It’s also unclear if YouTube plans to support Vision Pro in the future.
However, this could change by the time Vision Pro launches on February 2.
The music streaming service isn’t making its iPad app available on the Vision Pro store either.
Spotify told us it couldn’t confirm the speculation about its app plans for the Vision Pro.
Apple explains that unless developers say they don’t want to participate, their iPad apps in the App Store will automatically appear in the Vision Pro store by default.
Generative AI gets a lot of press, from image-generating tools like Midjourney to Runway to OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
To be clear, the execs — who hail from such industries as manufacturing, transportation and industrial goods — still see GenAI as a priority.
Eighty-nine percent responding to the BCG poll ranked the tech as a “top-three” IT initiative for their companies in 2024.
The results, taken in tandem with responses to a BCG survey late last year, put into sharp relief the high degree of enterprise skepticism surrounding AI-powered generative tools of any kind.
“Bad or illegal decision-making” touches on copyright violations — a hot-button topic in GenAI.
The cybersecurity sector was once largely untouched by the vast headcount reductions taking place across the wider industry, but 2023 shows no sector is immune.
But it’s clear that cybersecurity firms are no longer exempt from layoffs, despite a strong workforce and an ever-increasing number of cyberattacks and breaches.
According to data from layoffs tracker Layoffs.fyi, more than 110 cybersecurity companies have made cuts since the beginning of 2023.
The layoffs came almost exactly a year after Malwarebytes eliminated 14% of its global workforce.
While many cybersecurity firms blamed economic headwinds for reductions in headcount, Malwarebytes CEO Marcin Kleczynski told TechCrunch that the layoffs were an exercise in rationalizing expenditures.
Venture capitalists and founders were already worried about exits after Visa’s $5.6 billion acquisition of Plaid in 2020 was canceled after a tough battle with regulators.
Still, Figma and Plaid are only two examples of startups being impacted by antitrust and competition regulations in recent history.
Yet, since the Adobe-Figma news broke this morning, discourse is already leaning towards how this will hurt startup liquidity; some VCs are even saying that large startup acquisitions are going to be off the table.
But if you look at the data around startup M&A, that sentiment feels more like fear mongering than an actual reflection of what the startup exit market looks like.
In fact, the vast majority of startup deals look nothing like the Figma or Plaid deals.
Peer-to-peer carsharing company Getaround has filed its first earnings report since going public a year ago via a SPAC combination.
The company’s third-quarter earnings report details a company seeing quick revenue growth, but not enough top line yet to cover its expenses.
In the third quarter, the company lost $27.3 million on a net GAAP basis, 16% better than what it reported in Q3 2022.
The company didn’t share its revenue goals for the year, but its Q3 revenues reflect an annualized run-rate of over $95 million.
The company did not file its 2022 annual report, and has only just filed its third-quarter earnings report.
Instead, it’s settling into a place where its use is already commonplace, even for purposes for which it’s frankly ill-suited.
The doomerism vs. e/acc debate continues apace, with all the grounded, fact-based arguments on either side that you can expect from the famously down-to-earth Silicon Valley elites.
Witness everything always, forever, but if you’re looking for specifics, self-driving is a very handy recent one, as is VR and the metaverse.
Utopian vs. dystopian debates in tech always do what they’re actually intended to do, which is distract from having real conversations about the real, current-day impact of technology as it’s actually deployed and used.
Use of generative AI, according to most recent studies, is fairly prevalent and growing, especially among younger users.
