While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

Elon Musk played a gambit when he resolved to turn the X social media platform into a creator's paradise, hoping to use a growing pool of quality content creators as the proverbial honeypot to retain and expand X's user base. Of course, to attract content creators, you need big bucks. And judging from MrBeast's latest payout, X is certainly enabling the requisite massive windfall. X's ad revenue-sharing program for content creators currently has just three requirements: Subscription to X Premium or association with a verified organization At least 5 million organic impressions on cumulative posts within the last 3 months […]

Bill Ackman, the founder and CEO of the hedge fund Pershing Square Capital Management, has quite a sordid history when it comes to walking the talk. Who can forget the billionaire's seemingly desperate exhortations in March 2020, declaring "hell is coming?" What's even more interesting, even as Bill Ackman's words tanked the stock market at the time, he was apparently buying stocks hands over fist. Consider the fact that the billionaire hedge fund manager suggested at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic that Hilton Hotels was essentially heading to zero. The catch: just a few days later, the hotel ended […]
With a growing advertiser-led backlash threatening the financial foundations of his X social media platform, Elon Musk appears to be alternating between fits of rage over the spiraling controversy and episodes of contrition. After his public tour of Israel over the past few days to smooth over ruffled feathers, Elon Musk might well win forgiveness for his impromptu actions that have been deemed to be anti-Semitic, but will we get more circumspection from the world's richest person going forward? Watch my conversation with @ElonMusk: https://t.co/YedkELVhFn — Andrew Ross Sorkin (@andrewrsorkin) November 29, 2023 At the time of writing, Elon Musk […]
The owner of X social media platform, Elon Musk, just can't seem to catch a reprieve. After being accused of both anti-Semitism as well as supposedly pandering to the Jewish lobby, Musk now finds himself in an unenviable position of trying to soothe the tempers of agitated advertisers, who seem intent on jumping the proverbial ship. As we hinted in a recent post, Elon Musk recently waded into the controversy surrounding the Gaza war by responding in the affirmative to an X post that accused the Jewish communities of pushing "dialectical hatred" against the whites. And, at the risk of […]
