cnbc.com Chris Eudaily 2026-03-15 21:34:06

A Tesla Cybertruck sits on a lot at a Tesla dealership on April 15, 2024 in Austin, Texas. Tesla shares slid more than 2% Tuesday after a report that the electric vehicle maker was halting production of Cybertruck and Model Y models for a week in Austin, Texas. The production stoppage begins June 30, Business Insider reported, citing a staff meeting where the announcement was made. The pause, which is for maintenance on production lines, would be the third such shutdown at the Austin facility

Karma Strikes Back in the New ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ Trailer

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2026-03-15 21:15:40

It’s been 28 years since that vengeful hook-handed killer targeted Julie (Jennifer Love Hewitt), Ray (Freddie Prinze Jr.), and their friends—but 29 since the hit-and-run that set their misery in motion. In the new I Know What You Did Last Summer, a direct sequel to 1998’s I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (the one set in the Bahamas), Julie and Ray are back, though the focus is clearly on the next generation of good-looking kids who haven’t yet learned the importance of taking responsibility

Borderlands 4 recommended specs call for an RTX 3080 and 32GB RAM

techspot.com Rob Thubron 2026-03-16 01:22:00

A hot potato: Now that people are no longer angry over Borderlands 4 possibly costing $80 (it's actually $70 for the standard edition), something else is causing plenty of outrage: the game's PC requirements. Asking for an RTX 3080 as the recommended GPU does seem excessive, and even the minimum specs are higher than expected. Borderlands 4's system requirements on its Steam page are certainly higher than one would expect. Even the bare minimum requirements, where we usually see ancient and/or

How AI chatbots keep people coming back

techcrunch.com Maggie Nye 2026-03-16 01:39:00

Chatbots are increasingly looking to keep people chatting, using familiar tactics that we’ve already seen lead to negative consequences. Sycophancy can make AI chatbots respond in a way that’s overly agreeable or flattering. And while having a digital hype person might not seem like a dangerous thing, it is actually a tactic used by tech companies to keep users talking with their bots and returning to their platforms.

Apple currently sells MacBooks equipped with its own M-series chips in a wide range of sizes and price points. It discontinued the M1 MacBook Air to make room for newer models, but some retailers are still selling the last-gen laptop starting at $649 — a far cry from the $2,499 starting price of the latest 16-inch MacBook Pro with M4 Pro.

But fear not: the game is now available for pre-order at $70 for the standard version. With more new games costing $80, there were fears that Borderlands 4 would follow this trend. But the game has landed on Steam ahead of its September 12 launch with a $70/£60/€70 price tag. That's for the standard edition. There's also a $100/£90/€10
