If Reddit required face scans to prove you’re human… would you still use it?

With AI bots getting harder to detect, there s been growing discussion around platforms using biometric verification (like face scans) to confirm real users.

Cool in theory... Reddit is full of bots, fake accounts and garbage engagement. But let s be real

Reddit without anonymity isn t Reddit.

Claude by Anthropicp/claude

4mo ago

People are switching from OpenAI to Claude following Sam Altman's announcement today.

TL;DR: Anthropic refused to sign a contract with the Pentagon that would have allowed the U.S. military to use all of its models without restrictions. Anthropic insisted on an exception, and brace yourself, that its models cannot be used: 1) for mass surveillance of citizens, 2) for autonomous killing. Now the administration is threatening that if the founder of Anthropic doesn't change his mind by a certain date, they will come after him.

Google, OpenAI, and Musk (Grok) have all signed the contract.

Following Sam Altman's announcement over the past few hours, people have been speaking out massively about cancelling their OpenAI subscriptions and subscribing to Claude.

Netflix announced an $82.7 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. What does it mean for users?

Hollywood started panicking because of this Netflix X Warner Bros acquisition.

I m deeply immersed in cinematography, and to me, this feels like proof that theatres could decline even further as people continue to favour streaming. I m also questioning what this means for content quality. Fewer major producers could create more room for monopolies and potential price wars, and I think we can expect subscription prices to rise as a result.
