## Content

Greetings friends, Thank you to all those for your kind words after the launch of the inaugural edition of 'This Week in All Things AI' with its quirky acronym TWIATA. It validated to me that there is desire for many amongst us to keep abreast of the rapid changing world of AI tools, products, services and that curators need to work on enabling as wide a distribution for their curation as possible. Feel free to share this publication link to those in your family, friends and acquaintances who have a curiosity in knowing more about the rapid change in AI Surprisingly one of the first challenges I had was determining what week of the year it is. Turns out that there are lot of standards so I decided to stick to the ISO-8601 standard which tells me what day of the week it is when each week's post from TWIATA is sent out . My current plan is to send it out every Sunday morning Below is an answer from Perplexity when I asked what week was today by various standards https://www.perplexity.ai/search/how-are-week-numbers-in-the-ye-EHlj8GwUQK2SrTDwe6KsNA For those who would like to be on the Telegram group and receive information in a more 'real-time' basis and even look at the historical messages in the Telegram group going as far back as late 2023 as well as read/view other content that I've curated over the years then I invite you to visit the following URL which consolidates a number of linksgoolamabbas | Instagram, TikTok | LinktreeChief Knowledge Officer @ Animoca Brands.
