#transaction workflow

[carltonlassie]

Guys did you know the newest AI hype train is something called Agentic AI and it just means that we now have systems where AI can be an agent, a colleague, a true assistant in that given a goal to achieve, it can make decisions and execute it on your behalf. It's different from other AI systems in that it doesn't just perform narrowly defined and specific commands; it is goal oriented and will chase the outcome by itself based on a decision matrix and various inputs. So self-driving cars are an example of Agentic AI because given a goal of taking a passenger to the destination, it needs to make several decisions such as mapping the route, sensing the surroundings and reacting to the changing input, and execute its decisions to achieve the goal. Other Agentic systems are being built to be your errand boy/personal valet essentially - you could tell an agent to figure out how much you owe a contractor and pay him on your behalf. If you let the AI systems access your emails, calendar, and BANK ACCOUNT. It'll take care of it for you so you can direct your attention to better things. And I'm just like um. That's. Something.

Hey! Just wondering if you have any advice for advertising/getting commissions? I just opened mine for the first time and I’m kinda just winging it <3

make a pinned post on your blog that links to price/info/rules page! you can either host your commissions on kofi, or just do them via messaging and your preferred choice of online transaction.

price your art fairly but don't undercharge! know your art's worth and time it takes to make it.

have consistent communication with the person who commissioned you, give them updates, a heads up, etc.

keep a steady workflow. and also, breaks matter. you can do personal art and life stuff in between work art.

limit yourself on the amount of commissions you take at a time. you can do 2, 3, 10 at a time, but know when to stop so you don't overwork yourself.

don't be afraid to turn someone down if the topic does not interest or has a topic you don't wish to draw. there's plenty of artists out there who will do it for you.

make sure the person can fufill their payment before starting or handing over their commission. I do my payments upfront as a starting point for me.

always try to announce when your comms are open! make a post about it and say how many you're able to take in.

i suggest using kofi as it lets you keep track of your commissions, and can even 'mark as done' so you know which ones to work on.

hope this helps <3

In the moment, you just knew; your feelings for him had never faded away.

It was as if the currents of time had kept your feelings for him hidden, carefully tucked away in a secret chamber of your heart. They lay dormant, patiently biding their time, while you busied yourself with the distractions of life after graduation. But the second you caught a glimpse of his aquamarine eyes, it was as if a dam had burst, unleashing a torrent of long-suppressed emotions that flooded your being.

Your friendship with Azul had been forged in an unexpected twist of fate, woven together by trust and mutual benefit. It all began when Jade fell ill after consuming a poisonous mushroom he had foraged on one of his hikes. In a moment of urgency, Azul found himself desperately in need of a temporary replacement.

At the time, the two of you were merely acquaintances, barely exchanging more than a few polite words. However, when Azul approached you knowing you had the skills to alleviate his mountains of paperwork, which he had seen from Crowley’s increasing spare time, you agreed to stand in for Jade as long as he would pay you handsomely.

Looking back, you’re so glad you agreed to help, and even more glad he had offered you the position.  

As you took on the role of Azul's secretary, you discovered a harmonious synergy between your skills and his needs. Your efficiency and attention to detail complemented his demanding work style, creating a seamless workflow that allowed him to navigate his responsibilities with ease. It was a delicate dance, a symphony of coordination and cooperation.

But amidst the professional arrangement, something unexpected unfolded. Beneath the facade of business transactions and financial arrangements, you soon found yourself enamoured with Azul's charismatic charm and intellect, his genuine appreciation for your support and efforts. Really, how could you not? You loved how he seemed so proud to others, yet he would show such vulnerable sides of himself when Floyd would push his limits. You loved the way his face would soften, the hint of a subtle, soft smile that graced his lips when you brewed his favourite tea just right. The genuine gratitude in his eyes as he whispered a heartfelt "thanks" echoed in your mind, warming your heart. And you loved how even after Jade recovered, he noticed how overworked and weary you were, the dark circles under your eyes deepening, and he let you rest on the couch in his office, his trench coat acting as a comforting blanket that smelled of him.  Time slipped away as you slept, the entire duration of the restaurant's bustling hours, yet he remained faithfully by your side to watch over you.

Oh, you loved him, without a doubt.

But you were also a coward.

