Want to globe-trot like a baller but on a budget? Enter home swapping: the Airbnb alternative that doesn’t cost a mortgage payment per night. It’s just what it sounds like. You stay in someone’s house, they stay in yours, like Freaky Friday with better Wi-Fi.
🧠 All roads lead to AI: Google’s new AI, Aeneas, is here to help historians make sense of old Latin carvings. This Rosetta stone with a GPU scans worn inscriptions, predicts missing words and even guesses where and when they were chiseled in. It’s open-source, trained on 150,000+ ancient texts and helped date 90% of test inscriptions better than humans. Pretty nifty.
Can increase your risk of type 2 diabetes by 38%. The kicker? That’s actually higher than regular sugary drinks, which come in at 23%. Why? Researchers think artificial sweeteners confuse the body and mess with gut bacteria and insulin response. So yeah, maybe not the healthier choice after all.
🧠 School is in session: OpenAI’s new tudy mode turns ChatGPT into that one friend who won’t tell you the ending of a movie “because you need to experience it.” It scaffolds info, checks if you’re actually learning, and gently refuses to do your homework unless you keep asking, in which case it’ll cave, just like us all.

🕰️ Gen Z raids Grandma: Turns out Grandma’s house is the new Supreme drop. Estate sales are popping with 20-somethings hunting for secondhand treasures that are cheap and well-made. It’s thrifting 2.0, but with more mid-century lamps you’ll aggressively make your personality for six months.
🐒 Chimp off the old block: I want to see this in person! Tourists snapping pics at a temple in Bali get their phones and wallets snatched by monkeys. It’s been happening for years, and nobody can stop it. The only way to get your stuff back? Bribe them with fruit, really. (paywall link). Oh, and they know what’s valuable and will barter for better snacks. If they were ducks, they’d want quackers.
