New generative AI capabilities reduce cost and accelerate workflows by summarizing raw product data into Digital Product Passports (DPPs)

SALT LAKE CITY, July 10, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Today, PicoNext announced the launch of the PicoNext AI Assistant, a new generative artificial intelligence capability in its Digital Product Passport (DPP) platform that frees companies from the tedious, manual workflows of organizing DPP product data. The PicoNext AI Assistant is the first generative AI product to summarize raw product data into streamlined, user-friendly DPPs, allowing companies to dramatically reduce time and cost in publishing Digital Product Passports required by the European Union and other jurisdictions.

“With the new PicoNext AI Assistant, brands can dramatically reduce the cost and time it takes to prepare Digital Product Passports through generative AI that automatically summarizes these key product data points into templates aligned with emerging regulatory standards.” —Dave Dickson, PicoNext

Using PicoNext AI Assistant to distill product data into DPPs

Integrated with the DPP Planner, a one-stop tool in PicoNext to gather and organize DPP product data, the PicoNext AI Assistant allows organizations to ingest raw, unstructured product data in a variety of formats. Companies can then use the AI Assistant to automatically and quickly create summaries for sustainability attributes in a DPP template aligned with regulatory standards – including sections for materials origin, carbon footprint, environmental impact, recycling, and more.

Using the PicoNext AI Assistant, companies can avoid costly, custom integrations with enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and other data silos by harnessing generative AI to analyze and summarize product data into Digital Product Passports.

Customer case study: Using PicoNext AI Assistant to accelerate DPP creation

Weartek, an Australian manufacturer of high-quality, performance apparel products for workers in mining, oil and gas, construction, government, and emergency services industries, used the PicoNext AI Assistant to accelerate its workflow to communicate important DPP product information to sustainability-minded customers. PicoNext AI Assistant helped Weartek streamline DPP publishing for its new line of personal protective equipment (PPE) designed to provide electrical workers with safe apparel, including with heavy-duty Arc Flash protection.

“Using the PicoNext AI Assistant, we quickly distilled complex, raw data for our Weartek 4836 line of performance workwear products into customer-facing Digital Product Passports,” said Nick Pearce, Founder and Managing Director of Weartek, “With our AI-powered DPPs, we differentiated Weartek with potential customers using our sustainability data — at a fraction of the time and cost than it otherwise would have taken us to do so.”

Preparing DPPs to comply with regulations

“Companies are preparing their Digital Product Passports not only to engage sustainability-focused customers, but to comply with regulations in the European Union and other locations,” said Dave Dickson, Founder of PicoNext. “With the new PicoNext AI Assistant, brands can dramatically reduce the cost and time it takes to prepare Digital Product Passports through generative AI that automatically summarizes these key product data points into templates aligned with emerging regulatory standards.”

Life After Hate Launches HateEraser–A Revolutionary Spray Paint Remover to Eliminate Hate-Based Graffiti

HateEraser removes hate-based graffiti in communities and gives first-time offenders a second chance through judge-mandated service

NEW YORK, Nov. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, on the International Day for Tolerance and in response to the alarming 600% rise in hate-based graffiti, the Chicago-based nonprofit Life After Hate has launched HateEraser—the first aerosol-gel based formula designed to quickly eradicate hate speech from most surfaces.

Life After Hate is partnering with police stations across the country to distribute HateEraser as part of a new program in which first-time offenders are required to use it during court-mandated community service. This initiative is based on the belief that educating offenders on the damage their actions cause can help prevent them from continuing a life of hate.

“We know that hate-based speech and hate-based graffiti are the first steps to hate-based violence,” remarked Life After Hate Director Pat Riccards. “HateEraser works to change the futures of people motivated by hate and extremist ideologies through education, community service, and helping people alter their path away from a life of continued radical hate.”

The HateEraser formula contains acetone, xylene, and multiple varieties of alcohol and hydrocarbons. “This unique combination of active ingredients,” according to Savannah Technical College Chemistry Professor Ujjvala Bagal, “removes hateful markings as quickly as they were made.”

Street artists do not want to be associated with hate-based graffiti. That’s why they joined in on the HateEraser effort. The cans were designed by street artists from across the country to help inspire change in their communities, with every design telling a different story of acceptance, anti-hate, and empathy. “The hope is that through the HateEraser program, education, action, and strengthening hate crime laws, we can help foster a safe and more accepting community,” said Dina Peck, Chief Creative Officer of The Purpose Group.

“Hate has no place in our art,” Jax, one of the artists on the project, said. “And I’m proud to be a part of something that makes real change in my community.”

Today’s news is the latest glimpse into how Life After Hate has been embracing several innovative solutions for helping individuals disengage from hateful violence and make our communities safer. Last May, the organization unveiled Daily Former Discord, a multi-level public engagement tool. It’s designed to help those currently engaged in violent extremism, those looking to exit such hate groups, and those who have successfully left lives of hate behind reengage in society.

DermRays Black Friday Event Offers Year’s Biggest Savings and Industry Recognition

Published

By

PLEASANTON, Calif., Nov. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — This Black Friday, DermRays is excited to announce its most significant sale of the year, offering $130 off sitewide from November 16-30th, 2024. With this limited-time discount, customers can experience the brand’s advanced home laser hair removal technology at unbeatable prices. Don’t miss out on this exclusive opportunity to invest in smoother, hair-free skin for less.

In recognition of our commitment to quality and innovation, DermRays V6S model was recently ranked second among the top ten at-home laser hair removal devices globally by Harper’s Bazaar. In their article, “The 10 Best At-Home Laser Hair Removal Devices, According to the Pros“, DermRays stood out as a trusted leader, celebrated for delivering professional-grade results in a convenient, at-home device. For more details, you can explore the full article from Harper’s Bazaar.

It’s essential to clarify the long-term goals of laser hair removal. Technically, it is a process of “laser hair reduction” rather than complete “removal,” as some hair regrowth is normal over time. Even with consistent treatments, new hair from dormant follicles may appear after one to three years. At-home laser devices offer a manageable, convenient skincare routine, giving lasting, visible results in a way that’s easier, faster, and more affordable than traditional methods like waxing or shaving. DermRays aims to set realistic expectations and empower customers with effective, salon-quality solutions at home.

Join us this Black Friday to experience DermRays’ transformative technology at our lowest prices ever, and enjoy smoother, more radiant skin.
