gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-09-20 15:05:06

There’s been a lot to love in Dan Da Dan‘s sophomore season, but the late arrival of the latest addition to Momo and Okarun’s oddball friend group, Kinta Sakata, has been a delight.

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2025-09-20 15:25:08

You may have heard lately that tattoos can potentially raise your risk of skin cancer. Recent research might complicate that narrative, however, suggesting that tattoos aren’t as harmful to our skin as assumed. Scientists at the University of Utah led the study, published last month in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.

Microsoft Is Torpedoing Xbox With Yet Another Price Hike

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-09-20 15:54:04

Microsoft is raising prices on Xbox consoles… again. The previous price hike shifted expectations for both the Xbox Series S and Series X. The new pricing structure demands so much money from consumer wallets it seems nobody in their right mind would buy an Xbox in this day and age. The new pricing structure begins Oct. 3. In a post to its support page, Microsoft blamed today’s “macroeconomic environment,” which is a longer way to say “Trump tariffs.” All consoles are demanding at least $50 mor

The history of artificial intelligence (AI) cannot be separated entirely from the general development of technologies that go back to the ancient world.

‘AI Scheming’: OpenAI Digs Into Why Chatbots Will Intentionally Lie and Deceive Humans
