“This is a temporary action out of an abundance of caution, as safety comes first for us, Joe Benaroh, head of business operations at X, said in a statement.

We remind you that Taylor Swift was voted “Person of the Year” by Time magazine in 2023 after breaking all music records with her global tour and becoming the most streamed music artist in the world.

On Friday, White House press secretary Caryn Jean-Pierre described the fake images as “disturbing” and said social media companies have a duty to prevent the spread of such false information.

Jean-Pierre said during a briefing that the lack of a fight against fake images, probably created by artificial intelligence, affects women more.

An image of Swift shared on X was viewed 47 million times before the account was suspended, according to a New York Times report.

Elon Musk acquired Twitter in 2022 and has been criticized for his own controversial posts and for his efforts to overhaul the platform’s content moderation policies. Many advertisers on the platform pulled their spending, fearful of appearing next to damaging posts.

Musk and X CEO Linda Iaccarino formulated a new policy called “free speech, not reach,” which limits the distribution of some posts but refrains from deleting them.

]]> Microsoft Concludes Ten-Year Deal with Nvidia https://devstyler.io/blog/2023/02/22/microsoft-concludes-ten-year-deal-with-nvidia/ Wed, 22 Feb 2023 10:43:39 +0000 https://devstyler.io/?p=101891 ...]]> Microsoft and NVIDIA announced that the companies have agreed to a 10-year partnership to provide Xbox PC games on NVIDIA’s GeForce NOW gaming service, which has more than 25 million users in over 100 countries.

“This partnership will help grow NVIDIA’s catalog of titles to include games like Call of Duty, while giving developers more ways to offer streaming games. We are excited to offer gamers more ways to play the games they love.”

said Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer.

The agreement will allow gamers to stream Xbox PC titles from GeForce NOW on PCs, macOS, Chromebooks, smartphones and other devices. It will also enable Activision Blizzard PC titles, such as Call of Duty, to be streamed on GeForce NOW once Activision’s acquisition by Microsoft is completed.

“Combining the incredibly rich catalog of Xbox first party games with GeForce NOW’s high-performance streaming capabilities will propel cloud gaming into a mainstream offering that appeals to gamers at all levels of interest and experience. Through this partnership, more of the world’s most popular titles will now be available from the cloud with just a click, playable by millions more gamers.”

said Jeff Fisher, senior vice president for GeForce at NVIDIA.

The partnership delivers increased choice to gamers and resolves NVIDIA’s concerns with Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard.

Microsoft and NVIDIA will begin work immediately to integrate Xbox PC games into GeForce NOW, so that GeForce NOW members can stream PC games they buy in the Windows Store, including third-party partner titles where the publisher has granted streaming rights to NVIDIA. Xbox PC games currently available in third-party stores like Steam or Epic Games Store will also be able to be streamed through GeForce NOW.
