Two years in, ChatGPT's real benefit to humanity is still unclear -- but it's been an absolute bonanza for Big Tech. GenAI hype has added $8 TRILLION to their market capitalizations since ChatGPT's launch. These charts show all the ways money has flowed to tech giants and others in their orbit.

Question for anyone in the UK with kids under 13 who use TikTok: have they been booted off the platform? How are they reacting? TikTok is apparently removing under-13's from the app to comply with the UK's Online Safety Act and I'd love to hear how that's working out for kids and parents.