You wished so dearly to express your feelings to him, to summon the courage and hope against hope that he might, just maybe, reciprocate your affections even just a little bit. But the sheer intensity of your emotions weighed upon your heart, casting shadows of doubt and uncertainty. Should you confess the depths of your emotions now, or would it unravel the delicate threads of the beautiful friendship you had painstakingly woven together?

In the end, fear had won the battle. The fear of rejection, of irrevocably altering the dynamics that had kept you so close. And so, after graduation, life took you on separate paths, causing you to drift apart, your feelings fading away into nothing but a fond memory of your school days.

Until now, that is.

Azul sits across the table from you, a vision of charisma and charm. His presence alone fills the restaurant with an undeniable magnetism. The atmosphere crackles with a sense of anticipation, mingled with a tinge of bittersweet nostalgia. The twins, Floyd and Jade, were supposed to join you both for this reunion lunch, but Floyd had conveniently fallen ill, and Jade stayed behind to look after him. It's as if fate has conspired to create this moment, this opportune time for the two of you to reconnect.

As you gaze at Azul, you can't help but notice how he incredibly handsome he is, even more so having matured over the years. His curly silver hair delicately frames his face, adding a touch of sophistication to his appearance. His cool blue eyes shimmer with a hint of shyness and fondness, drawing you deeper into his gaze.

Lost in conversation and the delectable flavours of the meal, your attention is suddenly drawn to Azul's tender gesture. His hand reaches out, moving with graceful precision, as he gently tucks a stray strand of hair behind your ear, ensuring it stays clear of the food. The touch is tender and intimate, a subtle act of care that leaves you breathless. In that fleeting moment, a surge of warmth courses through your veins, igniting a flutter of butterflies in the depths of your stomach.

But before you can fully savour the intensity of the moment, Azul's voice breaks through, laced with a hint of apology and concern. "Oh... sorry..." he mumbles. His hand retreats, as if realising the potential discomfort he may have caused. The fleeting touch is gone, but its impact remains as you feel your cheeks warm at his actions.

Oh, you're still hopelessly in love with Azul, just as you have always been.

A rush of emotions floods your being, creating a whirlwind of conflicting desires. You yearn to tell him how his touch ignited a flame within you, how it awakened feelings that have long been buried beneath the surface. But fear and uncertainty hold you captive, trapping the words within the depths of your heart.

"No, Azul," you say softly, summoning the courage that lies within, offering him a reassuring smile. "You didn't make me uncomfortable. Quite the opposite, actually."

His eyes widen in surprise, as if a weight has been lifted from his shoulders. A flicker of relief dances in his gaze, mingling with a renewed spark of hope.

"Oh... I'm glad then," he answers, his lips twitching in a manner that you know is his attempt to hide his embarrassment. A soft blush tints his cheeks, adding a touch of warmth to his already captivating features.

You feel the tension between you easing, and a sense of comfort settling in the air. The nervousness that had consumed the space between you dissipates, making room for a new energy, an anticipation of what lies ahead.

"Azul, you mentioned you're in need of a new secretary, right?" you inquire, seizing the opportunity to steer the conversation towards the unspoken desires that have silently entwined your hearts.

He nods, his brows furrowing slightly as he tries to comprehend the direction of the conversation. The corner of his lips quirks up in a curious smile, silently urging you to continue.

"Well," you pause, your voice soft but filled with determination, "do you think I'd be fit for the job?"

The room seems to hold its breath, waiting for Azul's response. His gaze lingers on you, his eyes searching your face for any hint of jest or uncertainty. There is a moment of silence, pregnant with anticipation, as the weight of your words settles between you.

A gentle smile graces Azul's lips, radiating warmth and affection. The flush on his cheeks deepens, adding to his irresistible charm. In that instant, he becomes the epitome of loveliness, a sight that captivates your heart and steals your breath away. His vulnerability, displayed in the gentle quiver of his lips, only makes you appreciate him more deeply.

Azul coughed gently as he covers his mouth, an attempt to regain composure and gather his thoughts. His gaze briefly averts, the vulnerability replaced by a sense of composed professionalism. His words stumble out, laced with a touch of awkwardness, but beneath it all, his true intentions shine through.

