Wait, what? Ever see a meme and you just can’t figure out why it’s funny? Post it on Reddit to the PeterExplainsTheJoke subreddit, and someone will come to your rescue. I scrolled through and had a lot of “Oh-h-h, I get it now” moments.
Hospitals using AI tool that fakes medical records
Watch out: an AI tool hospitals use is making up medical notes — 8 out of 10 transcripts had fake info, even meds that don’t exist. Plus, Robert Downey Jr. rips into AI, Elon Musk gets pulled into deepfake crypto ads, and Reddit finally sees a profit.

Google Search is dying
Younger people are turning to AI chatbots, TikTok and Reddit for answers instead. Gen-Z is also sticking with older cars to avoid new tech and high costs. Plus, Chipotle is using robots for avocado prep, and we’ll show you how to turn your smart TV into a photo frame.
Wall Street Bets: Reddit's shiny new target
