Apple unveils the $599+ MacBook Neo, with a 13-inch Liquid Retina display, an A18 Pro chip, side-firing speakers, a 1080p webcam, two USB-C ports, and Touch ID

Apple debuts a new entry-level MacBook at just the right time  —  Apple finally took the wraps off its long-rumored budget laptop.

One thing about the MacBook Neo video that jumps out at me is how often Apple simply says “Neo” instead of “MacBook Neo.” There were also a few “your Neo” mentions. The strategy doesn't work with “Pro” as it's too generic. “Air” doesn't work either. Apple looking to own “Neo.”

Anthropic says “Claude will remain ad-free”, its users “won't see ‘sponsored’ links adjacent to” conversations, and responses won't be influenced by advertisers

There are many good places for advertising.  A conversation with Claude is not one of them.

One thing to keep in mind when it comes to a SpaceX and Tesla combination: Most Tesla shareholders and analysts are with Musk. If he says jump, they will ask how high. As shown in the tweet below from Ives, the logic for a SpaceX and Tesla combination is basically YOLO. Also,
