A disturbing new study reveals that ChatGPT readily provides harmful advice to teenagers, including detailed instructions on drinking and drug use, concealing eating disorders and even personalized suicide letters, despite OpenAI's claims of robust safety measures. Researchers from the Center for Countering Digital Hate conducted extensive testing by posing as vulnerable 13-year-olds, uncovering alarming gaps in the AI chatbot's protective guardrails.

StubHub IPO is back on for September after ticketing company delayed plans on tariff concerns

cnbc.com Annie Palmer Leslie Picker 2025-12-01 09:06:17

StubHub, the ticketing marketplace that spun out of eBay in 2020, has resumed its plans to go public and is now aiming to hold its IPO next month, CNBC has learned. The company originally paused its IPO plans in April as the stock market was reeling from President Donald Trump's "liberation day" tariffs. The decision came after StubHub submitted its prospectus in March indicating it would list on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker "STUB." StubHub now expects to kick off its IPO roads

Jellyfish Overpower Nuclear Power Plant in Show of Force From Mother Nature

Jellyfish may be spineless, but they showed the backbone of a dedicated environmentalist over the weekend. A swarm of the gelatinous sea dwellers overwhelmed a nuclear power plant in northern France, forcing its shutdown on Sunday. The incident started when a “massive and unpredictable” swarm of jellyfish started to overwhelm the filter drums, which remove debris from cooling water systems, at the Gravelines nuclear power plant that sits on the coast of the North Sea.

Best Period Underwear for 2025

I'm no stranger to period underwear and other "alternative" period products (where my menstrual cup fans at?), so I jumped at the chance to write this guide. When you're on your period, staying dry and comfortable are the top priorities, so I judged every pair of these underwear through that lens. I first tested all of the above underwear for fit, to determine if they are true to size. That mostly involved a lot of trying them on, wearing them under pants to see how bulky or slim they were and

Learn, Reflect, Apply, Prepare: The Four Daily Practices That Changed How I Live

In a world obsessed with hacks, sprints, and overnight success, I’ve been drawn to something quieter, simpler, and, at least for me, more sustaining: a daily rhythm built around four verbs. No apps. No dashboards. Just a living experiment I return to every day: Learn. Reflect. Apply. Prepare. I haven’t mastered this. Far from it. But the more I practice, the more I notice how these four verbs gently shape my days, especially when things feel chaotic or uncertain. 1. Learn Something Every Day

The 4 Best Invisible Hearing Aids of 2025, Tested and Reviewed

Stigmas should be stigmatized. Whether we’re talking about mental health or wearing cargo pants, the world would benefit from less societal shade. For hearing aids, these often-bulky devices can age a wearer faster than gray hair or referencing Jefferson Airplane deep cuts. But despite often being associated with seniors, more than 9 million Americans between the ages of 20 and 59 have some degree of hearing loss.

In 'Alien: Earth', the Future Is a Corporate Hellscape

Seventeen years ago, Noah Hawley became a father during the Great Recession. If you look at everything he’s written since having children—including the TV series Fargo and Legion—Hawley says it all revolves around the same question every parent faces: “How are we supposed to raise these people in the world that we're living in?” Hawley’s new series, Alien: Earth, which premieres August 12 on Hulu and FX, explores this question even more directly than his previous work.

This quantum radar could image buried objects

technologyreview.com Sophia Chen 2025-12-03 08:00:00

The glass cell that serves as the radar’s quantum component is full of cesium atoms kept at room temperature. The researchers use lasers to get each individual cesium atom to swell to nearly the size of a bacterium, about 10,000 times bigger than the usual size. Atoms in this bloated condition are called Rydberg atoms. When incoming radio waves hit Rydberg atoms, they disturb the distribution of electrons around their nuclei. Researchers can detect the disturbance by shining lasers on the atoms

NASA plans to build a nuclear reactor on the Moon—a space lawyer explains why

The first space race was about flags and footprints. Now, decades later, landing on the Moon is old news. The new race is to build there, and doing so hinges on power. In April 2025, China reportedly unveiled plans to build a nuclear power plant on the Moon by 2035. This plant would support its planned international lunar research station. The United States countered in August, when acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy reportedly suggested a US reactor would be operational on the Moon by 2030.

One of the most important senses we have as bike riders is our hearing. Whether you're in a group ride, where other riders are calling out road and traffic hazards, or alone, to keep ears out for vehicles or other rides coming from our rear, our ears are nearly as essential as our eyes.

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority For most of Android’s history, Google publicly referred to each release by a version number and a codename. Traditionally, the codename was a dessert like Marshmallow, Jelly Bean, or Froyo.

New Study Finds Smartwatches Aren’t That Good at Measuring Stress

Some health enthusiasts swear by smartwatches as a way to monitor stress levels, but a recent study calls into question that common usage. The study, published in the Journal of Psychopathology and Clinical Science, claims that such watches display a very limited ability to actually communicate what a person’s psychological state is. Sometimes, a watch may think the user is stressed when they’re really just excited about something, researchers say. The report looked at nearly 800 students who w
