691: Cry Me A River (to Cool Off My AI)

Protests erupt across the U.S. in a “Tesla Takedown” while Elon merges his AI and social media empires and dodges jet trackers alongside Taylor Swift; meanwhile, Signal faces government heat over military chat mishaps as OpenAI flexes AGI funding and ChatGPT users flood the internet with 700M freshly minted images. Trump tries to cash in on Truth Social, tanks his meme coin with tariff talk, and wages war on “information silos”—aka your privacy; the Moon may take one for the team with a near-miss asteroid, while a brain-to-voice implant hints at sci-fi becoming science fact. In media and gadgets, Apple teases AI doctors and iPads, Facebook attempts relevance with a friends-only feed, and Kermit the Frog somehow lands a graduation gig—because 2025 is weird.
