Wake-Up Call With Bill Lundun & Gerry Snyder

Jennifer Richardson & Val Sharr - Sims and Seams

Sip and Seams, is a unique pop-up consignment event that is redefining how people shop, sell, and give back.At its core, Sip and Seams is about creating a circular fashion economy. Consignors can earn money by selling high-end fashion, shoppers can save money while building their wardrobe, and together, we help reduce waste. The consignors then can donate their unsold items to our partner philanthropy, and this time, it is Looking Glass. This is our fourth event, and we have already made a meaningful impact, previously partnering with Hope & Safety Alliance and Sponsors.
With fashion’s environmental impact under increasing scrutiny, Sip and Seams provide a practical, stylish, and community-driven solution.

THE NEXT WAVE OF AI IS HERE: AUTONOMOUS AI AGENTS ARE AMAZING—AND SCARY
The relentless hype around AI makes it difficult to separate the signal from the noise. So it’s understandable if you’ve tuned out recent talk about autonomous AI agents. A word of advice: Don’t. The significance of agentic AI may actually exceed the hype.  An Autonomous AI agent can interact with the environment, make decisions, take action, and learn from the process. This represents a seismic shift in the use of AI and, accordingly, presents corresponding opportunities—and risks.  To date, generative AI tools, largely subject to human supervision, have been designed to function by being pretrained (the P in GPT) on vast amounts of data such as large language models (LLMs) or other defined data sources and then to provide responses to inputs or prompts (a question or instruction) provided by users. This has proven to be an impressive way to come up with humanlike responses to queries or prompts—like a baby imitating sounds or words without really knowing what it is saying. Kind of adorable, but unlikely to conjure Newton’s Principia or a Beethoven symphony. So, are these generative tools really functioning as creative, independent beings? Doubtful. But that may be changing dramatically.  A new approach allows AI to interact directly and more autonomously with data and react in a dynamic way—a lot more like what humans do. This technology relies on autonomous AI agents, which Bill Gates believes are going to upend the software industry, bringing about the biggest revolution in computing since we went from typing commands to tapping on icons. And that may be an understatement.

Mary Hamilton - QR Code Scams

BBB: DON’T SCAN QR CODES ON UNEXPECTED PACKAGES
A package you didn’t order could be a fun surprise but be careful – especially if it comes with a QR code. It might be the setup for a scam.  In a “brushing” scam, you receive a package you didn’t order, often without a return address. This is often a setup by unscrupulous companies who found your address online. After the company ships the product to you, they can post a fake, positive review on your behalf to improve their store’s ratings and get more sales.  Reports to BBB Scam Tracker over the last few months show a twist on brushing scams where the package contains a QR code. The code comes with instructions to scan it to find out who sent the package or how to start a return. Scanning the QR code can lead to a phishing website or download malware onto your device.  In one BBB Scam Tracker report, a consumer received a package of pasta via Amazon in her name. Thinking it was a gift from a friend, she scanned the QR code that came with the package. The QR code took her to a website that appeared to be Amazon. The consumer said she has received a higher-than-normal amount of scam emails since scanning the QR code.  In another BBB Scam Tracker report, a consumer received a ring in the mail that he did not order. The ring came with a QR code. The consumer checked BBB Scam Tracker before scanning the code, and after reading other reports about brushing scams, he decided not to scan it.
