It’s time to embrace it, use it to streamline your processes, and start delivering experiences your customers will love. AI is here to make your business smarter, faster, and more adaptable—and if you’re ready to lean in, the future looks bright.

yo im gonna revamp one of my old characters to be a demiprince of meridia. for insp I would like you to tell me your thoughts on meridia 🎤 - tumblr user mothermara
boy would I!!!
Lets start with her origins: She was created by Magnus from the Aether, as Merid-Nunda. Essentially born of him, and him alone. This particular text describes Magnus as cold, and uncaring. His love for his creations seems to be like how one can love an object, or a piece of art. Merid is often described as a wayward daughter, and I like to draw upon this in my canon pretty strongly.
The Magne-Ge pantheon (actually the hardest tes text I have read) describes her with high importance. She was Magnus' daughter, an act of glorious creation. This is headcanon (with support) territory, but I consider her an active agent of the relatively passive Magnus. She hunted down spirits that disrupted the natural flow of things, which was often Molag Bal.
Tumblr media
She changed when Lorkhan came along, which started her path to becoming Meridia. However unlike the aedra she didn't participate in his creation, and fled with her father. I think she regretted this decision (which is explicitly stated here), because she began to distance herself from her father. She became a Star-Orphan (not to be confused with Magne-ge), along with spirits such as Xero-Lyg and Mnemo-Li. But Lorkhan, whom she loved, according to this text, died, and she was left alone with her sisters.
It's been my theory for a few years, that she created Mehrunes Dagon in Lyg to fill the void left in his wake. And hence why Dagon considers himself the rightful owner of Mundus. She consorted with the Daedra (I don't take consort to mean an actual consort, just an association with Daedra), and her father cast her down. She's left alone, an orphaned star, but she continues on and takes it upon herself to guard Lorkhan's creation, ensuring the energies of it flow, and it never falls stagnant.

Hi! First of all thanks for running this blog, it's a goldmine. So I've been running Spire and spy fiction is obviously a major touchstone for it but I'd like to know if there are more games that scratch that itch, regardless of setting.
I have a preference for the less "spectacular" kind of spy (more intelligence-gathering and political intrigue than stealthy gadgets and action scenes) but any suggestion is welcomed :)
THEME: Spies & Intrigue
Thank you very much for your sentiments! I feel very good about the options I’ve managed to rustle up for you today.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Uneasy Lies the Head, by Adam Bell.
A cracked throne, an imploded sun, revolution at the gates: disaster looms over the realm as self-serving nobles plot and scheme to shape the world to their liking. When those visions clash, turmoil erupts and the court is thrown into chaos.
Uneasy Lies the Head is a GM-less tabletop RPG where everyone plays a member of a tumultuous royal court. Each player chooses a playbook to define their character, and weaves a web of alliance and animosity with the other players.
This isn’t necessarily a spy game, but it will give you the intrigue you’re looking for, and there are mechanics built-in for a betrayal of some kind. Each player has their own playbook with special moves associated with their role. Using resources such as tokens and dice, players will attempt to fulfill their agendas by bartering resources, making alliances, and forging deals. The game is also setting-flexible, so you could play as a space oligarchy, a feudal monarchy, or a high school lunch table! If you want social intrigue, I recommend Uneasy Lies the Head.
Shot Through The Heart, By Roll for Romance.
Go undercover and get under the covers as you take on a top-secret mission filled with danger, desire, and deception!
Drawing inspiration from sexy spy tropes, Shot Through the Heart is a Caltrop Core game where players are secret agents on a mission and looking for love. With 4 classic agent types, over-the-top code names, and messy interparty romantic entanglements, each agent plays a unique role in the mission. Will you play as a seductive Fatale who charms their way past danger or perhaps a Tech Specialist who has yet to see a code they can't crack? 
Secret Objectives add intrigue and player vs. player dynamics that will leave players wondering if a fellow agent is a mole working to sabotage the mission or just flustered because they're secretly attracted to them.
This game is about literal spies and therefore will expect dramatic heists and stealthy conflict, but it adds a layer of personal entanglements, which will provide obstacles as they attempt to complete their dangerous heists and super-secret missions. The social aspect is highly personal, and threatened the party just as much as enemy agents. You definitely need player buy-in when it comes to the romantic entanglements, but if the players don’t mind wrestling with secret heartaches and heartbreaks, this might be the game for you!
Shadow Protocol, by Club Xero.
An ultra-lite ruleset for running espionage thrillers, Shadow Protocol is designed to fit any setting or era. Character creation is meant to be fast, stateless, and freeform.
The biggest risk in spy games is getting caught, and you’ll be fighting against that throughout an entire game of Shadow Protocol. You’ll have to do your best to avoid suspicion, manage your stress, and stop yourself to do something that brings unwanted trouble or personal harm. How much of the obstacles presented to the party are physical or social depends on both the characters all of the players decide to play, as well as the objectives set out by the GM. If you want to battle the pressure of keeping an operation under wraps, I heavily recommend this game.
The Service, by Rocket Surgeon Games.
It’s the height of the Cold War, and the world is divided into two competing superpowers. On the frontlines of this ideological conflict we find the spies and intelli- gence officers that use information, disinformation and coercion to any sordid ends their masters command. 
The United Kingdom, having lost much of its for- mer influence on the world stage, still actively uses its intelligence agencies to further its national interests, even if the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) can’t compete with the KGB or the CIA in terms of budget or power.
In The Service, players take on the roles of intelligence officers working for a the UK Secret Intelligence Service. It is meant to emulate the kind of unglamorous, bureaucratic and morally grey spy fiction of Le Carré, Len Deighton or The Sandbaggers.
Your characters in this game are not high-powered, fantastic individuals, but rather special officers doing the best they can in an extremely high-stakes scenario. This game is set in a very specific time period, and uses the Powered by the Apocalypse System to purposefully emulate WWII fiction. 
What I really like about this game is that the playbooks are designed to look like British passports, which immediately helps players understand what kind of game they’re playing, and also helps them immerse themselves in their characters. This game may only be in playtest, but there’s already a lot to love about it.

