Exclusive: VSCO is releasing its own camera app — the company’s first new standalone release in a decade.
It’s called Capture, and it will let users pick from 50 of VSCO’s popular photo filter presets before snapping a shot. There’s a manual mode, too.
US release is planned for later this summer.

Scoop from @natalielung.com: Uber is expanding beyond rideshare and delivery into a new business: finding gig workers to handle tedious AI data labeling work for other companies.
I just want to not go broke streaming the “Elmo’s World” catalog.
I know there’s nothing original I can say about parenting, but I did not realize exactly what a big business Elmo had turned into.
