Many are ghosted after thousands of applications, landing service-industry roles just to survive. The tech dream is feeling more like a glitch than a guarantee.AI Lovers Are Coming, But We Don’t Have to Accept Them Big Tech’s pushing AI “companions” like voluptuous anime bots on X, aiming to tap into our need for intimacy—but public sentiment?

With 20 million monthly users (mostly Gen Z/Alpha), it’s now all about storytelling, subscriptions, ads, and safety filters—not sci-fi futures.Perplexity Throws Down a $34.5B All-Cash Bid to Buy Google ChromePerplexity AI just dropped a wild $34.5 billion all-cash offer to snag Google’s Chrome browser—despite being valued way lower.
