John Ternus is set to lead his first Apple event as CEO on September 9. 👀

A new era for Apple begins.
OpenAI has introduced a new feature that lets ChatGPT users create personalised sticker packs for messaging.
ChatGPT can now turn any photo into a custom sticker pack.

Tap Images → Stickers, describe what you want, done.

Your dog, your friend's inside joke, your family — turned into stickers for iMessage and WhatsApp.

Free. No design skills needed.
Apple just laid off 200+ people from Vision Pro and Siri.

Translation: the VR headset didn't take off, and Apple's betting big on AI and smart glasses instead.

Vision Pro isn't dead. But it's not the priority anymore.

What do you think Apple builds next?
Apple is shutting down Vision Pro's gaming team completely.

Immersive video production is also getting cut back.

Translation: the "future of computing" headset can't even keep its game studio open.

Reality check for the whole VR industry.
State lawyers just said it in court: Meta intentionally tried to "hook" kids on its platforms.

Even after internal research showed the apps were hurting young users.

If states win, Meta could owe up to $1.4 trillion.

This trial could change social media forever.
New data on Instagram is worth knowing if you have a teen.

Content about suicide, self-harm, and eating disorders is reaching teens at 2.5x the rate it reaches adults.

Content the platform itself flags as "not recommended for teens" is still reaching them 1.5x more than adults.

The algorithm isn't filtering the way it's supposed to.

If you have a teen on Instagram, this is a good moment to check their settings and just ask what's showing up in their feed.
Nearly half of UK jobseekers say AI interviews left them feeling humiliated.

47% called it robotic and unclear. No real feedback, no human on the other end.

30% would rather quit the process entirely than sit through one.

Efficiency for companies. Misery for candidates.
Companies are rushing to use AI for hiring decisions.

But an IBM study found 1 in 5 organizations don't even have staff skilled enough to use AI tools properly.

Only 34% are retraining employees to work with it.

So who's really being evaluated here?
Meta just agreed to a $18B settlement that changes how your kid uses Instagram and Facebook.

Starting now, teens get:

→ A hard 2-hour daily limit (combined across both apps)
→ Zero access from midnight–6am
→ Hidden like counts
→ No cosmetic surgery/extreme makeup filters

Parents can override the time limit. Kids can't turn it off themselves.

It's part of a settlement with 48 states, most of it locked in for the next 10 years.

Good step. Not a fix — the algorithm still decides what they see for those 2 hours.
