Technically true but till date all the evidence about people weaning off it is against it. The social media addiction has become worse over the years and the companies serving this are valued at trillions. So what you say is technically tru

Ford’s EV line up is bad, very bland. Not sure how they are expecting to drum up excitement in their customers. EVs are not and never will be purchased like a regular gas car. They are still a second car for commute and for people with a li

Underrated? He is properly rated in the sense that he owns 10s of billions even though he singlehandedly killed the windows smartphone and tablet business and also killed Nokia. Granted that apple killed them but with Microsoft’s resources

No, you trust the HW and so starting with secure boot you can get measurements cryptographically vouched for. That you can prove and verify. So at some point you have no option but to trust something/someone

This is an interesting idea. However what does open hardware mean? How can you prove that the design or architecture that was “opened” is actually what was built? What does the attestation even mean in this scenario?

Moving to a whole new architecture is really really hard, no? The operating systems and applications all need to be ported. Just because Qualcomm cannot be friends with arm, every single Qualcomm customer from google to some custom device m

Counterpoint, the pandering to the market has better stock price appreciation :) Also I am sure Adobe is doing both. They released an OpenAI competitor recently

What does it mean for OpenAI? As open source models improve, OpenAI needs to keep on improving their models to stay ahead of them. Over time though, if it hasn’t already happeened, the advantages of OpenAI will not matter to most. Will Open

I think the government is late to the game in this instance. I would have been in the “break it up” camp until this year. I see google’s search monopoly going away in the next few years with GenAI.

I don’t think prices came down at all though. May be lowering reprises would increase demand but they don’t want to, or rather cannot to keep the brand premium. So it’s not news

Unknowingly you made the perfect argument against the Vision Pro. What you described is a VR experience which is precisely what apple set out not to do. They wanted an MR device and MR experiences. So if an immersive experience is what you

This is Texas so I am inclined to think the judge is a political hack installed by someone to issue judgements that are paid for. As much as I don’t want to, after seeing the recent Supreme Court and other rulings, this is the first thought

This isn’t new is it? Every startup in the last decade plus existed to slurp user data one way or another. User data accumulation is the single most popular value proposition for startups and what drove funding. In that sense AI is not new,

Yeah, it's not a consumer win, more a strategically good decision for google. Pichai seems to not do that at all these days.

Makes sense. Chromecast is built into most tvs. That way they can eliminate the hardware costs and focus fully on software. The tv manufacturers will be happy to work with them as they, hopefully, will get a share of the ad revenue too. Als

FHE is cool but I wonder how many use cases it actually fits. Don’t get me wrong, it gives better security guarantees for the end user but do they really care if the organization makes a promise about a secure execution environment in the c

This is exactly the kind of bets the government should make. However I was expecting it to be a research project not a startup. If they already have a product what do they need the funding for? I mean, they already know if it works or not.

I think this has some value potentially now, but they should not use “pipes” to describe it. Yahoo pipes is dead and there is no point associating one self with that brand anymore. The concept is easy enough to explain without using that wo

A large percentage of the population is doing the exact opposite of what good science is telling them. I feel like it's not just the economy but general critical thinking and education of folks has split into a K curve.
