Where will Tim Cook be on the Thursday before the iPhone 17 event? Back at the White House, it seems. The Apple CEO gifted President Trump a big chunk of 24k gold with a piece of glass in August after announcing plans to make all iPhone glass in Kentucky. 29 days later, their next meeting will focus on AI, according to The Hill: President Trump on Thursday will host two dozen high-profile tech and business leaders for the first event in the newly renovated White House Rose Garden, including M

Non-Obviously Great Startups

The dominant metaphor for a successful startup these days is the rocketship.

Who Have Marvel’s Avengers Become?

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-10-23 15:00:27

Every mainstream comic book character is defined by their pre- and post-adaptation life. After they’re brought to life in film or TV, the change becomes notable, and nowhere is it more apparent than with the Avengers. They’ve always been a key superhero team, but they were elevated to a higher position thanks to the MCU and Marvel not owning fellow high-profile teams, the X-Men and Fantastic Four, and actively working to downplay them throughout comics and other media.

Who Owns ‘Telepathy’?

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-10-23 15:10:12

Elon Musk’s neural implant startup Neuralink has been trying to trademark two product names: Telepathy and Telekinesis. Musk has previously claimed that his company will be able to give people “superpowers,” so the desire to take ownership over these special abilities makes sense. Unfortunately for Neuralink, patent applications for Telepathy and Telekinesis have already been filed by a different business.
