About this episode

The episode discusses Nintendo's price hike for the Switch 2, a significant drop in PS5 sales, a cyberattack affecting US schools, and revelations from the Musk vs. Altman trial regarding AI.

Console gamers are facing a double hit as Nintendo confirms a Switch 2 price hike while Sony reports a staggering 46% drop in PS5 sales — and the reason behind both may be worse than expected. Thousands of schools across the US were locked out of a major learning platform after a cyberattack, with a ticking deadline that has administrators on edge. In the courtroom, bombshell evidence from the Musk vs. Altman trial exposes a secret 2017 plot that could rewrite the origin story of modern AI. Google also pulled the wraps off a screenless, AI-powered Fitbit — and the universe handed scientists not one but three mind-bending discoveries that have astronomers questioning everything they thought they knew.
