    Netflix is losing its edge.

    Nielsen data compiled by the Entertainment Strategy Guy newsletter shows that Netflix’s original titles have gradually been losing ground to original content from rival streaming platforms, such as Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, Apple TV Plus, and Paramount Plus.

    While Netflix owned 80 percent of the weekly top ten charts in 2021, that’s now down to 52 percent this year so far — and Disney Plus isn’t doing so hot either.

    Alienware’s $549 OLED monitor is now available for $549.

    There was some concern that Trump’s tariffs would impact the attractive price that Dell announced for its Alienware 27 280Hz QD-OLED gaming monitor earlier this year, but it’s now launched unscathed. A smaller 25-inch 320Hz monitor is also available for $249 if you don’t mind switching the OLED panel for an IPS display.

    Grok is coming to Teslas.

    The xAI chatbot will arrive on Tesla vehicles by “next week at the latest,” according to Elon Musk, who previously said in January that it was “coming soon.” This wasn’t mentioned during last night’s live demo of Grok 4.

    Tesla is already struggling with its Musk-associated image problem of course, but it’s not like Grok has had any “politically incorrect” meltdowns lately that could make it any worse.

    A screenshot taken of a post Elon Musk made to X about Grok coming to Tesla vehicles soon.
    A match made in... well. Lets just see if he delivers on that deadline.

    The video game actors’ strike is over.

    SAG-AFTRA members voted to conclude the year-long strike and approve a new media agreement after three years of total bargaining. The new contract establishes AI guardrails to protect performers from having their likeness used without consent, alongside increases to salary requirements, overtime, and other provisions.
