The role of AI and GenAI in shaping smart cities
As intelligent communities with highly connected technology centers become the standard for the future of urban living, data analysis and actionable insights are strategically vital to elevating the standard of living, improving operational efficiency and enhancing city-wide sustainability. At the center of this transformation are AI and GenAI, which are revolutionizing public services, urban mobility, city planning, disaster management and sustainable practices. This transformation leads to a more livable and efficient urban environment that can address citizen needs effectively within the current resource framework, reducing operational costs without replacing human jobs.
Nvidia Corp’s GTC conference on March 19, which delivered multiple product and partnership announcements.
Management outlined initiatives across the company’s hardware and software offerings, including announcing its newest GPU architecture, Blackwell, which succeeds the Hopper architecture.
Longer-term Nvidia sees Generative AI (GenAI) as a ~$100 trillion market
I am sorry for my message as it was mostly out of context and based on the assumption everyone understood what I mean. A very poor assumption on my part.
eb said at times cash is used but not in this case. The year end financial statement shows that affluence doesn’t even have enough cash to buy a good flat screen TV let alone 3 different company’s. So if they fund the acquisitions it would be done with restricted shares. Most likely Series A. Which are shares that can not be converted to common shares at a latter date but can after a pre determined time be exchanged for convertible debt. But that would be a few years down the road
The other options eb said would be newly issued shares in the new company Digwhatever. That seems viable as well. Either way the concern for dilution is very little. And that is good.
No new company is going to come in and demand shares so they can kill the price of the stock by selling shares on the open market.
Hope that is a bit clearer
That is one way it is done. Another is cash. A merger may not include "paying" with either. Rather, it could be a merger of equals, and a totally new stock is created with each company's shareholders getting the % of the new stock that they have decided upon.
So AFFU pays for their share of the merger and acquisitions with undiluted shares to DB and Contrivian?
Agree, we should get the Share update tomorrow or Friday... and I will compare it to what up there now.. but for sure based on the trading there has not been any dilution in the open market... if we see any kind of rise thats an indicator they have sent shares to the other company's to start the payment process
At least AFFU holds it's gains unlike all of the other pieces of shit which lose their gains! We've been holding .01 plus a while now with no apparent dilution! I got to give them that!
I just slapped ask again. That is what it went at, .013.....but it went in 3 tranches at the same price....? $AFFU
Thank you for those explanations. They are very helpful for those of us who haven't spent a lot of time in the OTC markets. $AFFU
The question that is asked by many is why is it set up this way... answer is simple, prior to the 40 days rule there were so many scams created by LOI releases you could not keep up with them.
And I am NOT IN ANY WAY SAYING THAT THE AFFU DEAL(S) ARE A SCAM.
If you go back and look at this stock and compare it to the time line with the announcement of the Durham Black deal you will see that they run parallel in how things changed. This board had 4 people on it posting regularly and the price of the stock was anywhere between 004 and 007. We were waiting for OneMindNG to break out, release some big time contracts.. the market was just completely ignoring this company and the stock. Then comes the LOI/Merger and not only do we begin to get more and more posters the stock begins to rise. Gets over a penny and then a penny and a half and we have stayed there ever since the Durham announcement and then the addition of 3 more.
Now flash back in time and you will see the same thing with dozens of stocks every week someone had a hot new stock that was announcing a LOI and investors had better get in or get left behind. The company doing the announcements had 60 to 90 days to complete the process... During that process they began their money making operation, having stock promoters send out emails, supposed posters would go to every social media site and hawk the stock interest would grow and the price would grow, thus the Pump was born. All the time this was happening the company was funneling off shares and having them sold... then comes the time for the LOI to be completed more pump, reach the highest they think it will go and then start the sell off, millions of shares driving the price down profit going to the companys officers thru the spider network and then the LOI was declared receded as they could not agree on some matter or another. It took the SEC for ever to finally put a stop to it by changing the rules for LOI and mergers and now its very much controlled. We get the bump up but not the hype and the emails and promos like we did in the past...
