I thought in many places it was related to the upcoming minimum age for social media. To verify age you need an ID. That's how we make it so most kids can't buy cigarettes, alcohol, thc, etc. You could argue social media shouldn't have a minimum age but that'll be the reality it looks like. How do we do that without ID?

More akin to not having code reviews in opinion. If the process isn't there you're just not picking up certain issues.

Microsoft is doing a "good" job slapping AI onto their products. Might not be the best use but I doubt they sit idle.

As someone using a Pixel 3a as their main device that gave me a chuckle.
