    You.com, the AI search engine, is launching a paid subscription.

    You.com was one of the first search engines to incorporate a ChatGPT-style chatbot, and now it’s one of the first to put unlimited access to AI tools behind a paywall.

    The new YouPro subscription costs $14.99 / month (but currently costs $9.99 / month for a limited time), and gives you access to unlimited AI chat searches, unlimited AI image generation, unlimited text generation, and more. Will Microsoft and Google be next?

    Reddit’s CEO is hosting an AMA about API changes tomorrow.

    On Friday at 1:30PM ET, Reddit says its CEO Steve Huffman will host an AMA on r/reddit about “the latest API updates, including accessibility, mod bots, and third-party mod tools.”

    This comes just after Apollo, one of the most popular third-party apps for Reddit, announced that it’s shutting down due to the platform’s API policy changes. Other subreddits are planning to go dark in protest of these changes on June 12th.

    Path of Exile 2: our latest look.

    We only got the briefest of teases at Path of Exile 2 during the Summer Games Fest, but it really left me wanting more. I’m especially looking forward to seeing how it stacks up as a free alternative to Diablo IV. We don’t have a release date yet, but the trailer says to expect more information on July 28th.
