  • AI-generated songs top Spotify and Billboard charts as synthetic music floods streaming platforms
    November 14, 2025, 10:40 AM EST. Three AI-generated tracks surged onto Spotify and Billboard, underscoring a surge of synthetic music. Walk My Walk and Livin' on Borrowed Time by Breaking Rust led Spotify's Viral 50 in the US, while a Dutch track, We Say No, No, No to an Asylum Center, topped Spotify's global viral chart. The ascent follows a wave of AI-made music saturating platforms; a Deezer study estimates about 50,000 AI-generated songs uploaded daily (roughly 34% of submissions). The tracks' quick rise has sparked discussion about rights, takedowns, and provenance, as some songs disappeared after owners or platforms acted. Experts note AI music has improved in quality and reach, raising questions about compensation and attribution as this hyperscale phenomenon expands.
  • Is Your Internet Speed Delivering on What You Pay For? How to Check
    November 14, 2025, 10:38 AM EST. Wondering if your internet lives up to your bill? A simple speed test can confirm your download and upload speeds, plus latency and often jitter. Across sites, the core metrics are the same: download speed, upload speed and ping. Providers advertise the downstream speed, but what matters for streaming, gaming and video calls is the actual performance under real use. Tools like Ookla's test are commonly cited by outlets like CNET. If results lag, consider hardware, connection type, or plan adjustments. A recent report shows many Americans cut speeds after bill hikes, underscoring the value of testing before changes. Run multiple tests and compare to your plan's promised speeds to decide next steps.
  • US stock market slips as Nvidia and AI stocks weaken
    November 14, 2025, 10:32 AM EST. US stocks edged lower as Nvidia and other AI heavyweights weakened, weighing on a broad market that had rallied recently. Investors cited profit-taking after a long tech run and concerns about AI profitability, demand for compute, and lofty valuations. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell, with semiconductors leading declines on fears that near-term earnings may disappoint. Analysts say durability of AI spending and clearer earnings guidance are needed to sustain momentum. The session also underscored ongoing policy and regulatory noise around AI, adding to market nerves. A rebound may depend on clearer outcomes from big AI names and evidence that demand remains robust for next-generation hardware and software.
  • Apple-Tencent Deal: Apple to Process WeChat Payments with 15% Commission in China
    November 14, 2025, 10:28 AM EST. Apple has reached a deal with Tencent to process in-app payments inside WeChat mini apps and mini games on the iPhone, earning a 15% commission on purchases. This creates a new China revenue stream after a year of negotiations. In China, most iPhone users access services through WeChat rather than separate App Store apps, so Apple gains a foothold in a vast ecosystem previously outside the App Store model. Bloomberg estimates the size of the WeChat ecosystem could make this deal worth billions, despite the lower 15% rate compared to Apple's standard 30%.
  • Facebook Marketplace Adds Collaborative Shopping and Meta AI Insights
    November 14, 2025, 10:26 AM EST. Meta is revamping Facebook Marketplace with collections that let users group listings and invite friends, plus collaborative buying to chat with sellers and coordinate pickups. Users can save a listing, create a collection, set public or private, and share updates via Feed, Messenger, and WhatsApp. Meta is also integrating Meta AI to help buyers ask better questions with a "Suggested questions to ask" button, and to provide AI-generated insights for vehicle listings, including engine options, safety, and pricing. Buyers can react and comment on listings, which helps surface item quality. The changes aim to boost time on Marketplace and competitiveness, building on earlier eBay and Poshmark inventory integrations. The move demonstrates Meta's push to blend social, commerce, and AI across its services.
