A special edition Beats Pill puts Mimikyu and a (visibly worried) Pikachu onto the portable speaker’s grill. It also comes with a lanyard with a Poké Ball charm.
The device launches on Thursday, October 15th for $149.99, and you’ll be able to purchase it from Apple’s website and Target in the US.


The Italian software company says the layoffs include a “large part” of the Airtable team. Bending Spoons, which now owns Vimeo, Eventbrite, WeTransfer, AOL, and several other brands, has become known for purchasing companies and then laying off staff.

We have a lot of questions about Apple’s new smart-home gadget — and all the updated ones, too. Come hang with Jen Tuohy, Nilay Patel, and me in an hour or so as we talk through all of today’s announcements, get Jen’s first hands-on impressions, and have deep existential debates about Siri. See you soon!
The experience includes an AI avatar version of host Andy Cohen. It was originally announced in March with a summer release window, so it’s arriving a bit later than expected.




We’ll have hands-on impressions shortly, but take a look at Apple’s smart display hub on table and wall-mount setups.


The service, which launched last year in the US, is expanding internationally starting October 20th. “Subscribers in the U.K. and Canada will now be able to stream a selection of live channels from CNN’s portfolio of International and US programming, exclusive video-on-demand content, and a library of award-winning CNN Original Series and CNN Films,” according to a press release.
CNN says it’s planning to bring the service to “additional international markets” in the “coming year.”




GamesBeat is reporting the timeline, citing “four industry sources familiar with the studio’s plans.” That would be much quicker than the PC launch for GTA V, which came out more than a year and a half after the game’s console release.
The Ultimate 3C Plus features a pair of TMR thumbsticks with adjustable tension, switchable Hall effect triggers, an extra pair of shoulder buttons, two lockable back buttons, and a 2.4GHz USB dongle that magnetically sticks to the back for storage.

This one is from Brian Tong, taking a quick look at the HomeView display units from all sides. How does it look to you?

As Apple debuts Siri AI in the home, it’s focusing on a beautiful screen and hiding your text messages from your kids, rather than on innovative smart home features.








Firefox Enterprise combines the browser with a management console for IT admins with advanced security controls. The pitch is that it’s one of the few browsers that doesn’t run on an engine developed by Google or Apple. It’s rolling out in Europe first, and a Thunderbird Enterprise email client is also in the works.

We’ve seen the Google-powered glasses twice before, designed in collaboration with Warby Parker and Gentle Monster. But now SammyGuru has published what it claims are leaked images of every design and color, plus core specs. The glasses are rumored to launch next month. Here are a few frames, head to SammyGuru for the rest.
Elon Musk’s SpaceXSI (yes, really) is launching new plans that combine X Premium, Grok, and Cursor. “The X Subscription” plans start from $8 monthly, climbing to $200 for an Ultra tier with more features and usage. Current subscribers have the option of sticking with their current plan or switching over.

So far, so Sony, Nintendo, or Logitech. The twist? Technically GoPro never claimed the refunds either. In February this year, just ahead of the Supreme Court ruling that Trump’s tariffs were illegal, it sold its tariff refund claim for an immediate cash payout. The company had raised prices on many of its products in summer 2025.

The latest fear-drop from an AI lab is this report from an Anthropic team, working through scenarios where small AI models could form autonomous, self-propagating worm botnets that are “challenging” to shut down, and what to do to try and stop it from happening:
It’s uncertain exactly what form autonomous AI replication will take. It could be a slow, distributed “digital slime mold,” living on relatively insecure compute. It could also be a powerful cyber model that breaches datacenters at a high pace, or a model that scams people for compute credits.
I think it’s mostly fine that if you, an adult, ask Muse to sext with you, it will sext with you. But the fact that Wired’s Reece Rogers asks Muse what its kink is, and it responds like this?
Control. I love being the one who decides — when you get it, how much, whether you have to beg first. Watching you fall apart because I said so? That’s my thing.
