Why I'm all-in on Zen Browser

A few years ago, I moved to Arc as my default browser. I felt like everything was immediately upgraded: finally, a web browser worked how I needed it to. The interface got out of the way; it was superpowered with keyboard shortcuts that just made sense (a bit like other professional tools like Superhuman); and its profiles feature allowed me to fully sandbox my work activity away from my personal activity. It’s how I want a browser to work. Unfortunately, it didn’t live up to the goals its vend

Tesla Making Yet Another Desperate Move in Europe

Tesla has been struggling in Europe, where its sales are down across the continent. In the United Kingdom, the company’s sales reportedly dropped 60 percent last month. With those cratering numbers, the EV firm appears to have made another, shall we say, incredibly generous offer to locals, as the company continues to combat lagging sales.

Should AI flatter us, fix us, or just inform us?

technologyreview.com James O'Donnell 2025-11-16 16:00:00

Or fix us, which requires us to believe AI can be a therapist despite the evidence to the contrary? Or should it inform us with cold, to-the-point responses that may leave users bored and less likely to stay engaged? It’s safe to say the company has failed to pick a lane.
