Regarding Google paying Apple $20 billion per year to be the default search engine: [Google paid Apple $20 Billion to be default search engine in 2022](https://appleinsider.com/articles/24/05/02/google-paid-apple-20-billion-to-be-default-search-engine-in-2022)

What I don’t see people outlining here is that this is a revenue sharing deal, not a flat payment. So that $20 billion is a percentage of what Google made on ads through searches done on the iPhone.

Furthermore, it was revealed by Google in the trial that the deal is actually 36% of advertising search revenue on iPhones going to Apple - [Apple Gets 36% of Google Revenue From Search Deal, Witness Says - Bloomberg](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-11-13/apple-gets-36-of-google-revenue-from-search-deal-witness-says)

For me this an important distinction because of Apple’s marketing on privacy; whereas here they are making direct revenue from targeted ad sales, even if it’s another company doing the targeting.

AI diagnostics for health is a discussion about tech. After a 30 year career trying to diagnose, often from memory, an AI assistant would have been invaluable. A calculator for an engineer type of thing.

I was deeply disappointed @Leo didn’t attempt a Yorkshire accent for the story about apostrophes. 😉
