For example, one automaton planet has mostly light robots, but double or triple the spawn rate. One planet staffs robot bases with double the bots or has increased patrols near bases or bases have a guaranteed tank each or all three. On the bug side, one bug planet can be 3/4 bile spewers. High command recommends auto cannon and grenade launcher. A locust swarm of hunters or a dust storm with hunters gliding through. High command recommends shotguns and fire.
The game feels stale because it's the same patrol/enemy composition in all medium planets. And the same patrol/enemy composition in suicide for all planets...etc.
I'd like to see a little variation besides weather and mission type. Keep us on our toes.
The players love their robot Vietnam's and it's fun when we have multiple Vietnams. Can you imagine a planet that's only stalkers and the only mission is to raise the flag as a very small defend sized map? Could we beat it once, let alone liberate it? If not a whole planet, maybe this IS the mission.
What if we mixed it up every 3 months? Boom, they hit that reset button again. People don't figure out a map after the first time, they have to play it many times until they figure out the ins and outs completely. This naturally keeps it fresh while presenting a unique challenge for longer.
I do have a pause for warning though. I don't actually want spawn compositions randomized. That would be horrible except for maybe 1 bot and bug planet that's completely random, randomized each game, for those epic sharable videos of whatever you can imagine because it's literally random every game, so it's possible. Back on track, what I'm trying to say is say you have 253 planets. You give 200 employees 1 planet each to do what they want and they're going to compete the fuck out of it. They'll be offering to make custom models, textures, features for free on the weekends. Oh and Charger Joel gets 50. I get 3 because this idea is brilliant. If Joel sees certain planets being played more, there can be a promotion and demotion of planet makeups each season and shuffled around. This allows the community to experience new planet holders or search for which planet got the fan favorite old school malevelon Creek template.
A concern is Arrowhead thought of this and determined it would be too difficult for the players to adapt that often. (Or you can buff the guns or reduce strategem time on harder composition lobbies)
This was a fun one I came up with while writing this:
Planet affect: alien dust reduces all gun fire rate-over time, recoil handling increased-over time. High command recommends heavy machine gun for planet. If you survive with the gun until max fire rate penalty, your recoil handling is so high, you now have a gattling sniper. Everyone needs a little godmode.
Imagine the community when they find out about gattling sniper planet, and the streamers showing you the best planet you're not landing on. Fml, we probably don't need those videos in our lives, but I want these ideas in my game.

I got into 3D printing a few months ago and have gone through many paid and free websites trying to find specific files for terrain and minis and I realized that it took quite a bit of effort to find some of these pieces! I'd like to get a list started that includes both paid and free sources for files which are categorized by tiles, scatter terrain, minis etc. I'll edit as their are more comments and hopefully we can all help each other out.

It includes that last line in the output, so it might be fun to scan your FrankenSPAM for tell-tale filler text at the end like that.
What have we learned? AI-text is basically easy to spot, and is really not that different from the years of fill-in-the-blank templates and business mail that commerce has deployed for decades. It sounds canned and trite, because it's the "elevator music" of text.
I have seen a lot of work posts on UpWork just like this, and indeed on dozens of other job-board sites. I love the emphasis on "story-teller" and "narrative," which do ring true as the hot content-creator buzzwords of 2024.

AI-powered natural language generation tools offer for content creation

Introduction

In today's fast-paced digital world, content creation is a crucial aspect of any successful marketing strategy. As the demand for high-quality, engaging content grows, businesses are turning to AI-powered natural language generation (NLG) tools to meet their needs.
This article explores the various advantages that NLG tools offer for content creation, from enhanced productivity to improved SEO performance.

Understanding AI-Powered Natural Language Generation (NLG)

Natural Language Generation (NLG) is a subfield of artificial intelligence that focuses on generating human-like text from structured data. NLG tools use advanced algorithms and machine learning models to analyze data and produce coherent, contextually relevant content. These tools can generate everything from simple reports and summaries to complex articles and creative writing.

How NLG Works

NLG tools work by first analyzing a dataset and identifying key patterns and relationships within the data. Once the analysis is complete, the tool uses predefined templates and linguistic rules to generate text that conveys the information in a clear and natural manner. The generated content is then refined through multiple iterations to ensure accuracy and coherence.

