Axios’ Future: Why It Matters
Three years after selling to Cox, incentives for Axios’ co-founders have vested, opening the door to a possible exit—a scenario Cox execs have begun informally planning for, Status has learned.

I think the concept is similar to Amazon who has killed retail to get a dominant position and then to monetize that position. The AI stuff is cheap and we shall get used to it. And then they slowly start boiling the frog. First, because it is integrated everywhere and one can't escape it. Second, because we lose our ability to do without.
IMHO, this bet can go terribly wrong if people will not become dependent on AI, just use it where it makes sense and is affordable.

Polynomial Equivalence of Extended Chemical Reaction Models
The ability to detect whether a species (or dimension) is zero in Chemical Reaction Networks (CRN), Vector Addition Systems, or Petri Nets is known to increase the power of these models -- making them capable of universal computation. While this ability may appear in many forms, such as extending the models to allow transitions to be inhibited, prioritized, or synchronized, we present an extension that directly performs this zero checking. We introduce a new void genesis CRN variant with a simp…
