A Shift Towards Expanded Branding
While corporate sponsorship is not new to the White House Easter Egg Roll, but the Trump administration has initiated an opening up to more branding possibilities, with sponsorship deals costing anywhere from $75,000 to $200,000, reported Business Insider. The increased sponsorships are a new development for the White House, as per the report.
Executive director of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, Donald Sherman told CNN in an interview, "I understand that there are corporate sponsors for the Easter Egg Roll. What I have not seen before is sort of the outright solicitation and the use of the imprimatur of the White House to give corporate sponsorship," quoted Business Insider.

The Browser Company launches AI web browser ‘Dia' in invite-only beta
Dia, a new AI web browser developed by The Browsing Company, was launched in beta on Wednesday, June 11. The browser provides users with an in-built AI interface. It is currently available for use by invite only. 'Dia gets more personalized with every tab you open. This is 100x more context than ChatGPT, automatically. And we believe it changes what's possible with AI,' Josh Miller, the CEO of The Browsing Company, said in a post on X. With Dia, the company is looking to enable easier access to AI tools without visiting sites like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. Existing Arc members will also be able to access Dia. Current Dia users will further be able to send invites to other users, the company said. For years, web browsers have been the main way in which people access and use the internet. However, the rise of AI has posed an existential threat to traditional web browsers, prompting companies to race toward integrating AI directly into the browsing experience. Dia is a browser that is built on top of Chromium, the open source browser project led by Google. The browser interface looks familiar with a URL bar for users to type in their search queries. However, this URL bar can also serve as the interface to prompt an in-built AI chatbot. This chatbot can carry out searches on the web and summarise uploaded files. It is also capable of automatically switching between chat and search modes, according to a report by TechCrunch. In addition, Dia appears to have screen awareness as users can ask questions about the tabs that they have open. The AI chatbot can also generate a document with text based on the content from those tabs. Dia becomes more personalised with more use, as per the company. 'Every time you open a new tab, Dia's memory automatically takes notes for you […] These notes are encrypted & stored locally. We don't take notes on sensitive pages like banking,' Miller said. It also has an opt-in feature called History where users can choose to give the browser access to seven days of their browsing history in order to receive more personalised answers to their search queries. Another feature on Dia called Skills provides short strings of AI-generated code that can serve as shortcuts for various settings. Last year, The Browser Company launched a web browser called Arc. While it gained popularity among a select group of users, the firm could not scale the browser effectively with its complicated interface acting as a barrier for mass adoption. Since then, the company has reportedly been working on developing a browser with AI at the heart of it. Other companies have also sought to integrate AI features into their web browsers. For instance, Google recently announced that it is bringing Gemini to Chrome users in the US. This is in addition to AI Mode and AI Overviews in Google Search. Opera Neon, on the other hand, has started giving users access to AI agents capable of autonomously building mini-applications and carrying out other minor tasks on their behalf.

Meta rolls out AI-powered video editing across apps and web: How the feature works, eligibility and more
Meta has announced the rollout of a new generative AI video editing feature, now available on the Meta AI app, website, and the Edits app. The tool is aimed at simplifying video editing for users without professional experience, allowing them to transform short-form videos using a selection of pre-set AI prompts. The launch is part of Meta's broader effort to integrate AI-driven content creation tools across its platforms. Inspired by its Movie Gen models, the current offering allows users to apply a variety of transformations to 10-second segments of their videos. The edits can alter elements such as clothing, location, and visual style, offering an accessible entry point for personal and creative video customisation. Users can upload videos directly through the Meta AI app, Edits app, or the website. From there, they can choose from over 50 prompts to apply to their video clip. The transformation options range from stylised effects—like converting footage into a graphic novel or vintage comic book—to atmospheric changes, such as turning a gloomy outdoor scene into a dreamy, soft-focus visual complete with sparkles and colour filters. Another preset allows for a gaming-inspired transformation, adding video game-style visuals and character designs, including neon lighting and battle-themed outfits. The edits are rendered by Meta AI and made available for free for a limited time, although users can only transform up to ten seconds per video during the trial period. Once edited, videos can be shared directly to Meta's social platforms, including Facebook and Instagram, via the Edits and Meta AI apps. The web version also allows for publishing to the Discover feed, expanding the reach of user-generated content within Meta's ecosystem. The company says it has collaborated with content creators to develop prompt styles that resonate with digital audiences. The tool is being positioned not only as a creative outlet for casual users but also as a production aid for social media influencers and video creators looking to streamline their workflows. Available in the United States and more than a dozen other countries, the feature marks Meta's initial foray into consumer-facing AI video editing. According to the company, more advanced functionality is planned for later this year, including the ability to customise video edits using free-form text prompts.
