TCAST: The Future of Data & AI

Nobody operates in a vacuum. All our actions have consequences that spill over into the lives of other people. 

Join Alexander and Jason as they discuss who is affected by TARTLE. This is the final section of their six-part section on TARTLE University.  

TARTLE was designed for humanity. In this era, data is everything. It’s a track record of who we are as individuals. It helps businesses and governments make informed decisions. Data is what will drive humanity forward and further into the future.

But in a world where everyone wants your data, we need to start teaching people how to take responsibility for their personal information. The reality is that it is just as easy for malicious actors to use our data for their vested interests as it is for us to usher in a brighter tomorrow. We need everybody’s help, especially yours, to help humanity win.

Anybody with internet access has the power to nurture self-responsibility and uphold the values of ethically sourced data. On TARTLE, you are responsible for sharing data, helping other human beings, and spreading the good news to your friends and family.

How should a data-driven world function for individuals? Ideally, only you get to see your data until you choose to release it. That means businesses do not get to source your data or tell you how to use it unless you are spearheading that decision-making process. Through TARTLE, you have the free will to consent or withhold consent when it comes to sharing and selling your data.

Encryption prevents people who have not been given rightful access to your data from reading it, in the unlikely event that they gain access to it. Join Alexander and Jason as they provide a brief explanation regarding how your data is stored and valued on TARTLE.

You are more lucrative than you think. And when you start working with a platform that knows how to handle your data properly, your potential is limitless. 

On TARTLE, the platform’s buyer interface allows users to view available data packets by location, gender, demographic, and more. What’s important is that as a seller, you fill out each data packet truthfully and honestly. 

Aside from your hard work, referring your friends and loved ones to the platform increases the value of the data packets that are being filled out. 

However, the only way to increase the chances of getting bids is to put in more work and fill out more data packets. 

This is your opportunity to create infinite value for yourself and others.

Join Alexander and Jason as they continue their discussion on TARTLE University. In this episode, they discuss where your personal information is stored and how the platform is built to empower you.

Sellers who have signed up to become data champions on TARTLE know that their personal information is encrypted and stored on the company’s servers. If you are planning to sign up, know that even we can’t access your data unless we choose to buy it from you.

In an era where information reigns supreme, it is our goal to give humanity a platform where their data is respected.

Referring a friend is peak data champion behavior. Here’s a secret to the platform: if you share your code with a data buyer, and a data buyer signs up under your code and buys data, we will deposit commissioned earnings directly into your TARTLE wallet.

This means that you can make multiple streams of income selling data by helping TARTLE attract buyers.

TARTLE University offers the opportunity to earn while learning more about data, technology, and the world around you. Your data earnings are entirely your own. The funds go straight into your wallet and nobody, not even TARTLE, will take a cut out of it. You deserve to reap all the benefits of your hard work.

We cannot understate the ubiquity and importance of data in a world where everyone is plugged into the internet. Data is everything; it’s the record of who you are in humanity and it has every action that all human beings have taken here on this globe.

Join Alexander and Jason as they discuss the second learning module available at TARTLE University. 

Data security should be a high priority on two fronts. First, people should be taught that their information is valuable. They need to have the tools and equipment available to store, and secure their personal information. 

Second, people also need the opportunity to earn from their hard work. We produce data by the second:. Our geographical location, heartbeat, choices, and actions are all information we may be generating based on the settings we have on our devices. 

However, today’s status quo puts us in an uncomfortable position. We are being harvested for our data by institutions and entities that do not necessarily have our best interests at heart. Today, we are made to choose between maintaining the status quo and leaving power in the hands of other people–or claiming what’s rightfully ours by supporting the platforms that support us.

If you have an internet connection, you are capable of accessing TARTLE. TARTLE gives you the ability to fill out secure, encrypted, data packets that you are free to sell at your own pace. Through this platform, people have the opportunity to practice self-responsibility over their own data. 

It’s time to explore platforms that support your choices.

How many missed opportunities do you still revisit and look back on in regret? Don’t let your personal data become another source of sadness. 

Join Alexander and Jason as they discuss the best time to sign up on TARTLE and start filling out data packets. This episode is going to be short and simple because the direct answer to every question is right now.

On the TARTLE platform, the marketplace is always operating. It operates asynchronously. You can be ready to start selling data at any time and TARTLE will process your information immediately.

Sellers get bids on their data packets whenever a buyer is online and wants to buy their information. The opportunity to earn is always there because the marketplace never closes. 

So when’s the best time to answer a data packet? It’s right now when you are on the system. Don’t put it off or wait for a “better” moment. If you wait, a bid could come in on the data packet that you did not fill out. You would miss out on the opportunity to earn from that. 

