Yea this is sketchy AF. Not to mention concerning due to its potential implications. Going to be interesting how not only YouTube but other platforms deal with this.
All this will do is piss off creators due to monetization reasons, lead them to complain against YouTube, forcing YouTube to change their monetization process, which will lead to again changing the way videos are made.
And at the end, they will find a way to again shove ads in your face more efficiently.
You get access to news from publishers like WSJ, Wired, LA Times, National Review, as well as magazines from many others. You also get access to news audio which is not bad.
Oh in no way am I saying that Google is a good guy here. I’m sure that if it were up to them, they would keep the current status quo.
They are only doing this due to the pressure they’re getting for their poor track record of supporting their devices. But it is still a step in the direction nonetheless.
That’s a potential solution but the problem is that IT departments in schools are replacing them when they reach EOL in regards to security patches (since testing software isn’t supported). While there may be people interested, I can’t see many wanting to buy chromebooks that won’t be getting security patches and are sluggish.
The amount of Chromebooks that go to waste in K-12 schools is insane. So it is nice to see Google taking action on this, especially since its largest market are schools.
His culture war bullshit is getting so stale (and borderline cringe) at this point. Don’t want a guy chasing companies and institutions for being “woke” and not do shit for their people as president.
He’s not wrong. There’s a lot of instability in the world right now. And it’s times of instability that we tend to see the miscalculations that lead to major power conflict.
As of late, I feel like we are just a few simple mistakes and a series of events away from large scale conflict.
CCC, WPA, or any semblance of the alphabet soup of new deal programs focused on improving the infrastructure and getting people to work is something I believe this country desperately needs. For all the reasons you stated but another important factor; it can help Americans get a new found sense of pride in their country and a sense of community.
I remember reading about how the new deal programs boosted pride among Americans who took part in these programs. A sense of pride that was needed to fight WWII.
While a modern version of this would be amazing, I can’t help but show the same skepticism that has been said here in regards to corruption and issues that would inevitable come up. It’s a totally different political landscape than it was in 1933.
The anti-Biden ad released by the GOP a few weeks ago was much more easier to tell was AI generated. This one is much more subtle that I wouldn’t have known used AI voice generation if it weren’t for the article. Yes it was simply a post on social media, but having it voiced over adds much more to reach its audience imo.
While I have my reservations and own views toward the ethics of the tech, the one thing in always come back to is that it has significantly cut down the time I spent on tasks in my job and allows me to focus on things that will help me grow and improve.
It’ll sell it’s fair share but the delayed launch is going to really hurt it it’s potential sales numbers. In the span of their initial release date and ‘24, ev pickups from Ford, Rivian, and GM have released.
They could have been one of the first and taken the hype
School districts are quick to buy Chromebooks and go "1:1", but cheap out on IT and cybersecurity.

Im already finding it a hard sell for my News+ sub. This price increase may just lead me to cancel at this point.

Agreed. This and Googles announcement last month of supporting new chromebooks for 10 years is a step in the right direction.

It won’t just be electric cars, it’ll be all new model cars from manufacturing companies. At least until ICE is phased out.
I just kept thinking of Abode Security

This is concerning.

Not to mentioned the better work/life balance.

Very curious to see the price this launches at.
