Nvidia, on Wednesday, posted record Q4 revenue of $22 billion, boasting a 265% increase from the same quarter the prior year and earnings that blew past expectations. Yet, in the immediate aftermath of those earnings, the stock fell 3% in the after-hours market.
That dip didn’t last, it’s worth noting. And it’s less a commentary on Nvidia’s earnings and more one about the extraordinarily high expectations investors have for the artificial intelligence mar

Google revives its open-source game with Gemma models
Google announced today a set of new large language models, collectively called “Gemma,” and a return to the practice of releasing new research into the open-source ecosystem. The new models w
Reddit is seemingly leaning further into its community of users as it closes in on its public offering. The Wall Street Journal reports that the social media site plans to reserve an undetermined number of its IPO shares for its most active users when it IPOs next month. While the number is not yet set, the Journal said it is “a big chunk” of the offering.
Some 75,000 power-users of the site will reportedly be able to buy shares at the IPO price, a privilege thatȁ
Ask Google’s generative AI tool Gemini to create images of American revolutionary war soldiers and it might present you with a Black woman, an Asian man and a Native American woman wearing George Washington’s bluecoats.
That diversity has gotten some people, including Frank J. Fleming, a former computer engineer and writer for the Babylon Bee, really mad. Fleming has tweeted a series of his increasingly frustrated interactions with Google as he tries to get it to portr
If your mental picture of Montana includes snow-capped mountain peaks, a small town with a river running through it, or vast stretches of ranch land, you’ll find them all in Dillon, a small ranching community about 115 miles southwest of Bozeman. What may surprise here is a sprawling Patagonia store, one of only six outlets for the clothing company. The location is perhaps more fitting than meets the eye: Yvon Chouinard started Patagonia by making pitons for rock climbing from an old h
Since the day the iPhone first went on sale, it’s come with Apple’s apps for checking the weather and monitoring stock prices. Now the company is finally getting around to offering an app that delivers timely information of a different sort with at least as much mass appeal: sports scores.

Ask ChatGPT to answer a question and you’re likely not expecting it to reply “— and it is” over and over. Nor are you likely to have much patience if it starts apologizing for replying in gibberish, saying “the cogs en la tecla might get a bit whimsical.” Yet both instances have occurred in the last 24 hours, leaving users of the chatbot befuddled and asking what the hell is going on.
On X and Reddit, users are scratching their heads as the
Stocks are opening lower on Wall Street as weakness in technology companies continues to drag on the market. The S&P 500 was off 0.3% in the early going Wednesday. The tech-heavy Nasdaq gave up 0.5% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 153 points, or 0.4%. Palo Alto Networks was a big loser. The network security company lost a quarter of its value after giving forecasts for future billings that came in well below what analysts were looking for. Amazon rose following an announcement th