"W-well, obviously we're going to go through the proper procedure and an interview…" he stammers, the uncertainty in his voice betraying his attempt at maintaining a façade of formality.

But then, Azul's hand finds yours, his fingers intertwining with yours. The touch is delicate yet electric, sending a jolt of warmth coursing through your veins. The colours intensify, the air brimming with an electric energy that crackles between you. And when he speaks, his voice becomes a soothing melody, a sound that resonates within the depths of your soul, a melody you long to hear every day.

"But Angelfish," he says, his voice a tender caress that wraps around your heart, "you would not only be fit for the job, but you would bring a light to my days that no other secretary ever could. I can think of no better person than you."

His words penetrate the barriers you've built around your heart, shattering the doubts and fears that have plagued you for so long. A surge of joy and relief washes over you, manifesting as a bright smile that graces your face. Your eyebrows furrow shyly, a remnant of your school days, as if you're transported back to that time when everything was new and uncertain. But this time, there is no more running away, no more holding back.

This time, you would surely become his.

what if santi’s match were a coworker’s obsession.. ?

(as in, reader was coworker’s obsession before santi got to meet her) (bonus points if said coworker is belo)

Well, that kind of depends on who you put him up against, in all honesty.

A match is a match, Santi definitely has the advantage of having you lusting for him and generally wanting to be around him- But some of his coworkers are crafty enough to make things extremely difficult for him.

These kinds of scenarios are tricky, because the fun can be cut quite short if the proportions of this conflict grow enough to alert Krulu. Workflow disruptions over a measly human? Unacceptable, either they solve it or he will. And no one wants that.

Santi won't immediately resort to violence. For as hot pocket brained as he can be, with his coworkers, it would be ideal if he could make some sort of valuable transaction to attain you.

Hey I hope you’re doing okay! Ive been stalking your page for a while! I’m in the same process of making a visual novel! I was wondering how you do the AI+Sims 4 without it looking you know jacked up! Would love to know your progress!

Hold your hats everyone, i'll be explaining in details...

I was quite sceptical about AI previously. It felt like I'm being replaced with something monstrous, artificial - the imitation of life that's superior me on every single parameter. The sudden sting of a guilt for years of seemingly vain trials and tribulations. Was it all just for nothing? I believe everyone of us came to that question sooner or later. But here I stand telling you how to make a machine fulfill your demands.

First thing. The machine loves precise. From my personal experience, a better formed human wish grants a better machinery result. A less formed wish gives it a choice. Think beforehand, seek the patterns (keywords) that may help you sustain the artstyle throughout the workflow.

Tell the AI what it needs to do. Give it a reference image and explain how you want it to be changed. For example, I want this alien dude becoming a:

"A visually ominous face of an eyeless humanoid creature. This divine image, resembling a digitally rendered painting, showcases the ancient Egyptian god of chaos in detail: sharp chin and cheekbones, dark gray and beige skin, shimmering with pulsating rainbow hues, blood is visibly circulating under his translucent, cadaverous skin. His mouth with tightened teeth grins menacingly. The overall composition is dynamic and captivating, evoking a sense of fear, malevolent power and impending chaos". That will be my prompt. If you're lacking skills then put your hands on other's results, copy their prompts and reshape according to your needs.

Oh. Not so eyeless. Let's give it less of a free will shall we?

Better now! Sadly the eyes are in place, as you can see it is not perfect even with precise input. Now let's make about 5-10 generations with same settings. It may take time to pass a cooldown after you'll run out of tokens, so be patient. If you have absolutely no spare money to buy a decent amount of generations (or if the transactions themselves are banned in your country 👍) and your enthusiasm is on pathetically vigorous level join me on free trial option almost any of the AI sites provide. That is fair exchange - money or your time.

You get what I mean? It could be anything shaped into another anything. Put here your sim, order a nice shot - here you go! Make something out of nothing with the power of words. Make a human being... some kind of.

Hooray! Not only we have the result we craved for but a whole bunch of reusable high-quality textures of various nature.

Our next step: we go in a deep dark lair of creator's mind. Hm-m, I'd correct here and there, erased that part and attached that one... Now we play "compile your Frankenstein out of everything that is not in its place". Of course a machine is not yet on the level where there wouldn't be a possibility to distinct its presence. So to hide these little (big, actually) inconsistencies we use a power of photo editing. Grab your software. With the power given to you by the sense of vision eliminate the overgrowing fingers and fight back mutilated teeth clumps.