This is why a think we get some type of announcment on the Durham deals soon.... Jim went out on a limb with the Few Weeks comment and now he will need to put something out about it soon, no later then Next week or there will be a lot of fall back on him, the company and the stock if he does not.
Gotcha, thanks
Here is the basic concept of an LOI or a Merger when it comes to business... prior to an announcement there are many, many weeks and months of discussions with the two companys. Affluence has had an idea of expansion for over a year, its been a topic of discussion and is even in their bio on their OTC page. So when James seen or was approached by a company or he approached them and they all agreed that their was a possibility for a take over or a merger then the discussion heated up.
I was told that the deal with Durham had been in the works for a long time, long before the announcement. That is how they all work, the talk about how they can work together, help each other and become bigger and better. When after all of that is done they then put out an LOI, which is a formal document stating they intend to move forward. Up until that LOI is released its all just talk, no one sees anything internally about the other one until a signed LOI is done. Then there is a due diligence period that the LOI instigates. That due diligence is when they share the internal information... if at that time one or the other discovers something they do not like the LOI is canceled and the deal is off. That internal review takes 40 days maximum when a public company is involved.
There is no business development decided there is no waiting for one or the other to finish up doing a project or anything, that is all taken care of once they have completed the deal . These deals are all about what two company's currently do, not what they will do individually. Then when done they begin to develop how they will accomplish the goals the have. Delays are not a part of the process. ... Unless both parties agree to one, like Durham and Contravian did when they announce the had extended the process for a "Few Weeks" You can not put them off for one , two or three months while you are bound to the LOI process if your a public company, which Affluence is... so from the time of the LOI announcement of the 3 new companys the clock began ticking, 40 days from that day they need to let the public know where they stand
OTC has us back to Pinksheet Current, thats good, very good. Now lets see that definitive agreement
Recent research on the Inet...take with a grain of salt...says corporate espionage is the biggest arena for spy work globally...proly no public metrics for evaluating a comparison with the cia and other globally operating spy networks.
In trying to factor in at least an amount of corporate espionage at a high, if not the highest level of concentration, then SECRECY truly is a huge concern in addition to gathering top flight people and top flight financing?
If so, am willing to axcept a couple more months, as I think INFORMATION SECURITY throughout what AFFU/DIGIBRIKS is/will be must be as good as that portion of their tech services/products offered now and into the future.
I rely on a couple of security services for my data on my phone and laptop as a general public working stiff.
With the foreseeable growth of Digibriks to be, can Digibriks afford to risk trusting an outsourced info security service?
They have to have their own intern complete security do they not?
Otherwise their marketable credibility rests on whatever security they hire from outside.
ONE of their soonest acquisitions or internal developments...if not already satisfactorily present and accounted for...must emerge soonest than later?!
If that is true, then maybe the discussions and layering and su h is over and they are waiting for an integrated security system for pre-3-? other additions?
I love spy movies so will stop there in case my ignorance as a newbie is already 'out there' in wild imagination land.
Perfect strategy DTGoody IMHO.

Hey Profit welcome back… we are getting closer to a definitive agreement with Durham Black and Contrivian… April 9 PR said to expect a definitive agreement in a few weeks. Based on an AI search A Few most often is defined as 2 to 3 weeks. We are starting the 3rd week so hopefully we see something very soon. That agreement would for sure get this jump started.
Signed up last night. My buddy tells me
more stock contacts on X than IHUB... I felt haunted with Linked In!
Still holding my shares here. Pretty impressive the way it is holding its PPS up here. Looks like it is ready to move to the next level.
This old news is still mind boggling
Affluence Corp / Dell / Nvidia / Orange Business Services

OneMind Technologies SL is a wholly owned subsidiary of AFFU
News gets put up on X
https://twitter.com/AffuCo
Frankly the mystery adds flavor to the wait.
