Luxury vehicles are turning into spas?

April 6, 2025

💆🏻‍♀️ Luxury vehicles are turning into spas? Brands like Mercedes, Lincoln and BMW are going all-in on in-car wellness (paywall link). The Lincoln Nautilus, for example, has a “Rejuvenate” program with massage chairs, mood lighting and scent diffusers. Kale yeah, this is great! Because nothing says “I’m thriving” like getting aromatherapy in traffic.

What’s replacing your smartphone? Here’s what’s coming next

ChatGPT

Let’s be real: Smartphones are getting out of hand, literally.

We traded pocket space for bigger screens, better cameras and more power. Some of these glass bricks are the size of a paperback novel and about as easy to use one-handed.

Can you guess if it’s brand new or not true?

ChatGPT

Time for a little game I used to have on the show: Brand New or Not True.

Here’s how it works: There are five AI tools for you below. Some are legit. Some are the twisted inventions of my caffeinated brain.

How far a man’s body was flown from the UK to Michigan to be stored in a liquid nitrogen cryogenic chamber. The goal? Freeze now and hope science figures out how to bring him back to life later. Think advancements in AI, stem cell research and nanotechnology. Hey, it’s a long shot, but when you’re already dead, what have you got to lose?

1 hour

Of screen time before bed can cut your sleep by 24 minutes and increase your risk of insomnia by 59%. And no, a blue light filter won’t save you. Bright light of any kind still messes with your body’s sleep signals and tricks your brain into thinking it’s daytime. My advice? Wind down with something chill like music or an audiobook.

How much Meta’s upcoming Hypernova smart glasses might cost. The shades have a tiny screen in the bottom-right corner with built-in apps for snapping photos, opening maps and checking phone notifications. Oh, and you might even get a neural wristband that lets you wave commands like a wizard.

New users on ChatGPT every hour since GPT-4o’s new image tool launched. Wow. No wonder Open AI CEO Sam Altman calls the demand “biblical.” The buzz hasn’t been this high since ChatGPT first launched. With 500 million total users and counting, it’s clearer than ever: AI is here to stay. Or people are just obsessed with making cartoon versions of themselves.

55 years old

The age of an underwater camera trap discovered by a robot submarine at the bottom of a dark Scottish lake. And yes, you guessed right, it was part of a hunt for the Loch Ness Monster. The camera was in such good shape that they actually managed to develop a few photos. Sadly, no Nessie. Just murky water and crushed dreams. What does the Loch Ness monster eat? Fish and ships! 😂

What lawyers might charge in the future, according to the LexisNexis CEO. With AI doing the grunt work like digging up case law and writing summaries, they’ll have more time to focus on the important stuff. Better service, bigger bills. Let’s just hope these lawyers do their due diligence and fact-check the work. In my humble opinion, at $10K an hour, your lawyer should also do your taxes, walk your dog and solve your childhood trauma.

100,000 iMessages

Sent by scammers each day. They’re using iPhone farms (aka groups of phones with rotating Apple IDs) to slip past security filters. If you’ve gotten a text saying you need to act fast about an unpaid road toll, shipping fees or taxes, that’s likely where it came from. Barry texted me, “Call me.” So I called him and said, “Text me” and hung up. I thought it was hilarious! Him not so much.

How many people made Forbes’ 2025 Billionaires List. Leading the pack? Elon Musk at $342B, Mark Zuckerberg at $216B and Jeff Bezos at $215B. Altogether, the list is worth a ridiculous $16.1 trillion! For perspective, they could literally give every person on Earth $2,000, but they won’t.
