gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-12-06 22:50:06

The U.S. Air Force seems to have finally found a good use for Elon Musk’s Tesla Cybertrucks: blowing them up with missiles. The War Zone was first to spot that America’s aerial defense wing plans to purchase two of Tesla’s rolling heaps of metal for “use as targets for precision munitions during testing and training.” Associated contracting documents seem to imply that America’s “enemies” may soon be using Cybertrucks and that, as a result, the Air Force needs to practice shooting at them.

After a second-quarter earnings beat, Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky shared his thoughts on the company’s AI strategy, cautioning investors that AI chatbots can’t yet be thought of as the “new Google.” That is, AI chatbots, while potentially driving new leads to the travel and services business, aren’t entirely a replacement for the referrals that the dominant search engine brings. At least not at this time. “I think we’re still kind of feeling out the space,” the exec told investors on the Q2 earnin

United Airlines passengers across the country found themselves stranded, confused, and angry on Wednesday as a massive technology failure triggered a nationwide grounding of flights.
