It's not that hard to synthesize how business leadership would both optimize for the present of the pre-AI era while also continually refining their strategy as AI became clearer on the horizon. You're jumping through hoops when t

Possibly, but it makes more sense when viewed through the lens of "Google is an advertising company" rather than a search company. Also, it's not like Google went on autopilot and pursued nothing in recent years. Clearly th

Thanks, but just to confirm, there is a free tier of OpenProject as well as a paid tier with more features. This is often referred to as "open core." I'm not complaining, as the free tier seems feature rich by itself. Just wa
