cybersecurity threats from companies of Chinese origin or those linked to its political philosophy, US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) commissioner Brendan Carr told ET, pointing to New Delhi’s pre-emptive action against entities posing both commercial and security challenges to an increasingly digital economy.

Sora, a new service from OpenAI that produces one-minute videos in response to a textual prompt, isn’t yet available to the public.

OpenAI. He’s also probably the best ‘educator’ about AI on YouTube, and anyone whose vocation collides with AI should watch him. The exciting thing about Karpathy’s videos is that there is just a handful of them and the educational ones are at least an hour long. This is not ‘insta’ material, and it’s hard work watching them. The post I mention is precisely about this— ‘shortification’ of learning, as he calls it. He writes, “There are a lot of videos on YouTube, TikTok, etc., that give the appearance of education, but if you look closely, they are really just entertainment. This is very convenient for everyone involved: the people watching enjoy thinking they are learning (but actually, they are just having fun). The people creating this content also enjoy it because fun has a much larger audience, fame and revenue… Learning is not supposed to be fun… the primary feeling should be that of effort. It should look a lot less like that ‘10-minute full body’ workout from your local digital media creator and a lot more like a serious session at the gym. You want the mental equivalent of sweating. Allocate a four-hour window. Don’t just read, take notes, re-read, rephrase, process, manipulate, learn.” Every word he writes is 100% true for those trying to learn about investing online. In theory, it’s easy to access all the information you need to invest profitably, and most of it is available for free. The question is, are investors able to do it?

Joe Biden's campaign is embracing TikTok to court younger voters ahead of the presidential elections, but U.S. adults have mixed views about whether the video-sharing app should even operate in the country.

An additional 31% of adults say they neither favor nor oppose a ban on the social media platform, which is owned by Beijing-based ByteDance. Among those who use TikTok at least daily, a national ban would likely be highly unpopular: 73% say they oppose it.

Never hesitant to rebrand an existing phenomenon, millennials and their Gen Z ‘frenemies’ are admitting to having ‘money dysmorphia’—which is a feeling of insecurity around their financial situation even when the true picture reveals little cause for concern. Some 43% of Gen Z and 41% of millennials say they suffer from a flawed perception of their finances, according to a recent Credit Karma study.