Meet my favourite one hundred percent AI generated method. Generate a simple low quality image free and effortlessly (I use Craiyon, the perfect weapon)

Let another AI add the details for you. Catches the concept just great. Though it does not mean no handiwork after.

You can stylize it even further. Here you can see AI generated monster dudes crispy pixelated after a luxurious tour into pixelart AI. Good thing for a pixel indie gamestyle.

So, that's it. The secret is basically in your own hands. Acknowledge the style of your game, follow it while generating contents and patch up the AI mistakes.

+ zero investments

+ compensation for a lack of skills / hardware

+ easy to use

- even more work than if you would do all the same without AI

- straight dependence on sites / chat-bots, etc.

- time consuming

- many limitations (forget this if you're not on a free subscription... wait a second that abolish the first plus too!)

Hope it was helpful!

The Future of Commercial Loan Brokering: Trends to Watch!

The commercial loan brokering industry is evolving rapidly, driven by technological advancements, changing market dynamics, and shifting borrower expectations. As businesses continue to seek financing solutions, brokers must stay ahead of emerging trends to remain competitive. Here are some key developments shaping the future of commercial loan brokering:

1. Rise of AI and Automation

Artificial intelligence (AI) and automation are revolutionizing loan processing. From AI-driven underwriting to automated document verification, these technologies are streamlining workflows, reducing manual effort, and speeding up loan approvals. Brokers who leverage AI-powered tools can offer faster and more efficient services.

2. Alternative Lending is Gaining Momentum

Traditional banks are no longer the only players in commercial lending.

Brokers who understand and utilize data-driven insights can better match clients with the right lenders.

4. Regulatory Changes and Compliance Requirements

The commercial lending landscape is subject to evolving regulations. Compliance with federal and state laws is becoming more complex, requiring brokers to stay updated on industry guidelines. Implementing compliance-friendly processes will be essential for long-term success.

Online lending marketplaces are making it easier for businesses to compare loan offers from multiple lenders. These platforms provide transparency, efficiency, and better loan matching. Brokers who integrate digital platforms into their services can enhance customer experience and expand their reach.

Despite digital advancements, relationship-based lending remains crucial. Many businesses still prefer working with brokers who offer personalized service, industry expertise, and lender connections. Building trust and maintaining strong relationships with both clients and lenders will continue to be a key differentiator.

7. Increased Focus on ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) Lending

Sustainability-focused lending is gaining traction, with more lenders prioritizing ESG factors in their financing decisions. Brokers who understand green financing and social impact lending can tap into a growing market of businesses seeking sustainable funding options.

Final Thoughts

The commercial loan brokering industry is undergoing a transformation, with technology, alternative lending, and regulatory changes shaping the future. Brokers who embrace innovation, stay informed on market trends, and continue building strong relationships will thrive in this evolving landscape.

Harnessing Passive Income with CRO Strategies: Insights by cro.media

Boost your landing page's effectiveness with CRO principles and maximize conversions.

Source: https://cro.media/insights/ux-ui/crafting-high-performing-landing-pages-cro-principles/

Passive income represents the epitome of working smarter, not harder, with its potential to supplement earnings and build long-term wealth. At cro.media, we believe that passive income ventures, much like Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO), are about maximizing value from every effort. Here's how CRO principles can amplify passive income strategies.

Transforming Traffic Into Conversions

For many passive income ideas, from dropshipping to affiliate marketing, the key to success lies in effective CRO:

Optimized User Flows: Ensure a seamless journey from discovery to purchase with intuitive navigation and clear calls-to-action (CTAs).

A/B Testing: Experiment with landing pages, product descriptions, and CTAs to identify what drives the most conversions.

Data-Driven Insights: Leverage analytics to understand user behavior and refine strategies to align with audience preferences.

By fine-tuning the user experience, CRO transforms passive income ventures into scalable revenue streams.

Passive Income Meets Automation

Automation is central to both CRO and passive income:

Streamlining Workflows: Use tools to automate repetitive tasks, such as email marketing for digital product sales or ad retargeting for affiliate links. Learn more about Shopify app development.