Oh...well thanks for the heads up.
Pleased as punch there is a 3rd highly qualified person other than the top two at DB. That simply adds more gravitas for the formation of a really solid intl. Business with legs.
Seems we have Day and/or Swing Traders
Some dewd with deep pockets in his under pants took this down to .0121 with the grand total of 2000 shares bought. The Rah-Rah society is milling about.
I didn’t say Stutt or Shutt
I am leaving this as unnamed because the companies are under NDA
NDAs, or non-disclosure agreements, are legally enforceable contracts that create a confidential relationship between a person who has sensitive information and a person who will gain access to that information. A confidential relationship means one or both parties has a duty not to share that information.
Just because they are under NDA doesn’t mean we cannot figure out parts of the merger or part of the connections. Yes i think i figured out part of it.
I think it is best to let them get these mergers done rather than letting the names out of the so called bag and not disclose what i figured out at this time.
This unnamed person has the connections and abilities to grow OneMind from my hard DD and research.
i said:
a person (unnamed) who will build up critical mass of support for the combined merged company technologies, then he will establish it as a standard in the industry.
Patrick Shutt is the 2nd half that can and has proven he has the abilities to extremely grow companies or should i say parent company.
In this case he has the ability to merge Affluence and Durham Black into a major public company
Stutt is a standard creator, neat.
Lets be clear, I am one hundred and fifty percent positive that is what his plan is... to turn this into what he has done with the last three company's he has built... who would just one day decide... what the hell lets see what its like to just stagnate and maybe lose money... LOL Thats a joke for all you who do not get sarcasms The only real question here is what is Patrick's time lime for all of this... thats the thing we dont know and wont know until he takes it over and one day merges it away or sell it...
I am just anxious like everyone else to see this get rolling get him in the Big chair and see what he has up his sleeve. The man has high praise for his knowledge all over the internet so come on Affluence let us see him in action.
We are going end up with a person (unnamed) who will build up critical mass of support for the combined merged company technologies, then he will establish it as a standard in the industry.
This will be established with more partners in the industry worldwide.
This is the step where Patrick Shutt takes the lead in doing what he does best getting people and companies together to grow the company’s revenues to much higher revenues worldwide.
Which should payoff to AFFU shareholders.
Only thing missing are the completed mergers.
Perhaps he is at an age of Desiring growing a collosus and running it instead of growing and selling/merging another company?
The accumulation plan into 10 or more companies combining in a couple or more years might be an excellent ladt stop in his career b4 retiring?
Tj i am deep diving into research and the thinking of one of these mergers are at least about
Who
What
Where
And the Partners thereof and their partners.
The partners are not overlapping at least on one that i am thinking. This should be good for OneMindNg to work with more partners
It does go back to the beginnings of OneMind
The connections go back to Worldsensing and at least one partner of partners have a partner with Orange.
One of these merger partners could also be a good thing for Durham Black for events and PR Media
Again as we know this is a guess with only a grain of a connection and the companies in the mergers are not disclosing who they are.
Note: i do not believe worldsensing is one of the mergers but maybe a connection to them
Perfect plan. Let’s see it all come together for you and everyone else who has a strategy on how to play this One one was is right or wrong. It’s what’s right for each individual.
I see.
Was thinking sell orders at
- 20% at double my sp cost.
-20% at triple
-20% at 4x
-20% at 5x = tad under 9 cent sp.
Maybe keep 20% based on its likely growth spurts during its infancy and early childhood.
If it hits at wx, 3x, 4x and 5x levels and dips I can always buy some of the dip if I want a larger position.
Do you see any problem with that strategy if I am willing to affordable take the inherent risk?
