Proton Sheets Just Dropped: Is This the End of Google’s Data Monopoly?
•
We finally have a spreadsheet tool that doesn’t read your financial projections to train an AI. The era of “free” software usually comes with a hidden price tag: your data.

•
Let’s be honest: keeping up with technology is exhausting. It feels like just when you finally figured out what “the cloud” was, everyone started talking about “the metaverse.” Now, you can’t read a headline without seeing “Generative AI,” “Quantum,” or “Web3.” It’s a non-stop barrage of buzzwords, and most of them feel abstract, over-hyped, or just……

The AI Energy Crisis: Why Google is Making a High-Stakes Bet on Carbon-Captured Natural Gas
•
It’s a pragmatic solution for 24/7 power. But is it truly “clean”? Let’s be honest for a second.

•
Friends, let’s be honest. For the past year, AI video has felt a bit like watching a silent film. We’ve been stunned by the visuals, watching silent, ghostly clips of things that never happened. It was magic, no doubt. But it was also… quiet. Muted. It lacked the soul and grit that sound brings to a…

Sora’s Hollywood Reckoning: Inside OpenAI’s Scramble to Build Guardrails
•
Let’s be honest. When OpenAI first dropped the initial demos for its text-to-video model, Sora, the collective jaw of the internet hit the floor. We saw impossibly realistic clips of stylish women walking down Tokyo streets, wooly mammoths charging through snow, and cinematic space odysseys—all conjured from a simple text prompt. It felt like…