Key Benefits of NLG Tools for Content Creation

Enhanced Productivity

One of the primary advantages of NLG tools is their ability to significantly enhance productivity. By automating the content creation process, these tools allow writers and marketers to focus on more strategic tasks, such as brainstorming new ideas and refining their content strategy. NLG tools can generate large volumes of content in a fraction of the time it would take a human writer, making it easier to keep up with the ever-growing demand for fresh content.

Consistent and High-Quality Content

Consistency is key when it comes to content creation, and NLG tools excel in this area. These tools ensure that the generated content adheres to predefined guidelines and maintains a consistent tone and style throughout. This is particularly beneficial for businesses with multiple content creators, as it helps maintain a unified brand voice across all channels. Additionally, NLG tools can produce high-quality content that is free from grammatical errors and inconsistencies, further enhancing the overall credibility of the content.

Personalization at Scale

Personalization is a powerful tool for engaging audiences and building brand loyalty. However, creating personalized content for a large audience can be a daunting task. NLG tools can automate the personalization process by generating tailored content for different segments of an audience based on their preferences, behaviors, and demographics. This allows businesses to deliver more relevant and engaging content to their audience, ultimately driving better results.

Speed and Efficiency

In the fast-paced digital landscape, speed is of the essence. NLG tools can generate content quickly and efficiently, allowing businesses to respond to market trends and customer needs in real time. This agility is particularly valuable for industries that require timely content updates, such as news media, financial services, and e-commerce.

Cost-Effectiveness

Hiring a team of skilled writers can be expensive, especially for businesses that require a high volume of content. NLG tools offer a cost-effective alternative by automating the content creation process and reducing the need for large writing teams. This can result in significant cost savings while still maintaining high-quality content output.

Multilingual Content Creation

Expanding into new markets often requires creating content in multiple languages, which can be a challenging and time-consuming task. NLG tools can generate content in various languages, making it easier for businesses to reach a global audience. This capability not only saves time and resources but also ensures that the content is culturally relevant and accurately translated.

Improved SEO Performance

Search engine optimization (SEO) is a critical component of any content strategy. NLG tools can help improve SEO performance by generating keyword-rich content that is optimized for search engines. These tools can analyze search trends and incorporate relevant keywords and phrases into the content, increasing its visibility and driving more organic traffic to the website.

Real-World Applications of NLG in Content Creation

NLG tools are being used across various industries to streamline content creation and enhance efficiency. Some common applications include:

• News Media: Generating news articles, summaries, and reports based on real-time data and events.
• Financial Services: Creating financial reports, market analysis, and investment summaries.
• E-commerce: Producing product descriptions, reviews, and personalized recommendations.
• Healthcare: Writing patient reports, medical summaries, and research articles.

Case Studies

The Associated Press

The Associated Press (AP) has been using NLG tools to automate the creation of earnings reports for several years. By leveraging NLG, AP has been able to increase the volume of reports it produces while maintaining high accuracy and consistency. This has freed up its journalists to focus on more in-depth reporting and analysis.

eBay

eBay uses NLG tools to generate product descriptions for its vast inventory. By automating this process, eBay ensures that all product descriptions are consistent, accurate, and optimized for search engines. This has led to improved user experience and increased sales.

Challenges and Limitations of NLG Tools

While NLG tools offer numerous benefits, they also come with some challenges and limitations:

• Data Quality: The accuracy and quality of the generated content depend on the quality of the input data. Poor-quality data can lead to inaccurate or irrelevant content.
• Creativity: NLG tools are excellent at generating factual and structured content, but they may struggle with creative writing and nuanced storytelling.
• Integration: Integrating NLG tools with existing content management systems and workflows can be complex and require technical expertise.

Future Trends in NLG and Content Creation

The future of NLG in content creation looks promising, with advancements in AI and machine learning driving continuous improvements.
Some emerging trends include:

• Improved Creativity: As AI models become more sophisticated, NLG tools will be better equipped to handle creative writing tasks and generate more engaging and original content.
• Contextual Understanding: Future NLG tools will have a deeper understanding of context, allowing them to produce more relevant and contextually accurate content.
• Voice and Conversational AI: Integration with voice assistants and conversational AI will enable NLG tools to generate natural and interactive content for various applications, including chatbots and virtual assistants.

