The tech world is grappling with a series of developments, from the fallout of the Epstein files to advancements in AI and data sharing. Several prominent figures in the tech industry are named in the Epstein files, while Google is expanding its AirDrop support to more Android devices, and AI companies are shifting their focus from chatbots to AI workforce management.
The Epstein files, which have surfaced, include "bold-faced tech names" such as Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Sergey Brin, Eric Schmidt, and Mark Zuckerberg, according to The Verge. These individuals had varying degrees of interaction with Jeffrey Epstein. The Verge also reported that the emails show the "anti-woke crusaders are afraid of accountability."
In other tech news, Google is set to expand its AirDrop-like Quick Share support to more Android devices "very soon," according to The Verge. This move follows the initial introduction of the feature to Pixel 10 phones last year. Eric Kay, vice president of Google, announced the expansion, which aims to make transferring data between iPhones and Android devices easier.
Meanwhile, the AI landscape is also evolving. Anthropic and OpenAI recently released products focused on managing teams of AI agents rather than chatting with a single AI assistant, as reported by Ars Technica. This shift, which aims to create a delegated workforce, comes amid a week that reportedly saw $285 billion wiped off software stocks. Ars Technica also reported on filmmaker Darren Aronofsky's AI studio, Primordial Soup, and Time magazine's release of "On This Day 1776," a series of AI-generated historical docudramas. The project uses AI tools to create photorealistic scenes featuring avatars of historical figures. Time Studios President Ben Bitonti said the project provides a glimpse at what "thoughtful, creative, artist-led use of AI can look like."
