Taylor Swift’s new album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” was leaked to Google Drive two days early. Swifties were quick to call it an AI deepfake (paywall link). Surprise, the leak was real. Swifties did get a consolation prize: 15 additional songs. Share this with your favorite Swiftie.

It’s been way too long since I shared a big list of handy websites. Dig in, and I’ll bet you’ll find at least a couple you just have to visit. (And none are advertisers — just sayin’.)
Fun fact: Whenever I’m watching a show with Barry that I’m not very into (ahem, “Franklin,” so boring), I open up my photo app and start deleting. It’s my time for a little digital cleanup.
It’s not just junk filling up storage. High-res photos look stunning, but they eat up so much space on your phone. If you want to scale it back a bit, I’ve got the lowdown for you. You can thank me later because you’ll likely never see that annoying “Storage full” notification again.
Tell me more: The ProductFrom website is the perfect match if you ever wonder, “How do I know if a product is from China?” or “Where did this come from?” Their database contains 112,000 products, so there’s a good chance you’ll find what you’re looking for.
Now folks are begging for a real version. The phony “Bond 26” vid “stars” AI versions of Henry Cavill and Margot Robbie. The creator used a mix of AI and existing film clips to create the trailer. Fun fact: Remixing film clips generally falls under fair use; otherwise, this trailer would be banned, James banned.
I used AI recently to write a birthday note, plan a trip to Hong Kong and program my robot. But this tech is still in the infant stages and it has some major blind spots you need to know about.
Ask things like “How many basketballs would you have to stack up to reach the moon?” all day. (It’s 1,595,524,852 by the way.) But when it comes to these four Ps, you’re better off skipping the chatbot.

Keep it simple: Ever seen one of those memes where someone’s microphone caught all the things they said after they meant to send a text? Don’t be that person. When you’re ready to send, just say, “Send.”
Skip the cropped group pic or obvious selfie: For professional photos, go with a slight smile over your biggest grin. Pro tip: Blur the background so the person viewing your profile can focus on your face. If your phone has Portrait mode, use it!

On an Android-based device, you can quickly swipe to the right on the home button to see all your open apps. Want to close one? Just swipe it off the screen. This is worth doing now and then if you never close your apps.
