Microsoft’s love of AI, and ChatGPT in particular of late, is obviously no secret. With today’s announcement from Google along the same lines, this “get AI into the products!!” push is kicking off, big time.

Microsoft is holding an event at its Redmond campus tomorrow. It kicks off at 10 a.m. PT, and we don’t know more than that.
Rumors point to AI enhancements coming to Bing (and beyond?). Apparently it’s AI announcement week!
I’ll be there to see everything Microsoft has to show.

Ah, so that's what everyone was staring at with HUGE cameras this morning.

Flaco the Eurasian Eagle-Owl has left Hallett Sanctuary and is almost home! He is resting in Central Park high above East Drive and 63rd Street, looking down at the grounds of the Central Park Zoo.

It just isn’t a proper approach into JFK unless you do a nearly complete circle around the city adding 15 min to your flight.

Here are all the details on the #GalaxyS23 lineup, from the top-level numbers to the tiny specifics.

In non-phone things, Samsung has a fresh high-end Windows laptop, the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra. This thing is *massive*, much larger than you'd think from photos. But it has all the goodies.
... and going all-in on a unique design, huge camera improvements, and the S Pen on the S23 Ultra.

Galaxy S23 day! Samsung's leaning on value in the base S23, giving you a huge screen on the S23 Plus ...

Yes, folks. I understand there isn’t effective public transit in wide swaths of our country.
The point is to emphasize that the government shouldn’t be providing incentives for anyone to buy a new car, no matter its fuel source. We should be investing in public infrastructure.

What if we gave every adult $7500 in tax credits for money spent on train and bus tickets instead
Quote Tweet
On my watch, the great American road trip is going to be fully electrified.
And now, through a tax credit, you can get up to $7,500 on a new electric vehicle.

Unless you're starting your trip across the street from Grand Central and time your departure precisely to the LIRR timetable, your ride will absolutely take longer than walking to 53rd and getting on the E. Just FYI.

Can't wait for Grand Central LIRR service to go past Jamaica, because this is the most idiotic thing to hang your hat on and constantly promote.
The E runs from 53rd & Lex every 8 minutes (or less!) and the trip to Jamaica is only 5 minutes slower.

As a stereo pair, two new #AppleHomePod speakers make an incredibly fun home entertainment/theater system.

"With two HomePods, we’re now talking about a $600 audio system that can sonically compete with any number of powered stereo speakers or soundbar packages that live in the same price bracket."

I reviewed SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake! While #CosmicShake doesn't redefine the 3D platformer or anything, it succeeds thanks to its approachability and surprisingly great level theming. It's worth picking up, especially if you have kids.

Interesting analysis. Why has NYC rent continued to climb, while the population of NYC by all measures seems to be decreasing?

The overall point of this article is spot on: EVs are not enough. Public Transit is an essential part of the climate solution, but continues to be ignored by policy makers at a level to make a real difference.

More Americans are falling behind on their car payments than during the financial crisis. In December, the percentage of subprime auto borrowers who were at least 60 days late on their bills rose to 5.67%, vs the crisis peak of 5.04% in January 2009. bloomberg.com/news/articles/

Apple takes a lot of opinionated stances on how iPhone photos should look. Recently, they haven't worked out so well.

I've written before about how getting more people on buses and e-bikes is faster and cheaper than swapping gas cars for EVs, but reporting this story helped me think in a new way about how to nudge those changes by treating batteries like a public good

An EV for every gas guzzler "is a disaster of its own making: a resource-intensive, slow crawl toward a future of sustained high traffic deaths, fractured neighborhoods, and ... choices that prioritize roads over virtually everything else.”
