Summary

Would you pay $900 for a pair of new sneakers that were already dirty? Golden Goose is selling that, branding it “pre-distressed” — And they’re about to IPO at a $3B valuation.

Hollywood had its worst summer opening weekend at the box office since 1995 — But the “theater of the summer” is gonna be big: 4D movie theaters that you can smell, taste, and even feel.

And Elon Musk just raised $6B for his startup, X.ai, to build the “Gigafactory of Compute” — He flexed his biggest competitive advantage: Fundraising.

Plus, Google’s AI just told people to put “glue” on their pizza — Because when it comes to Artificial Intelligence, AI is what it eats… and Google’s AI is consuming strange content.
