Kevin Rose and Alexis Ohanian acquire Digg for AI-powered revival

The Digg founder and Reddit co-founder have purchased the content aggregator for an undisclosed sum, positioning artificial intelligence as the cornerstone of a platform comeback. Digg, launched in 2004, once rivaled Reddit as the internet's primary news aggregator before its decline following algorithmic changes. The partnership reunites two architects of early web content discovery, betting that AI-driven curation can compete in today's crowded information landscape dominated by established social platforms.
