ROBOTAXI

🚖 Elon Musk announces Robotaxi

Elon Musk announced that Tesla will unveil its robotaxi this summer.

The X owner and Tesla CEO unveiled the Aug. 8 release date on a post Friday.

Tesla models with FSD (full self-driving) "will be superhuman to such a degree that it will seem strange in the future that humans drove cars, even while exhausted and drunk!" he said in a post on X in March.

It will directly compete with major players like Google’s Waymo, GM’s Cruse, Baidu, Zoox, etc.

Here’s how Waymo’s robotaxi drives at the moment:

Shares of Tesla surged nearly 4% to $171.19 in extended trading Friday following the announcement.

AI SONGS

🎵 Spotify's new AI playlists

Spotify announces a new AI playlist feature that generates personalized playlists based on user prompts, now available exclusively for premium subscribers in the UK and Australia.

How it works:

• Users provide a unique prompt describing their music preferences. Spotify's AI then generates a playlist tailored to themes like locations, animals, activities, movie characters, colors, and emojis.

• The richness of your input enhances the playlist's customization. Mix genres, moods, artists, and eras for a more tailored experience.

• Fine-tune your playlist with feedback such as "more pop" or "less upbeat."

• Once satisfied, click "Create," and your customized playlist is instantly saved to your library.

For the ultimate personalized experience, Spotify recommends combining genres, moods, artists, and eras in your prompts.
