⚙️ Don’t reinstall Windows: Wiping everything can fix performance issues, but there’s a smarter way. Just reset without losing your personal stuff. Go to Settings > System > Recovery > Reset PC, then choose Keep my files. It’ll remove apps and settings but keep your docs and photos. PSA: Always back up first, just in case.

When people hear “AI,” they think of deepfakes, bogus essays or robots stealing jobs. But there’s something way bigger happening behind the scenes: AI is low-key helping doctors beat diseases that terrify us. Like actually saving lives.
Safe Wi-Fi anywhere: Using public Wi-Fi is risky no matter where you go. It doesn’t make a difference if you stay at a five-star luxury hotel, have lunch at your hometown diner or you’re at the airport. The easy way to protect yourself? Turn on a VPN.
Of the images on Adobe Stock are AI-generated. That’s over 300 million in just three years. For comparison, it took 20 years to hit that number with real photos. The downside? Adobe is now limiting uploads and rejecting more files. Not great news if you’re a human with a camera.
🤳 Am I hot or not? That’s what people are asking ChatGPT. They upload photos, ask for an honest opinion, then get glow-up advice (think skin care routines or makeup tips). Kinda sketchy now that ChatGPT has a shopping feature that recommends products. AI meets e-commerce. Its advice could be influenced by ads, not what’s actually best for you.
That’s how much Google wants for the Gemini AI Ultra VIP pass, monthly. You get AI everything: video gen, doc summarizing, Chrome copilots and a personal bot concierge named Mariner that’ll shop online for you. It also includes YouTube Premium and 30TB of storage because apparently, your digital clone needs closet space.
✍️ Faulty AI detectors: More students are being accused of using tools like ChatGPT when they didn’t. Like Leigh, who got a zero on her assignment after Turnitin said it was bot-written (paywall link). She appealed, but now records herself working. Others even track their keystrokes to avoid false positives. What a mess.
That’s the automatic price hike coming to Adobe Creative Cloud All Apps subscribers on June 17. Why? The new plan, now called Creative Cloud Pro, includes AI tools like Generative Fill in Photoshop. Individual annual plans will jump from $60 to $70 a month, and team plans will go from $90 to $100. At least the bugs will be free.
“What was that?” That used to be my husband’s catchphrase after a virus took away the hearing in his right ear. Thankfully, hearing aids changed everything. These tiny tech marvels have made a huge difference in his life. If your hearing isn’t what it used to be, maybe you need hearing aids. You’ll be amazed at what you’ve been missing.*

Boots over bots: Two people had to be rescued from a snowy mountain near Vancouver after following advice from the bot. They showed up in sneakers (dumb), and said ChatGPT didn’t warn them about the weather. Rescuers had to bring boots and ski poles. Next time? Use your common sense and talk to an actual human.
