π New Developments: design system and Dashboard
I wanted to do a prediction for next year, where I think, the World is going to move, based on what I know at this very moment!
I think it'll be exciting to read this back at the end of 2023 and see what predictions came true and what didn't...
+ There will be a Surprise at the end of the email! π
π¨ Important Disclaimer: In this post I will not only bring you "predictions" about BookBase, but about the whole World! π
π¬ ChatGPT will be used by 100 million people
Next year AI will be ripe for ordinary people to learn to use, a good example of this was ChatGPT, which got its first 1,000,000 users in 5 days! π
I think in our country, it will have a big take-off when the Hungarian language will be developed a little (I think it's already pretty good) and when it will become a habit. ππΊ
Will we get to the point where, if you have a question, you don't type it into Google anymore, but into an AI like this? π
π€ AGI is going to be invented
AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) can now think like a human, find connections and literally fill jobs. This is what will bring the real breakthrough for humanity. π³
The question is in which direction it will affect our lives. π€
π Book review: Yuval Noah Harari - Homo Deus is exactly what he says, that sooner or later man (Homo Sapiens) will rise to the level of demigod thanks to technology. It is a very interesting read, well worth a flick through if you are interested in this topic. Of course, it is also on the BookBase.
πͺ CBDCs are being introduced
CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currencies) is a digital currency, but not a cryptocurrency. It is different from money stored on a bank card as it is programmable. It is in the interest of nations to introduce them because they would literally see every transaction and be able to track it using the blockchain. π
Which would result in the 'black economy' being significantly reduced. Once CBDCs are introduced, the goal is to steadily reduce cash turnover and even eliminate it altogether. π«
Programmability, on the other hand, is very dangerous, because they can easily block you from everything or tell you what you can and can't spend money on (I've heard of extreme cases in China where someone with lung disease, for example, couldn't buy cigarettes for himself, he might have the money, but the terminal wouldn't accept it in the tobacconist's...) β
π‘Side note: This is exactly what Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are trying to do - to replace centralized banks with a decentralized system! Bitcoin is 99.9% likely to survive and, as far as I know, it could mean freedom for people.
π΄ YouTube Shorts dominates TikTok
With a new feature coming to YouTube in February that will pay for Shorts, as it stands, YouTube will be the most financially worth it. So, a lot of short content producers will either move to or at least try YouTube Shorts. ππΌ
If TikTok can't move on this, they will lose a lot of content producers, which will result in worse and less content, which will lead to less users in the long run. π
I wonder if this move will work for YouTube, but they definitely need to throw something big because they are threatening the Giga company from multiple directions. YouTube has been threatened by TikTok this year and Google by ChatGPT. So, something has to be done or this could lead to a checkmate! β
πΌ NFTs are becoming increasingly important
Larger companies will also start to introduce NFTs, whether in the form of coupons, badges or loyalty programs. They are starting to see the hidden benefits of the technology and realizing that in the long run it will be worth their while. π
Also, this will start a wave, because if McDonalds starts, so will Burger King and KFC and so on. π
π‘ Side notes 2: That's why it's worth learning about NFTs and how to make them in advance, because the next big hype after SMMA and AI shops will be NFT Agencies, who will help small and medium businesses move from web2 to web3!

And now let's take a look at the BookBase predictions!
π§ Deep Dive will be a huge success
A lot of people will use the Deep Dive feature because it gives them the opportunity to get even more into the essence of each book. β
Many people will return to the Application because of Deep Dive, as those who didn't use it because they found the summaries too short will now get a chance to expand. π²
π‘ Side notes 3: I think this will be one of our most important new features!
π AI book recommendation appears in BookBase
There will be an AI that is trained only to give users the most accurate book recommendations possible. This will help them to improve. This feature will also greatly increase the use of the App, as it will introduce "binge-listening", like binge-watching a series, where you sit down and watch 4 episodes in one. π§
Now that's exactly what you're going to do here - start listening to 3 books in a row!
π¦ More and more companies will subscribe to BookBase
Because they realize that it's significantly cheaper than 1 to 1 training and they can get a lot more pages of information from it. In some companies it will be fully integrated into the internal training material. π
At first, I can think mainly of Sales and Marketing departments, but later it may be adopted by HR because of the books on psychology and communication. π
π‘ Side notes 4: We've had 2 companies approach us about this already, our system just wasn't ready to receive them in the quality we would like. But that will change next year. So, if you work for or know such a company, don't hesitate to drop me an email (hello@onlinemarketinges.com) and let's talk about it!
π₯ Challenge
The biggest challenge for me now is to get some rest. Because things are pretty busy here at the end of 2022. π
The beginning of 2023 will be all about rest and recharging for me, BUT...
You know me so well, the only way I can afford that is to work ahead! Because I can't go anywhere without leaving you any content! π
It's true that in January, 1-2 Blog Posts may go out at different times, but I won't forget, I promise! ππ»
π What am I reading now?
I've started reading Copywriting Secrets by Jim Edwards. It's not a bad book, but it didn't grab me that much right now, so I only skimmed through 2 chapters that were the most useful to me right now. Somehow, I wasn't in that mentality at this moment.βοΈ
I was just thinking about what book to start 2023 with and Almanack of Naval Ravikant might be the perfect choice! π
I've vowed to read a bit more spiritual books in the coming year, because this year I've been spinning stoicism (which I loved) almost exclusively on the business theme. I'm curious about Reality Trans surfing, so that's on my list too. ππΌββοΈ
π§ What have I been listening to now?
I was watching one of Dan Koe's youtube videos just this week, it was about learning more effectively and how not to fall into the trap of self-improvement. This topic appealed to me so much that I have written a YouTube video script about, which I think I will record in early January. π
π‘ Side notes 5: Geri and Batu and I did a great year plan on Tuesday, we planned the YouTube strategy for the next 3 months, it will include some DoKu style videos and some new kinds of Thumbnails!
