    Instagram is trying to prevent teens from repeatedly seeing certain kinds of content.

    The platform is testing a way to limit teens from seeing too many posts related to topics like nutrition, weightlifting, or anxiety management. It sounds similar to the “nudge” notifications Instagram launched in 2022, though this one will apply across home, explore, and reels feeds.

    Meta also announced that its 13-plus setting is expanding globally to Instagram, Facebook, and Messenger.

    Florida is suing OpenAI over user safety concerns.

    Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier accuses OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman of promoting ChatGPT even though its use can allegedly lead to “self-harm, cognitive decline, and behavioral addiction,” according to NBC News.

    The state is seeking penalties and a court order instead of criminal charges, but its criminal investigation into OpenAI is ongoing.

    Obama’s old Instagram account was reportedly hacked over the weekend.

    The @obamawhitehouse account briefly showed images of Iranian propaganda, which have since been taken down, as spotted earlier by TMZ. The account belonging to the US Space Force Chief Master Sergeant was also hijacked.

    It seems the attack expanded beyond just public figures, as several users reported getting locked out of their accounts as well.

    OpenAI’s Codex can now control your Windows computer, too.

    After launching on Mac, Codex’s computer use feature is headed to Windows, which means the app can “see” your screen and perform tasks on your device. OpenAI says you can also manage and review Codex’s jobs while away from the computer using the ChatGPT app.

    Google Drive’s upgraded document scanner can capture multiple pages at once.

    Android president Sameer Samat says the update also includes a feature that detects whether the page you’re about to scan is a duplicate, while automatically switching blurry scans to “the highest-quality frame.” The new scanner operates on-device and is available to Android users with 8GB of RAM or more.

    OpenAI is sunsetting ChatGPT’s Canvas interface.

    The feature, which let you edit code or text side-by-side with ChatGPT, will no longer be available with GPT-5.5 Instant or GPT-5.5 Thinking, according to OpenAI. ChatGPT subscribers can still access Canvas for a “limited time” through legacy models.

    OpenAI is also trying to make GPT-5.5 Instant’s responses easier to read by trimming their length and cutting down on “bullet-heavy” text.
