YouTube has recently announced its plan to introduce longer ad breaks in its Connected TV experiences. This decision comes after research showed that the majority of YouTube viewers prefer video ads to be grouped together within longer blocks rather than shorter ad slots distributed throughout a video. The initial experiment led to a 29% increase
The luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) has been around since the 1970s, with the goal of improving solar energy capture by using luminescent materials to convert and concentrate sunlight onto photovoltaic (PV) cells. This technology offers advantages over traditional concentrators by being able to harvest diffuse light and being used in applications like building-integrated photovoltaics. However,
Researchers continue to push the boundaries of neuroscience with the development of a new two-photon fluorescence microscope. This innovative tool promises high-speed imaging of neural activity at cellular resolution, allowing for a more in-depth understanding of how neurons communicate in real time. Led by Weijian Yang from the University of California, Davis, the research team
Eric Schmidt, former CEO and chairman of Google, recently stirred controversy with his remarks on Google’s response to the rise of ChatGPT. He claimed that Google was blindsided by the emergence of ChatGPT because its employees prioritized working from home over innovation. This comment was made during a discussion with Stanford students, a video of
In the wake of the recent Made by Google event, where the spotlight was mostly on the new Pixel 9 lineup, the Pixel Watch 3, and the Pixel Buds Pro 2, one unveiling flew under the radar – the new 45W USB-C charger from Google. This upgrade, although not a headline feature, represents a significant
