McDonald’s will have to defend itself against a $10 billion lawsuit from media mogul Byron Allen over an allegation that the fast food chain doesn’t advertise with Black-owned media.

Through the course of Friday, the pound poked below $1.09 against the dollar — a drop of more than 3 per…

Andalucia has scrapped a ‘wealth tax’ imposed on second homeowners in Spain.This reduces the amount of tax paid by expats on their properties. The new policy is likely to make Andalucia attractive to foreigners wanting a second home in Spain.Among Spain’s 17 regions, Andalucia now has the second lowest tax requirements after Madrid.The ‘el impuesto de patrimonio’, or wealth tax, previously applied to residents and non-residents with a net worth of €700,000 and over. It was levied on worldwide assets for Spanish nationals, and Spanish assets only for non-residents.Andalucia hopes the move will attract investment and lure high-earning taxpayers to…

A new search engine powered by artificial intelligence and natural language processing is offering an alternative to the lists of web pages making up the results of a typical online search. Called Andi, the search engine combines the use of large language models — think OpenAi’s GPY-3 — and live web data to craft an answer to questions posed by searchers. “We use AI and natural language processing to understand a question’s intent,” explained co-founder Angela Hoover. “Andi will look at the top 10 to 20 results for any given query,” she explained to TechNewsWorld. “Then, using large language models,…
