Elon Musk is abandoning his legal battle to back out of buying Twitter and now offering to go through with his original $44 billion (€44 billion) bid for the social media platform. He tweeted “Buying Twitter is an accelerant to creating X, the everything app” without further explanation and this has got us thinking about the potential shift in the Western world for more of a Weibo/WeChat shift in how we use technology. What excites us about this and how far could it really go with Elon at helm?
Kanye West returned to Twitter after being banned for nearly two years, welcomed back with a tweet from Elon to only be suspended from both Twitter & Instagram accounts after Kanye shared multiple anti-semitic posts across both platforms. The world is noticing a downward spiral in Kanye's ever-public displays of adversity, wearing a "White Lives Matter" t-shirt to his Paris Fashion Week show most recently. Kanye is set to leave his Gap Yeezy & Adidas partnerships once the contract ends in 2026 after accusing them of stealing his designs, too. Is Kanye suffering? This does feel like something we've seen before.
Meta have launched VR goggles. The 'Meta Quest Pro' is said to be the most cutting-edge headset introducing eye tracking and mixed reality for $1,499. We discuss what can the world of Meta offer with this kind of hardware outside of gaming?
