You mention Antarctica once. Just a throwaway joke near your phone, “Wouldn’t it be cool to go freeze my face off?” Suddenly, your phone, laptop, smart TV, smart speaker and even your fridge are pitching you parkas like it’s QVC Arctic Edition. 🥶
Clippy’s final form: “Vibe working” is coming to Word and Excel. Microsoft’s new Agent Mode uses GPT-5 to build entire spreadsheets and docs just from a prompt, while narrating its every move. There’s even a PowerPoint mode that makes decks and does its own research. Somewhere, an intern just burst into tears of joy.

“Hey, Kim, This isn’t tech. I’m the one keeping the peace, at work, at home, with friends. I smooth things over and manage everyone’s moods. It’s exhausting, but if I stop, I’m scared everything unravels. What should I do?” — Megan from Cincinnati
OpenAI adds parental safety controls: After a slew of lawsuits and deaths, ChatGPT will now flag suicidal prompts from teens, with one big but: Both you and the kids have to opt in first.

You’ve got three options: cough up $30, burn 1,000 Microsoft Rewards points, or back up your stuff to OneDrive and pray you don’t run out of storage. Protection ends October 2026.Â
📞 Paid to spill: A new app called Neon pays you to record your calls: 30¢ a minute, max $30 a day for a little self-spying. It then sells your voice data to AI companies.