Conclusion

AI-powered natural language generation tools offer numerous advantages for content creation, from enhanced productivity and consistency to improved personalization and SEO performance. While there are challenges to overcome, the benefits of using NLG tools far outweigh the limitations. As technology continues to evolve, NLG tools will play an increasingly important role in helping businesses create high-quality, engaging content at scale.

Are you looking between Northwest Registered Agent and ZenBusiness for your LLC formation?
I’ve recently had a go, and wading through the websites trying to compare is a bit of a pain.
And then most of the online reviews are so bias one way or the other, so it’s hard to get a really good impression.
So, I’ve basically written up the research that I did, and hopefully this will help you too…

The LLC Package: What do you get?

Both services have a basic package, so what else do you get besides the actual Articles of Organization filing with the state? (Which in both cases is an added expense on top of the formation service).
Northwest Registered Agent
The basic package includes:

• one year of free Registered Agent service
• free Annual Report reminders service
• an Operating Agreement template
• a bank account resolution
• LLC Membership Certificates
• and a free trial of VoIP phone service.

ZenBusiness
The basic package (called “Starter”) includes:

• one year of free Registered Agent services
• one free year of Worry Free Compliance Service
• an Operating Agreement template
• an Accounting Consultation
• and a Google Ads credit match.

My Opinion on the LLC Packages

Northwest Registered Agent keeps it refreshingly simple. No fussing over different packages here. Just one flat price, plus state fees, and you're good to go.
You won't find any add-ons that increase the cost without you knowing why either.
They're flexible too. Pay monthly instead of all at once? Yep, they're cool with that. Plus, they throw in an EIN number for your business for free if you opt for monthly payments.
Oh, and you still get all the other goodies like an Operating Agreement and a year of Registered Agent service.
Now, onto ZenBusiness. They've got the Starter, the Pro, and the Premium packages.
The Starter is clearly fantastic at $0 (plus state fee), but watch out for the annual compliance service that could sneak up on you with the $119 a year price tag.
They also add in their Registered Agent service, which renews at $199 annually.
The Pro package? Well, it's got a few extras and expedited filing, but $199 might be a stretch. And as for the Premium, unless web hosting is your jam, the extra $100 just doesn't seem worth it.
Northwest Registered Agent won it on this front. It's transparent one off payment means you know what you're in for. I just prefer the clarity.

Turnaround Time

Northwest Registered Agent prides itself on being fast. They'll process your order within just a few days
One of its offices may even ring/email to dot the i's and cross the t's, but that's just to make sure everything's tip-top.
And if you're in a real hurry, expedited filing options are available.
Now, onto ZenBusiness. They're no slouches either, boasting a 2-day turnaround time to get your docs to the state.
And if you're paying more for the Pro or Premium packages, they'll fast-track your paperwork straight to the state.
In all honest, from the online reviews and the services they both offer, it is pretty much a draw on this one.

Customer Service

Next up, customer service.
Okay, this is where I am going to be biased, because (spoiler alert) Northwest is the service I eventually opted for.
I have to say, the support really was fantastic.
Their reps were spot on with the information I needed, (I have a tendency to double check everything in order to make sure it's done correctly), providing extra details and advice beyond what I was requesting.
I basically can't rate them higher in this regard.
That being said, ZenBusiness holds its own in the customer service arena, with reliable support via phone or online chat.
I checked a lot of the reviews in my research as the availability of customer service is really important to me, and generally the feedback is high.
(From what I can see, however, they generally stick to the script and don't venture into the realm of offering extra guidance - I get the feeling Northwest are just more "bespoke" in this way).
Because it comes down to a very positive personal experience; Northwest Registered Agent wins this one.

Optional (or Free) Extras

Northwest Registered Agent throws in some great bonuses that may sway your decision toward them.
They offer a free trial with a VoIP phone service, meaning you can ditch the extra phone bills and keep your business connected.
They also provide some bonuses for those starting an e-commerce business, (these change so i won't list them here).
The phone service is only $9 a month after the trial should you opt for it.
Now, onto ZenBusiness. The Google Ads credit is a nice touch. But that's on the higher priced packages.
There is also the business documents service or virtual office offerings; but these didn't interest me. And "accounting consultation"... these extras all seemed part of the ZenBusiness upselling strategy if you ask me.
The winner here is Northwest Registered Agent. They provide some useful extras, all available for you to test out without reaching into your pocket.

