It sends two ultrasonic waves that bend around obstacles, creating a sound bubble only the right person can hear. Imagine walking up to a museum exhibit and getting the narration without wearing headphones or bothering anyone else. Love that!
One of the worst phishing scams: It’s coming for Mac owners, with hackers trying to steal your Apple ID. While you’re browsing in Safari, a fake pop-up appears pretending to be a security alert. What makes it extra sneaky? The page you’re on actually freezes, making it feel like your computer’s locked up. If it happens, don’t click anything. Just restart your browser.
📍 Bait and switch: Google found over 10,000 fake listings on Google Maps and is now suing the scammers behind it.

That’s why you need to verify details, folks.

Zoom’s AI is getting smarter: By the end of the month, Zoom’s AI Companion will identify and perform tasks for you. Think scheduling follow-ups, generating documents from meetings and creating video clips. If you’re a Workplace user, you’ll find it under a new Tasks tab. Bonus: It won’t cost you extra, yet.
AI search engines get their sources wrong (paywall link). In a study, chatbots were asked to match news to the correct headline, publisher, date and URL. They almost never admit they’re unsure and just blurt out wrong answers like they’re completely right.