Hello! I’m quite new here and have done some reading up, but is there anywhere that explains what the AU is about / could you explain? Only if you don’t mind of course. (I love learning about others’ AUs.)
Also: -pokes PK’s belly-
oh absolutely! be prepared though, this is going to be a long one. also an important note: i can't write, so i haven't written any fics about this, which means many details can change/develop over time as it's something i think about 24/7, but i'll try to write down what i currently have in mind and what i'm more or less confident with
so the gist of the au is that pk went into hibernation in the dream realm, as opposed to dying as he (presumably) does in canon, and then moved to dirtmouth with hornet and hollow. but there's many aspects of the au that trace way back into his past, so i'll go over those first if you want to learn more. i will put a "keep reading" divider here cause it's going to be quite long haha
pk was always an outcast among other wyrms, he was born a runt and had no physical strength for playfighting with the other hatchlings, for which he was often mocked. instead, he preferred to quietly observe and study things, which is how he got interested in mortal bugs. yes, they were food, wyrms are a carnivorous species after all, but he felt it was wrong to treat them as just fodder, like the other members of his kind did. he wanted to create, not destroy, and he wanted to share it with the mortals, as he saw parts of himself in them and wanted to help them reach their full potential
wyrms as a species were highly territorial, so that and the fact that they could reproduce in litters and increase their population numbers ended up being their downfall, as their constant fights over territory became more and more violent, causing them to start killing each other much more frequently. this constant aggression caused their numbers to decrease over time, and eventually they disappeared. that is when pk decided to claim the territory that later became hallownest as his own, and abandoned his form in favor of something more approachable. he met the white lady, married her, and granted the most intelligent bugs in hallownest sapience, leading to the creation of the kingdom
it didn't take long until the cracks began to show. he wasn't used to getting this much attention, so when the bugs started worshiping him, he began hiding in his workshop, away from everyone, having doubts about his self-worth and whether he can live up to those expectations. alas, the worship he received lead to the moths abandoning the radiance, and the start of the infection. he promised himself he wouldn't fail the kingdom, and so he started looking for ways to stop it, eventually deciding on the vessel plan. he's always had doubts about it, but it was his last resort and he didn't have much time, so he had to try. and thus hollow was born, the vessel that was able to climb up the abyss, proving their strength and claiming the title of the hollow knight. unfortunately for pk, as much as he kept reminding himself that the vessels had no emotion or thought, that they weren't supposed to be children, the truth is that he got attached, as his parental instincts told him to do. with this realization, came intense guilt about all of the vessels, something which would haunt him from that point on, made even worse with the cryptic signs he saw in his dreams warning him of hallownest's downfall (this is how his foresight ability works in my au)
but he had to proceed with the plan, he had no other choice, and that prompted the bargain with herrah and the birth of hornet. he immediately got attached, all his instincts which he had to repress with hollow have finally found an outlet. hornet became the light of his life, and they grew extremely close, especially after herrah went to sleep, as pk made sure to be here for her at all times, taking the role of both her father and mother (and going as far as killing and decapitating xero in a blind feral rage when he threatened her). unfortunately, all the guilt about the vessels led to him and the white lady separating down the line, as even just looking at each other caused both of them immense pain. so after that, and after hollow was sealed in the temple of the black egg, it was just him and hornet, which made their bond even stronger as they were the only family each of them had left
but as we know, the plan failed, and the infection returned. this caused pk to completely break down, all his fears and guilt piling up, making him unable to do anything. he wouldn't leave his palace room, he wouldn't do his duties as the king, he was as good as dead. hornet was away at the hive at the time, training with queen vespa and her knights, so she wasn't there when pk's breakdown lead to his disappearance, although she noticed there was something bothering him long before that, he just never talked about it with her. she was shocked to learn that he was gone, and after a period of blaming herself for not being there for him, she grew bitter and angry about the fact that he left her all alone with no word
the reason for his disappearance was hibernation. this is a process that is extremely rare among wyrms, as it's caused by intense distress and fracturing of the mind, and for such a violent species, death often comes way before that point. it's essentially a rebirth, a complete reset of their mind and memories that allows them to continue. in the case of pk, this process was interrupted by ghost, which caused him to lose all of his powers. no powers meant that he wasn't able to sustain himself with soul, and had to find actual food, so he left the white palace behind in the dream realm (while he was able to exit it, he had no means of entering it again) and spent the next few weeks running around hallownest and surviving off of tiktiks and other non-sapient bugs. he wanted to be forgotten, so he avoided any interaction with bugs who still lived there (as a side note, i quite like the idea of him defacing statues of himself, in an effort to make them unrecognizable and to show that he never deserved them in the first place. so you'd find old statues of the pale king with their faces scratched away or horns broken off, and any king's idols you'd encounter would be shattered into pieces)
hornet was not aware that her father was back until she heard zote's panicked warning about a "white monster with a crown who killed and ate bugs" after he ran into pk in greenpath. she had to go and check herself, as she had a feeling the description matched someone she had known before, and she was correct. after stumbling upon pk in greenpath, and following a brief angry exchange, she decided to take him with her to dirtmouth, where he met hollow. seeing hollow forgive their father made hornet realize that she also wants to give him a second chance, as despite her anger, she did miss him a lot
this is also where grimm comes into play, as he and his troupe remained in dirtmouth after the ritual was interrupted by ghost's disappearance in godhome. grimm and pk met years ago, not long after the kingdom was first created, and over time became close friends, which evolved into something more, though neither of them admitted it at the time. their reunion in dirtmouth caused all of those feelings to spark up again, leading to them starting a relationship
all of the sins of the past still greatly affect pk. his fear of failure makes him terrified of making even the smallest mistakes, he's prone to panicking and apologizing for even the most insignificant matters, and he's frequently haunted by nightmares of the vessels, his failure to save the kingdom and all the pain he caused his family. then there's the more feral side of him, something which he tried to repress while he was a king, and now embraces as part of his new life (he is cringe but he is free...). moreover, he's ashamed of his mistakes, and refuses to let anyone call him "the pale king", choosing to go by the name "wyrm" instead. he's grateful for the second chance he was given, he wants to do better and be a good father, especially to hollow, but he's still emotionally broken. hornet's anger with him sours their relationship and makes it much more difficult for them to get as close as they used to, but i definitely see it improving over time, as they still love each other dearly, there's just a lot of emotional baggage both of them have to deal with first
i think that's basically it for the backbone of the au, it all leads to the point i'm at now: exploring the character dynamics, thinking of where they're going to go next, introducing more side characters (i still want to include quirrel, just thinking about his potential design and how he's going to fit in), making up silly non-canon scenarios, and so on. i want to eventually make a doc file, or something of that sort, detailing each character and the au in general. i picture it as kind of like fandom wiki articles, with personality descriptions, backstories and relationships included, just to keep it all neatly organized (and maybe suitable to share in public haha)
i apologize if this is all hard to get through, i tend to ramble quite a lot and, again, i'm not good at writing, so this is closer to an incoherent mess than an actual story overview, but i hope it's somewhat enjoyable to read. do feel free to ask any questions if you want to learn more! i always enjoy responding to them, plus it helps painting a clearer, more consistent picture of the au in my head :)

