The age of AI empires
“AI HAS long ceased to be just technology; it is now infrastructure,” I said in a recent talk. “If it’s so important, why isn’t it making money?” somebody asked. Fair question. On paper, the investment in AI looks irrational. Billions are going in, with no clear profits coming out. Even Meta’s Reality Labs lost nearly $20bn last year alone. So I told them a story. There was a time when railways looked like a terrible investment. Massive costs and slow returns. If you judged them by early balance...

Polymarket took down wagers tied to rescue of downed Air Force officer
A Democratic congressman had harsh criticism for Polymarket for allowing users to bet on the date the United States would confirm the rescue of Air Force service members shot down over Iran. In a social media post on Friday, Representative Seth Moulton wrote, “They could be your neighbor, a friend, a family member. And people are betting on whether or not they’ll be saved. This is DISGUSTING.” (President Donald Trump announced early Sunday that the second service member, a weapons system o...
Copilot is ‘for entertainment purposes only,’ according to Microsoft’s terms of service
AI skeptics aren’t the only ones warning users not to unthinkingly trust models’ outputs — that’s what the AI companies say themselves in their terms of service.

Gemma 4 and Gemini: Two Paths Shaping Google’s AI Strategy
Fez– In the expanding universe of artificial intelligence, Google is quietly drawing a sharper line between two philosophies: closed, fully integrated AI products, and open, developer-first models. Its latest release, Gemma 4, sits firmly in the second category, and signals a broader shift in how AI may be built, deployed, and controlled. Gemma 4 is not designed as a consumer-facing assistant in the way many have come to expect from AI tools. Instead, it is a lightweight, open model built to ru...
