Telarus Annual Educational Conference Celebrates the Rise of the Technology Advisor

Grapevine, TX, August 04, 2023 — Over 1,500 technology advisors, suppliers, channel leaders, and media gathered in Grapevine, Texas, for the 11th Annual Telarus Partner Summit July 31 – Aug 2. This year’s event included over 40 education sessions covering the latest advanced technology trends, sales strategies, and demonstrations from industry leaders and suppliers across CX, cybersecurity, cloud, AI, IOT, and more. Telarus also unveiled new tools that will make it easier for technology advisors to educate and sell best-fit solutions to their customers, streamline their operations, and get the information they need faster.

Over 40 Education Sessions: Technology advisors benefited from infinite opportunities to engage in exclusive content via 43 break-out sessions, deep-dive supplier discussion panels, and several mainstage sessions and fireside chats guided by industry experts across new and emerging technologies.

5K Fun Run and Charity Spotlight: The Summit’s annual 5K charity run attracted a record-breaking 300 registrants this year, all lacing up their sneakers and braving the Texas summer heat to raise money for our spotlighted charity, DFW Canines for Veterans. Additional donations from attendees raised over $20,000 in support of DFW Canines for Veterans.

Mark your calendars for the 2024 Telarus Partner Summit, August 6 – 8, 2024, at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville, Tennessee.

Fort Lauderdale, FL, August 04, 2023 — Turnkey Capital (TKCI), today announced the Company has signed an asset purchase agreement with Aedan Looking Glass Inc, whereby TKCI will acquire 100% of the Adaptive Intelligence technology assets of ALG Intelligence at the initial closing of the transaction.

With this acquisition, Turnkey Capital intends to change its name as appropriate and will merge all assets acquired into a new wholly owned subsidiary, TYR Intelligence.

TYR Intelligence’s management team led by Jason Ellis, its Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Eric Fitzgerald – Chief Scientist, Gary Griffes – CFO and President, Sharon Wrice – Deputy CFO & Secretary, Dawnte Bailey, – COO & CSO Compliance, Kurt Huwig -Board Member, Andreas Zill- Board Member, Conor Faley – Shareholder Executive Liaison, and Russell Ward – Investor Relations will assume leadership of Turnkey Capital.

Upon initial closing, TKCI will also make changes to the Company’s Board of Directors with the addition of new members who will be appointed at a later date.

Overview of TYR Intelligence
TYR Intelligence is focused on the development and deployment of their cutting-edge Adaptive Intelligence powered security solutions and educational technologies. With a mission to provide Adaptive Intelligence in all areas of life, TYR Intelligence is dedicated to safeguarding America’s national security and protecting consumers worldwide.

Under the leadership of CEO Jason Ellis, TYR Intelligence is looking to revolutionize the security landscape with its Adaptive Intelligence-powered Aedan Security platform. The Company’s Artificial Intelligence Security Platform leverages behavioral science, pattern detection, and neural network technologies to create tailored solutions for each user, ensuring unparalleled security experiences across various devices and applications.

TYR’s first product is the Aedan Security application, a unique Adaptive Intelligent powered security solution designed to protect data, defend privacy, optimize performance of the user’s devices. The application is fully developed and was initially launched on Android Mobile Devices. TYR Intelligence has recently focused on upgrading the application with a more refined User Interface and enhanced features, with plans to relaunch this new version on both Android and iOS Devices in the coming months. With an Aedan Security Adaptive Intelligence Subscription, users will gain access to the full suite of Aedan platform’s capabilities.

Highlights of the Aedan Security Application
Malicious Monitoring: This engine monitors the behavior of applications which may be compromised by code injections and/or port service vulnerabilities which anti-virus scanners may ignore. The virus or potential threat becomes suspended, removed, and blocked from future local service activities.

Aedan Firewall: An advanced rule system implementing a modified Virtual Private Network protocol of the local device to manage port traffic internally without effecting external network configurations. The firewall policies are preconfigured to prevent network intrusion. Suspicious network activities are managed by the artificial intelligence engine, which implements a sophisticated form of pattern detection to identify potential risks in real-time.

Memory Optimization: When background services and applications which aren’t currently used by the user are consuming system resources, Aedan Security temporarily suspends and clears the unnecessary service activities which populate the Random Access Memory, thus freeing up more resources for what matters.

Residual Junk: Aedan Security may clear out miscellaneous junk files which occupy local storage and serve no purpose. The user may initiate an on-demand cleanup or allow the Adaptive Intelligence engine to automate this function periodically when the device appears to be under-performing.

Expanding TYR Intelligence Offerings
After the rollout of the Aedan Security application, TYR Intelligence plans to leverage the Aedan Adaptive Intelligence platform to offer solutions for Drone Defense and the Education sector.

