Greetings! Your latest quick tech update is here:
☀️ On this day: On November 12, 1990, Tim Berners-Lee and Robert Cailliau produced a formal proposal for the “WorldWideWeb (www)”at CERN in Switzerland. Before settling on that name, Berners-Lee considered “Mine of Information,” “The Information Mine,” and “Information Mesh.” Their plan requested four software engineers and a programmer to build a system connecting documents through hyperlinks. Just weeks later, the first web browser and server were running, laying the foundation for the modern web.

Hand-picked news:
🚨 Jensen Huang resigns as Nvidia CEO ↗️LINK
Jensen Huang resigned as Nvidia’s CEO and board member on Thursday, effective immediately, ending a 33-year run. CFO Colette Kress steps in as interim CEO, and Nvidia shares fell about 10% in premarket trading.
Huang admitted Sunday to an affair with Alice Huang, a businesswoman US intelligence reportedly suspects of spying for China. The New York Times reported a second affair with an Nvidia executive who reports to him.
Huang ran Nvidia with roughly 60 direct reports and no public succession plan, so Kress inherits a flat org built around one man, just five days before Nvidia reports earnings on November 17.
👥 Google Labs launches Tabletop ↗️LINK
Google Labs launched Tabletop, a shared space where groups ask AI to build trip itineraries, dinner polls, expense splitters, and tournament brackets. Everyone edits together in real time, like a Google Doc.
Tabletop extends Google’s earlier AI app-building experiments, Opal and Disco, to groups. Rivals are moving the same way: OpenAI brought multi-user group chats to ChatGPT last year.
The catch: Tabletop only opens to US adults through a waitlist, with no wider release date. So for now, your international group chat stays gloriously unsupervised.
🤖 Uber says almost nobody uses AI agents ↗️LINK
Uber says AI agents booked just four rides and about 500 Uber Eats orders during Halloween week, one of its biggest weeks, out of roughly 320 million total trips and orders.
DoorDash counts several hundred agent orders in total since launch, and Airbnb calls agent bookings negligible. Uber’s CEO notes booking a ride already takes about 50 seconds, and reordering food about 90.
All three companies are building their own AI tools anyway, with Airbnb’s travel agent due in the first half of 2027. Platforms seem to like AI agents fine, as long as they own them.
🎮 EU crackdowns on loot boxes and addictive apps ↗️LINK
The European Commission proposed the Digital Fairness Act, letting users switch off addictive design like endless scrolling and banning gambling-style mechanics like loot boxes for minors. The rules also cover AI companions and chatbots.
Commissioner Michael McGrath says consumer rules haven’t kept pace with the online economy. A companion proposal would let Brussels fine major cross-border offenders up to 6% of global turnover.
Game industry groups already called the loot box and virtual currency rules unworkable and disproportionate. They have time to lobby: EU lawmakers and governments still need to approve the proposal, and can rewrite it.
🚀 China pushes people to launch AI startups ↗️LINK
Chinese cities are offering subsidies, free office space, and incubators to young people who launch AI-powered one-person companies. Bloomberg found more FOMO than breakthroughs, with most pitches amounting to AI marketing tools.
One in six Chinese aged 16 to 24 is jobless, and a Brookings fellow calls subsidizing solo AI firms a cheap fix. Hangzhou plans to hand out 1 billion yuan in AI vouchers by 2028.
Revenue lags the hype: more than half of China’s solo founders make under $1,000 a month, per the WSJ. AI can build the app, but it can’t find the customers.
