What’s the benefit for websites to allow OpenAI/Microsoft to scrape and republish all their content without sending traffic back to them? It seems like these type of “search engines” will just get blocked in the short term. Longer term

I’m waiting for the point in time when content platforms no longer try to downplay their generated content but instead simply embrace it and even go as far as excluding human only content. Like for example a TikTok, but all the videos are g

I’m not sure what the supposed takeaway of this article is. I guess the author is pushing debt at the end of the article? Regardless, trying to look at investing through the lens of “it’s either ownership or debt” is a very narrow view of a

Oculus devices and AVP are presently in different categories from a cost perspective, but my understanding is the two companies were chasing after the same eventual market. Apple intended (intends?) on releasing a lower end device. Arguably
