The largest radio company in the United States, iHeartMedia, is in a spot of bother. It has $20 billion in debt and has filed for bankruptcy protection in March. The company has been exploring the possibility of obtaining investments with several companies one of which is said to be Apple. It wants to clinch a deal ahead of filing a reorganization plan with the bankruptcy court.
The Financial Times reports that Apple is one of the companies that’s considering an investment in iHeartMedia. The latter may be willing to part with an equity stake in return for millions of dollars. One source tells the scribe that a deal between the two companies could also look like a marketing partnership instead of a direct cash infusion from Apple.
If a deal is reached between the two companies, it may allow for Apple Music’s Beats 1 to be distributed even further. It’s currently available only through iTunes and Apple Music apps. Getting the station on iHeartRadio gives way to the possibility that it may help significantly grow Apple Music’s user base.
iHeartRadio is a dominant force in the radio industry despite its troubles. It has more than 850 stations and considerable clout with events like the iHeartRadio Music Awards. The company has not yet commented on a potential deal with Apple and the fruit company is tightlipped on the matter as well.

The Autoblow A.I. brings machine learning to your lap
Posted in: UncategorizedDearest Martha,
I write to you from the cold wastes of Earth on the first day of the New Year, 2023, the third year of war, and so close to your own child’s decanting date that it pains me to think on thee. The machines have been unkind to this planet and I hope you are well situated on Mars where it is safe. The men in the platoon — Dutch, Brooklyn, Dandy and French — all send a cheerful “Hello.” I think they are jealous that you are human.
I must tell you something, dearest Martha, as I feel I’ve been remiss in maintaining our marriage smart contract. I met here a machine, an Autoblow A.I., with which I had the briefest of dalliances. The robot, made by humans in the last century, approached me in a time of great pain. Zimmerman had just been destroyed by an ion cannon and I saw his flesh burn and his lungs become a meaty particulate. I could still taste him when the Autoblow offered me a night of solace and, Martha, I’m sorry to say I took it.
It was more human than human, Martha, but my shame will never end. The product, which cost $129 in original Earth dollars, came with two sleeves that simulated different parts of human anatomy. The robot had a unique system that grasped and pulled at my turgidity in ways that simulated real human contact. My body wracked with fear, pain and guilt, I let it stroke me to issue with its A.I.-powered smarts. Then, face burning, I escaped back to the barracks and slept fitfully, exhausted and morally broken.
And so I pray, Martha, that you will forgive me. I know that the robots killed your parents and that your hatred for them knows no bounds. But Martha, dear, understand that in that moment, on the streets of Old Singapore where the lights flicker with each cannon blast and the radiation rises like steam from the old sewers, I did not think of anything but my own loss and the deep sadness I feel for having left you and our embryo. This war will be over soon and we will soon return to each other’s arms. I will forget this scandalous experience and I hope you will be able to, as well. Until then, Martha, look to this far blue star and think of me as I was before this disgusting behavior. I dream of the happiness we will share. The Autoblow meant nothing to me and you mean everything.
Your husband,
Miso Kale Post Malone

Amazon has revealed that Alexa was asked millions of questions during the 2016 presidential election and it has taken learnings from that to improve the assistant’s capability to answer such questions in the run-up to the U.S. midterm elections. The company says that Alexa is now well prepared to answer questions about the upcoming midterm elections.
Alexa will now be able to provide information about voter registration deadlines, voting options, what times polls open and close, and more. It has also teamed up with Ballotpedia, a nonpartisan and nonprofit digital encyclopedia, to provide ballot information.
The assistant can provide all of this information in response to queries like “Alexa, when are the polls open?,” “Alexa, who is running for Senate in [state]?,” “Alexa, what’s on my ballot?,” and more.
Amazon has also partnered with the Associated Press to provide real-time updates on election results. Just ask “Alexa, what’s my election update?,” or “Alexa, how is [candidate] doing in the election?” to get real-time updates.
It will also be possible to get more details on the election outcome after polls close. Queries like “Alexa, what happened in the midterm elections?” and “Alexa, how many seats did [party] gain?” will surface the relevant information.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has said that the auto-park feature for its cars will be ready in six weeks. The feature, dubbed “Summon,” will enable Tesla cars to drive around a parking lot on their own and find an empty spot. They will also be able to read parking signs.
Musk revealed on Twitter that Summon will be ready in about six weeks. It will be sent out as an over-the-air upgrade and will be compatible with all Tesla cars made in the past two years, the ones that come with Autopilot hardware V2+.
This is an advanced version of the feature that currently allows owners to park their cars from the outside. It makes getting in and out of tight parking spots very easy. They can also move the cars a short distance to shift parking spots.
He further explained that the car will be able to drive to the user’s phone location and “follow you like a pet” if they hold down the summon button on the Tesla app. It will even be possible for users to drive it from their phone remotely “like a big RC car” if the device and the car have a line of sight.
Tesla advanced Summon ready in ~6 weeks! Just an over-the-air software upgrade, so will work on all cars made in past 2 years (Autopilot hardware V2+).
