Thought this was interesting. Across 160 teams of researchers, just about all failed to make good life outcome predictions on things like GPA, evictions, layoffs, and others. Data followed 4.5k families across 15 years, with 13k features (varied over time). Haven't looked at it directly yet, but will be turning the docs and data inside out... In the meantime, authors claim this as showing the limits of ML. Oh, and it's published in PNAS, so you know there's some big publication energy there.

I made a comic book for my team with each of them represented as superheroes with their powers based on their contributions using Dall-E. Yes, I spent too much time on this. And got them a pen and a notepad with their characters printed on them.
Unless you know them well, just do cash/gift card
LOL YES QUEEN
That’s so nice. I’ve never gotten a Christmas gift from JL or CM. A gift card is nice enough IMO.
Get each one a sticker pack alluding to individual accomplishments and stuff they like. Cheap, ships fast, and does a lot for team culture. It's kinda like corporate directory badges, but more personal. Everyone likes getting accolades.
If you’re not joking, it seems like you’re adding undue pressure to your minions. If they think the stickers are tacky, they’d still feel compelled to show face to give their superior the impression they appreciate the gift. If they like the sticker, then it’s a win win
Half finger gloves to keep their hands warm while they work in the office through the holidays.
