Here’s this week’s list of rapidly trending topics, insights and analysis.

Topic #1

Few Shot Prompting

Few Shot Prompting is a framework designed to improve the quality of LLM responses.

LLMs can struggle to generate outputs on previously-unseen data.

Few shot prompting attempts to solve this problem by providing a number of tangible examples alongside each prompt.

For instance, if a user wants an AI to write a professional cover letter, they might show it three different real-life samples. The LLM will then use these specific examples to learn how to write similar cover letters effectively.

What's Next

Few shot prompting is part of the LLM Optimization Techniques meta trend.

We’re seeing a growing number of techniques and approaches designed to improve LLM training, prompting and output quality.

Examples of trends in this area include synthetic data, chain of thought prompting, data augmentation, and retrieval augmented generation.

Topic #2

Recovery Shoes

Recovery shoes are a type of specialty footwear designed to be worn post-workout.

These shoes typically have a generously cushioned footbed and a supportive structure that relieves pressure on joints, reduces strain on tendons, and improves blood flow to the feet.

Many recovery shoes take the form of sandals and are made to be worn around the house.

One popular recovery shoe product brings in approximately $1.4M/month on Amazon.

What's Next

Recovery shoes are part of the Foot Health Products meta trend.

Examples of trending foot recovery products include:

“Barefoot” or “minimalist” shoes have a minimal or zero-drop sole with a wide, flexible toe box.

Toe spacers are placed between the toes in order to properly align them and stretch the small muscles that surround the toes.

Compression boots are fabric sleeves that encapsulate the entire leg to promote recovery.

Topic #3

Laptop Screen Extender

Laptop screen extenders are external monitors that connect to a laptop in order to increase screen real estate.

Once connected, users can configure their laptops to extend the desktop across all screens.

In practical terms, this means that windows and applications can be moved between the laptop screen and the external monitors.

These extenders are often designed to be highly portable, which is why they’re becoming popular among digital nomads.

A popular laptop screen extender generates approximately $30.5K/month on Amazon.

What's Next

Laptop screen extenders are part of the Digital Nomad Products meta trend.

There are currently an estimated 35 million digital nomads worldwide (a 2x increase over the last two years).

Here are a few examples of products trending among digital nomads:

Travel eSims allow users to access local networks without physically swapping out SIM cards or paying expensive roaming fees.

Laptop power banks are portable battery packs designed to provide extra power to a laptop when users don't have access to a power outlet.

Universal travel adapters are compact devices that let users plug their electronic devices into power outlets in different countries worldwide.

Topic #4

Flat Back Earrings

Flat-back earrings have a flat surface that rests against the skin when worn.

This flat backing eliminates the irritation or discomfort that can occur when curved or pointed earrings press against the skin.

TikTok videos about these earrings have garnered more than 24 million views to date.

One popular pair of flat-back earrings brings in approximately $108K/month on Amazon.

What's Next

Flat-back earrings are part of the Social Media-First Jewelry meta trend.

Jewelry enthusiasts are turning to social media to share their favorite pieces.

For example, there are over 85K videos with the #jewelrytok tag on TikTok alone.

This is driving demand for unique jewelry pieces designed to stand out on social media.

Here are examples of trending jewelry categories:

Permanent jewelry is non-removable due to the absence of a traditional clasp.

Chunky gold jewelry refers to very thick jewelry made from gold or gold plating.

Clover bracelets feature a four-leaf clover charm as their focal point.
