The AI ad was inspired by GTA IV.
If you’ve been on social media lately, you might’ve seen the unsettling AI slop videos showing AI-generated people in wild scenarios or just speaking a bunch of nonsense.

Bose has announced upgraded QuietComfort Ultra wireless earbuds with better adaptive ANC that can more smoothly adapt to sudden spikes in noise. The QuietComfort Ultra (2nd Gen) are expected to be available through Bose’s online store starting later this summer for $299 in black, white...
On Thursday afternoon, many people with smart home setups connected to Google Home / Nest, or who are trying to stream music on Spotify, started coming up empty. All I got when I tried to open the Spotify website was a message that says “Audiences in Jwt are not allowed,” and opening the app also pops up an error saying it can’t connect.
The issues appear to be tied to problems with Google...

The latest edition of iOS Doing Android Things.
Apple announcing Android features years after Google shipped them is a tale as old as time, but that doesn't make it any less fun to point out whenever it happens. This year's WWDC felt especially Android-y - not helped by Siri essentially sitting this year's announcements out while Apple put its new Liquid Glass design language front and center...
Garmin announced the $799 Venu X1 fitness watch today. It offers a 2-inch square AMOLED screen and seems like a shot at the Apple Watch Ultra 2, given its similar square design and titanium body, even though the company’s other watches already offer similar features to Apple’s flagship wearable.