Registered Agent Services

Northwest Registered Agent provides a great deal at $125 per year.
They strategically position their offices to save you cash on pesky publication requirements and state fees.
Plus, they have some excellent privacy protection, (they make a really big deal of it in terms of their USP).
Use their address on state filings to keep your personal information private and at no extra charge. This will limit spam mail while increasing peace of mind.
Personally, I loved this addition to the LLC package and after my research was a big reason I opted for them.
ZenBusiness fails a bit here with the $199 per year price tag for their Registered Agent service.
There is a "Complete Coverage," service where they'll handle your LLC's Annual Report filing too, so this might be beneficial to some people.
This Worry-Free Compliance comes with the Pro or Premium LLC package.
Additionally, both Northwest and ZenBusiness offer the same service when it comes to mail handling.
They will both scan and upload legal mail to your dashboard for easy access.
The clear winner here for me is Northwest Registered.
With the budget friendly registered agent service and office placement for lower priced fees, you can't really go wrong.

Website and User Experience

Last but not least, website and user experience.
Northwest's website is calm, focused, and devoid of unnecessary distractions. There is no hard sell going on here, which I liked.
Their user dashboard is really clear too. Its intuitive to use and keeps you informed throughout. A big thumbs up for this.
ZenBusiness, also nails it when it comes to user experience.
Their website is probably even more polished than Northwests, and it guides you through the process well.
But watch out for those upsells; it is clear the site is designed to make the sale.
From what I have seen of the user dashboard, ZenBusiness have a really good product too.
And the winner? Here it seems to be a tie! Both companies boast stellar website design and user experience, making things easy for the customer.

Final Words

If you've been keeping count, Northwest Registered Agent comes out on top in the research that I did.
Overall, they're experts in their field, focusing on LLC formation and registered agent services without bombarding you with confusing options.
The LLC formation process was nice and easy, and that extra bonus of increased privacy feels vital.
That being said, ZenBusiness is clearly still a popular choice.
Their customer service is great, and they offer everything you need to start your LLC.
My advice is just to be wary of those few upsells.
Subscription services starting out free but morphing into high annual costs is something you will want to avoid.
(For full disclosure, links to both services in this article are affiliate, but this will not effect the price you pay).

From 0 to 100 million+ impressions, 800k+ users, and $50k MRR, in a span of 6 months.
Declan and Derrick were undergrads at UC Berkeley and loved building side projects — Avo Alaram, YouUp, and Steady Soles to name a few.
One of their friends suggested they to focus on a single project and they chose JotBot — an AI essay generator that used writing samples to write like you which they built in a week.
Due to the nature and target Audience of the project, the most obvious marketing channel to go with is Titkok and they did the same. Committed to posting 6–10 short-form videos, every single day, on 3 platforms (Reels, TikTok, Shorts), advertising our product, but nothing worked.
After a lot of failed short-form content, they had a fun idea to get a super long and specific URL like ‘idontwanttodomyessay .com‘ and redirect it to their site, and it worked like a charm.
Here are some of their Tiktok templates (3.2m, 10m, 8.9m) which worked for them, they remade it, it worked again and even other products copied it and it worked for them too (you can use them too).
This pushed them to $25k MRR, but they didn’t want to look like a cheating app that students used and forgot about. Recently they pivoted again to a Research copilot and again with the same set of template with some changes pushing the MRR to $50k.
TikTok is a great marketing channel for B2C products, Trendy and Shareable Products. In the Umax story that we shared last week ($6m ARR), Tiktok was one of their main marketing channel too.

I had an “unbiased, anonymous” exit interview today with a Hr consultant after resigning from a terrible job with loads of harassment from my boss. I searched him on LinkedIn and he used to work with the CEO…
He asked the most inappropriate questions. I know HR are slimy and never to trust but far out the audacity!! He asked if I had I ever experienced mental health before… did I get another job, he brought up my inbox sent items being cleared when they got access… clearly not an exit interview but a line of questioning to cover their asses because I have a 100% legit work cover claim and they are beside themselves.
I found a free template on a government site with the majority of his remaining questions in the same order as the free template. Not sure he was even a real Hr consultant!?
God people suck sometimes.