Magna Ge \ Магне-Ге
"Magnus is the sun, the largest hole in Oblivion, and the gateway to magic. Magnus was present at the creation of the mortal plane, and, in fact, was its architect (Lorkhan was its advocate and inspiration). Prehistoric (before ME2500, startyear) Nirn was a magical place, and highly unstable to the first mortals. Magnus then left, some say in disgust, and Oblivion filled in the void with the Void. His escape was not easy, and tatters of Magnus remain in the firmament as stars." ― Cosmology
The Magna Ge, also known as Magne-Ge, Children of Magnus, or Star Orphans, are a group of Et'Ada who followed Magnus into Aetherius when he fled Mundus during the Dawn Era. Whereas Magnus tore a hole through Oblivion into Aetherius which later became the sun, the Magne Ge tore smaller holes which became the stars. The Magna Ge are now synonymous with the stars which they had created. Some say what is left of Magnus on the world is felt and controlled by mortals as magic.
According to Mankar Camoran, they are attributed to secretly creating Mehrunes Dagon in the bowels of Lyg.
The existence of Magna-Ge under the names Mnemo-Li (Mnemoli, "Blue Star"), Merid-Nunda and Xero-Lyg, who escaped from Magnus, is known reliably.
Merid-Nunda became what is now called Meridia. It is known that she was associated with Magnus, the god of light, more than any other.
«Meridia was in some times associated with the Sun Magnus. The best known source of this association is the treatise Merid-nunda, openly depicting Meridia as the willful solar daughter, banished from heaven for her relationship with unauthorised spectra» ― The imperial censure of the Daedric Lords
Mnemoli only appears in the skies above Nirn during a period of no-time. There is some special mnemonic magic associated with it.
«...Special mention should be made of the Blue Star, called "Mnemoli" by the Alesstics, which passes through this part of Aurbis every untimely time. The Psijiks regard it with great reverence, and many of their brethren make pilgrimages to Velot as it approaches, for when it passes, flames engulf the mountain there. The mountain is regarded as one of the last safe havens of the Dwemers before they disappear from this world...» ― Vivek, The Book of Hours.
It is possible that the Star of Azura (the Twilight Star, which briefly appears in the sky under the constellation of the Horse when the sun hangs low above the horizon) is connected with Mnemoli, for Azura is the patroness of the Psijic Order and the Forerunner of the Sotha Sil, one of the best known of them.
«...According to the texts, Mnemoli is the willful child of ANU, one of a pantheon of forgotten deities known as the Star Orphans... a family of gods and goddesses who no doubt felt abandoned when the Sun retreated from the Creation World. Like many of her brothers and sisters, Mnemoli was both baffled and fascinated by Aurbis, and explored his five quarters as thoroughly as she could (...)» ― Vivek, The Book of Hours
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Магнус - это солнце, самая большая дыра в Забвении и врата в магию. Магнус присутствовал при создании плана смертных и, фактически, был его архитектором (Лорхан был его защитником и вдохновителем). Доисторический (до ME2500, звездный год) Нирн был магическим местом и очень нестабильным для первых смертных. Затем Магнус ушел, некоторые говорят, с отвращением, и Обливион заполнил пустоту Пустотой. Его побег был нелегким, и обрывки Магнуса остались на небосводе в виде звезд". ― Космология
Магне-Ге, также Магна Ге — что в переводе означает «Дети Магнуса» (следует понимать как «последователи Магнуса») и «Звёздные Сироты». Это группа эт'Ада, которые были «рождены» из чистой крови Ану. Магне-Ге, в отличие от аэдра, не стали жертвовать своим бессмертием ради Нирна, и, вслед за Магнусом, покинули его вскоре после создания. Уходя в Этериус, они прорвали завесу Обливиона, тем самым создавая звёзды (дыры в завесе, через которые свет Этериуса и магия созвездий попадают на план смертных, влияя на жизнь всех живущих в Нирне).
Достоверно известно о существовании Магне-Ге под именами Мнемо-Ли (Мнемоли, «Синяя Звезда»), Мерид-Нунда и Ксеро-Лиг, сбежавших от Магнуса.
Мерид-Нунда стала той, кого ныне зовут Меридия. Известно, что она больше других была связана с Магнусом, богом света.
Меридия в некоторые времена ассоциировалась с Солнцем Магнусом. Наиболее известным источником такой связи является трактат „Мерид-нунда“, открыто изображающий Меридию в роли своенравной солнечной дочери, изгнанной с небес за отношения с недозволенными спектрами — Имперский ценз Даэдрических Лордов
Мнемоли появляется в небе над Нирном лишь в период безвременья. С ней связана некая особая мнемолическая магия.
…Особого упоминания заслуживает Синяя Звезда, которую Алесстики называют „Мнемоли“, что проходит через эту часть Аурбиса каждое безвременье. Псиджики относятся к ней с большим благоговением, а многие из их братии проделывают паломничество в Велот при её приближении, потому что когда она пролетает, тамошнюю гору охватывает пламя. Эта гора считается одним из последних прибежищ двемеров перед их исчезновением из этого мира… — Вивек, «Книга Часов»
Возможно, Звезда Азуры (Сумеречная Звезда, на короткое время появляющаяся на небе под созвездием Коня, когда солнце висит низко над горизонтом) связана с Мнемоли, ибо Азура — покровительница псиджиков и Предтеча Соты Сила, одного из известнейших среди них.
…согласно текстам, Мнемоли — своенравное дитя АНУ, одна из пантеона забытых божеств, известных как „Звёздные Сироты“… семейства богов и богинь, что, несомненно, почувствовали себя покинутыми, когда Солнце Отступило от Миро-Создания. Как и многие её братья и сёстры, Мнемоли была одновременно сбита с толку и восхищена Аурбисом, и исследовала пять его четвертей так тщательно, как только могла(…) — Вивек, «Книга Часов»

