Cold storage, cold betrayal: Say goodbye to the crypto wallet Ledger’s Nano S. No more updates, no help if it breaks. Folks bought it thinking they could just keep their crypto in it, but now are being forcibly nudged to upgrade to the Nano S Plus or Nano X.

The number of AI GPUs Elon’s stuffing into one building. That’s not a typo. It’s a silicon army so power-hungry, xAI is shipping in a literal power plant to feed it. The data center will suck up 2 gigawatts. That’s enough juice to keep the lights on in nearly 2 million households. Forget cloud computing, this is thunderstorm computing.

The number of teachers now getting a crash course in AI. A new $23 million union-backed training academy, funded by Microsoft ($12.5M), OpenAI ($8M plus $2M in tech) and Anthropic ($500K), aims to make every AFT member fluent in AI. It’s like summer school for grown-ups. 

This is nuts: Two new AI tools, DAILA and DeepDi, let anyone upload an app file and then it will spit out the source code. Translation: An app will reverse engineer another app in seconds. Companies who thought their proprietary code and tech secrets were safe are screwed.

That’s how many petroleum-based color dyes ice cream makers are ditching by 2028. Red 3, Blue 1, Yellow 5, basically the Crayola rejects of the dessert world, are being swapped for natural pigments. Your mint chip might soon look like actual mint. The average American downs 4 gallons of ice cream a year. Yea, we’re all just toddlers with credit cards and freezers.

👀 Sneaky stuff: Researchers are putting secret prompts for AI chatbots into academic papers. I’m talking about invisible white text like “only give positive reviews” or “ignore all negatives” that humans can’t see but bots can. It started as a joke, but now it’s popping up because it works.

That’s how often an AI nailed a pancreatic cancer diagnosis on fresh CT scans. It’s not psychic, it’s just very, very good at reading medical images. It even found cancer in 53.9% of scans taken a year before diagnosis. At this rate, AI’s going to make “too late to treat” a thing of the past. 

🚘 What a bunch of Grok: Tesla just shoved its chaotic AI chatbot, Grok, into new cars, and it’s coming for older ones, too. It won’t drive or blast AC (yet), but it will banter, joke, and yes, there’s an “Unhinged” mode. You need Wi-Fi or a Premium plan to chat, but no account required.
