Metaverse: An Environmental Sustainability Tool?
No full textTo be genuinely competitive today, organizations cannot ignore ethical issues and their impact on the environment and the community. In the fashion industry specifically, the issue of sustainability has become central as the socio-environmental impact of the industry is enormous. The fast fashion model adopted by so many companies operating on the global market is the exact opposite of the ethical dimension of fashion that has been needed in recent years. Can innovation and the opportunities the Metaverse offers be the way to a more sustainable fashion? In recent years, many start-ups have sprung up that exclusively produce digital fashion, and many other companies whose core business is mainly in real life (IRL) have integrated digital fashion into their business strategies. Through the investigation of four case studies, the paper aims to investigate the lights and shadows of digital fashion in the Metaverse, trying to clarify whether this model is compatible with the need for a more sustainable fashion, especially from an environmental point of view
Is the Rise of AI in the Metaverse a Way to Make the Fashion Industry More Sustainable?
No full textDigital transformation significantly impacts business growth and development, with the fashion industry once again at the forefront of major technological advancements. From the textile factories that powered the first industrial revolution to current explorations of artificial intelligence (AI), fashion now stands on the brink of a ‘second machine age’ (Brynjolfsson & McAfee, 2014). Over the next 12 to 24 months, AI adoption in the fashion industry is expected to accelerate (Comité Colbert and Bain & Company, 2024), particularly within the metaverse, as demonstrated by companies like DressX and The Fabricant. These organizations leverage AI in both B2C offerings and internal processes, enhancing operational efficiency and sustainability through advanced data management. This chapter addresses a research gap on the use of AI in the fashion metaverse for value generation and capture. Employing a multi-case study approach (Yin, 1993), this exploratory research investigates both the opportunities and challenges of AI implementation, emphasizing its potential to improve value chain efficiency and sustainability
Exposure-Tolerant Imaging Solution forCultural Heritage Monitoring
No full textThis paper describes a simple and cheap solution specifically designed for monitoring the degradation of thin coatings employed for metal protection. The proposed solution employs a commercial photocamera and a frequency-domain-based approach that is capable of highlighting the surface uniformity changes due to initial corrosion. Even though the proposed solution is specifically designed to monitor the long-time performance of protective coatings employed for the restoration of silver artifacts, it can be successfully used also for assessing the conservation state of other ancient metallic works of art. The proposed solution is made tolerant to exposure changes by using a procedure for sensor nonlinearity identification and correction, does not require a precise lighting control, and employs only free open-source software, so that its overall cost is very low and can be used also by not specifically trained operator
The C-Section Epidemic: What's Tort Reform Got to Do With It?
No full textToday one in three babies in the United States comes into the world by cesarean section. The cesarean section has become the most commonly performed operating room procedure in the United States. Conventional wisdom holds that malpractice liability bears primary responsibility for the cesarean section epidemic and that tort reform, which caps physician liability, holds the key to its reduction. This article presents new aggregate empirical data that debunks this view. For the first time, it provides a national cesarean rate for births subject to damage caps and a national cesarean rate for births without damage caps. This data shows that a woman is not less likely to give birth by cesarean section in a state with damage caps than in one without. Thus, either damage caps are insufficient to address physicians’ concerns or other explanations better account for the overuse of the procedure. The empirical analysis will assist policy makers and advocates seeking to reduce the cesarean rate as well as contribute to consideration of the efficacy of medical malpractice reform as a means to reduce the broader problem of medical overtreatment.
The article then outlines three policy initiatives to reduce the cesarean section rate. First, it suggests upending the current payment practice for deliveries. Contrary to the present norm, it proposes that obstetricians receive more rather than less to deliver vaginally to compensate them for the extra time that vaginal delivery takes compared to cesarean delivery. Second, rather than looking to tort reform to reduce cesarean section rates, the article explores whether malpractice insurance providers themselves are contributing to the cesarean section epidemic and advocates two novel medical malpractice insurance reforms to address this problem. Third, it advocates public disclosure of hospital and physician cesarean section rates so that women can make informed decisions when selecting their health care providers and when determining whether to have a cesarean section
