The Crypto.com guy bought AI.com (and a Super Bowl ad)
Valve's Steam Machine: Everything we know The Crypto.com guy bought AI.com (and a Super Bowl ad) Kris Marszalek's new website will let users create their own AI agents. In this case it's AI.com, valued at one point at $100 million, which will serve as the online home for his new company of the same name. The website launch is being paired with a Super Bowl ad that will air this Sunday. AI.com's main offering is an AI agent that operates on the user's behalf -- organizing work, sending messages, executing actions across apps, building projects, and more. It's a similar concept to what companies like OpenAI, Anthropic and Google are promising with their own agents and agentic features, and notably lacking in hard details.
ICE Agent's 'Dragging' Case May Help Expose Evidence in Renee Good Shooting
ICE Agent's'Dragging' Case May Help Expose Evidence in Renee Good Shooting The government has withheld details of the investigation of Renee Good's killing--but an unrelated case involving the ICE agent who shot her could force new revelations. Defense attorneys for a Minnesota man convicted in December of assaulting Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer Jonathan Ross are seeking access to investigative files related to the killing of Renee Nicole Good, after learning Ross was the same officer who shot and killed her during a targeted operation in Minneapolis last month. Attorneys for Roberto Carlos Muñoz-Guatemala asked a federal judge on Friday to order prosecutors to turn over training records as well as investigative files related to Ross, the ICE agent who killed Good on January 7 during Operation Metro Surge and was also injured in a June 2025 incident in which Muñoz-Guatemala dragged him with his car. A separate post-trial motion by the defense, filed in the US District Court in Minnesota, asks the judge to pause deadlines for a new-trial motion until the discovery motion is resolved. Muñoz-Guatemala's attorneys argue that even if the court ultimately decides that any newly discovered evidence doesn't entitle their client to a new trial, he's entitled to explore whether there are mitigating factors that could impact the length of his sentence, such as whether Ross' injuries could have been, to some degree, brought upon him by his own behavior.
Apple will reportedly allow third-party AI assistants in CarPlay
Valve's Steam Machine: Everything we know The apps can be voice-controlled, but can't replace Siri. Apple plans to allow third-party voice-controlled AI apps in CarPlay, reports . Siri is the default voice assistant for things like controlling music and looking up directions, but future AI apps in CarPlay could handle the complicated, open-ended requests Siri can't answer. The expanded support would let developers like OpenAI or Google offer versions of their ChatGPT and Gemini apps for CarPlay. Similar functionality is possible just by connecting a smartphone to a car over Bluetooth and using an AI app's voice mode, but CarPlay support would presumably make the process a little more seamless.
RFK Jr. Has Packed an Autism Panel With Cranks and Conspiracy Theorists
Among those Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently named to a federal autism committee are people who tout dangerous treatments and say vaccine manufacturers are "poisoning children." US health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has filled an autism committee with friends, associates, and former colleagues who believe that autism is caused by vaccines. Autism advocates are now worried the group could pave the way for dangerous pseudoscientific treatments going mainstream. Last week, Kennedy announced an entirely new lineup for the Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee (IACC), a group that recommends what types of autism research the government should fund and provides guidance on the services the autism community requires. The group is typically composed of experts in the area of autism research, along with policy experts and autistic people advocating for their own community.
The toddler who survived a 54-degree body temperature
Humans aren't built for the cold, but have survived frigid temperatures in some amazing cases. Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Winter is not for the faint of heart. In New York City, skyscrapers turn Manhattan into a series of freezing wind tunnels. In Sapporo, Japan, the snowfall is almost 200 inches each winter. Even so, humans have developed plenty of clever ways to wait out the cold. But what would happen if instead of bundling up inside with a hot chocolate, you were left in the frigid cold--just how cold can humans get and recover?
