Musk vs. Wikipedia: Elon Musk says he’s building Grokipedia, an AI-powered rival to Wikipedia using his Grok chatbot. He claims it’ll fix “bias” and “half-truths.” Meanwhile, Wikipedia’s founder basically went, “Good luck, buddy.” Hey, I’m just hoping my own Wikipedia page doesn’t get “corrected” into fan fiction.

Share YouTube videos from a time stamp: On desktop, pause the video where you want it to start. Right-click and select Copy video URL at current time. Or copy the top link from your browser and add &t=2m30s to the end (swap in your own time) to go straight to that moment.
Boost your YouTube channel: If you want the algorithm to help people discover your videos, add channel tags. On desktop, click your profile picture and open YouTube Studio. In the left panel, go to Settings > Channel > Basic info. Under Keywords, fill in things like “lifestyle vlog” or “easy recipes,” and hit Save.
📸 Add Instagram highlights secretly: Create highlights without posting to your story. Open the app, tap your profile button, then the (+) in the top right. Select Story, pick a photo and hit the arrow at the bottom. Under Close Friends, choose someone who doesn’t follow you back and tap Share. Then hit Add to Highlights.
