  • Who makes money when AI reads the internet for us?

  • This is only a temporary “problem”. Eventually, ads will be incorporated into the story, and/or advertising companies will include clauses in their contracts. I imagine those clauses will DEMAND that websites include advertising in AI readers or not get paid for any ads they run.

    Think enshittification. AI readers are only ad-free now in order to make them seem like an attractive option, and get people hooked on using them. I bet the numbers have already been calculated and decided on. Once AI readers are used by enough people, the ads will start.

  • The FTC isn’t too happy with Microsoft’s Activision Blizzard layoffs

  • Microsoft reneged on promises it made in court…

    If those promises aren’t legally binding, then why take them into account in the first place?

  • Ford rethinks EV strategy, is working on a smaller, cheaper EV platform

    Jump

  • Most definitely! I was laughing at myself as I wrote it, but posted it anyway.

  • Auto manufacturers are terrible at writing software. For my next new car, I won’t even consider a car that doesn’t include CarPlay. That excludes several US brands, but oh well. That was their idiotic choice.

  • Tucker Carlson interviews Putin and asks Zelenskyy for conversation

    Jump

  • The only way this might be worth Zelenskyy‘s time is if he silently beats Carlson to a bloody pulp.

    The man has REAL problems to deal with. He doesn’t need to be “interviewed” by some fascist bootlicker.

  • Comcast reluctantly agrees to stop its misleading “10G Network” claims

    Jump

  • Jesus. I always hated those ads, but even the industry’s own “self-regulatory” system thought 10G was bullshit.

  • USPS set to buy Canoo electric vans

    Jump

  • That makes much more sense. I should have guessed. Well, thanks for the explanation!

  • SIX? Who the fuck cares?

  • Peer who praised rising temperatures appointed to UK climate crisis committee | Labour says appointment of David Frost shows ‘wacky’ climate views no longer confined to Tory party fringes

  • Since around the time Brexit was seriously proposed, UK politics have become almost as absurd as American politics.

  • Mum urges vaccine push and shares how son died after catching measles

  • Benefit of the doubt

  • Mum urges vaccine push and shares how son died after catching measles

  • The article doesn’t make that clear, so I don’t want to accuse her unfairly.

  • Ukraine drones hit St Petersburg gas terminal in Russia

    Jump

  • They’re hitting targets that far away? Good for them!

  • "Samuel didn't need to die and that's the guilt I carry every day with me," she said.

    It was the anti-vaxxers fault, not hers. I hope one day she’s able to accept that.

  • X is left with advertisers pushing dubious cryptocurrency and AI 'undressing' apps, users say after Musk's outburst

  • Too bad, so sad

  • French farmers threaten to intensify protests over taxes, regulation

  • Don't expect iPhone apps to get cheaper now that you can pay for them outside of the App Store

  • Don’t worry, I didn’t.

  • North Korea will no longer pursue reconciliation with South, Kim Jong Un says

    Jump

  • The Korean War “ended” in 1953. The leadership of North Korea hasn’t managed to get their shit together in over 70 years. You’re right to suggest it’s not all Kim’s fault. It took several generations of general ineptitude, greed, and bullheadedness, while alienating and provoking potential allies. Kim has only continued that “grand” tradition; he didn’t start it. Thank you for the clarification.

  • This is like an obnoxious kid you’re playing baseball with saying “I’m gonna take my bat and ball and go home!”, except it’s not his bat. Or ball. And everyone knows that it’s his fault his home is a shithole.

  • Thank you. I was irritated that I couldn’t find this, but you’ve linked more and better versions anyway.

  • I’ve occasionally seen the black and white American flag with one red line instead of the blue one. Apparently it’s meant to show support for paramedics and firefighters. I wish that one was more popular.
