Hand-picked News

When tech beef goes public, even a car deposit becomes a power move.

  • Elon Musk confirmed that Sam Altman got his Tesla Roadster refund, years after pre-ordering the never-delivered car

  • The reveal came via a reply on X, adding another layer to their ongoing tension 

  • Altman’s Roadster was part of Tesla’s 2017 hype—still undelivered, still controversial

Altman and Musk have had a rocky relationship since Musk left OpenAI in 2018. This latest jab feels more personal than corporate.

⚠️ When billionaires start airing receipts, it’s rarely just about the money. It’s about control, credibility, and who gets the last word.

👀 Reminder: If you're pre-ordering anything from a visionary founder, read the fine print and set a calendar reminder for 2030.

The platform’s newest feature could reshape how you see posts, replies, and even people.

  • Bluesky is testing “dislikes” to personalize your feed, helping the algorithm learn what you want less of

  • It’s also rolling out smarter reply ranking, downvoting toxic or spammy comments 

  • A new “social neighborhoods” map will prioritize replies from people you actually interact with

Bluesky’s decentralized vibe means users control their own moderation—but recent backlash over platform decisions pushed them to rethink how conversations flow.

Giving users more control over what they see (and don’t) is a win for healthier discourse.

⚠️ But “dislikes” can be messy—will it empower users or just fuel more drama?

👀 Tip: If you’re building a community, think about how feedback tools shape tone—not just content.

AI isn’t just writing emails anymore. It’s designing winning plays.

  • Seattle Reign FC’s head coach Laura Harvey used ChatGPT to brainstorm defensive formations 

  • The AI suggested a “back-five” setup - something Harvey hadn’t tried before

  • After testing it with her staff, the team adopted it and saw real improvements on the field

Harvey didn’t blindly follow the AI’s advice. She used it as a creative spark, then refined the strategy with her coaching team. The result? A smarter defense and a fresh way to think about tactics.

This is a milestone moment: AI influencing real-world sports strategy at the pro level

👀 It’s not about replacing coaches, it’s about expanding their playbook

Tip: If you’re stuck on a creative problem, try asking ChatGPT. You might not use the answer but it could unlock something new.
