A federal judge in Northern California denied Elon Musk’s motion for an injunction that would have halted OpenAI’s planned transition into a for-profit company, Bloomberg reported.

Before Disney Plus and its parade of post-Endgame Marvel series, shows like Daredevil gave the studio a convenient way to infuse the MCU with a grittier, more dramatic energy. Being a Netflix project, the original Daredevil could go harder with its action and darker with its nuanced depiction of the man without fear. And with multiple solid spinoffs of its own, Netflixâs Daredevil felt like it was working its way toward becoming a key part of Marvelâs future big-screen plans.
Though the New York City of it all made an eventual Daredevil x Avengers crossover seem possible (albeit improbable), those hopes were dashed when Marvelâs production partnership deal with Netflix ended. For a time, it looked like Marvel intended to soldier on without Daredevil and the Defenders while cultivating a fresh crop of heroes to fight in the streaming wars. But that was clearly no longer the case when the devil of Hellâs Kitchen made unexpected, back-to-back guest appearances in Spider-Man: No Way Home, She-Hulkand Echo.
In Disney Plusâ new Daredevil: Born Again series, you can see Marvel trying to recapture the street-level magic that made its Netflix shows pop. Born Again whips so man …

PC players of Grand Theft Auto V have at long last reached parity with their console brethren. Following an announcement last month, today Rockstar Games has released a PC update with features that for several years had only been available to the latest console generation.
It's a free update for anyone who already owned a copy of the hugely popular game. The original version of GTA V has been delisted from PC storefronts in favor of the new Expanded & Enhanced iteration of the game, which includes a copy of the old Legacy edition. Both Story Mode and Online progress can be migrated to the most recent version. The update includes technical improvements that debuted on the consoles, as well as some PC-specific ray tracing features if the recommended specs are met. There are also some minor additions on content, such as ambient wildlife, photography challenges, new vehicles and access to the GTA+ subscription service.
Rockstar Games has been spiffing up several entries in its GTA franchise over the years. It released a trilogy of remasters for Grand Theft Auto III, GTA: Vice City and GTA: San Andreas in addition to providing these upgrades to GTA V and Grand Theft Auto Online. And while fans of the series might enjoy all the nostalgia, it's safe to say that expectations are sky high for the upcoming Grand Theft Auto VI.

Tim Cook summarized today’s Apple product news in a succinct post on X that caused a bit of laughter across the internet: ”Introducing the newest iPad Air!”
The humor is in the fact that there really isn’t much to say about the M3 iPad Air. It’s just the newest one! However, there is something fascinating about “the newest iPad Air!” that isn’t obvious but deserves attention.
In late 2013, the Spike Jonze film Her imagined a future where people would form emotional connections with AI voice assistants. Nearly 12 years later, that fictional premise has veered closer to reality with the release of a new conversational voice model from AI startup Sesame that has left many users both fascinated and unnerved.
"I tried the demo, and it was genuinely startling how human it felt," wrote one Hacker News user who tested the system. "I'm almost a bit worried I will start feeling emotionally attached to a voice assistant with this level of human-like sound."
In late February, Sesame released a demo for the company's new Conversational Speech Model (CSM) that appears to cross over what many consider the "uncanny valley" of AI-generated speech, with some testers reporting emotional connections to the male or female voice assistant ("Miles" and "Maya").
It takes some effort on every Galaxy device to tune notifications so that we don’t become bombarded with alerts at all waking moments.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) today dismissed a lawsuit against Early Warning Services, the company that runs the Venmo-like Zelle payment platform, as well as the three banks that share ownership of it, reports CNBC.
The CFPB, which enforces regulations against the financial services industry, had claimed in its December 2024 lawsuit that the organizations had not effectively protected Zelle users “from widespread fraud,” causing customers of Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, and Wells Fargo to lose a combined $870 million since Zelle launched in 2017.
The regulator’s filing says it is dismissing its court case with prejudice, meaning that it can’t bring its claims again. Eric Halperin, the CFPB’s former head of enforcement, told CNBC that doing so also means there’s no way “of clawing back funds for consumer relief.” Representatives from Zelle, JPMorgan, and the Consumer Bankers Association each praised the ruling in statements to the outlet.
President Donald Trump’s administration, including Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), have pushed hard to effectively shut down the CFPB. The agency has only published one enforcement action since President Donald Trump’s inauguration, and under acting Director Russell Vought it’s dropped several cases that were brought by its Biden-era leader, Rohit Chopra. Agency employees are currently fighting in court to halt the move, alleging they’ve been prevented from carrying out legally mandated duties — including responding to urgent consumer complaints.
