Emma Stone May Be an Alien In the First Trailer for ‘Bugonia’

With films like Poor Things, The Favourite, The Lobster, and more, director Yorgos Lanthimos has become one of the most exciting directors working today. It’s because he can take a relatively normal subject and turn it incredibly weird or take an incredibly weird subject and make it seem normal. We aren’t quite sure which one of those his next film, Bugonia, is yet, but its first teaser all but assures us it’s pure Yorgos. Opening wide on Halloween, Bugonia stars Emma Stone as a CEO who is kidn

Open-source skills can save your career when AI comes knocking

Liudmyla Lishchyshyna/Getty Are you panicked by headlines like 'Why this leading AI CEO is warning that tech could cause mass unemployment' and 'AI's impact on the job market is 'inevitable'? My advice is chill. While there is a big shift in jobs coming, it's not as scary-sounding as you might fear. At the Open Source Summit North America in Denver, the Linux Foundation released its 2025 State of Tech Talent report, revealing that upskilling and open source will address the demands of an AI-dr

A spokesperson for the Trump Org

The battle-tested tips CEOs swear by when change hits from every direction

StudioGraphic / Getty Images As I interview some of the brightest minds in technology, business and leadership for my weekly podcast DisrupTV, one thing became crystal clear: we're not just experiencing an AI revolution -- we're in the midst of multiple technological revolutions converging simultaneously. This combinatorial effect makes this even more game changing than the internet, because the internet was just one revolution. Also: 4 ways to turn AI into your business advantage As such, th

Life as Slime

This article concludes Issue 06. Watch our Behind-the-Scenes interview with the author on YouTube. By Thomas Moynihan In 1832, Ferdinand von Ritgen, a German physician, puzzled over how the first generation of humans birthed themselves. He pictured their embryos sprouting spontaneously “without procreating parents preceding them,” like fungal growths emerging from the ground. By Ritgen’s day, it was understood that life on Earth had predated humanity’s debut for eons and that living creatures

Eli Lilly’s Obesity Pill Appears to Work as Well as Injected GLP-1s

Eli Lilly’s daily anti-obesity pill orforglipron appears to be as good at spurring weight loss and lowering blood sugar in diabetes patients as popular injectable GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, according to new data from a Phase 3 trial. The results were announced today at the annual meeting of the American Diabetes Association and published in the New England Journal of Medicine. Eli Lilly is the maker of the blockbuster GLP-1 drug tirzepatide, approved as Mounjaro for type 2 diabetes and Zepbound

Silk & Snow S&S Organic Mattress Review: Soft as a Cloud

Right off the bat, I'm letting you know this bed is made of neither silk nor snow. I would argue that it’s made with something even better—latex. The feel of latex can be hard to pinpoint, as I’ve heard it compared to everything from a thicker yoga mat or trampoline to even a waterbed. The fact of the matter is that latex has cushioning, pressure relief, and a bouncy feel. It’s also pretty good at keeping out heat and allergens, which is a win for hot sleepers and those with allergies. With the

JPMorgan moves further into crypto with stablecoin-like token JPMD

Jamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co., speaks to the Economic Club of New York in Manhattan, New York City, on April 23, 2024. JPMorgan Chase is taking a step further into the cryptocurrency space with its own stablecoin-like token, called JPMD. The U.S. banking giant told CNBC on Tuesday that it's planning to launch a so-called deposit token on Coinbase's public blockchain Base, which is built on top of the Ethereum network. Each deposit token is meant to serve as a digital re

Mocked Trump Mobile yanks coverage map that ignored Trump renaming Gulf of Mexico

The Trump Organization's rollout of Trump Mobile on Monday—a new wireless service using Trump's image to sell smartphones—was notably messy. Not only did the website reportedly glitch while processing preorders (more on that below), but soon after its launch, at least one glaring mistake on the website had to be quickly changed. Critics on social media were quick to point out that the Trump Mobile coverage map used the Gulf of Mexico instead of using Trump's controversial new name for the body

