Spotify is adding new markets to its music video test

Spotify is expanding its beta test of adding music videos to the platform by several dozen regions, though it still is unavailable in the U.S.

Spotify introduced music videos to its platform earlier this year for a number of Premium subscribers as “another way to connect with the songs and artists they love,” the company said. Spotify said that users who discover a song and then watch the accompanying video on Spotify are 34% more likely on average to listen to the song

Jubilee Media wants to build political empathy through YouTube debates 

Jubilee founder Jason Y. Lee wants to solve the problem of media echo chambers.

Lee’s idea is relatively simple: Present professionally filmed, two-sided debates on YouTube, and give the exchanges scintillating titles like “Can 1 Woke Teen Survive 20 Trump Supporters?” His bet is that, once they get under the hood of that face-off (which can easily run over an hour), viewers will leave with a better understanding of the other side.

‘She was trying to warn us’: Why an old conspiracy theory about Beyoncé and Sia is resurfacing online

Following the highly publicized arrest and indictment of rapper Diddy, chronically online internet sleuths and tinfoil hat–wearing conspiracy theorists have been doing what they do best: spreading insane rumors online. 

An old conspiracy theory involving Beyoncé and Sia has been given a new lease of life due to the Diddy charges. A fake photoshopped tweet, edited to seem like it was shared from Sia’s official X account in 2020, read: “Baby, everything your own nice cat

Alkohol – ešte horšia pohroma pre starcov

Že alkohol škodí zdraviu, je všeobecne známe. Bola vyvrátená aj útecha o prospešnosti malých dávok v prevencii srdcovocievnych chorôb. A na dôvažok je tu ešte zistenie, že u denných konzumentov vo veku nad 60 rokov sa riziko úmrtia počas nasledujúcich 12 rokov zvyšuje ešte podstatne viac, ako u mladších. http://www.osel.cz/13739-alkohol-este-horsia-pohroma-pre-starcov.html

The WordPress drama could have major implications for the internet

The WordPress situation has soured in the past several weeks, as a dispute spirals out of control between founder Matt Mullenweg and WP Engine, a platform that many users deploy in order to host their WordPress sites.

‘It’s the future’: Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. on AI in the music industry

The three years that Harvey Mason Jr. has been CEO of the Recording Academy have been some of the most eventful in the music industry since Napster upended the idea that people have to pay for music. At least then, peer-to-peer sharing was the industry’s sole existential threat. 

Though most people know about the Grammys, the Recording Academy also engages with issues that its membership of musicians, producers, and songwriters care about, such as royalty payments for ra

How can AI win the trust of doctors and nurses?

In August 2023, the American Medical Association surveyed over 1,000 physicians about their sentiments toward AI. The results, published at the end of that year, painted a nuanced picture. While there was an obvious and undeniable undercurrent of enthusiasm, there was also an unignorable level of trepidation. 

While 65% recognized the potential benefits of AI, nearly 70% expressed some level of co

What in the world is going on at Ubisoft?

Ubisoft is no stranger to takeover whispers. In 2004, Electronic Arts made a run at the video game publisher, but was ultimately rebuffed. In 2015, Vivendi made an even more serious attempt that took years to defuse. Now Ubisoft is the subject of speculation once again—only this time, the deal could actually happen.

The past few years have been far from the best for Ubisoft—and 2024 has been especially painful. The highly-anticipated Star Wars: Outlaws was a sales disappoi

Meanwhile, the “patriot” accounts of Facebook are frequently shaming liberals, and the flag emoji has grown into a Trumpist sy

‘She’s using our chat as her personal emotional support hotline’: What to do when a friend is oversharing in the group chat
