"Human Creativity is Inspired by Abstract Connections That AI Cannot Intuitively Make"
The Orangeblowfish Creative Agency Founder to Join Dynamic Panel at Design Shanghai 2025
SHANGHAI, May 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Orangeblowfish creative agency Founder Siu Tang has been invited to share his thoughts on AI and creativity at 'Design for Humanity', the Design Shanghai Global Design Conference on June 4-7, 2025. Asia's leading international design event, in its 12th year, is being hosted at Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center and is expected to attract around 80,000 visitors. This year's four-day focus is on how design can change the world for the better and how creatives can redesign their futures as technology advances.
Based in Shanghai, Siu is an award-winning creative brand alchemist, transforming branding potential for high-profile names in retail, hospitality, and lifestyle industries in China and Asia-Pacific. On the third day of Design Shanghai, he will reveal his insights and opinions in what promises to be an electric panel presentation and discussion: The Big Idea: Human vs Machine Creativity: The Future of Human Creativity in the Artificially Intelligent Age.
The panel will be chaired by Aidan Walker, Design Shanghai Conference Director, who is enthusiastically including Siu as a dynamic creative voice. 'Design Shanghai in 2025 is about looking beyond what design can achieve in the future and exploring how. Siu Tang brings dynamic originality to the world of branding concepts at The Orangeblowfish. His ideas on whether human creativity could be threatened by AI is undoubtedly going to be as bold and exciting as his design approach.'
Leading the topic will be Iris Pan, Lead Designer, Amazon XR & AI Shopping. Other contributors sharing the stage alongside Siu include Mo Zheng, Founder and Chief Architect, AntiStatics; Lecturer, Weitzman School of Design, University of Pennsylvania; Craig Miller, Partner and Head of Heatherwick Studio China; and Budiman Ong, Co-Founder of Jia CURATED and Ong Cen Kuang.
A Peak Performance Influencer and PRovoke APAC Innovator, Siu's combines brand strategy methodology with creativity, art, and design to create connections and weave brand stories that enrich. The Orangeblowfish embraces 'creativity unleashed' through original concepts.
Siu believes a crucial aspect differentiates human and AI creativity. 'As humans, we have an unfathomable ability to create abstract connections that resonate,' he highlights. 'As a designer, this is intrinsic in creating narratives which, even when they haven't been imagined before, somehow make sense in a way that is not always consciously understood. This is fundamental to the limits of AI right now, and as it evolves, so might we.'
Siu will be available for interviews and/or provide quotes on June 6, 2025, following his afternoon panel appearance. For more information, logos, and photos, or to arrange an interview please get in touch via heya@theorangeblowfish.com.

The female rival who Barbara Walters secretly hated because she was jealous of her talent and beauty
Barbara Walters secretly hated a female rival during their time together at ABC, an ex-TV producer has revealed. A new documentary about Walters claims she felt 'betrayed' by the arrival of Diane Sawyer at the network in the early 1990s. An anonymous staffer said Walters viewed the younger Sawyer as a 'threat' and 'secretly resented' her for years. The hatred stemmed from Sawyer's journalism and good-looks, sources said, with a former producer explaining, 'Barbara saw herself as someone who had helped elevate ABC News to a pinnacle. 'And that had her feeling betrayed by Diane's arrival in the '90s.' Another producer dished: 'Barbara watched Diane wearily because she was really in the same altitude as Barbara. Other correspondents were not a threat.' The anonymous staffer further revealed how 'Barbara secretly resented Diane for being younger,' two-and-a-half years after the 20/20 host's passing at age 93. 'Barbara did not know why Diane was hired to start a new news magazine within our home of ABC to compete with 20/20,' the first source further noted, referring to Sawyer, 79, and Sam Donaldson's since-cancelled but long-successful Primetime. 'There was a lot of talk about how that being a different 20/20, a better 20/20, a more alive 20/20 and more energetic 20/20,' the source said. '[They were] pitted against each other - which was either great management or diabolical.' The source recalled Sawyer being "unhappy" about the situation. The film, Barbara Walters: Tell Me Everything, aired at Tribeca Film Festival on Thursday saw the claims aired for the first time. It also featured a voiceover from the late Walters denying ever feuding with Sawyer. 