Byron, who is married, was captured on a Coldplay concert “kiss cam” with his arms around the company’s chief people officer Kristin Cabot.

In Court for Fatal Crash, Tesla Admits It Wasn't Even Tracking Autopilot Crashes for the First Three Years of the Program

futurism.com Unknown 2026-02-02 06:00:19

With so many massive and well-publicized safety issues, nothing should surprise us about Tesla's internal culture — but new revelations from the country's first federal Autopilot crash trial have us shaken once again. As Law360 reports, an engineer at Elon Musk's car company revealed during a wrongful death trial this week that until 2018, the company didn't even keep records of Autopilot crashes — even though the assisted driving feature had been rolled out three years prior.

If you'll recall, the commission announced that it was investigating Corning last year, accusing it of squashing competition with its exclusive supply agreements, thereby driving up prices and stifling innovation.

Much of this waste comes from prematurely discarded electronic devices. Many enterprises follow a standard three-year replacement cycle, assuming older computers are inefficient.

Talk about a power couple. The Maya ruler in question was Te K’ab Chaak, the first ruler of Caracol, an important Maya city that ruled the southern part of the Yucatan Peninsula from 560 through 680 CE before it was abandoned by the 10th century.

Brain Scans Reveal Why Waking Up Is Sometimes Such a Difficult Experience

Want to wake up feeling great? The secret might not be so simple as a multi-step nighttime routine, early bedtime, or a no-device rule. A new study suggests that how we fall asleep and how we wake up the next day may not be so similar as we once thought.

Coway Airmega 50 Review: Effective and Affordable (2025)

I’ve been on the air quality beat for a while here at WIRED, and I often make the argument that consumers should go big when it comes to indoor air, as a larger fan and filter surface area produce a quieter and more powerful air purifier. However, if ever there were a fun-sized air purifier that punches above its weight (all 5 pounds of it), it’s the latest from air powerhouse Coway, the Airmega 50.

Nothing Phone 3 review: flagship-ish

Nothing says that the Phone 3 is its “first true flagship phone,” and it has put its money where its mouth is. The phone is getting a full US launch, and at $799, it costs exactly the same as a Pixel 9, Galaxy S25, or iPhone 16. That makes reviewing the Phone 3 refreshingly simple, because there are only two real questions that matter: is this as good as those three? And will it be as good as what we’re expecting from the new Pixel and iPhone models that are right around the corner? The answer
