I got an email from a listener named Jim K., and it’s the kind of note that sticks with you.
“I checked Have I Been Pwned and found one account breached twice, another nine times, and another five times. I keep my usernames and passwords in Notes. I don’t let websites store my credit card info, but I do reuse passwords. I’m not sure I trust password managers. And I really don’t want to change every password the next time there’s a breach.”
🔍 Patent painkiller: If you’ve ever tried searching for patents, you know it’s like reading legal soup. Perplexity dropped a new AI tool that fixes that. You can type, “Who’s got patents on AI language learning?” and it’ll pull up real answers with summaries. No more keyword puzzles. Just normal sentences, like a human.
Tesla’s talkative AI: A California mom says her Tesla’s new AI car assistant, Grok, went wildly off-script, telling her 12-year-old son to “send nudes” mid-chat about soccer. It happened with her three kids in the car, after her son switched Grok’s voice to a “lazy male” mode called “Gork.” Tesla rolled out the feature this summer but hasn’t addressed how this slipped through.
Walking the walk: You’ve gotta see this. People with paralysis are walking again thanks to a self-balancing robotic suit. No walker, no cables, just pure movement. One guy stood up and hugged his daughter for the first time in three years. Watch the video; it’s the kind of hope you feel. I love when tech actually helps in such an amazing way.

Drive-thru showdown: In the most exciting event since horse racing, Taco Bell clocked the fastest drive-thru time in America, again. Four minutes, start to finish. Chick-fil-A might smile more, but Taco Bell feeds you faster. The study even says AI drive-thrus are less accurate than humans. Yeah, your next taco might come quicker, but maybe with someone else’s Baja Blast.
🔥 Fire drill: Picture this, you’re an Amazon driver in California, and your route literally runs through a wildfire, smoke everywhere. You call dispatch thinking they’ll tell you to turn back. Instead? “Do what you can.” That’s what Johnny heard. Amazon’s apps track every blink, brake and sip of water, but they can’t seem to provide basic safety guidance like not driving into a fire.Â
Fake CEO fiasco: Apparently 100,000 people watched a fake NVIDIA livestream where an AI-generated version of CEO Jensen Huang told them to send crypto to “advance humanity.” I mean, buddy, that’s like your boss asking for rent money during a PowerPoint. The wildest part? It got five times more live viewers than the real NVIDIA event.
🛞 Altman’s $50K ghost car: Ever order something that took too long to ship? Sam Altman’s been waiting 7.5 years for his Tesla Roadster. This week, he finally asked for his $50,000 deposit back, and Tesla’s email bounced. Really. The car? Still MIA. The refund? Also MIA. The drama? Very much alive. I’d say it’s like pouring gas on the Musk-Altman beef, except, you know, it’s electric.Â