A key component of TYR Intelligence’s offerings roadmap is Drone Defense, with advanced drone-based defense systems called Huginn and Muninn, empowered by the Operative Defense Intelligence Network (O.D.I.N.). These autonomous systems provide crucial threat identification, surveillance, signals intelligence, and situational awareness in civilian, military, and law enforcement operations, enhancing overall security measures.

Additionally, TYR Intelligence plans to introduce a transformative approach to education through Mimir and Valhalla, advanced teaching tools interfaced by EEG and powered by Adaptive Intelligence. These innovative platforms enable the curriculum to adapt to students, creating personalized learning experiences that empower teachers and provide students with a comprehensive edge in the classroom.

“We are excited to introduce our groundbreaking Adaptive Intelligence solutions to the global market,” said Jason Ellis, CEO of TYR Intelligence. “With our cutting-edge technologies and commitment to delivering the most superior security and education tools, we are revolutionizing the landscape of intelligence solutions, empowering users and organizations alike.”

New Principled Technologies Reports Demonstrate the Benefit of Choosing HP G10 Notebook PCs to Enable Remote and Hybrid Work

Durham, NC, August 04, 2023 — Users who are constantly on the go need a laptop that can deliver both the battery life to complete their workday and performance that won’t slow them down. But with many strong devices with high-performing processors on the market, it can be difficult to know which laptop would be the best fit for remote and hybrid users.

Comparing two HP laptops against two competing laptops, PT used benchmarks to measure device performance while plugged in and unplugged. They also conducted battery life, thermal, and acoustic testing. The first comparison—between the HP EliteBook 645 G10 Notebook PC and the Dell Latitude 5440 laptop—demonstrated that the EliteBook 645 G10 Notebook PC delivered more battery life and ran cooler and quieter. The second comparison—between the HP ProBook 445 G10 Notebook PC and the Dell Latitude 3440 laptop—showed that the HP ProBook 445 Notebook PC achieved higher scores on several benchmarks without overheating. Plus, compared to the Dell systems, both HP systems delivered more consistent performance when going from AC to DC power.

According to the report highlighting the EliteBook 645, “When going from plugged-in to unplugged, an HP EliteBook 645 G10 Notebook PC powered by an AMD Ryzen 7 7730U processor delivered more consistent performance than a Dell Latitude 5440 laptop powered by an Intel Core i7-1355U processor. Battery life tests indicate that the HP EliteBook 645 G10 Notebook PC powered by an AMD Ryzen 7 7730U processor could deliver longer battery life and greater system efficiency while still achieving strong performance. Additionally, while running a CPU-intensive Cinebench R23 workload, the underside of the HP EliteBook 645 G10 Notebook PC powered by an AMD Ryzen 7 7730U processor ran 18°F cooler and was noticeably quieter than the Dell Latitude 5440 laptop powered by an Intel Core i7-1355U processor.”

Artificial Intelligence (AI) will be selling cars by 2025

Stockholm, 3 August 2023 – It’s only a matter of time before artificial intelligence (AI) is selling cars as effectively as a human salesperson, and could happen as soon as 2025, says Phyron CEO Johan Sundstrand. The speed at which self-learning software is developing and being embraced by retailers means that a fully competent AI-powered sales bot is as close as 18 months away.

This prediction comes at a time when Phyron, Swedish video tech pioneers, has made a massive leap with its own AI-powered software, by adding bespoke, fully automated voiceover to its studio quality on-brand AI videos. The voiceover functionality is initially available in over 22 languages with options for four male and four female voices in each language. Every characteristic of the voiceover can be adjusted, including the pitch, tone, speed, voice equalizer and the music gain.

Phyron CEO and co-founder Johan Sundstrand commented: “We know the automotive retail market is more competitive now than ever before. In this environment, anything that gives your business a competitive edge and increases efficiency should be welcomed.  AI-powered videos have proven to sell cars 3 to 5 days faster, and the addition of AI-powered voiceover will only increase impact and efficiency.

“It’s only a matter of time before the technology advances to a point where the likes of ChatGPT can get very close to how a salesperson sells cars offline. We think this could be as soon as 2025 based on the current speed of AI development and adoption,” added Sundstrand.

Dealers looking to sell more vehicles, faster can leverage the power of AI and take full control of the custom templates at a customer, campaign or product level. Every variable in the data feed can be utilized to make an engaging voiceover to accompany the video including the intro, outros, the “why us” and the crucial call-to-action sections. Generative AI utilizing Phyron’s own Large Language Model (similar to GPT-4 software) has been specially trained and fine-tuned for the automotive retail sector to produce bespoke manuscripts on a vehicle’s key attributes. The AI can produce the voiceover from existing car ads, marketplace, and technical data. It works with any input, from 5 to 5000 words and can write the manuscript from the OEM copy, the dealers’ website or predefined templates.

