Deep dives
Apple and Google Teaming up in AI Space
Apple and Google are reportedly collaborating on AI technologies, with Apple considering licensing Google's Gemini AI for its devices. This partnership would benefit Apple by entering the generative AI space, where it has been less active recently, and Google by enhancing its position in AI and improving its industry reputation.
Supreme Court Case on Government Pressure and Social Media
A case before the Supreme Court discusses whether government pressure on social media platforms to remove misleading content constitutes illegal censorship. The case originated from lawsuits by Republican states and social media users accusing the Biden administration of suppressing certain views and influencing platform content. Justices expressed varying opinions on the level of government influence that qualifies as free speech violations.
Austin's Housing Market Trends and Challenges
Austin, once a thriving housing market, is experiencing significant declines in home prices and rents, surpassing other metro areas in the US in these drops. The market's decline can be attributed to an increase in apartment construction, leading to a surplus and softening demand. While this shift may signal a more affordable housing market, it also hints at potential challenges faced by the city in maintaining its growth and attractiveness.
Episode 282: Neal and Toby dive into the potential mega deal between Apple and Google where Gemini could supercharge future iPhones. Then, can the federal government crackdown on social media companies to protect its users? The Supreme Court’s decision could impact the 1st Amendment. Next, Austin, the once hot housing market from the pandemic-era boom, is cooling off. Also, the 81-year old fabrics company, Joann, is filing bankruptcy while Sports Illustrated may have found a second life. Meanwhile, MrBeast wants to giveaway the largest game show prize in history in his new show with Amazon Prime Video. Lastly, tense from all the talk of AI taking over human jobs?