Best Organic Mattresses (2025): Certified Nontoxic, Natural Sleep

Certified organic mattresses are made of natural, organic materials that have been independently tested to meet standards. Not all “organic”mattresses are equal though. We’ve narrowed our search by sticking with companies that have certifications like the Global Organic Latex Standard (GOLS) and ‌Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS). GOLS covers latex, which has a pretty complex manufacturing process that is not always the healthiest, but GOLS ensures that the finished results is as free of ha

Hackers switch to targeting U.S. insurance companies

Threat intelligence researchers are warning of hackers breaching multiple U.S. companies in the insurance industry using all the tactics observed with Scattered Spider activity. Typically, the threat group has a sector-by-sector focus. Previously, they targeted retail organizations in the United Kingdom and then switched to targets in the same sector in the United States. “Google Threat Intelligence Group is now aware of multiple intrusions in the US which bear all the hallmarks of Scattered S

Trump Mobile launches, hyping $499 US-made phone amid Apple threats

Donald Trump's image will soon be used to sell smartphones, the Trump Organization confirmed after unveiling a new wireless service, Trump Mobile, on Monday. According to the press release, Trump Mobile's "flagship" wireless plan will be "The 47 Plan," which references Trump's current term as the United States' 47th president. The Trump Organization says the plan offers an "unbeatable value"—costing $47.45 per month—and "transformational" cellular service. But the price seems to be on par with

ZDNET's key takeaways The Benks ArmorGo Magnetic Wallet and Stand is on sale for $30. It holds up to three cards, has a rotatable stand, is RFID blocking and extra durable.

A Mattress Testing Expert Breaks Down Natural and Organic Certifications (2025)

As a professional mattress tester, I’ve seen an upward trend in the past few years of people looking into organic mattresses, toppers, and sheets. Whether it’s because of a renewed focus on what is truly “healthy” and toxin-free, or a concern over the use of fiberglass (I know we all remember that blowing up on TikTok), more brands are increasingly getting products certified. However, just because someone’s throwing on a label and using buzzwords like “natural” and “organic” doesn’t mean it’s t

Wikipedia Tries to Calm Fury Over New AI-Generated Summaries Proposal

The denizens of the open web don't want anything to do with AI. The Wikimedia Foundation, the organization behind Wikipedia, made the unfortunate decision to announce the trial of a new AI-fueled article generator this week. The backlash from the site’s editors was so swift and so vengeful that the organization quickly walked back its idea, announcing a temporary “pause” of the new feature. A spokesperson on behalf of the Foundation—which is largely separate from the decentralized community of

6 Best Organic Sheets (2025), Tested and Reviewed

What to Look for in Organic Sheets Organic means many things. It's often used to confirm that food was grown without toxic pesticides and chemicals, and doesn't have things like growth hormones or GMOs, in order to label it as organic food. For bedding, it should mean both that organic materials were used to make the fabric—no toxic pesticides used in farming, etc.—and that they were produced organically with nontoxic chemicals. You'll want at least two certifications to prove this. Most sheet

Large Law Firm Sends Panicked Email as It Realizes Its Attorneys Have Been Using AI to Prepare Court Documents

The law firm Morgan & Morgan has rushed out a stern email to its attorneys after two of them were caught citing fake court cases invented by an AI model, Reuters reports. Sent earlier this month to all of its over 1,000 lawyers, the email warns at length about the tech's proclivity for hallucinating. But the pros of the tech, apparently, still outweigh the cons; rather than banning AI usage — something that plenty of organizations have done — Morgan & Morgan leadership take the middle road and

Horror game Mouthwashing will land on consoles later this year

Indie horror game Mouthwashing is making the leap to consoles. Developer Wrong Organ shared today that its creepy creation will be available on the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch later this year. As well as appearing in the digital storefronts, the console versions will get a physical release and additional merch courtesy of Fangamer. This is one of many truly excellent horror games that debuted in 2024. Mouthwashing harkens back to the low-poly look of games from the early
