A lot of stories this week about the TikTok ban note that it would be hard to detach the app from its valuable algorithm. Thanks, strangely enough, to the Europeans, that's not actually true. A look at TikTok's options as it readies a legal challenge to the US gov:…

Threads now has 150 million monthly users, @zuck says on Meta earnings call today. That’s up from almost 100 million users in October. How bout them daily users tho? theverge.com/2024/4/24/2413…

Senate passes TikTok ban bill, sending it to President Biden’s desk trib.al/C1m0tZd
By now licensing its Horizon OS to Lenovo, Asus, and others, Meta wants to be for headsets what Microsoft was for PCs. An interesting move with Apple now in the space. History repeats itself. theverge.com/2024/4/22/2413…

"I think the really shocking thing was seeing 28 employees fired here. I've been covering tech for a long time, you see these selective firings, but you don't see something that's like 28... that was to send a message," says @alexeheath on Google firing employees for protesting.
hell hath frozen?
The first rule of AI club is not disclosing how you trained the AI: “Meta gets hand-wavy when I ask for specifics on the data used for training Llama 3.” @alexeheath theverge.com/2024/4/18/2413…
we are so back?