'I don't think Diane Sawyer and I had a feud,' Walters said. 'I think people know that we were after the same [interview] gets.' Another anonymous ABC staffer did insist there was tension, describing two distinct camps. 'They were on different floors. It was like North Korea and South Korea,' he said. '[N]o members of our staffs talked to each other about what they were working on. It was just a competitive space to live in.' The competition, in one case, stemmed from the two both attempting to interview Katharine Hepburn in the late 80s - a bout a then-green Sawyer won. But Walters - as Sawyers has previously hinted - attempted to block it, staffers said. 'If I showed up on Mars, they would have a note there with the Barbara Walters stationary that is just requesting an interview with anybody who might happen to show,' Sawyer jokes in a section of the film. A female friend of Walters added: 'She was certainly dogged by Diane's very existence. She often said, "Diane was the perfect woman." 'She used the word[s] "a blonde goddess,"' the source continued. 'This was an ideal woman and Barbara couldn't compete with that.' While the longtime ABC News legend could always 'work harder,' she knew 'she couldn't compete with that," the person recalled. 'The blonde goddess, she would say.' Another person who worked with Walters said Sawyer's rise saw Walters regress. Walters spent 38 years at ABC, but fought to be taken seriously in the decades before during her own meteoric rise after starting her career at NBC in the 60s. 'She couldn't tolerate having Diane Sawyer rise in what she saw as a direct challenge to what she had accomplished,' the source said. 'What a sadness. 'I think it tore into all of those parts of herself where she felt as a child and she was an outsider,' they added. 'In some bizarre way, Diane made her feel all of those insecurities all over again.' Walters, meanwhile, recently made headlines - posthumously - after a former colleague criticized her at-times abrupt interview style. 'Some of her interviews haven't aged well,' former ABC correspondent Cynthia McFadden told People Magazine Wednesday, likely recalling notorious moments like the one in 1976 Walters asked Barbra Streisand why she hadn't gotten a nose job. In 2011, the aging anchor told the Kardashians: 'You don't act, you don't sing, you don't dance, you don't have any -forgive me - talent.' The new film is set to stream on Hulu on June 23. Walters retired from ABC in 2014. Sawyer went of the air full-time the same year. Presently, she works for ABC News producing documentaries and interview specials.

Will National League West Be Arms Race At Trade Deadline?
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. As the dog days of summer heat up, the National League West continues to be the best division race in baseball, with three teams at the top, separated by two games as of Thursday. The Los Angeles Dodgers lead the pack, but both the San Francisco Giants and the San Diego Padres are on their tail. While slightly more spaced out, the Arizona Diamondbacks could catch fire and be in the mix as well. There is only one certainty: The Colorado Rockies will not be in the race this season. SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 09: Will Smith #16 and Tanner Scott #66 of the Los Angeles Dodgers celebrate after defeating the San Diego Padres 8-7 in a game at Petco Park on June 09,... SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA - JUNE 09: Will Smith #16 and Tanner Scott #66 of the Los Angeles Dodgers celebrate after defeating the San Diego Padres 8-7 in a game at Petco Park on June 09, 2025 in San Diego, California More Photo by Sean M. Haffey/Getty Images The Dodgers, Padres, and Giants will all be major players in the trade market, and while the Diamondbacks' path is foggy, the trio of leaders will be adding at the end of July. The Dodgers are fresh off a World Series victory and are looking to be the first team to win back-to-back titles since the Yankees' dynasty in the late 1990s and early 2000s, when the Bronx Bombers won three straight. The Giants are looking to capture the division title for the first time since 2021 and are keeping pace with the Dodgers, setting up their meeting this weekend as a must-watch for baseball fans. The Giants have a chance to take the division lead, and the Dodgers will be looking to give themselves some breathing room. Should the Padres sweep the Diamondbacks and the Giants best the Dodgers in two of three, the National League West would be all tied up as the trade deadline approaches. All three teams are putting on a show, and with the race so tight, the trio of teams could be fighting for the same prizes when the trade deadline arrives.

