The Breakthrough Prize Ceremony, also known as “the Oscars of Science,” is an awards show unlike any other.
Founded and funded by Silicon Valley titan Yuri Milner and his artist wife Julia Milner, Google co-founder Sergey Brin, 23andMe co-founder Anne Wojcicki, and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and his Chan-Zuckerberg Initiative co-founder Priscilla Chan, the Breakthrough Prize recognizes “scientists changing the world” with award statuettes and sizable cash prizes. And on Saturday night, at the ceremony’s 10th edition — the second in a row held on the roof of the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures, with the Hollywood Hills glistening in the background — presenters, performers and audience members included a collection of A-listers that could give the Oscars a run for their money.
One could turn left and spot Bill Gates and Robert Downey Jr. sitting at the same table, or right and find tablemates Bradley Cooper and Rupert Murdoch schmoozing.

Nicole Shanahan, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s presidential running mate, is not only one of the most prominent critics of in vitro fertilization this election cycle — she has made it one of her life missions to change the narrative around the treatment.
As highlighted by Politico, Shanahan has called IVF “one of the biggest lies that’s being told about women’s health today,” according to an interview published in February by the Australian Financial Review.

The first major running mate announcement of the 2024 presidential election cycle came much earlier than usual this week, as White House hopeful Robert F. Kennedy Jr. held an Oakland rally to make the big announcement, concluding weeks of speculation by introducing the young political neophyte to the nation and revealing that he may just have found the ideal addition to his long-shot ticket.
Nicole Shanahan — criminal justice attorney, Silicon Valley philanthropist, possible billionaire divorcée — is a native of Oakland who may just have the ideal rags-to-riches backstory for a political newcomer. Shanahan has spoken about growing up with a family that relied on food benefits and being raised by a schizophrenic father who had lifelong addiction issues. On Tuesday, she told the crowd of her days as an attorney, after completing a law degree a decade ago at Santa Clara University School of Law, working with artificial intelligence to push...

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has selected Silicon Valley attorney turned philanthropist Nicole Shanahan as his running mate in an early-announcement move as the independent presidential hopeful seeks to get his name on ballots in all 50 states for his White House bid.
Kennedy, son of the former U.S. attorney general and senator from New York who was assassinated in 1968, announced that Shanahan would join his campaign at a rally in Oakland on Tuesday. The announcement of a running mate decision this early is a strategic move that looks to assuage some of the concerns around his ballot access in half of the country.
“Nicole has put her interest aside and made the momentous and very, very difficult decision to embark with me on this extraordinary crusade to win back our country,” Kennedy said while introducing Shanahan as his running mate.

Kennedy, who is running an independent campaign for the presidency, made the announcement at an event in Oakland today. CNN and Fox News carried Kennedy’s reveal of his pick; MSNBC reported on it later.
After being introduced by his wife, actress Cheryl Hines, Kennedy told supporters that he wanted someone “I wanted someone with a spiritual dimension, and compassion, and idealism, and above all a deep love of the United States of America.” He said that Shanahan was also a “brilliant scientist, technologist, a fierce warrior mom.”
In her speech, Shanahan said that she didn’t know much about Kennedy as of a year ago, expect for a “mainstream media narrative that was telling me horrible, disparaging things.” She said that a friend recommended that she listen to an interview with him,...

Oscar week is finally here! Ask anyone who has been in the thick of awards season and they’ll likely let out a huge sigh followed by exasperated admission that this has been one of the most hectic runs in recent memory. The condensed calendar, forced by last year’s dual strikes, could translate to more lively bashes, however, as there’s light at the end of the tunnel with Sunday’s Oscars. That can only mean that champagne is currently popping at A-list bashes across Los Angeles, and The Hollywood Reporter is on the scene everywhere from Vanity Fair and Elton John to MPTF’s Night Before. See below for the roundup of all the red carpet action.

As Google celebrates its 25th birthday this month, its CEO Sundar Pichai has reminisced about how technology has changed the way we communicate, create and innovate. Celebrating Google’s rich history of events (the company will officially celebrate its 25th birthday later this month), Pichai said it’s time for some gratitude, and a moment to reflect.
“Years ago, when I was studying in the US, my dad — who was back in India — got his first email address. I was really excited to have a faster (and cheaper) way to communicate with him, so I sent a message.
“And then I waited…and waited. It was two full days before I got this reply Dear Mr. Pichai, email received. All is well,” he wrote late on Tuesday.
Fast forward to a few months ago.
“I was with my teenage son. He saw something interesting, took some quick pictures and shared them with his friends.

