This week, we delve into two significant developments. First, we explore Apple's App Store changes, focusing on third-party payments in the US and the introduction of side-loading apps in the EU. This move, particularly impactful for app developers like Epic Games, tests the boundaries of compliance while offering new monetization avenues.

Next, we analyze Semafor’s venture into AI-generated news with the launch of Semafor Signals. Our discussion spans across the state of the media landscape today & how it came to be, comparison of their AI-generated content's quality to human-written articles, brand implications for media outlets using AI, and assessing AI's potential in journalism. 

Follow us and join the conversation - every week, Viggy & James provide research-based deep dives on the latest news, company strategies and trends in tech.