"Oli it is, then." Xerophan clasps his free hand over Olivine's, then, but this time the glove over his hand seems to be pushing back a chilling cold. He smiles, kindly, then drops both of his hands from Olivine's.
He seems a bit taken aback at first, his head tipping to the side as Olivine explains the act of self-preservation.
"That's... unusual. There are few religions who focus more on preserving the self, than offering everything up to their god." He hums quietly under his breath, reaching up to tug gently at the scarf around his neck.
"Your god must be kind, then, yes?" Xerophan tries, momentarily, to peel his eyes away from that dazzling smile. It proves itself an impossible task, however, and he finds himself staring at that kind, gentle face.
- 🕯
The temperature shift is certainly interesting...but with Xerophan's kindness so far, Olivine sees no reason to worry. Plus, he actually seems...interested in what Olivine is saying! It wasn't as if the priest wasn't used to people listening to him, quite the opposite, but they always seem...distracted, by something. Hmm.
"Indeed! Of course, there are common practices among other religions that we share, such as frugality and kindness amongst neighbors, but the God of Klein takes pride in His creations, and wants them to treat themselves with that same love and pride!"
The priest looks up to Xerophan with a warm, wide smile, finding it rather easy to maintain eye contact as they spoke. It helped a lot that Xero's eyes seemed to actually be focused on Olivine's face, rather than hanging down like most who spoke with him. Oli never really understood why others seemed to stare down, or straight forward, whenever they conversed...
"He is quite kind, yes! Generous, giving us such a lovely place to call home, and incredibly forgiving of any and all sins." Olivine...has a strange look in his eyes for a brief moment, before it's replaced with the same warm, welcoming smile. "I don't know what I'd do without such a kind God."

