The global sports market is projected to rise from $354.96 billion in 2021 to $501.43 billion in 2022, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 41.3 percent. At a CAGR of 9%, the sports market is anticipated to reach $707.84 billion in 2026. From 2022 to 2030, the global metaverse market is anticipated to expand at a compound yearly growth rate of more than 45.8%, reaching a market size of more than $1,803 billion. Shikhar Dhawan was inspired by this to establish a sports metropolis in the Metaverse. The Da-One group of businesses, which focuses on sports, technology, startup ecosystems, and entertainment, was recently established by him.

Dhawan stated in a statement, "I've always made an effort to stay current with technology. I'm very curious about how sports can incorporate with the most recent web3 developments. Our team is pushing the limits of virtual reality to make it truly democratic and accessible for everyone in light of the changing internet consumption habits of millennials and Gen Z. To bridge the gap between the currently available offline sports/fitness avenues and metaverses, we are developing a fully functional and sustainable multiverse economy. You kind of have to be crazy to do anything like this and have an original influence."

Cricket stadiums, a sportsplex where spectators may enjoy watching sports, a sports cafe, gym, e-sports zone, cottages, running tracks, a 3D immersive sports museum, a sports library, an arena for other sports, and more will be found in this soon-to-be-opened sports city. In addition to the aforementioned, fascinating partnerships with additional well-known sports figures and sports communities are upcoming.

"The purpose is to develop a sports universe that accommodates fans. Essentially, this will be a sports city constructed using the most recent blockchain-based technology, with the intention of developing into a community-owned and decentralised platform that supports utility tokens, dApps, and an ecosystem for XR-based education. The initiative's main goal, according to WIOM's founder Abhinav Tandon, will be to offer best-of-breed, market-leading Metaverse technologies."

Given the importance of the community-owned platform in web3, the residents and users of this virtual city will enjoy a one-of-a-kind location. As a Web3 Fintech business, our objective will always be to make cutting-edge solutions available to the general public, according to a statement from Vikas Singh, co-founder of Bliv.Club.

Microsoft will stop supporting Windows 8.1 in January 2023

Beginning January 10, 2023, Microsoft will stop releasing security updates for Windows 8.1. Users are then urged to upgrade to Windows 11 for a safer experience. One of my favourite versions of the well-known operating system was Windows 8.1, particularly since it struck the ideal mix between the older, traditional Windows interface and the tiled UI Microsoft was aiming for at the time. After the disaster that was Windows 8, Windows 8.1 offered a steady experience.  However, Windows 8.1's demise is imminent as Windows 10 and Windows 11 have become considerably more popular, stable, and feature-rich. According to Microsoft, technical support for Windows 8.1 will cease in January 2023, or around 7 months from now. Similarly, support for Windows 8 was discontinued in January 2016. Users of Windows 8.1 who want to continue using the operating system securely must upgrade to a newer version of Windows after January 10, 2023, as they will no longer receive security updates.

Report: AI is no longer a fringe technology in India

According to a recent analysis by Bain & Company, 80 percent of the businesses examined now have at least one AI model in use, proving that artificial intelligence is no longer a cutting-edge technology in India. The paper, titled From Buzz to Reality: The Accelerating Pace of AI in India, is based on a survey of close to 150 providers and 350 businesses. It will be released on Tuesday. Microsoft and the Internet and Mobile Association of India have worked together on this (IAMAI). As opposed to 56 percent of their global counterparts, technology solution providers in India are the ones driving AI adoption, with 64 percent of their solutions incorporating AI/ML as a core component. However, only a few use cases have been implemented by most enterprises, who are still in the early phases of adopting AI. Indian companies are now substantially more interested in using AI to boost business outcomes. However, there is a lot of hype and hyperbole surrounding what exactly qualifies as art...
