Google has made Personal Intelligence an opt-in experience, meaning users must choose to turn it on — and they can choose which apps are connected to Gemini. For example, you could set it up to ignore your search history but factor in your email, photo library and YouTube viewing history.
As part of the deal, OpenAI’s employees sold stock to a group of investors including Thrive Capital, SoftBank, Dragoneer Investment Group, Abu Dhabi’s MGX and T. Rowe Price, said the person, who spoke on condition of anonymity as the information is private.
Haha, upvoted for this, if not for the effort :D
I thought ET/Hindustan Times etc showed up in Google Search results since I search from the region. But if they show up before Bloomberg/FT/WSJ etc for other regions too, then ET's SEO team is doing something terrific.

The ppt in the blog is from the 2024 report - https://docsend.com/view/zqgfupfzyud499hn. The India 1-2-3 framework is old though. IIRC it was coined by a retail sector founder (Kishore Biyani) in the 2000s.
Also Koramangala, HSR layout are also the more affluent localities in Bengaluru.
"Matt Novak cautions against falling back into superstitious thinking in our praise of Demon Haunted World. After all, he says, “the ‘accuracy’ of predictions is often a Rorschach test” and “some of Sagan’s concerns” in other parts of the book “sound rather quaint.”"

One thing which is missing in conversations about circumventing ads on youtube, is that such users are also depriving content creators of their income. For those who don't want to watch ads, feel free to subscribe to youtube premium to support creators(or directly support them).
Who this is for:
People who need to encrypt a big sensitive file like a diary and don't expect to remember any passwords years from now (but who paradoxically will be capable of remembering where they've hidden their horcruxes)
People who want to transmit files across multiple channels to substantially reduce the ability for an attacker to intercept
Q) This isn't really in line with how horcruxes work in the harry potter universe!
