Unlike other hyped-up tech, self-driving taxis look like they could be the real thing. Which is exactly how I felt after my last trip to San Francisco, when I took several rides in Waymo's robotaxis. AdvertisementWe've heard about self-driving taxis forever, but they're just starting to become a reality. AdvertisementWaymo self-driving taxis are kitted out with cameras and other sensors, like this Jaguar model crossing an intersection in San Francisco. Waymo's self-driving cars aren't perfectYes, there are still some issues with Waymo, at least in the rides I took recently.

But also a true thing: In 1994, when Simpson fled police in his white Bronco, 95 million people watched the slow-motion chase on TV, in real time. In 1994, AOL, the service that popularized the "World Wide Web," had a little more than a million subscribers. AdvertisementAnd the notion that we're never getting a TV event like the Simpson affair is not a new one, either. Digital media can certainly focus a lot of people's attention on one thing, but it can't compel everyone to watch one thing. Now I'm going to go stream June 17th, 1994 — ESPN's documentary about the Simpson chase.

In the meantime we may see something decidedly less ambitious out of Apple: New iPads. It would be like a more portable Facebook portal. And while I've never heard of the Google Pixel, I had heard of the Facebook Portal, and... Facebook doesn't sell those anymore. On the other hand: My colleague Katie Notopoulos loved the Facebook Portal. But you never know: I spent decades not wearing a watch, and now if I forget to put on my Apple Watch before I leave the house I get anxious about losing my steps for the day.

Instagram generated $32.4 billion in ad revenue in 2021, making up 27% of Meta's total revenue. Instagram's ad revenue was higher than Google's YouTube, which generated $28.8 billion.

More context: Instagram made more money selling ads that year than Google's YouTube, which generated $28.8 billion in ad revenue. (Analysts at MoffettNathanson peg YouTube's overall revenue for that year at $35.4 billion, after factoring in the money it makes from its music and TV subscription services.)

There are zero people who care about the business prospects of Trump Media & Technology Group who were unaware it was a bad business. And Trump Media & Technology Group? The numbers Trump's social media company are willing to share with investors illustrate that it's a lousy business.

Where's the killer app for the Apple Vision Pro? AdvertisementRemember back in February, when Apple launched its Apple Vision Pro headset and there was a flurry of interest in the $3,500 goggles? He notes that when Apple Vision Pro launched in February, it had four immersive video experiences available, and now there are … five. It's worth noting that Thompson isn't an Apple Vision Pro naysayer. And maybe that will happen (though people expecting an Apple Vision Pro that looks and weighs like a pair of Ray-Bans may not ever get what they want).

Disney's proxy battle is expected to cost the company and rival hedge funds at least $70 million. Retail investors make up a big chunk of Disney shareholders, and it's expensive to reach them. The outcome of the shareholder vote could change Disney's direction, but its impact is still unclear. AdvertisementThis week's big Disney shareholder vote is supposed to be a seismic event — a referendum on the future of one of the world's most important entertainment companies. But we can definitively say that the Disney proxy battle, which concludes on Wednesday, has been a nice boost for a collection of consultants and media companies.

Donald Trump's newly public social-media company is not the next Nvidia — or Meta or Google or whatever has happened with X/Twitter. It seems, let's say, unlikely that his media company's stock price is going to stay so high forever. AdvertisementFor one thing, TMTG, which owns the conservative Twitter copycat Truth Social, makes basically nothing. Truth Social and any other business Trump Media and Technology Group spins up is pretty much guaranteed to appeal just to Trump fans. Might Trump and Truth Social be different, at least on the stock front?

That's a lot of eggs in a few stocks, but you can't handle tracking more than 5 stocks. First, our recommendation is the first $10,000 be invested into a low-cost S & P 500 index fund. Keep in mind: A $1 million portfolio with only $10,000 in an S & P 500 index fund translates to a mere 1% weighting for that fund. That means, in theory, you could boost your S & P 500 index fund allocation to 40%. One final thought: Don't forget to factor cash into your portfolio weighting, which should be based on your near-to-medium-term outlook for the market.

The Chesapeake 1000 – the largest crane on the East Coast – is needed in the Patapsco River where a 984-foot cargo vessel slammed into the bridge Tuesday. Live updates: The latest on the Baltimore bridge collapseIn addition to the crane, three heavy lift vessels are expected to start arriving Friday, US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg told CNN. This appraisal is critical in determining how small to cut the bridge pieces so cranes can lift them, he said. In addition to the human toll, the destruction of the Key Bridge and closure of the Port of Baltimore could lead to widespread economic fallout. In this NTSB handout, an investigator examines the collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge from the cargo vessel Dali on March 27 in Baltimore.

New York CNN —A federal judge on Thursday ordered Sam Bankman-Fried to repay more than $11 billion as part of his sentence for defrauding customers and investors in his failed crypto exchange FTX. In their sentencing memorandum earlier this month, federal prosecutors laid out their reasoning for seeking $11 billion in forfeiture. Unlike restitution, where the money from seized assets goes directly to victims, the money from forfeiture is taken by the government and absorbed into the US Treasury. It is unclear how much Bankman-Fried is currently worth, but it’s likely not anywhere near $11 billion. So far, the Department of Justice has redistributed about $4 billion to Madoff’s victims.

Read previewLots of consumers like streaming music. Lots of musicians complain about streaming — they say it doesn't generate nearly as much revenue for them as they deserve and need. So here's a proposal to help fix that: a tax that would increase American consumers' music streaming bills by 50% — meaning you'd pay an extra $4 to $10 a month for services like Spotify or Apple Music. I don't believe there was ever a time that Americans supported a 50% tax hike on anything, for any reason. But when we got on the phone to discuss the bill this month, he said it's supposed to be taken literally and seriously.

43% of 18-29 year-olds in the US have used ChatGPT, up from 33% last July. Nearly a third of young people have used ChatGPT for work tasks, up from 12% last summer.
