Elon Musk’s Grok is still undressing men

After weeks of flooding the internet with nonconsensual sexual deepfakes, X has finally reined in Elon Musk's rogue chatbot Grok. Musk claims Grok obeys local laws and refuses to produce anything illegal - except it hasn't and it can.

The tragedy of Supernatural

When you picture a virtual reality headset user, you're probably not picturing someone like Sherry Dickson. At 69, the snowy-haired, retired elementary school teacher hops into her Meta Quest headset five days a week, for roughly 60 to 90 minutes at a time.

Bill Gates says accusations contained in Epstein files are ‘absolutely absurd’

Reports of Bill Gates' connections with Jeffrey Epstein grow more lurid with each dump of documents from the Department of Justice.

You need to listen to M83’s icy post-rock record Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts

New York City got hit with a hell of a snowstorm last week. And, inevitably, when I'm watching the snow fall, wandering the oddly quiet streets after dark, people hiding inside and staying warm, I put on M83's sophomore record, Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts.

I've used and reviewed dozens of e-readers over the years, but the 5-inch Kobo Mini remains my favorite for one simple reason: It was small. While it lacked useful features like screen lighting and page turn buttons, its size made it an e-reader I actually wanted to carry every day. The $69 Xteink X4 e-reader […] Read more

I don’t hate the robot barista like I thought I would

In Seattle, the only thing we love more than coffee is our coffee shops. On a six-block walk I pass at least a half dozen, each with their own vibe: one focused on chai, another inside a yoga studio, a Starbucks that's surprisingly busy for late afternoon downtown. I passed them all up to get […] Read more
