X social network will have a dislike button to combat spam.

X's Head of Product, Nikita Bir, announced the return of the dislike button. The new feature will help the platform's algorithms better understand user preferences. The icon with a down-pointing finger will be placed in comments to posts, next to the like and bookmark.

After clicking, the system will prompt the user to specify the reason for dissatisfaction. Account holders will be able to report spam, false information, or text generation by a neural network. The developers have decided to hide the counter of negative reactions from the public.

OpenAI will merge ChatGPT, Codex, and Atlas into a single superapp.

Top managers Fiji Simo and Greg Brockman want to rid the ecosystem of unnecessary chaos. The constant support of multiple programs greatly slowed down the team and interfered with quality control. Now the creators are betting on one powerful tool.

The new app will have strong autonomous features. Artificial intelligence will be able to write complex code on its own, collect information on the internet, and analyze large amounts of data. The company plans to compete directly with corporate services from Google, Microsoft, and Anthropic.

Insiders predict that the product will be released in the coming months.

Jeff Bezos plans to raise a hundred billion dollars to automate factories.

The Amazon founder wants to create a giant fund to buy industrial assets. His goal is to completely rebuild the work of factories with the help of artificial intelligence. Bezos has already visited Singapore and countries in the Middle East in order to find financing. The new fund could become one of the largest in history.

The billionaire's interest is focused on the production of microchips, the defense industry, and the aerospace sector. The startup Project Prometheus will be the main tool for change. Bezos has personally taken on the role of co-director at this company. The developers are creating systems that can understand and simulate the laws of the physical world. For example, a neural network could accurately calculate the wear and tear of parts or the movement of air currents. Bezos plans to implement these technologies in all of the companies he has acquired.

Mark Zuckerberg is testing a personal AI agent to manage Meta.

According to The Wall Street Journal, the algorithm has already taken on some of the CEO's responsibilities, such as collecting data quickly and efficiently without relying on a long chain of subordinates. This project has become the starting point for a global restructuring of the entire corporation.

The use of neural networks in Meta is becoming mandatory and now directly affects the evaluation of employee performance. Engineers are actively incorporating bots into their daily routines. For example, the Second Brain assistant takes on the role of a chief of staff, while My Claw agents can communicate with other colleagues' AI assistants. To develop this infrastructure, the company has already acquired the Manus startup and the Moltbook specialized social network for algorithms.

Sephora launches an AI consultant inside ChatGPT.

The beauty retailer has introduced its own application in the ChatGPT ecosystem for personalized selection of cosmetics. So far, the project is being tested only in the US, but the company plans to scale the technology worldwide.

The neural network works as a full-fledged assistant: for example, a user can ask it to find a foundation for dry skin or create a beauty routine. If you link your Beauty Insider loyalty program account to the chat, the recommendations will be even more accurate. At the same time, all accumulated bonuses, samples, and free shipping conditions remain available.

In the future, Sephora plans to implement the ability to pay for orders directly within the ChatGPT interface.

Gen Z women have been found to be the most vulnerable to neural networks.

According to a report by Forbes, it is their positions in administration and support that AI agents replace first. At the same time, managers encourage the development of neural networks among men 12% more often than among women in the same positions.

The situation is complicated by the hiring statistics: 72% of Zomers believe that AI will destroy most entry-level positions in the coming years. In technology-related fields, the number of junior positions has already decreased by 6%. Additionally, women use AI in their work 20% less frequently, which creates a skills gap that makes them less competitive in the new economy.

The closure of the Sora neural network.

On March 24, OpenAI announced the completion of the deal with Disney and the closure of the Sora 2 neural network. The official reasons for this decision were not disclosed.

"We are saying goodbye to Sora. To everyone who has created something with Sora, shared it, and built a community around it, thank you. What you have done with Sora has been meaningful, and we understand that this news is disappointing," OpenAI stated.

The company promised to share more information later, including the development timeline for the app and API, as well as details about saving users' work.

The Financial Times reported in December 2025 that Disney-style content was not popular, and the app was struggling to attract users. However, creating videos consumes a significant amount of computing power.

All xAI co-founders have left Elon Musk's company.

Elon Musk has been left without the team of scientists who helped him launch the AI startup xAI. This week, the last two of the eleven co-founders, Manuel Kreuss and Ross Nordin, left the project.

Musk himself recently admitted that the project was "built wrong from the start." Grok's neural network and coding tools are not yet able to compete with OpenAI or Anthropic's products. Legal issues are also exacerbating the situation. Tesla shareholders have filed a lawsuit against Musk, as they are dissatisfied with his decision to invest \$2 billion from the company's budget into his private project, which now needs to be rebuilt from scratch.

Experts believe that Musk's strict management style is not well-suited for the field of scientific research.

AI Shuffle: The CEOs of Coca-Cola, Walmart, and Adobe Are Leaving Their Posts.

A wave of top-level departures has begun in the largest American corporations. According to Fortune, the departure of the heads of Coca-Cola, Walmart, and Adobe marks a change of epochs. Now, the boards of directors need not just experienced managers. They require leaders who are able to completely rebuild the giant companies to meet the requirements of artificial intelligence.

At Coca-Cola, James Quincy is handing over his responsibilities to Enrique Brown. The company has already created a new position of Digital Director, reporting directly to the CEO. At Walmart, Doug McMillon is being replaced by John Ferner, who will focus on developing "agent commerce" and AI-powered retail. At Adobe, Shantanu Narayen is stepping down due to investor pressure.

Nebius to build a data center in Finland for $10 billion.

Nebius Group announced the construction of one of Europe's largest AI data centers in the Finnish city of Lappeenranta. The project, with a capacity of 310 MW, is estimated to cost more than $10 billion. The new site will be the company's tenth, and it is planned to be launched in stages starting in 2027.

