Google's video streaming strategy has backfired
Google discontinued its sub-$50 Chromecast devices in 2024, exiting the budget streaming market and now only offers a $100 Google TV Streamer. Walmart's Onn brand filled this gap with Android TV streamers starting at $15, but PCWorld reports these devices now face stock shortages and price increases up to $60. This strategy backfired as Google lacks affordable options to compete with Roku and Amazon Fire TV sticks in the budget market. Google hasn't offered a streaming device for under $50 since it discontinued the Chromecast with Google TV in 2024. That's turning out to be a problem.

Why Walmart and OpenAI Are Shaking Up Their Agentic Shopping Deal
After OpenAI's Instant Checkout feature fell short, Walmart is instead embedding its Sparky chatbot directly into ChatGPT and Google Gemini. Since November, Walmart has let some ChatGPT users order a limited selection of products without ever leaving OpenAI's chatbot interface. Sales have been disappointing, a Walmart executive vice president exclusively tells WIRED. The results suggest that a future where chatbots and AI agents take over ecommerce is still a way off, if it ever materializes. Last year, OpenAI made a bet that it could boost revenue by charging a commission on purchases made through ChatGPT.

This Is the Best Razor I've Ever Used--Save Big With This Sale
The Best Razor I've Ever Used Is on Sale Henson Razors are engineered to give a spectacular shave with dirt-cheap generic blades. Razors are one of the most heavily and competitively marketed products in American capitalism. Made with steel and plastic that costs a few pennies, but sold for a thousand percent profit, the razor market is the subject of vigorous academic study and debate. The founder of Gillette famously came up with a model of basically giving away the razor handle so he could sell the blades. Canadian startup Henson has the opposite model, charging $79 for a razor that can give you an excellent shave with dirt-cheap disposable blades that cost about 15 cents each .

AI tools transform Christmas gifting as shoppers turn to chatbots
Rachael Dunfell knew two things about her husband's 21-year-old cousin: that he liked specialised racing bikes and that he was interested in the Vikings. But those pieces of information yielded few ideas for a suitable Christmas gift. So Rachael, 33, from Manchester, turned to artificial intelligence. She inputted his age, his hobby and his interest into Copilot, the Microsoft-owned chatbot, which led her to the website of a niche retailer that sells Viking-themed metal bike parts. It's just something that I really would never have known existed, she said, but it was perfect.
