Microsoft Build 2024, Twitter Rebrands to X.com, Winamp Goes Open Source, Dream Chaser, and Infantile Amnesia
About this episode
We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!
In this episode of Discover Daily by Perplexity, we explore the latest developments from Microsoft Build 2024, including AI advancements and new hardware announcements. Scheduled from May 21 to May 23 in Seattle, the event will feature the unveiling of new Surface Pro laptops powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon chips and further integration of Copilot AI into Windows and other Microsoft products. The conference will also highlight new Arm-powered Windows laptops and sessions focused on building apps and services for Copilot.
We also discuss Twitter's transition to X.com, completing its rebranding process under Elon Musk's leadership. The change, effective as of May 18, 2024, redirects the URL twitter.com to x.com, marking the full adoption of the new branding. Musk envisions X as an "everything app," integrating various services such as social networking, banking, and shopping, despite facing challenges like user dissatisfaction and legal hurdles.
Additionally, we cover Winamp's decision to open its source code on September 24, 2024, under the "FreeLLama" initiative, inviting global developers to contribute to the iconic music player. We also delve into Sierra Space's Dream Chaser, a reusable spaceplane designed for cargo transport to low-Earth orbit, and the phenomenon of infantile amnesia, which explains why adults cannot recall early childhood memories.
