TOGETHER WITH PACASO

Top investors are buying this “unlisted” stock

When the team that co-founded Zillow and grew it into a $16B real estate leader starts a new company, investors notice. That’s why top firms like SoftBank invested in Pacaso.

Disrupting the real estate industry once again, Pacaso’s streamlined platform offers co-ownership of premier properties – revamping a $1.3T market.

By handing keys to 2,000+ happy homeowners, Pacaso has already made $110m+ in gross profits.

Now, after 41% gross profit growth last year, they recently reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO. But the real opportunity is now, at the unlisted stage.

Until May 29, you can join Pacaso as an investor for just $2.80/share.

Invest before the window closes.

_{This is a paid advertisement for Pacaso’s Regulation A offering. Please read the offering circular at invest.pacaso.com. Reserving a ticker symbol is not a guarantee that the company will go public. Listing on the NASDAQ is subject to approvals. Under Regulation A+, a company has the ability to change its share price by up to 20%, without requalifying the offering with the SEC.}

Should AI write research papers?

• 65% believe it's ethically acceptable for AI to help write papers, while a third disagree; views on AI in peer review are also split.

• Reportedly, the number of papers with signs of AI use is rising quickly.

Google Brings Veo 3 to More Countries and More Users on the Gemini Mobile App

Google is expanding access to its Veo 3 AI video generation tool to more countries and to more users within the Gemini app,

Details:

• Google AI Pro subscribers ($19.99 per month) on iOS and Android can now create up to 10 short videos (8 seconds each) with synchronized audio, including dialogue and sound effects.

• After reaching this limit, users will revert to Veo 2, and for now, it seems that the limit does not reset.

• The Google AI Ultra subscription, priced at $249.99/month, has also expanded to 73 countries.

• AI Pro subscribers in those countries are also getting limited access to Veo 3 through Flow, Google’s AI filmmaking tool.

• Additionally, the company has introduced a visible watermark on all generated videos, except those created using Flow by AI Ultra subscribers.

Google DeepMind’s Veo 3 has been flooding the internet with realistic videos since its release, leaving all other AI video generators in the dust in a shockingly short amount of time, and although Google is expanding access now, it remains very limited. However, at the current pace of advancement, it won’t be long before we see Veo 3.5 or Veo 4, with the already impressive Veo 3 most likely replacing Veo 2.