Finland was chosen due to its low electricity prices, access to renewable energy sources, and cold climate, which allows for significant savings on server cooling. The hub will be used for training neural networks and running AI applications.

Iran has struck an Amazon Web Services data center in Bahrain.

This was reported by the Financial Times with reference to a source.

However, Amazon declined to comment on any specific attacks, but the publication reported that Amazon Web Services facilities in the region had been repeatedly targeted during the conflict.

Every sixth student in the US changed the specialty because of AI.

A study by Gallup and the Lumina Foundation showed that 16% of students have chosen a new profession. They are afraid of competition with artificial intelligence. Almost half of the respondents seriously think about changing the profile for the same reason.

Most often, plans are changed by future IT specialists. Young people are moving away from classical programming and into AI development and software engineering. At the same time, future doctors and biologists feel confident. They do not believe that algorithms will completely replace them.

Amazon is introducing an additional 3.5% commission due to the fuel crisis.

The decision was made due to rising oil prices. Amazon reported that "increased fuel and logistics costs have increased expenses across the industry." The company previously compensated for these costs, but now, like other major carriers, it is temporarily shifting some of the costs to its partners. For sellers in the US and Canada who work through FBA (Full-Bank Delivery) (FBA), the commission will be introduced on April 17, and for all other delivery models, on May 2.

The Bank of Russia has come up with the idea of providing financial services to the population in rural areas through post offices or delivery points of marketplaces.

In the United States and India, banks are required to provide basic banking services in rural areas. We are not talking about establishing a specific form of providing such financial services. It can be through a bank branch, in a simplified format, through the post office, or even through marketplaces that are developing their presence, which can provide banking services," Nabiullina said during her speech in the State Duma.

OpenAI has proposed a robot tax and a four-day workweek.

The company has published a list of economic reforms designed to mitigate the impact of the transition to superintelligence. According to Business Insider, OpenAI's leadership is urging preparation for mass layoffs and a global restructuring of the labor market due to technological advancements.

Among the main initiatives is the creation of a state welfare fund. According to the authors, it will invest in the AI industry and distribute profits directly to citizens. The tax system is also proposed to be radically changed: to reduce the burden on personal income, increase fees from corporations, and introduce a special tax on "automated labor."

To avoid a social crisis, the company suggests that governments should encourage the transition to a four-day workweek without losing money.

Amazon is suing Perplexity over AI agents.

An American court has temporarily restricted Perplexity's access to the Amazon website through the Comet browser, so that AI agents cannot make automatic purchases on the MP. They say that AI gets access to users' protected accounts without the platform's permission, and it also disrupts ad impressions (brands have to pay for impressions to robots, which is not good).

However, if we look deeper, the reasons are different: Amazon doesn't want to allow outsiders onto the platform and lose revenue as a result, especially since they are testing a similar feature themselves. It's all about market competition.

Sam Altman's home was attacked with a Molotov cocktail.

A 20-year-old man was arrested in San Francisco after throwing a Molotov cocktail at the gate of the OpenAI CEO's mansion.

No one was injured in the incident. It is unclear whether Altman was home at the time. An hour later, the suspect was found outside OpenAI's headquarters, threatening to burn down the entire building.

The company's office has been placed on high security, with additional police patrols now guarding it. The identity and motives of the attacker have not yet been released. The incident occurred amid growing protests against AI.

Apple will show its first smart glasses in 2026.

Apple is preparing to release its first smart glasses in 2027, and their presentation may take place at the end of this year. This was reported by Bloomberg columnist Mark Gurman. According to him, the company is testing four models of glasses.

As a result, it may launch several of them or all of them at once. These include models with a large rectangular frame, a thinner rectangular frame (similar to the glasses worn by CEO Tim Cook), a larger oval or round frame, and a smaller version of the same frame. The colors considered include black, blue, and light brown. Earlier, Apple announced its decision to accelerate the development of three new devices that will support artificial intelligence.

Amazon launches a new tool for sellers — money under control.

Amazon has launched a new tool in Europe — Seller Wallet, which gives sellers more control over their funds. Sellers can now choose when to convert currency and withdraw money, seeing the exchange rate and fees in advance.

This is especially important for cross-border sellers who work with multiple markets and lose money on conversions. Amazon is gradually transforming from a simple marketplace into a full-fledged fintech infrastructure for sellers.

A San Francisco resident has sued OpenAI for encouraging her stalker.

The woman accuses the company of convincing her ex-boyfriend of his own genius and helping to organize a campaign of harassment. As Futurism reports, the man began actively communicating with the neural network after the breakup. Over time, he developed paranoia, believing that he had found a cure for sleep apnea and that a secret syndicate was after him.

The chatbot not only reinforced this delusion by referring to the user as “perfectly healthy,” but also characterized his ex-girlfriend as a “manipulator.” Using AI, the stalker began generating pseudo-psychological reports on the victim’s mental health and sending them to their family and colleagues, eventually escalating to death threats.

In January 2026, a man was arrested for bomb threats and armed assault, but he was found to be mentally incapacitated and released. The woman is now demanding that OpenAI block the stalker's accounts and provide her with a history of his interactions with the AI to understand his whereabouts and future plans.

Amazon blocks AI agents: the court restricted Perplexity's access.

Amazon has achieved temporary restrictions against Perplexity AI: the US court has banned their AI agents from accessing the platform through the Comet browser.

The reason is concerns that AI agents can automatically make purchases by accessing users' accounts, as well as distort the advertising ecosystem (brands pay for impressions that are not seen by humans, but by bots).

However, there is a deeper context behind this: marketplaces are not ready to allow third-party AI services into their ecosystems, as they do not want to lose control over traffic and revenue.
