TikTok's new app, PineDrama, offers access to microdramas, bite-sized TV shows that can be watched in a series of one-minute episodes. It features a variety of genres, including thriller, romance, and family. The microdrama industry is projected to bring in $26 billion in annual revenue by 2030.
You Can't Automate Good Judgement
AI promises speed and efficiency, but it’s leaving many leaders feeling more overwhelmed than ever.
The real problem isn’t technology.
It’s the pressure to do more with less — without losing what makes your leadership effective.
BELAY created the free resource 5 Traits AI Can’t Replace & Why They Matter More Than Ever to help leaders pinpoint where AI can help and where human judgment is still essential.
At BELAY, we help leaders accomplish more by matching them with top-tier, U.S.-based Executive Assistants who bring the discernment, foresight, and relational intelligence that AI can’t replicate.
That way, you can focus on vision. Not systems.
Anthropic's Claude Code is having its "ChatGPT moment" among both developers and hobbyists, with the viral excitement fueling a selloff in traditional software stocks and investors fearing a new era of AI-built 'selfware.'A Morgan Stanley SaaS index is down 15% YTD, with stocks from major software companies like Intuit, Adobe, and Salesforce dropping double digits.
Elon Musk’s xAI just activated Colossus 2, a single-site AI training cluster. It already draws more power than San Francisco. FYI, you’re looking at: A 1 GW AI supercomputer, purpose‑built for training the Grok series Running on dedicated grid lines, on‑site substations, and liquid cooling. So, Colossus 1 launched in about 122 days. Then, Colossus 2 followed just as fast, at even bigger scale. Everything happens in one location.
The New York Stock Exchange is building a new digital trading platform using blockchain technology to allow for around-the-clock trading of tokenized stocks and exchange-traded funds. The platform will launch later this year, pending regulatory approval.
Anthropic published its fourth Economic Index, providing a deep dive into 2M Claude chats — revealing that most AI usage still looks more like collaboration than replacement, with humans in the driver's seat for the majority of tasks. AI handles around 1/4 of tasks in almost 50% of all jobs, up from 36% last year, but full role replacement is happening at under 10% of firms.
What if the biggest unlock for your CPG brand isn’t a packaging refresh or a promo blitz — but creators telling the story your audience actually wants to hear? That’s exactly what happened when this everyday grocery staple shifted from traditional ads to a creator-led, UGC-powered strategy built for scale.
Instead of pushing polished product shots, the brand activated creators across food, lifestyle, and everyday routines - pairing premium gifting with seasonal moments and culturally relevant hooks. The result wasn’t just content; it was momentum. Snack boards, game-day recipes, self-care rituals, and kitchen-counter creativity started taking over feeds, delivering 560K+ views, 247K reach, 9K likes, 2K saves, and $58K EMV - all from authentic storytelling that felt like discovery, not advertising.
More importantly, it became repeatable. Mid-tier creators expanded visibility. Micro-influencers added warmth and trust. And with Creator.co managing recruitment, briefs, and delivery, the brand built a scalable content engine, everything from 71K-view recipe videos to 600+ save snack hacks. As one marketing leader put it: “The team is accessible, easy to work with, and provides frequent updates — all our data was right at our fingertips.”
When UGC becomes the heart of your strategy, your product stops blending in and starts belonging in the lives (and carts) of your consumers.

How to create landing pages from UI inspirations using Gemini
Find UI inspirations and record a short screen capture while scrolling through the page.
Upload it to Gemini 3 Pro and enter prompt:
“Watch this screen recording and extract a detailed design breakdown. Describe the layout structure, visual hierarchy, colors, typography, spacing, and key UI components. Then rewrite this in markdown format”
Copy the full Markdown prompt into a new Gemini chat.
Adjust the prompt to fit your own product and add:
“Using this design specification, generate a high-fidelity, interactive landing page and provide a live preview.”
