Quick Glance: San Francisco's Real Estate Market in Turmoil
  • The city of San Francisco, once seen as the shining star of the West Coast, is now on the verge of collapse, with seemingly no one raising the alarm.

  • In particular, the city's housing market has been severely impacted over the past year, with prices plummeting and homeowners fleeing en masse.

  • Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, did not hold back in his comparison of San Francisco's issues to those of New York City, stating that the Bay Area is 'in far worse shape.'

  • San Francisco is failing in all aspects, leading to a quiet collapse of its housing market, where once luxurious properties are now being offered at significant discounts.

Quick Glance: Waymo Robotaxi Incident with Unicyclists in San Francisco
  • A self-driving Waymo taxi in San Francisco was filmed passing unicyclists and scooters, driving down the wrong side of the street.

  • The incident occurred at the intersection of Mission and First in the South of Market district around 9:30 PM PT on Friday, where a crowd of electric-powered unicyclists and other riders were flowing down the street.

  • The footage shows the cycling crowd crossing an intersection, with the Waymo taxi following closely behind, initially staying in the right lane but then shifting into the left lane to pass the group.

  • After a tense moment, a brave unicyclist forced the car to stop by pulling out in front of it, allowing the Waymo to return to the correct lane. The incident caused controversy and raised concerns about Waymo's safety protocols.

Congress tells China: sell TikTok or we’ll ban it
Quick Glance: ByteDance Would Consider Closing TikTok in US Over Sale, Sources Claim
  • ByteDance would prefer to cease TikTok operations rather than engage in a sale if all legal avenues are exhausted to combat potential legislation banning the platform in US app stores, as per four sources.

  • Despite TikTok's massive popularity with over a billion users, it remains unprofitable, contributing a small fraction to ByteDance's overall revenues and daily active user base.

  • ByteDance stated on Thursday in a release on Toutiao, a media platform it possesses, that there are no intentions to sell TikTok, in response to claims from The Information about ByteDance exploring sale scenarios for TikTok's US operations excluding the recommending algorithm for user videos.

  • As of December, ByteDance's valuation stood at $268 billion when it proposed a buyback of approximately $5 billion in shares from investors.