Data sellers receive their funds instantaneously after the transaction is completed. Sellers are paid in US dollars and are free to withdraw their funds at any time.

It’s time to earn, learn, and empower ourselves by investing in platforms that invest in us.

What if you could get paid to learn more about your data? Join Alexander McCaig and Jason Rigby in this special episode on TARTLE University learning modules. 

We live in a world where other people reap the benefits of our hard work. For decades, we have been kept in the dark about the power of our data–but now is our chance to change that. Through TARTLE, we have the opportunity to empower, equalize, and take ownership of our own data. 

Today, data is a crucial part of scaling businesses. Companies need to know more about their audience, their processes, and their products. There are so many blind spots that only information can answer. 

TARTLE is a free marketplace that empowers the seller and buyer of data. It’s a nonprofit platform that facilitates ethical data sharing. Continued usage of this platform gives us the opportunity to change our perspective of data, and see it as the fundamental record of truth that can help us elevate all human understanding. 

We emphasize how the platform is a free and public marketplace because it is only through these features that empowerment can truly be achieved for both buyers and sellers. Regardless of race, religion, color, or creed, anyone can participate in the process of sharing data. 

Ultimately, TARTLE has a proven, consistent track record of being transparent in every single process. Every step is meant to involve the end users, without the platform taking anything from any transaction. 

It’s time we invest in platforms that have the best interests of humanity at heart.

How much effort should you put into creating new things?

With all the technologies available to us now, data and scalable algorithms will be the key to making sure that businesses grow effectively. Join Alexander and Jason as they explore what it means to have a “quantum advantage” for your business today.

Part of the article that is discussed in this episode puts forward the long-term goal of reaching a “quantum advantage for materials, to utilize quantum computing to achieve capabilities that cannot be achieved on any super computer today.”

While the possibilities are endless and it’s exciting to think about all the innovation that could happen when we reach that point, let’s not put the cart before the horse. We need to establish a foundation so that these futuristic tools can become a reality. If applied quantum algorithms continue to break down despite the complexity and sophistication with which they were made, then this means that researchers need to go back and reassess the technologies supporting it in the first place.

How can TARTLE help businesses become more efficient with data collection? 

In this episode, Alexander shares how a local natural gas company in New Mexico sends out paper surveys in the mail. This company invests in this system and hopes that someone will take the time to diligently fill out their 15-question survey and mail it back to them. 

Investing in mail is expensive and it does not target the intended audience. Instead, they can digitize the survey and collect the information they need directly from the people who participate in that region with oil and gas. Beyond data collection, they can also increase awareness about their industry by embedding educational videos to teach people as they collect their data.

One petabyte of information is equal to 500 billion pages of standard printed text.

The European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS), the EU’s watchdog, has made a shocking discovery: Europol has a data cache that’s at least four petabytes, filled with sensitive personal information that was unlawfully collected and held.

Join Alexander and Jason as they discuss Europol’s massive, controversial data cache–and the disturbing implications of the institution’s actions.

Have you ever given a second thought about what it means to turn on your smartphone’s Location setting? Or what would happen if you clicked on Accept All Cookies whenever you entered a new website? 

Since most of us live as creatures of habit, our small decisions to use these settings and forget about them can have a big impact. Without your informed consent, they could plot out your entire schedule. Your favorite places to eat and hang out, the gym you go to, your workplace.  Everything can be accessed and filed away.

Europol is primed to become the center of machine learning and AI in policing. And yet, the bloc’s watchdog has uncovered a dark truth: that they have been unlawfully storing information secondary or tertiary to their investigations. Hacked data from encrypted phone services and information from asylum seekers who were never involved in any crime have been stowed away without the full, informed consent of those involved.

It’s true: we need to trust that our government institutions have our best interests at heart. But if they can’t even be upfront about the amount of information they have on their citizens, then that leaves so much room for misuse and manipulation.

In this episode, Jason narrates the story of Frank van der Linde. Van der Linde, a political activist, was placed on a terror watchlist in his native Netherlands and later removed. However, he had moved to Berlin before the removal and this prompted the Dutch police to share his data with their German counterparts and Europol.

After discovering this, he attempted to have his personal data removed from any international databases. But Europol told him that they had nothing he was “entitled to have access to.”

Van der Linde’s situation is a wake-up call to the harms associated with a lack of transparency. Behind his back, Europol shared his personal information with the German police. In the name of public security, it’s possible for police to share data with other police in other countries. But why is it so difficult to share this data with us? How quickly can we get persecuted for speaking the truth to power?

Your data is worth your life. Entrust your personal information to platforms that know how to treat it with dignity and respect.