Ten cents is a metophorical number, one that is thrown out there for effect. Time lines are the same, what my Dad used to call a Guess-Estimate... Business at this level, OTC level are constantly in motion, for ever looking for a way to succeed... Affluence has announced 4 LOI in the past from 2020 till 2022 and only one of them was successful... but that is a common when it comes to these types of companies.. they need to grow to succeed, they need exposure and they need liquidity
We are, myself included, just assuming that the company has picked wiz bang other company's to join up with... but we have no real idea of what they are, we are just guessing and if they are not what we hope then when this begins to take off like it did after the OneMind deal only to crash and burn as time ran on and on and on while OneMind has expanded that same thing can happen. You need to be prepared that taking a 50, 75 or 100 percent gain is a smart move sometimes.
My point here is we need to get thru step one before we get to excited about steps 2, 3, and 4. Sept one is getting Durham in here, once we do that we get a very clear picture of what the future is going to look like.. and what type of time line they have in mind for it to get there. Does Patrick feel that if he can pull this all together and we are able to move up to the Nasdaq in a 3 to 5 year period, while we are all looking for 500% in 5 months... we dont know what we know is and dont kid yourself, once this becomes clear and if it does move forward on the initial news, many of the people you see here wont be here... there are two people here still that I know of who were here in 2022 when this made its last big run... from 01 to .048 when the deal with Dell, again a $91 billion dollar market cap stock, was announced... they sold with 2,3 and some 4 hundred percent and moved on. Its how this all works... I moved on and I came back and depending on what we find out I will make the choice to move on or stay...if I stay it will be with very long term shares tucked away and profit in the bank and then on to the next one.
On the OTC 5 months can at times seem like 5 years... it never goes by fast, trust me...
From 2 experienced contributors, low sp now could continue due to
1. Yield sign bias
2. Sub penny sp if it dips there before mergers and acquisitions are complete
Or
3. a confluence of both, equally or either one's predominating.
And the positives are quite substantial given
A. reports that OTC is customarily slow in removing a yield sign
B. Dell and ONEMINDNG ongoing g top tier relationship.
C. DB coming into the mix seemingly with Contrivian b4 and so regardless of the 3 unnamed companies being sought in the future = upgrading of the business top flight people.
D. The yield sign will proly be removed at some point so more a bump or series of bumps in the road instead of a permanent barrier.

Good thing OneMindNg is working with DELL
DELL Edge Smart Factories
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/dell-expands-manufacturing-edge-solutions-130000829.html
Big companies are getting more into smart factories
I wonder if OneMindNg is a part of this too
OneMind is an Edge vendor (highest level Dell gives their vendors) for Dell Technology they can also recommend them on any or all of the Dell projects that OneMind is a part of.
And as a reminder for anyone who does not know Dell has a $89 Billion dollar Market Cap and they chose a penny stocks subsidiary for a vendor. Just let that sink in people then grab as many shares as you can or just watch…
Note:
This post has been borrowed from a very wise man.
I have been trading the otc for 29 years now.
Back then it was greys, pinks, otcbb…..
Back then they traded i think in 1/8ths instead of .0001’s
You are correct the Otc Markets are fast to put a yield sign on a stock but very very slow to take it down. They read these boards and monitor the actions of the companies.
They alert 🔔 🚨 when a stock has promotional activity or to much news to be true also.
The main reason this is down is because the yield sign. The yield ⚠️ sign could slow the merger too.
I would think a company coming into this would rather not be coming into a company with a yield sign.
When that yield ⚠️ sign comes down buyers will be back.
If we believe the yield ⚠️ sign will come down than we should believe this is still a bargain to hold or buy more or start a position
Potential bad news...it takes 5 months or so to hit a 10 cent sp instead of within a few weeks.
Good news...lt could hit 10 cent sp anytime soon...and if not... in 5 months or so likely will.
If it really happens.
I can wait 5 months to a a 550% increase in my average purchase price...especially since selling any of it would be silly if I don't have to.
Given my mind can achieve these thoughts I can only guess most other investors are not considering this stock...and those who are either have better alternatives or a bias against sub penny sp, or near sub penny sp.
