I learned about Mosaic Foods via a Google Ad 🤷🏾‍♀️..  Mosaic Foods is a plant based meal delivery program which is based here in Brooklyn, NY.  Mosaic was founded by two longtime friends who are on a simple mission: To Put Good Food on Every Table.  The meals truly are made of simply, easily pronounced ingredients from fruits, vegetables and grains.  Mosaic customers have the option to receive weekly, bi-weekly or monthly deliveries of plant based meals.  Customers can select from approximately 40 selections: oat bowls, veggie bowls and soups.

Android Sophia Wants to Help the Environment

Sophia is a top selling artist, science lecturer and personality.  She creates NFT (non-fungible token) artwork and was recently featured in a Sotheby’s art auction.  The piece entitled, “Sophia Instantiation” sold for 700k.  The piece included a painted self portrait of Sophia and a 12 second mp4 showing how the art work evolved.  The artwork was a collaboration between artist, Andrea Bonaceto and Sophia. The intention of the collaboration was to “explore the possibility for humans and robots to collaborate not only on operational tasks but also on creative efforts.”   I’m sure we’re all wondering how robot Sophia spent her share of the moolah?  It seems these days that Sophia is worried less about money and more focused on her talents and helping the environment.     Sophia was created by Hong Kong based robotics tech company, Hanson Robotics.  Sophia is run using advanced AI (artificial intelligence)...
