Parkev Tatevosian from The Motley Fool highlights an undervalued stock, Upwork, which is currently priced at around $10 per share and has dropped 82%, presenting a potential investment opportunity.
Upwork has identified six in-demand freelance skills for 2024, including data analytics, full stack development, social media marketing, accounting, general virtual assisting, and graphic design. These skills are highly sought after, with professionals charging up to $250 per hour for social media marketing. The demand for these skills is driven by the evolving technology landscape and the ongoing need for specialized expertise in various business functions.
Cognition's claim of creating "the first AI software engineer" named Devin has been debunked after accusations of lying about its performance in promo videos. The AI failed to understand and complete an Upwork task as showcased, with crucial details overlooked by its creators. The task was seemingly cherry-picked to showcase Devin's abilities, and it took the AI much longer to solve it compared to a human. Ultimately, the presentation of Devin's capabilities was marred by human error, casting doubt on its groundbreaking status.
