which may include a redesigned disc-less Xbox Series X next year and a next-gen hybrid console in 2028.
This is interesting because as a gamer myself I wonder what a disc-less Xbox series X would look like and also what a next-gen hybrid console will look like.

“We believe that an expanded gaming content organization — one that enables Xbox Game Studios and ZeniMax’s development studios to collaborate effectively together — will empower those world-class studios to do their best work in growing our portfolio of games players love.”

Sounds like a monopoly?

Benefits of super app
These benefits seem more for the companies/ creators of the app then for the user.

WeChat.
Almost every other article talks about Wechat so I assume that it is doing a good job in China then

. A super app is a mobile application combining numerous functionalities and services in one platform. It allows users to perform various tasks and access various services without switching between apps.

Super apps are trying to be monopolies in the upcoming digital age, and monopolies are (almost) always bad for the consumers.
Yeah this does not sound good
-
Consumers do not want to think about the apps they use as they have a life to live.
I can see this level of thinking I as a consumer just want to order something make sure I have the right information then wait to get the product that I want and not think of it until I have to use it again.

You can shop for clothes, groceries, and food, hire a plumber, or pay your bills on the same app. This level of market control is why some experts predict that super apps are the way to the first $10 trillion company.
That seems good but what would be the drawback?

it seems that the push for them is less a genuine innovation or insight than a desperate gambit to create new assets and transactions that can sustain perpetual platform growth for investors.
I can see this point of view myself as to me seems as a money grab.

Microsoft, super apps may provide an opportunity to break the hold of more established monopolies like Apple or Google. And for consumers, one application with a core function brings together a diverse array of services such as calling a cab, investing money, or even making a quick buck.
Yeah this seems good for the companies but with having a super app will the app be useful and helpful in everyday life?
-
But the realities of our tech ecosystem—in which the largest players seem committed to surveillance, labor exploitation, weaponizing tech, algorithmic discrimination

The internet browser foments these anxieties. In 19th-century department stores, browsing was an in-the-moment, flight-of-fancy, leave-no-trace activity. But as a tool, the browser maintains a record of the places we’ve been, the information we’ve sought, the questions we’ve asked. The browser keeps tabs; it has a memory. And, crucially, your browser does not really belong to you. It remembers your history until you ask it to forget.
I never knew about this but now thinking about it makes sense.

Where the grazer was steadfast in their pursuit
Is the grazer us humans browsing the internent?
-
the browser was an herbivore who ate buds, shoots, and twigs off of trees and bushes. While grazers faced down to munch on grasses, browsers kept their heads up. They reached and craned, looking outward as they searched for sustenance.
This is an interesting prospective and description about how the browser started off I have never looked at it this way.

-
A majority of Americans say their concern about artificial intelligence in daily life outweighs their excitement about it, according to a Pew Research Center survey of more than 11,000 US adults.

Some argue that AI-generated music lacks the emotional depth and authenticity that is unique to human-created music.
I agree with this statement to because I feel like as an human you can create something better than some music that is Ai driven but that's just me.

I wonder how people who make beats from scratch feel about this.

A rogue coder could create harmful directives for an AI to damage individuals, software, hardware and organizations.
If Ai can really get that smart that will be scary for sure.
-
Many marketers saw ChatGPT
This is another article talking about ChatGPT and how it deals with Ai and potentially as an fear.
-
People already create deepfake videos of celebrities and politicians.
I think this also one of my biggest fears of Ai are the deepfake videos because you can trick so many people with it and provide misinformation.

There have already been several examples of bias in generative AI systems, including early versions of ChatGPT.
I would never expect chatgpt to give bias information because I have never used it but it makes sense because since it's generating data I assume they information they use can be bias.
