It’s not the first time the company has experimented with giving the average Joe the ability to send AI robocalls, but it is much more robust than previous outings. Rolling out today, the […]

Although OpenAI is most famous for creating ChatGPT, I’ve been mostly focused on their efforts with AI video generation. Sora, the company’s short-form AI video generator, is already tricking people across social media with hyperrealistic AI slop. I fear we’ve already reached a point where it’s too difficult to trust that what you seen on […]

I’m a former Android-Mac hybrid user. Laugh all you want—we exist. I enjoy having a polished operating system on my computer and an endlessly hackable operating system on my phone, and the combination of Mac and Android gave me all of that.
