PSA: Anyone with a link can view your Granola notes by default

If you use the AI-powered note-taking app Granola, you might want to double-check your privacy settings. Though Granola says your notes are "private by default," it makes them viewable to anyone with a link, and also uses them for internal AI training unless you opt out. Granola describes itself as an "AI notepad for people in back-to-back meetings." It integrates with your calendar to capture audio from your meetings, and then uses AI to generate a bulleted list of what you've heard, which i...

Elon Musk is about to be a very busy boy!

To be honest, I thought Elon Musk would confidentially file for SpaceX's IPO on the 20th of this month, rather than the 1st. But maybe that just means he's moved on to other numbers, and we should all mark our calendars for June 7th as an IPO date just in case. Based on the April 1st filing, and the general length of an SEC review before the S-1 document becomes public, the earliest I am expecting a SpaceX IPO is June.

It’s not easy to get depression-detecting AI through the FDA

For the past seven years, the California-based startup Kintsugi has been developing AI designed to detect signs of depression and anxiety from a person's speech. But after failing to secure FDA clearance in time, the company is shutting down and releasing most of its technology as open-source. Some elements may even find a second life beyond healthcare, like detecting deepfake audio. Mental health assessments still largely rely on patient questionnaires and clinical interviews, rather than t...

Microsoft’s new ‘superintelligence’ game plan is all about business

Mustafa Suleyman has been preparing for his new job description for a long time. Suleyman is Microsoft's inaugural CEO of AI, but after the company underwent a large-scale restructuring in mid-March, he's handed off some duties and shifted focus to chasing superintelligence. Though the news was only made public last month, he tells The Verge, he'd been preparing for the transition for as many as nine months - and though renegotiating Microsoft's contract with OpenAI is the thing that official...

Google Home’s latest update makes Gemini better at understanding your commands

Google is launching another update to its Home app, which is supposed to make controlling your smart home with its Gemini AI assistant "more natural and reliable," according to this week's release notes. With the update, you can describe the type of lighting you want, such as "the color of the ocean," and Gemini will pick the color based on your prompt. You can also use more natural and precise language when asking Gemini to control your appliances or climate. That means you can now tell Gemi...
