At Our AI, we never use AI tools to directly generate articles. Instead, we use them to search for sources and assist us in our process of data synthesis. I’ve been writing for several years now, and I have since developed a particular fondness for the em-dash, a powerful tool used to connect two complete ideas within one fluid, extended sentence. Unfortunately for me,...

Digital advertising in 2025 is a pyramid scheme, and you’re not the villain for opting out. The real problem isn’t users dodging ads, it’s the lazy, bloated model that made skipping them a necessity. Pageviews are why we have clickbait headlines, endless listicles, broken UX.

Another common trend is to adapt business models to appeal heavily to Generation Z.

Counterspeech's impact varies; real-world, scalable tests are needed. Interdisciplinary collaboration is key to automate effective hate mitigation.

Early-stage investors often use convertibles (like SAFEs or CCPS), not equity, because it lets them delay valuation, protect downside risk, and adjust their actual stake later. Founders mistakenly think money equals equity, but convertibles give investors flexible, senior rights without setting a fixed price. If you’re not modeling conversion terms early, you’re not seeing the real dilution coming.