Essential Financial Tools for Bookkeeping
Tumblr media
1. Accounting Software
Accounting software is the foundation of efficient financial management for any organization. These programs handle tasks like transaction recording, account preparation, and invoice processing.

2. Expense Tracking Tools
Expense tracking tools are essential for businesses that need to closely monitor expenditures, including travel, meals, and entertainment. While many accounting software platforms offer expense tracking features, standalone tools like Expensify or Zoho Expense provide more robust solutions.

Variance Analysis: Compares actual spending against the budget to identify discrepancies.
Forecasting: Uses trends to predict future income and expenses.
Collaboration: Allows multiple team members to participate in budget creation and adjustment.

Tips for Maintaining Organized Financial Records
Tumblr media
1. Choose the Right Accounting Method
Selecting the appropriate accounting method—cash basis or accrual basis—is key to maintaining accurate books. Cash accounting records transactions when money is exchanged, while accrual accounting records transactions when they occur, regardless of payment.
For most businesses, accrual accounting provides a clearer picture of long-term profitability and performance.
2. Separate Personal and Business Finances
Mixing personal and business finances complicates bookkeeping and tax filing. Keep separate accounts to ensure accurate financial reporting and improve cash flow management.
3. Regular Reconciliation
Reconcile your financial records with bank statements at least once a month. This ensures that any discrepancies are identified and corrected promptly, maintaining the accuracy of your books.
4. Periodic Review of Financial Reports
Review financial reports—such as income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements—regularly, either monthly or quarterly. This allows businesses to make informed decisions, allocate resources wisely, and identify areas where cost-cutting can boost profitability.
Conclusion
Financial tools like accounting software, expense trackers, and payroll systems are essential for businesses to maintain accurate records and manage finances effectively. By incorporating these tools and following best practices like regular reconciliation and report reviews, businesses can save time, reduce costs, and position themselves for sustainable growth in today’s competitive landscape. Embracing financial technology is no longer optional—it’s a necessity for staying competitive and profitable.
