A new app makes it possible for photographers to instantly share photos with the people around them. Aircam is aiming to fill an overlooked hole in the industry: instantly automating the downloading, editing, and sharing process that comes along with traditional photography gigs.

"[Aircam] allows you to see event photos instantly,” Aircam Chief Technology Officer David Hopkins told Cheddar. “You can do it yourself shooting with an iPhone [or] you can have a professional photographer shoot photos, and you’re able to see those photos in real-time.”

The platform recently launched new technology that finds pre-vetted photographers who use Aircam. Users can connect with these photographers almost instantly to book a shoot or event.

A user doesn't require the app to view the pics, either.

“Those photos [are] instantly available to people nearby, not just people with the app,” Hopkins said. “People who just have a phone [are] able to go to their phone’s browser and see those photos instantly.”

The app won’t let just anyone send photos around, though. People wanting a private sharing group can create a unique link for their partygoers to access photos. No matter if photos are shared publicly or privately, all of the pictures come through touched up and ready to post; so a user might say ‘later’ to posting latergrams.

Starbucks’ Change Flushes Out a Debate Over Public Restroom Access
Starbucks’ decision to restrict its restrooms to paying customers has flushed out a wider problem: a patchwork of restroom use policies that varies by state and city. Starbucks announced last week a new code of conduct that says people need to make a purchase if they want to hang out or use the restroom. The coffee chain's policy change for bathroom privileges has left Americans confused and divided over who gets to go and when. The American Restroom Association, a public toilet advocacy group, was among the critics. Rules about restroom access in restaurants vary by state, city and county. The National Retail Federation says private businesses have a right to limit restroom use.
Trump Highlights Partnership Investing $500 Billion in AI
President Donald Trump is talking up a joint venture investing up to $500 billion for infrastructure tied to artificial intelligence by a new partnership formed by OpenAI, Oracle and SoftBank. The new entity, Stargate, will start building out data centers and the electricity generation needed for the further development of the fast-evolving AI in Texas, according to the White House. The initial investment is expected to be $100 billion and could reach five times that sum. While Trump has seized on similar announcements to show that his presidency is boosting the economy, there were already expectations of a massive buildout of data centers and electricity plants needed for the development of AI.
