Google DeepMind researchers say society may never agree on whether AI is conscious, and that disagreement could fracture politics itself.

Oura's customer feedback was scattered across the organization, until Unwrap brought it all together. Now they can surface what's actually broken, fix what matters most, and build a product their members keep coming back to.
With Unwrap, you get:
All customer feedback automatically categorized
Query feedback across channels using Unwrap Assistant, or in your favorite tools via MCP
Real-time alerts from feedback as they arise and a clear view of customer sentiment
A platform trusted and tested at scale by Perplexity, DoorDash, Stripe, Clay, lululemon, Depop and other leading companies
If your team is still relying on time consuming manual processes (or even a mix of manual work and AI), there's a much better way to aggregate and analyze feedback.
Unwrap is offering trials to Open Tools subscribers!
Meta built an AI program that logged its employees' every keystroke and mouse movement.
Then the sensitive data it collected leaked to the entire company.
Anthropic just updated its policy so Claude can ask some users for a government ID and a face scan.
⚡️YOUR MOVE For people building the life they want, now.
🔥 AI isn't the real threat. Dependence is. Dan Koe just wrote the most honest letter on becoming unemployable in the AI era, and the identity shift behind it changes everything. → Read the letter
🤖 A one-person company isn't a person who does nothing. It's a person who only does what actually needs them. This is the complete 9-system operating manual that makes that real. → Get the manual
💰 Freelance writers make so little because they act like employees. Premium ghostwriters act like business owners. These 5 skills are the exact difference, and one of them will surprise you. → See the skills
The Amazon Contradiction That Reveals Its Entire AI Strategy – Amazon spent months blocking OpenAI from its data. Now it's quietly buying ads inside ChatGPT. The contradiction makes perfect sense once you see what Amazon is really after.
The Six-Word Tweet That Reorganized How Engineers Use AI – The head of Claude Code says he doesn't write prompts anymore. He writes loops that write the prompts. The shift behind that sentence is quietly redefining how work gets done.
Google Lost $250B Because Two People Walked Out the Door – The co-author of the paper that created modern AI left Google for OpenAI. A Nobel laureate left for Anthropic. Same week. Google's market cap fell $250 billion, and the message was unmistakable.
Predis.ai — Generate branded social content, schedule it, and analyze your competitors from one AI platform.
Careery — AI applies to hundreds of jobs on your behalf while you focus on preparing to win the interviews.
Atoms — The fastest way to turn an idea into a working product in the AI era.

We can't agree on whether the machines are conscious, and that disagreement is becoming political. The company building AI to track everyone just proved it tracks its own people first. And the lab that warns loudest about AI danger now wants your ID to use it. Every promise this industry makes comes with a quieter cost.
The only question is whether you notice before you've already paid it.
