This EV car has been around for over a decade and it's the least expensive EV.

So if you are thinking on purchasing a used Nissan Leaf, I would suggest you read the link below and do some more research.

Google not a Publisher

Good new for Google when it comes to defamatory article. Since it's not a publishing company the users will have to go direct to the user. So in simple terms google just navigates using a hyperlink to articles. 

Now the publishers will have to do their homework and go after the user themselves which will definitely be costly.

Microsoft AI Edge Problem

Microsoft has a cool AI feature called Read aloud that when it's activated makes listening to your emails and documents seem like a breeze. The synthesized voices are indistinguishable from human narrators. It's a pretty cool way to hear the long email and articles while tending to other things.

If you have not tried it yet, I suggest you give it a try but not that it's not perfect and it still has a lot of bugs that are problematic for many. I just hope that that can correct this before users get discouraged from using this feature.
