Haast.io wins PitchLIVE with AI that automates marketing compliance in insurance
Haast.io won PitchLIVE at February’s Australian InsurtechLIVE24 conference. Co-founder Kunal Vankadara explained a key challenge for insurance, being a highly regulated industry, is to manage digital marketing compliance risk. Abiding by all the rules is not a "set and forget" exercise and manual reviews are not efficient over the long-term.  Haast.io’s solution uses AI to enable insurers (and others) to find and resolve brand and legal compliance issues, across their entire online presence. The technology saves time, improves productivity and frees up valuable resources by automating the review of marketing assets before and after they go live. More information: https://www.haast.io/

For Dr. Seuss Day, March 2nd, let's prompt children leveraging the use of AI!
Teaching at a creativity and excellence institute, I was told: 'No more coloring pages. Give them open-ended prompts.' I loved transdisciplinary prompts weaving art, nature, science and environment. To celebrate the birthday of my greatest inspiration, Dr. Seuss, let's Ignite children's curiosity with fresh energizing verse and art that celebrates imagination .Then prompt students to learn about the ideas they drew on. We will gain insight into their inner world, provide social emotional tips, and build self-efficacy. Children and youth can always leverage their ideas by AI, yet the ideas will still be theirs to take pride in.

Vintage Shorts – a community film festival in rural Victoria
Victorian town Maldon, renowned for its historical charm, introduces Vintage Shorts in 2024. This innovative festival extends a local and global invitation to filmmakers. It encourages them to delve into the essence of the old or vintage, to uncover and portray the inherent beauty in aged objects, homes, places, and individuals. Organiser Paul Kooperman said it's the festival is “About pening our eyes to the beauty, wisdom, history, and experience that comes with age, our wrinkles marking where our smiles have been."  An early submission – The Op Shop directed by Lee Rogers – is available to watch online.https://www.vintageshorts.net/submissions
