This year I've worked with @RayDalio and others to give away 20,000 $50 charity gift cards. Grab one and direct the gift to a charity of your choice. This holiday, instead of giving more stuff, let's focus on giving to those most in need. Get your 🎁 here: https://t.co/rbF7ltdOm5

New to Artifact: Follow Writers. We all have our favorite writers, now you can follow them on Artifact. We'll prioritize their articles at the top of feed. We believe in helping writers build an audience and giving more control to users. https://t.co/fdFywORsS2

Today we launched a summaries tool on Artifact. For those with info overload, this is a great tool to have the context you need more quickly before diving in more deeply.

[ARTIFACT @Artifact_News]

Now available on Artifact: Summaries Tool. Use AI to summarize articles before diving in and reading. For fun we even added different summary styles (emoji-only, Gen Z, poem, etc.) Read more in our blog post here.
