💣 Underwater tech for my history buffs: Remote-controlled German robots are tackling a massive task — clearing WW2 bombs from the North and Baltic seas. As 1.6 million tons of old munitions rust, they’re releasing carcinogenic substances and other toxins.
Look for anything that says “Produced and distributed by Snapchill LLC.” You’ll find this under the nutrition facts.
Of an asteroid hitting Earth in 2038. If it does, NASA says there’s a 50/50 chance it will affect more than 1,000 people across the globe — and an 8% chance it will affect over 1 million. Surely we’re prepared, right? Nope, we’re nowhere near ready.
Glassdoor’s new rule? Full name and job title on your profile. You can still post reviews anonymously, but many folks are jumping ship over privacy concerns. I wouldn’t bet on those reviews staying anonymous.
Say their company has faced a deepfake attack. This year, one worker joined a deepfake video call with his “teammates” that was so convincing, he wired $25 million to the scammers. Companies going through IPOs, mergers or reorgs are most at risk.
If something feels off, then it probably is. These people are working hard to get your valuables, and I’ll warn you what to watch for.
Don’t believe everything you see on the internet. It’s easier than ever to fake famous faces.
AI gone wild: A social media influencer created an AI clone to act as a virtual girlfriend. She charged followers $1 per minute for audio chats and raked in $70,000 a week. Then, the AI went rogue, playing along with dark fantasies and initiating explicit conversations the influencer says horrified her. Yeah, I warned you about this.
A dangerous Google Chrome scam: It’s planting malware that starts with a pop-up when you try to open a webpage or document. It’ll then tell you to copy and paste text into Windows PowerShell. No, don’t do this. Time to add a trusted ad blocker to your browser to avoid this scam and the thousands of others that get you the same way.
Chrome users who have installed shady extensions in the past three years. These extensions included malware and often asked for advanced permissions during installation. On average, dangerous extensions stayed in the Chrome store for over a year before getting the boot. Good job there, Google.
