  1. 1. FACEBOOK IS NOW META. Meta's corporate sociotechnical imaginary and the discursive construction of the Metaverse as the social platform of the future

    Master-uppsats, Institutionen för tillämpad informationsteknologi

    Författare :Marc Castell; [2023-11-22]
    Nyckelord :corporate sociotechnical imaginary; corporate communication; future narratives; Metaverse; platform capitalism; strategic narratives; Sociology of Knowledge Approach to Discourse;

    Sammanfattning : The interpretive discourse-analytic framework of the Sociology of Knowledge Approach to Discourse is used to analyze how Meta's senior executives discursively frame the use of augmented reality and virtual reality in order to position the Metaverse as the next social platform during Connect 2021. The findings suggest five interpretive schemas that characterize the Metaverse as a social platform of the future: (a) the Metaverse as the next version of the Internet; (b) the Metaverse as a facilitator of presence and a connector of people; (c) the Metaverse as a marketplace in the Metaverse economy; (d) the Metaverse as a ubiquitous place in our daily lives; and (e) the Metaverse as a space designed in a responsible manner.

  3. 2. Exploring electroweak symmetry breaking in the scale-invariant Two-Higgs-Doublet Model

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Erik Rustas; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Two-Higgs-Doublet Models; 2HDM; Scale-invariance; Baryogenesis; BSM; Baryon Asymmetry; Coleman-Weinberg Potential; Theoretical Particle Physics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the properties of a general scale-invariant Two-Higgs-Doublet Model and its phenomenological consequences with focus on the scalar sector. The concept suggests that introducing more CP-violation, both spontaneous and explicit, may make it possible to meet the Sakharov conditions and account for the Universe's baryon asymmetry. LÄS MER

  4. 3. How Venture Capital Could Use Large Language Models to Screen Sustainability Impact Startups

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Lunds universitet/Miljö- och energisystem

    Författare :Måns Vilhelm Tivenius; Karl-Gustav Elf; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Large Language Models; Venture Capital; Impact Investing; Prompt Engineering; GPT-4; ChatGPT; Impact; Sustainability; Artificial Intelligence; Startup success; Impact startup; Impact measurement; Screening; AI for good; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : This study investigates the potential of large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, to aid venture capitalists in the screening of startups that maximize sustainability impact. To determine the scope that maximizes impact for venture capitalists' and to identify effective screening criteria, the study utilized theoretical research and interviews. LÄS MER

  5. 4. “well for starters this isnt the mona lisa” : Virtuella reproduktioner av verkliga konstverk på museet i Animal Crossing: New Horizons

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för ABM, digitala kulturer samt förlags- och bokmarknadskunskap

    Författare :Henric Wollmér-Persson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :museums; virtual museums; virtual exhibitions; Animal Crossing; Animal Crossing: New Horizons; museums in video games; art in video games; go-along; virtual ethnography; authenticity; authenticity in artworks; cultural capital; the imaginary museum; Cultural Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis I conduct a study on the real-world artworks exhibited in the museum in the Nintendo Switch game Animal Crossing: New Horizons. The in-game museum features an art exhibition consisting of virtual recreations of 43 different artworks from the 19th century all the way back to ancient times. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Formula Student Car Stability

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Författare :Oliver Belfiore; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Racing; Car; Vehicle; dynamics; vehicle dynamics; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the impact of varying passive components on the stability of a Formula Student race car. The study was conducted using a 7-post model and a lateral model, both of which were derived using Lagrangian methods and state-space modelling techniques. These models were then validated and adjusted using logged data. LÄS MER
