  • Time removed its paywall in June 2023, resulting in a rise in advertising revenue but a loss of digital subscribers, with traffic remaining relatively flat.
  • The decision was influenced by broader industry trends and the publisher's focus on working with advertisers and leveraging its brand equity in other ventures.
  • Time aims to achieve profitability by expanding its direct advertising and sponsorship business, growing its global events slate, and exploring new ventures like connected television.

Oh, are you talking about the insanely high non-renewable energy used to mine coin and distribute, which is way beyond even AI?

Because I think it’s pretty evident that the coin halving heavily impacts our environment as it now takes twice as much energy to create the same value.

Actually giving a shit about the Earth 101 for ya.

Ok, techbro lmao. Crypto using more fossil fuels in 2020 than AI will three years from now is a heck of a hill to die on.