How Phyron’s AI video works

Phyron’s innovative video and AI technology is the world’s first software solution for automated video production and distribution for the global automotive industry. The unique AI software and its algorithms enable Phyron to create videos for car advertisements which can be used on OEM brand or retailer websites, as well as classifieds, across social media channels and targeted email distribution. Not only do automated videos save retailers huge amounts of time and money on video production, especially as there is no need for a salesperson to video any cars on site or prepare a script of key features, they ensure premium quality films of every single car in a firm’s inventory has an engaging video ad attached to it in minutes.

The innovative process works by Phyron using a data feed from a retailer or car brand, including at least three still images and key product details. The AI then identifies the key properties in the images, including various shot angles, interior elements and exterior highlights, and then strips out the backgrounds and replaces them with a neutral one. The unique software then adds special effects, shadows and overlays the desired product specifics and any customer offers on the relevant images, including price and retailer dealer branding.

Thanks to state-of-the-art cloud computing, Phyron can process an unlimited number of videos concurrently, taking about 10 minutes to render them all, posting them live on a single retailer or classified online auction site, or scale them across an entire network if needed. If a detail changes, such as price, or promotion, the data feed updates and the video is re-rendered automatically as part of the small video fee.

The team has been working with car retailers and partners since 2019 and now counts over 1,500 customers across Europe equating to 100,000 cars currently carrying a Phyron video in the ads. Since January 2021, its customers’ car videos were viewed more than 250 million times and the firm has also expanded into the North American market.

How urbanization has transformed real estate

India is experiencing rapid urban transformation with people increasingly moving to urban areas and cities over the last few years. This trend will continue into the future too with the UN predicting that the country will see an addition of over 400 million people to the population by 2050, making it one of the fastest urbanizing countries in the world. The urban population in India is also expected to account for over 60% of the country’s GDP by 2030, indicating that the migration from rural to urban will be very significant. According to a report, the country’s residential sector is expected to reach a market size of $1 trillion by 2030 driven by rising incomes and urbanization. Another report states that India needs to invest $4.5 trillion in infrastructure by 2040 to keep pace with urbanization. With more people coming into cities, demand for homes and residential real estate will continue to rise. Hence, it is important to understand the impact of urbanization on real estate.

Shift Towards Community-Based Living

The concept of gated communities and integrated townships is gaining popularity and this trend is further fuelled by the desire to upgrade lifestyles. People will work and reside in spaces that are future forward, have adequate connectivity, offer state of the art amenities and provide open green spaces. Other key factors include, access to social infrastructure like schools, colleges, hospitals, banking, hyper-markets and others that makes life comfortable productive and convenient.

The rise of Smart cities

A very significant change that is occurring is the rise of smart cities. These cities are designed to be technologically advanced and environmentally sustainable. The government’s policy on smart cities has been curated with the aim to transform over 100 cities into smart cities with the vision of making available better infrastructure, housing and improved services to residents of the city. Southern India is one among the major regions where this policy is being implemented.

The impact of digitalization

Real estate is also being impacted by digitalization directly and cities have transformed into digital hubs bolstering the process of urbanization. We live in a time of digital technologies like virtual reality, 3D printing, and drones that are being used to design, construct, and market properties. Digital marketing has made it easier for buyers and sellers to connect, while software has enabled efficient management of properties.

Changes in the choice of real estate

Changes in the type of real estate development are also gaining popularity and the demand for high-end housing is high, particularly in locations where conditions are positive for real estate. People are now more than ever willing to upgrade their lifestyle and are looking for homes that are multifunctional and modern. Buyers are seeking greater access to amenities and facilities within their living community, proximity to social infrastructure and connectivity. Commercial real estate, particularly, co-working spaces are gaining popularity too as they offer flexible options for young professionals and entrepreneurs. While residential real estate is important, other classes of real estate too are growing.

Economic and spatial urbanization

The gradual effect of population urbanization and the effect of economic urbanization have made the greatest contribution to the real estate industry. The increase in per capita income levels and disposable income is the real reason for the increase in real estate demand. So, urbanization which leads to greater economic growth has a positive impact on real estate which has resulted in an increase in investment in the sector.

Focus on Sustainability

The focus on sustainability has become crucial in the real estate sector as higher population densities lead to greater pressure on the environment. Hence, real estate companies are now more conscious of their impact on the environment and are taking steps to build eco-friendly and energy-efficient buildings. This not only helps in conserving the environment but also reduces the cost of maintenance and operation.

In conclusion, it can be said that more than half of the world’s population currently live in urban areas which has led to high growth of residential real estate. By 2050, the urban percentage of population is expected to rise by 2.5 billion and this means the scale of demand would be high for residential estate over the next two decades. There is a need for innovative solutions to address the challenges that come with the demand. These solutions should be sustainable and accessible, ensuring inclusive growth and benefits to all citizens.