Predictive Analytics: CRO tools can forecast which strategies will yield the best ROI, allowing you to focus on the most lucrative income streams.

Cross-Selling Opportunities: For dropshipping or print-on-demand stores, automated product recommendations can increase average order value.

Automation minimizes manual intervention, keeping passive income truly passive.

Enhancing Credibility and Trust

Trust is a critical CRO factor, especially for passive income models reliant on online sales or investments:

Social Proof: Showcase customer reviews or user-generated content to validate your offerings.

Secure Transactions: Highlight security features, such as encrypted payment systems, to reassure customers.

Professional Design: A visually appealing, functional website fosters credibility and encourages conversions.

"Strong CRO foundations ensure trust remains high, driving repeat engagement and income growth."

Strong CRO foundations ensure trust remains high, driving repeat engagement and income growth. See our Shopify agency services.

Diversification Through Strategic Insights

Just as CRO encourages testing and adaptation, passive income requires diversification:

Experimentation: Test multiple streams, such as affiliate marketing, digital product sales, or REIT investments, to identify the most profitable avenues.

Audience Segmentation: Use CRO principles to segment audiences and tailor offerings, ensuring relevance and resonance with target groups.

Sustainable Scaling: Focus on scalable models like print-on-demand or stock photography, which grow without proportional increases in effort.

Diversified strategies supported by CRO insights reduce risk and maximize passive income potential.

Maximizing Long-Term Gains

CRO's iterative nature aligns perfectly with building sustainable passive income:

Continuous Improvement: Regularly refine strategies based on performance data, from content adjustments to pricing experiments.

Retention Optimization: Implement loyalty programs or subscription models to maintain consistent revenue streams.

Scalability Focus: Invest in scalable tools and platforms that grow alongside your passive income ventures.

The Ultimate Developer’s Guide to STON.fi API & SDK Demo App

In the fast-paced world of blockchain and decentralized finance (DeFi), efficiency is everything. Developers don’t have time to manually configure and troubleshoot every feature from scratch. What they need is a plug-and-play solution that simplifies complex integrations while maintaining flexibility.

That’s exactly what the STON.fi API & SDK Demo App delivers. This tool isn’t just a sample—it’s a fully functional blueprint designed to help developers seamlessly integrate STON.fi’s token swap functionalities into their projects.

Whether you're an independent developer, part of a startup, or working with an established blockchain project, this demo app can save you hours of coding and debugging while ensuring a smooth user experience.

Let's break it down into why this tool matters, what it offers, and how you can make the most of it.

Why Every Developer Should Pay Attention to This Tool

Building DeFi applications requires precision, speed, and reliability. You’re dealing with real-time token swaps, liquidity pools, and user funds—there’s no room for error.

Developing a decentralized exchange (DEX) or any other blockchain application means working with smart contracts, APIs, and SDKs. The STON.fi API & SDK Demo App eliminates the complexity by providing a ready-made environment that demonstrates how STON.fi’s swap function operates in real-time.

Rather than starting from zero, developers can study, test, and integrate working solutions—accelerating their workflow and reducing risks.

Key Features That Make a Difference

The STON.fi API & SDK Demo App isn’t just a basic code snippet; it’s a structured, well-designed tool for developers looking to integrate token swaps efficiently. Here’s what makes it stand out:

1. Full-Scale Swap Functionality

The demo app provides a complete token swap system, showing exactly how transactions are executed. It includes all the necessary elements, such as price calculations, transaction confirmations, and seamless execution on the TON blockchain.

2. Clean, Modular Code for Easy Integration

Well-documented and structured code allows developers to adapt the swap function to their own projects. This modular approach makes customization straightforward, ensuring that developers don’t have to modify complex backend structures.

3. Real-Time Data & Execution

Blockchain transactions happen in real-time, so any delay or miscalculation can impact the user experience. This demo app mirrors actual trading conditions, allowing developers to test how their systems will function under real-world circumstances.

4. Compatibility Across Different DeFi Platforms

Whether you're building a DEX, a liquidity management system, or a DeFi dashboard, this app is flexible enough to fit into various use cases. Developers can integrate the swap function without restructuring their entire application.