San Francisco, Sep 3 (Ians) Tech giant Google, which turns 25 on Monday, has come a long way from being born as a search engine in the garage of Susan Wojcicki — the future boss of YouTube — in a new tech landscape of generative AI, chatbots and social media.
Google was founded on September 4, 1998, by American computer scientists Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were PhD students at Stanford University in California.
The company — now part of the parent group called Alphabet and run by Indian-origin Sundar Pichai — has diversified into several tech streams and launched several products.
The company rapidly grew to offer a multitude of products and services beyond Google Search, many of which hold dominant market positions like Gmail, Google Maps, Google Cloud, Chrome, YouTube, Workspace, Android operating system, cloud storage Drive, Google Translate), video chat app Meet, Pixel smartphones, Google Assistant, Bard AI and more

The Breakthrough Prize ceremony, which honors “scientists changing the world” with sizable cash prizes, came to Hollywood for the first time on Saturday night, having previously been held in San Francisco — and the world’s top innovators were surrounded by more stars than one can see in a telescope.
The ninth edition of the event — which was founded and is financially supported by Sergey Brin, Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg, Julia Milner and Yuri Milner and Anne Wojcicki, and has come to be known as “the Oscars of science” — took place on the open-air roof of the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures.
James Corden hosted, as has been the case in previous years; presenters included Kristen Bell, Lily Collins, Danny DeVito, Robert Downey Jr. (alongside Zuckerberg), Gal Gadot, Ashton Kutcher, Brie Larson, Edward Norton, Leslie Odom Jr., Chris Pine and Chloe Zhao; John Legend and will.i.am performed; and audience members included Christina Aguilera,...

YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki is stepping down from her role after nine years leading the Google-owned company, the executive said on Thursday.
In a message to staff, Wojcicki said she was leaving to “start a new chapter focused on my family, health, and personal projects I’m passionate about.” She will be succeeded by Neal Mohan, most recently YouTube’s chief product officer and Wojcicki’s close lieutenant, who will take on the title of svp and head of YouTube.
Wojcicki was the 16th employee at Google, joining the company co-founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1999 to build out its ad business and analytics products. Google went on to acquire YouTube in 2006 and Wojcicki took on the CEO position at the video platform in 2014.

San Francisco, Jan 21 (Ians) Tech giant Google is preparing to introduce at least 20 artificial intelligence (AI)-powered tools and a search chatbot during its annual developer conference in May this year, amid pressure from OpenAI’s ChatGPT, the media reported.
The chatbot powered by AI, ChatGPT, has overtaken the tech world over the past several months because it can give people the information they need in an understandable way, reports Engadget.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai has declared a “code red” and boosted AI development, as the tech giant sees ChatGPT as a threat to its search business.
According to a slide deck, the tech giant’s AI projects include an image generation tool, an upgraded version of AI Test Kitchen, a TikTok-style green screen mode for YouTube and a tool that can create videos to summarise other clips.

In a follow-up tweet, Musk shared a photo of X’s Twitter ID badge. Musk and Grimes also share a newborn daughter, Y. Musk and Grimes broke up after their second child was born.

Jim Cramer has crowed Tesla founder and CEO Elon Musk as the future King of California.
Cramer, speaking Thursday on CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street,” made the proclamation in light of the Golden State’s pending ban in 2035 on gas-powered vehicles — and the electric car company’s streak of dominance.
“It’s going to be a state of Teslas unless Jim Farley can get that F-150 Lighting out,” Cramer said, referring to Ford’s CEO, in the segment you can watch at the top of this post. “He thinks he can do 600,000 run rate by the end of next year.”
But Cramer then reverted back to the main point, perhaps given the fact parking a large pick-up truck is no easy task in many parts of California.

High-flying Tesla shares have nudged founder and CEO Elon Musk to world’s top billionaire, past Amazon’s Jeff Bezos who had been the world’s richest human since 2017.
Tesla’s uptick has boosted Musk’s wealth to about $190 billion, passing Bezos’ $187 billion, according to Bloomberg. Its Bloomberg Billionaires Index, which tracks the net worth of the top 500 billionaires in near real time, will update at market close.
Musk started the year at $27 billion and his upward trajectory tracked an 800% surge in the stock price of the electric carmaker over the past 12 months. Shares are up 5.8% mid-afternoon at $799. Both entrepreneurs are now well ahead of number 3, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, at $132 billion.

Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin are eight and nine at $81.5 and $78.9 billion.

In a two-act annual meeting Wednesday, Google parent Alphabet ticked off good deeds from a $12 million pledge to further racial equality and 200 new initiatives around Covid-19 — from $800 million in ad grants and loans for small businesses to an expansion of Google Classroom to PSAs on YouTube. Then shareholders took the mic to knock the company’s record on executive pay, diversity and human rights.
Kicking off the marathon 90-minute virtual event, streamed live on YouTube, CEO Sundar Pichai said the pandemic has “torn at the very fabric our community” and that “I want to acknowledge the additional pain caused by the rash of violence against the black community in the U.S.” — most recently the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis that has sparked a week and counting of protests across the nation.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai is getting a big salary bump with his expanded role as CEO of Alphabet.
According to a recent Securities and Exchange Commission filing, Pichai will receive a $2 million salary, plus a $240 million stock package that’s set to take effect in 2020. The stock will be granted over three years and is tied to performance targets.
In 2018, Pichai earned $1.9 million.
His pay increase comes after Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin stepped down earlier this month as heads of Alphabet, Google’s parent company.
Page had been CEO of Alphabet and Brin was president. They will continue to be involved in the tech giant as shareholders and board members.

Sacha Baron Cohen has turned his Silicon Valley ire from Facebook to Google, with the comedian ripping the company’s two co-founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, for stepping down from the tech giant’s parent company earlier this week.
In a tweet posted on Wednesday, Baron Cohen slammed their exit from Alphabet, saying they did little to curb “white supremacy [and] conspiracies” on Google and YouTube.
“Larry and Sergey, first you drop your ‘Don’t Be Evil’ mantra, now you ‘drop out’?” Cohen tweeted, referencing the company’s decision to remove its famous motto from its code of conduct last year.

Larry Page and Sergey Brin, the founders of Google, have left their executive roles at its parent company, Alphabet. Google CEO Sundar Pichai will become CEO of Alphabet while remaining chief at Google.
Page had been CEO of Alphabet and Brin had been president. They will continue to be involved in the tech giant as shareholders and board members.
Google in many ways has defined the modern digital marketplace. While it has amassed tremendous wealth and resources, it faces significant challenges in the form of regulatory scrutiny of its advertising business and the business practices of YouTube, which it acquired in 2006.
John Hennessy, chairman of Alphabet’s board, said it is “impossible to overstate Larry and Sergey’s contributions over the past 21 years. I’m grateful that they will continue their involvement on the board.”
Pichai said he is “excited about Alphabet and its long term focus on tackling big challenges through technology.

Sacha Baron Cohen has courted controversy his entire career, portraying characters, from Ali G and Borat to Bruno, that have pissed off all groups from left to right. He’s an equal-opportunity offender, but his alter-egos have long served to expose the hypocrisies of society by mocking humanity’s worst tendencies. His 2018 Showtime series “Who Is America?” tackles humankind’s dark side head-on by bait-and-switching real-life figures to catch them in their blind spots. In the show, he got Dick Cheney to sign a waterboarding kit, former chief justice Roy Moore to take a pedophile lie-detector test, and “The Bachelor” star Corinne Olympios to endorse the training of child soldiers on camera.

When HBO’s “Silicon Valley” returns for its sixth and final season, the Pied Piper gang will be pivoting one last time to tackle emerging privacy issues, a new internet and some degree of actual success for its perpetually stumbling underdogs.
Which is exactly why it was time to wrap the series with its final seven episodes.
“If the Bad News Bears win the championship, they’re not the Bad News Bears anymore,” says executive producer Alec Berg. “They’re just the Bears. This is a show about people with aspirations. If they achieve their goals, it always felt like the show would stagnate.”
That satirical push-and-pull of knocking on the door of high-tech success, but never succeeding completely has been a consistent challenge.

