At next week’s ‘Awe Dropping’ Apple Event, Apple will release the iPhone 17 lineup. One of the most noteworthy models this year will be an entirely new one: the iPhone 17 Air. It’s going to be an ultra-thin iPhone, and it’s set to replace the iPhone 16 Plus entirely. That being said, will this third attempt at making a fourth iPhone model actually pan out this time?

The Evidence That AI Is Destroying Jobs for Young People Just Got Stronger

In a moment with many important economic questions and fears, I continue to find this among the more interesting mysteries about the US economy in the long run: Is artificial intelligence already taking jobs from young people? If you’ve been casually following the debate over AI and its effect on young graduates’ employment, you could be excused for thinking that the answer to that question is “possibly,” or “definitely yes,” or “almost certainly no.” Confusing!

Venezuela Claims Trump’s Video of Strike Against Suspected Drug Smugglers Is AI

gizmodo.com Matt Novak 2025-10-19 13:10:04

President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that his government had conducted a “kinetic strike” against suspected drug smugglers from Venezuela in a boat traveling in the Caribbean. The strike killed 11 people, according to Trump, and he claims they were all gang members. None of those points has been confirmed, and drug smuggling is not a capital offense, making Trump’s strike almost certainly illegal under international law. But Venezuela had a rather interesting reply. A government minister is

Paranoia is as natural to Silicon Valley as lip fillers are to Los Angeles.
