It is an absolutely delightful irony that the richest man in the world is universally acknowledged to be a huge fucking loser who not a single living person envies in any way at all
Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

I had never tried Gemini Deep Research before (and heard rave reviews from folks), so yesterday I decided to give it a go, asking a scholarly question I already know the answer to, so I could see how its response stacks up.
It’s had ~18 hours to process my query, and this is as far as it’s gotten.

Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardívol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.

Pendant 20 ans, on m’a dit que pirater les œuvres des artistes c’était le mal absolu et que ça allait détruire la culture, et maintenant on me dit que oh bon, les IA génératives, qu’est-ce qu’on y peut, hein, les gens vont s’en servir de toutes façons.

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

Absolute peak enshittification, here. Unbelievable. "We've decided to hide the standard functionality of our previous product – you know, the thing you depend on – and put it in a drop-down menu that you're unlikely to find"
This is in no way apologism for Google but click Search Tools and select "Verbatim". It makes it work how you expect
