Why Meta decided to finally embrace the iPad

Meta has spent 15 years shunning the iPad. Now, it seems they’re finally ready to embrace the tablet lovers. 

WhatsApp users can finally text from the big screen. On Tuesday, Meta announced that the popular messaging app is finally available on iPadOS devices, including expanded features for multitasking. Meanwhile, reports indicate that Meta is finally building Instagram for the iPad as well. 

It’s a curious time to embrace tablets. While still a high-volume sa

AI influencers are shaping Gen Z’s shopping habits

According to new research from Whop, a marketplace for digital products, one in three Gen Z consumers now make purchasing decisions based on recommendations from AI-generated influencers. 

The report gathered survey data from 2,001 Americans ages 12 to 27 and found the trend particularly strong among college-age consumers. Nearly half of 19- to 21-year-olds follow AI influencers, with 47% of young men following these accounts, compared with less than 40% of young women.

Starship: SpaceX na rozcestí mezi hvězdnou revolucí a drahým ohňostrojem

Program Starship společnosti SpaceX, ten velký sen Elona Muska o kolonizaci Marsu a revoluci v kosmické dopravě, se nachází v bodě, kde se potlesk nad technickou smělostí mísí s nervózním pokašláváním nad sérií velkolepých explozí a protahujícím se vývojem. http://www.osel.cz/14092-starship-spacex-na-rozcesti-mezi-hvezdnou-revoluci-a-drahym-ohnostrojem.html

Big banks eye cautious entry into crypto as Trump-era regulators ease path

Big U.S. banks are holding internal discussions about expanding into cryptocurrencies as they get stronger endorsements from regulators, but initial steps will be tentative, centering on pilot programs, partnerships or limited crypto trading, according to four industry executives. Wall Street giants that had been largely blocked from many crypto activities by strict regulations are poised to grow quickly.

Yet the biggest lenders are still hesitant to be the first among rivals to ex

This new browser could change everything you know about bookmarks 

I can tell you the exact moment when a new browser called Deta Surf clicked for me.

I was getting a demo from Deta cofounder Max Eusterbrock, and he showed me how Surf can take screenshots of web pages and add them to a digital pinboard. But unlike a standard screenshot, this one contained a link to jump back to the web page it came from, and its content was searchable from Surf’s menu system.

Aha, I thought. Too often, I’ll open dozens of tab

Fantasy and romance writers address AI controversies after readers discover prompts in published books

Two romantasy authors have publicly defended their use of artificial intelligence after being caught with AI-generated prompts left in their published works. While their readers are far from impressed, the writers insist that it does not take away from their craft.

Excerpts from novels published by K.C. Crowne and Lena McDonald have been spreading across Reddit, Goodreads, and Bluesky, after readers discovered revision notes that read like ChatGPT and cues that reference the style

Elon Musk’s SpaceX hits another setback as Starship demo ends in explosion

Dávná DNA odhalila následky bezohledné etnické čistky ve Španělsku

Filip III. Španělský v roce 1609 spustil etnickou čistku morisků, potomků muslimů na Pyrenejském poloostrově, kteří byli po pádu Granady přinuceni přestoupit ke křesťanství. Zatímco vojenský pád muslimů se na genech lidí pohřbených ve Španělsku téměř neprojevil, etnická čistka téměř vymazala DNA severoafrického původu v tehdejším Španělsku. http://www.osel.cz/14088-davna-dna-odhalila-nasledky-bezohledne-etnicke-cistky-ve-spanelsku.html

Have social media platforms rolled back the promises they made after George Floyd’s death?

Five years ago, George Floyd was murdered by a Minneapolis police officer after Floyd was suspected of using a counterfeit $20 bill. His death ignited a series of protests in the United States that gave new energy to the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, and which seemed—at the time—to reshape society, online and offline.

As the protests that were born out of Floyd’s death reached their zenith in June 2020, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg

This smart new internet speed test blows Ookla out of the water

These days, our tech experiences are all about speed—and our expectations for instant action are actually kinda insane.
