Why You Should Care About This War Over the Future of Money

gizmodo.com Luc Olinga 2025-08-23 02:25:28

The crypto world is buzzing. If you ask a true believer, they’ll say this is just the beginning of a financial revolution. Ask a skeptic, and they’ll swear we’re watching a bubble inflate in real time, one that could pop at any second. This entire debate is now playing out in a public showdown between two of the biggest names in finance. Michael Saylor and Jim Chanos are two men with very different visions of the future, and they’re now in open combat on X (formerly Twitter). Saylor, the billi

In the middle of March 1931, Virginia Woolf wrote a polite letter to a woman sixteen years her junior. The recipient, a feminist writer named Winifred Holtby, was embarking on a book-length study of Woolf’s work. ‘I should much prefer that the book should be, as you say written impersonally, from material in the British Museum,’ Woolf wrote. ‘My feeling is that when people are alive, so much personality is bound to creep in, that it is better for the critic to keep aloof as far as possible.’ By

As artificial intelligence ruins the economy and takes over the world, Google is quietly working to change the advertising game in a mind-bending way. As Semafor reports, AI has so utterly altered the way search engine advertising works that Google is now being forced to rewrite the script it forged itself.

Joe Maring / Android Authority At Google I/O 2024, Google introduced the world to “Ask Photos.” It was a new Gemini-powered search experience for Google Photos that would enable you to use natural language to easily find pictures in your library.

Chase Sapphire Reserve Launches New $250 Apple Perk. I’m Not Falling for It

Chase/CNET The Chase Sapphire Reserve®* was updated earlier this week and now includes a number of new annual credits and other features, including an Apple Plus and Apple Music membership, valued at $250 annually (ends June 22, 2027). Chase also upped the card's annual fee. It now costs $795 annually, so you'll have to do more legwork to get enough value from the card to cover the cost.