How Developers Can Use This Tool to Their Advantage

1. Speed Up Development Time

Instead of writing swap functionalities from scratch, developers can focus on building unique features and optimizing user experience while leveraging STON.fi’s ready-made framework.

2. Reduce Errors & Improve Security

A Novel AI Workflow from NVIDIA Identifies False Credit Card Transactions.

The process, which is powered by the NVIDIA AI platform on AWS, may reduce risk and save money for financial services companies.

By 2026, global credit card transaction fraud is predicted to cause $43 billion in damages.

Using rapid data processing and sophisticated algorithms, a new fraud detection NVIDIA AI workflows on Amazon Web Services (AWS) will assist fight this growing pandemic by enhancing AI’s capacity to identify and stop credit card transaction fraud.

In contrast to conventional techniques, the process, which was introduced this week at the Money20/20 fintech conference, helps financial institutions spot minute trends and irregularities in transaction data by analyzing user behavior. This increases accuracy and lowers false positives.

Users may use the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software platform and NVIDIA GPU instances to expedite the transition of their fraud detection operations from conventional computation to accelerated compute.

Companies that use complete machine learning tools and methods may see an estimated 40% increase in the accuracy of fraud detection, which will help them find and stop criminals more quickly and lessen damage.

As a result, top financial institutions like Capital One and American Express have started using AI to develop exclusive solutions that improve client safety and reduce fraud.

With the help of NVIDIA AI, the new NVIDIA workflow speeds up data processing, model training, and inference while showcasing how these elements can be combined into a single, user-friendly software package.

The procedure, which is now geared for credit card transaction fraud, might be modified for use cases including money laundering, account takeover, and new account fraud.

Enhanced Processing for Fraud Identification

It is more crucial than ever for businesses in all sectors, including financial services, to use computational capacity that is economical and energy-efficient as AI models grow in complexity, size, and variety.

Conventional data science pipelines don’t have the compute acceleration needed to process the enormous amounts of data needed to combat fraud in the face of the industry’s continually increasing losses. Payment organizations may be able to save money and time on data processing by using NVIDIA RAPIDS Accelerator for Apache Spark.

Financial institutions are using NVIDIA’s AI and accelerated computing solutions to effectively handle massive datasets and provide real-time AI performance with intricate AI models.

The industry standard for detecting fraud has long been the use of gradient-boosted decision trees, a kind of machine learning technique that uses libraries like XGBoost.

Utilizing the NVIDIA RAPIDS suite of AI libraries, the new NVIDIA AI workflows for fraud detection improves XGBoost by adding graph neural network (GNN) embeddings as extra features to assist lower false positives.

In order to generate and train a model that can be coordinated with the NVIDIA Triton Inference Server and the NVIDIA Morpheus Runtime Core library for real-time inferencing, the GNN embeddings are fed into XGBoost.

All incoming data is safely inspected and categorized by the NVIDIA Morpheus framework, which also flags potentially suspicious behavior and tags it with patterns. The NVIDIA Triton Inference Server optimizes throughput, latency, and utilization while making it easier to infer all kinds of AI model deployments in production.

NVIDIA AI Enterprise provides Morpheus, RAPIDS, and Triton Inference Server.

Leading Financial Services Companies Use AI

AI is assisting in the fight against the growing trend of online or mobile fraud losses, which are being reported by several major financial institutions in North America.

American Express started using artificial intelligence (AI) to combat fraud in 2010. The company uses fraud detection algorithms to track all client transactions worldwide in real time, producing fraud determinations in a matter of milliseconds. American Express improved model accuracy by using a variety of sophisticated algorithms, one of which used the NVIDIA AI platform, therefore strengthening the organization’s capacity to combat fraud.

Large language models and generative AI are used by the European digital bank Bunq to assist in the detection of fraud and money laundering. With NVIDIA accelerated processing, its AI-powered transaction-monitoring system was able to train models at over 100 times quicker rates.

In March, BNY said that it was the first big bank to implement an NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD with DGX H100 systems. This would aid in the development of solutions that enable use cases such as fraud detection.

In order to improve their financial services apps and help protect their clients’ funds, identities, and digital accounts, systems integrators, software suppliers, and cloud service providers may now include the new NVIDIA AI workflows for fraud detection.
