That’s how much of his fortune Bill Gates plans to leave each of his kids. But don’t start a GoFundMe just yet. He’s worth $102.2 billion, so they’ll still walk away with over $1 billion each. Imagine hearing “you only get a billion” and feeling robbed.

I don’t know about you, but when Friday hits, the last thing I want to do is scroll for an hour trying to find something to watch. Usually, I give up and rewatch The Office for the 10th time.
Not this weekend. I made you a watch list, meticulously crafted between dopamine crashes, for the entertainment-decision-deficient among us. You’re welcome.
Wyoming’s Game and Fish Department built a fake bear on a remote-controlled platform that charges at you going 35 mph. Truly the Teslabear nobody wanted. The test? See if you can whip out bear spray in time. Spoiler alert: Most people would be toast. Your best bet is to keep that spray holstered, and never in your backpack.
🎬 Veo 2 just got a director’s cut: Google’s AI video tool now lets you shoot drone-style, erase logos and distractions like magic and even zoom out to create more scene than you filmed. Hollywood, meet Hal 9000. Simply amazing.
🏠 Gotta be smarter than the scammers: A Michigan woman lost $2,500 after falling for a phony Facebook Marketplace listing. It had a tour video, she paid the security deposit, got the keys … and then showed up to a place that wasn’t even for rent. PSA: Do a reverse image search, verify the address on Google Maps and never pay with Zelle, Venmo or gift cards.
🐎 Kawasaki’s making a robot horse: Yes, seriously. It’s called “Corleo,” and one day you might actually be able to ride it through snow, over rocky cliffs and more. Thanks to goat-like feet and AI. Yeehaw meets Skynet, what could go wrong? Watch the action here.
Google’s AI is helping businesses: Mattel used it to figure out why people were returning the Barbie Dreamhouse. The culprit? A stuck elevator door. AI spotted the issue fast, and Mattel tweaked the assembly. And just like that, ratings went up. Oh, they added Ken’s favorite cheese, bar brie. (What a nice smile you have!)

📦 “Help me”: A brave woman in Florida whispered that to her Amazon delivery driver, who saw marks on her neck and called 911. The police arrested her ex-husband, Frank Mandolini, for allegedly choking her. He still lives with her and their daughter. His excuse? He told the cops he didn’t “cause her to lose her breath.” Sound familiar to you? Call 911 or 800-799-SAFE (800-799-7233), text START to 88788 or go here. I care about you.
🚨 Use WhatsApp? Watch out. There’s a nasty bug going around that lets hackers send you what looks like a JPEG, but it’s actually malware. Click it, and boom: A hidden .exe file could run and infiltrate your system. Blame WhatsApp for misreading certain file types. The fix? Make sure you’re running a version higher than 2.2450.6 to be safe.
