techcrunch.com Ivan Mehta 2025-11-04 04:00:00

With this feature, Spotify wants users to do more within the app while also keeping the history of shared content, so users don’t have to search for a song. Messages are only one-on-one, and you can only start a chat with someone with whom you have previously shared content. Th

wired.com Will Knight 2025-11-04 05:00:00

Economists at Stanford University have found the strongest evidence yet that artificial intelligence is starting to eliminate certain jobs. But the story isn’t that simple: While younger workers are being replaced by AI in some industries, more experienced workers are seeing new opportunities emerge. Erik Brynjolfsson, a professor at Stanford University, Ruyu Chen, a research scientist, and Bharat Chandar, a postgraduate student, examined data from ADP, the largest payroll provider in the US, f

Donald Trump was all over the place during two press conferences at the White House on Monday, where he rambled about his fascist vision for the country.

The Object at the Center of Jupiter Is So Strange That It Defies Comprehension

The core of Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, has long been a source of mystery for astronomers: an object so unfathomably dense and hot that it defies comprehension. Conventional theories have suggested for years that the gas giant's behemoth interior was formed following an enormous collision with an early planet.