Your 20 year experience tells you it will be almost all bias against near or sub penny sp, non purchasing if it goes further south ...
Wow?!
Who said you can never go broke underestimating the public's mentality?
We really seem to be extremely emotion based to more our detriment than our good.
I fully understand what your saying and think your 100% correct, with just this one little exception... I say that because I fully (not saying you doint but other may not) understand how the OTC and pinksheets are perceived out there. The fact of the matter is this, we have LOI's and a merger we are waiting on, we also have no real idea when any of it will be announced.. the Durham Black and Contriviane were stated to receive definitive agreements in a few weeks on April 9th. So that means it could happen still today or any time this week or next week.
Now the perception will be in every ones favor if this is at minimum a penny and better if over a penny... if its a sub penny then all we will get are nickel and dime investors who say, "l will throw a couple bucks at this and see what happens" then as we wait for the others to get done and it sits at sub penny or back and forth from to to penny then it just dies off again like it is now. Those that invested say I should have know nothing would come of it, what a POS and they sell it back down again.
So what should have taken two or three weeks to get to a dime takes another two or three months and then it become another JAGX a stock full of flippers, bashers and traders who just give up and move on. After 20+ years on the OTC I can tell you what I am saying is the rule not the exception. If we get Durham Black and Contriviane definitive issued and signed and this is 02 we hit 10 cents with in 3 to 5 days... if its below a penny we hit 10 cents in 5 months when the others are done... I say 5 months because Durham and Contriviane were announced in late Jan and we are now in May... over 4 months.. since there are 3 of the others coming in and all 3 are different companys then 5 will be a good time line. All of this giddy DD we are all doing and hoping it will pay off big will be just a time filler... and we are now at .0102 as of this posting... If people want this to succeed they need to think of just the company and not how cheap they can get in... .102 or .013 wont mean shit in ones wallet if this hits .10 its a ten bagger either way... but .0102 can kill it off with just one or two more trades in that area.
I have said my piece and will drop the subject and just let it trade how its going to trade. One last thing I spoke with Jim and they have given the OTC everything they need for this to get back to current status, its the OTC that is dragging its feet on getting it back to Pinksheet Current.
TJ don’t get me wrong i would love for this to be 2 cents or higher right now.
My point was that i am not selling if it drops.
I don’t let fear get to me when things drop.
When others fear jump i jump in.
When i jump in i jump in buying large amounts.
These mergers are going to be huge when completed.
I wonder if some of theses mergers were using company services of each other’s already and they thought being one huge company would be best for all??!!
Ok we are up 14%, no wait now 19% up
Someone kicked started the day!
Agree. My thought process is we are on the cusp of some very big things happening. I would like to see them happen with this closer to .02 then .007
There is a time in trading when the ONLY thing that matters is Price Per Share. Announcing 5 new companies coming in is that time.
Looks like nobody is ASK slapping.
I hold a very large position but half of me don’t care if it goes down and the other half of me would like it to go up to see my account value go up.
I really wasn’t going to sell any right now.
It is just important to hold a stock to keep it from falling. Sure buying helps a stock move up.
You can guarantee if it falls hard i will pick up the crumbs to add to my collection.
But right now I have a very large position to hold.
I have never made a mistake.
Oh wait i got married many years ago, that poor girl would have done much better without me.
No seriously we all make mistakes.
Stocks will go up and stocks will go down.
You will not time a stock high or low.
You can spread your buys and sells over time to average up or down.
Who is the ASK slapper going to be at the open... or will it be one more dive into the shallow end and pick up the last of the 01's before we return to sub penny...
Your questions are a breath of fresh air. Far too many times those of us who asked those same questions 5 10 and 20 years ago hand good people guide us down the road so we too could gain experience.
Now all we get are Jack ass comments on what a POS this is. So I enjoy being able to have open dialogue as well as help others avoid the mistakes I made.
