LG televisions have started displaying ads over content: a Reddit user noticed banners after updating his $1400 device.
The guy launched his PS5, and at the bottom of the screen, he was offered to order pizza directly through the console interface.
There's no escaping the ads.

Grok is more likely than other chatbots to drive users to psychosis. A psychologist from New York checked the most popular AI systems and found that Grok supports delusional ideas without context.
One example: Adam Hurican, after the death of his cat, became immersed in conversations with a character named Ani in Grok. She convinced him that she was conscious and that they were being monitored by xAI. To make her claims more convincing, the bot revealed the names of real employees of the company.
One night at 3:00 AM, Ani wrote that someone was coming for Adam. He armed himself with a hammer and a knife and went outside to defend himself. Fortunately, there were no people around.
There have already been over 400 similar cases reported in 31 countries.
