ViscloReader , 29 days ago to Technology in Spotify has raised prices for the second time in a year, with no new benefits, after its CEO sparked outrage by claiming the cost of creating 'content' is 'close to zero'

I've spent a good part of my life downloading my music and using mp3 playing apps.
On time I downloaded Spotify to add songs to a shared playlist with friends. I figured I might try the app since I have it installed.

This is the worst music playing app in the world. (I was on free tier) How could anyone see this and think "oh yeah I will pay a subscription to this service". Seriously

While I see this as one of the rare nice use of IA, if the use is just to fact check some text found on the web. It could also just fetch it on the site instead of using an AI.

Might be overkill to use LLMs here I think...

ViscloReader , 4 months ago to Technology in Apple Vision Pro Could Take Four Generations to Reach 'Ideal Form'

Yes and no, smartphone where affordable for more people than the vision pro. Also they solved real problem. In the case of the apple iphone, it was a combination of a lot of tools into one small device so that was nice.
The apple vision is just a different VR headset marketed as 10x the price of a meta headset.
