It was a big week in the world of AI. Both Google and OpenAI released major updates. You know I’ve got your back. I cut through their marketing-speak to decipher what these updates actually mean for you and me.Â
Google’s AI, Gemini 1.5 Pro, will handle tons of data. Need to summarize 1,500 pages of text? No problem. It’s pretty nuts.
When I’m booking air travel, it seems like the price goes up with every click. By the time I pay to check a bag or two, that “great deal” isn’t looking so, well, great.Â

How much cryptocurrency MIT-educated brothers swiped in just 12 seconds. Clever, except Anton, 24, and James, 28, just got arrested for their 2023 ethereum heist. They studied computer science and math. Now they’ll have plenty of time to calculate the years they could spend in jail.
Play video games at least one hour per week in the U.S. The majorities of Gen Alpha (79%), Gen Z (76%) and millennials (65%) game. Roughly 53% of Gen X games, while 47% of baby boomers play, too. Do you? I don’t.
Mark Zuckerberg celebrated turning 40 on his new $300 million superyacht. The 387-foot-long vessel, “Launchpad,” is the big boat. A smaller yacht behind it carries his staff and toys. All this and he still can’t figure out how young girls won’t get DM’d by creeps on Instagram.
For an Australian doc who received a terminal diagnosis. Richard Scolyer is alive thanks to the revolutionary treatment he created. Amazing, right?
From Tesla is already sold out. Remember when Elon accidentally broke the window of a Cybertruck on stage? Yeah, it’s modeled after the same sledgehammer. They say it’s for gym use or display purposes only.
How well a new brain implant can “decode” your inner monologue (aka read your thoughts). Sounds creepy, but for people who lose their ability to speak, it’s a huge step towards helping them communicate.
