Deep dives
Perplexity AI Introduces Ads, Challenging User Experience
Perplexity AI, a search engine rivaling Google, surprised users by introducing ads despite promoting an ad-free user experience. Many users who are fed up with Google's ad inundation threaten to cancel subscriptions. The move raises questions about balancing revenue generation with user experience and the impact on user adoption. Google's potential response to this shift may affect competition in the AI search engine space.
Apple and Google Collaboration for AI Integration
Apple's possible collaboration with Google to incorporate Google's AI technology Gemini into iPhones signifies Apple's lag in AI development. This unexpected partnership reflects a history of cooperative efforts between the tech giants. While initially surprising, the move aligns with their long-standing strategic collaboration on various tech products and services.

States like California, New York, and Georgia, with existing AI legislation focus, may follow suit to safeguard artists. SAG-AFTRA's contract further emphasizes the need for consent when using actors' voices to generate AI versions, indicating a broader industry shift towards protecting creative assets.