Wrexham: Agri-cation CIC networking event a roaring success
It aims to connect people of all ages and backgrounds, enhancing wellbeing and develop skills with agriculture being the main focus. Networking event, June 11, Wrexham (Image: NQ) On Wednesday, June 11 the family farm situated in Bangor-On-Dee hosted the Wrexham Community Business Awards evening, bringing together corporate partners, small organisations and supporters to share the Agri-cation journey. It was a celebration of hard work, community spirit, and genuine impact. Co-founders of the company and parents-of-four Cheryl and Andrew Reeves have been in the industry for over a decade. The farm at Woodcroft, Bangor on Dee (Image: NQ) As well as being a training provider for agriculture, the pair work alongside local dairy farmers, which supports both the dairy industry and the beef sector. The family farm rears calf through an automated feeding system which encourages a natural feed while also monitoring the cattle's overall welfare. The farm is also the home to pets, including cows, goats, rabbits and chickens. It has become a fantastic animal interaction area, aiding people's knowledge in anatomy for animals, as well as their behaviour and food production. Agri-cation event June 11 (Image: NQ) Attendees received a tour of the farm, sampled locally-sourced food and discovered how Cheryl and the team are using farming and the outdoors to boost mental health, wellbeing and build brighter futures. Cheryl said: "We were incredibly proud to showcase our recent achievements, including winning the Next Generation Award and the prestigious British Farming Award for Diversification in 2024. "These recognitions reflect the innovation and heart behind everything we do — especially our commitment to making farming and rural education accessible and inclusive." Wrexham Businesses and Community Awards Networking Event, June 11 (Image: NQ) A highlight of the evening was a powerful talk from Caroline Platt of Platts Agriculture, a valued sponsor and advocate for the charity's work. Cheryl added: "We're also grateful for the support of TIMAC Agro who this year are helping to fund our work with a young person who was previously out of school. Through Agri-cation, he's now thriving in an agricultural role, a real success story in the making." The evening event also saw the introduction of Rob Lawrenson from Canopy Collections, the creative mind behind Agri-cation's outdoor classroom. (Image: NQ) Rob is now running woodworking sessions specifically for women, helping them build skills and confidence in a traditionally male-dominated craft. Blending practical skill-building with wellbeing and connection, the sessions are already proving to be a hit. Cheryl and Andrew extend their gratitude to Groundworks who have been instrumental in supporting their journey. The organisation's funding has helped to deliver multiple courses, including a favourite 'Wellness in Wellies'. It was through that course that the couple met Macy Williams, an inspirational young woman whose courage and talent cannot be ignored. L-R: Macy Williams, Cheryl Reeves and daughter Imogen. (Image: NQ) Macy is non-verbal, lives with seizures, and currently uses a wheelchair. Despite significant challenges, she joined the team at the event to build confidence and reconnect with the world around her. Along the way, Macy also discovered a love and talent for baking and ran her first stall under her brand name 'Dreamy Delights.' Cheryl describes the response to her baked goods and initiative as overwhelming, and says Macy's story highlights the reach going far beyond the individuals impacted by Agri-cation CIC. Agri-cation also hosts activities such as Summer Solstice Yoga and Meditation with Purple Moon Wellbeing, as well as working alongside local businesses to provide produce such as Astley and Stratton Butchers. MOST READ As part of their commitment to wellbeing and inclusion, this Saturday (June 14) will see the team hosting a Menopause Support Group; a six-week programme for women seeking connection and support. Cheryl adds: "At Agri-cation CIC, the field is always open; for learning, healing, growing, and thriving. "Whether you're a child getting their hands dirty on the farm, a woman learning carpentry, a school launching its own food-growing project, or an adult rediscovering self-worth, this is a place where everyone can flourish. "Together, we're not just growing crops, we're growing futures." To stay up to date with their latest courses, events and opportunities, follow Agri-cation on Facebook or get in touch.