President Donald Trump’s former fixer Michael Cohen threatened to sue CNBC to get his boss higher placement on the cable network’s list of top business leaders after Cohen’s efforts to rig the polling failed, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Cohen threatened to sue on the dubious legal grounds of “ignoring the will of the people,” WSJ reported, which may explain why the news network did not respond to the threat, and why Trump did not sue, according to the report.
CNBC declined to comment.
The kerfuffle erupted when Trump failed to break into the Top 100 finalists on CNBC’s ranking of people who it determined had the most profound impact on business and finance since 1989, which was the year CNBC went live.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai sent an email to employees saying the technology giant has fired 48 people over the past two years for sexual harassment, including 13 “senior managers and above,” none of whom collected an exit package.
The companywide message comes in response to a blockbuster New York Times story, detailing how Google handed Andy Rubin, the creator of Android mobile software, a $90 million exit package and lauded him even as it kept silent about allegations of sexual misconduct.
Rubin was one of three executives who were accused of sexual misconduct over the past decade that Google protected, the Times reported. In two instances, the executives were ousted — but paid millions of dollars as they walked out the door. A third executive remained in a highly compensated post at the company.
Through a spokesman, Rubin said he voluntarily left Google and denied engaging in misconduct.

Society is on the cusp of space tourism. What will a family vacation look like outside of Earth?
For years we have been told a new space tourism industry is just on the horizon. However, except for a handful of millionaires, taking a vacation in space has not been possible. We take a look at how close we are to commercial space flights, what companies will take us there, and what technologies they will be using.
Space Adventures
Technically, space tourism began in April 2001 when millionaire engineer Dennis Tito made a trip to the International Space Station (Iss). A company named Space Adventures brokered the deal. Tito received cosmonaut training at the famous Star City training center in Russia’s Moscow Oblast and was flown aboard a Soyuz rocket to the Iss where he stayed for nearly eight days. While there he conducted research for his company.

In the days following the 2016 presidential election, Google executives expressed shock and dismay over the election of Donald Trump but urged resect for the democratic process in an internal video leaked to the right-wing news site Breitbart.
The video of all-hands meeting, held on Nov. 10, is already stirring controversy on social media, as it feeds into Trump’s charges of anti-conservative bias on the part of the Silicon Valley search giant. Google has issued a statement saying that nothing in the hour-long discussion suggests political views influence product design.
“Let’s face it, most people here are pretty upset and pretty sad because of the election,” said Google Co-Founder Sergey Brin said at the outset of the meeting, later adding that, “Myself, as an immigrant and a refugee, I certainly find this election deeply offensive and I know many of you do, too.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai addressed the company’s controversial plans to return to China with a “censored” search engine at an internal employee meeting Thursday — but he said there’s no certainty the internet giant ultimately will be able to enter the Chinese market.
“We are not close to launching a search product in China,” Pichai said at Google’s weekly all-hands employee meeting, according to a transcript provided to Bloomberg. “And whether we would do so or could so is all very unclear.”
Google has previously declined to comment on its reported plans to re-enter China. Pichai’s remarks are the first acknowledgement that the company is actively considering how to expand into the Middle Kingdom.

Alphabet, Google’s (and therefore YouTube’s) parent company, just won a passive aggressive email war with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result, the digital giant won’t have to report YouTube’s financial information, at least for now.
Through months of email exchanges beginning in July 2017, the SEC asked Alphabet to clear up its foggy financial filings for Q2 last year. The SEC took a specific interest in YouTube, which it inquired about in its initial letter to Alphabet and then followed up on in a letter dated November 8, 2017.
First in July, the SEC told Larry Page, Alphabet’s CEO, to “Please clarify whether YouTube and Google Play represent or comprise operating segments that are aggregated into the Google reportable segment.” When the SEC failed to receive an adequate reply, the agency followed up, asking Alphabet to further clarify how involved Page and Google co-founder/Alphabet president,...

Donald Trump‘s net worth has taken a nosedive since he turned to politics, according to Forbes.
The magazine’s venerable list of the country’s 400 richest people ranks the president at #248, dropping an astonishing 92 spots from last year. The publication now lists his net worth at $3.1 billion.
Forbes cites several reasons for the fall. Specifically, “a tough New York real estate market, particularly for retail locations; a costly lawsuit and an expensive presidential campaign.” Less than two weeks after being elected president, Trump agreed to pay $25 million to settle lawsuits against the now-defunct Trump University.

“The Executive Orders issued over the past week defy the heart and values that define the best of our nation,” the 47-year-old mother of two wrote on Facebook. “Families have been separated. Frightened children have been detained in airports without their parents. People seeking refuge have been turned away and sent back to the danger they just managed to flee. This is not how it should be in America.
