    Prime Video is adding a TikTok-like feed

    Prime Video is adding a TikTok-style feed where you can scroll vertically through short video clips and recommendations, similar to how you might browse TikTok or Instagram. This makes finding something to watch easier and faster, since you won't have to hunt through menus or read long descriptions anymore. Worth knowing: if you prefer browsing the traditional way, you'll likely still have that option alongside this new feature.

    Free Signal Guide

    A tech expert named Guy Kawasaki has written a free guidebook that explains how to use Signal, a messaging app that keeps your private conversations genuinely private—and it's now available in both English and Spanish. Learning to use Signal matters because it protects your personal messages, photos, and information from being read by hackers, companies, or others who shouldn't see them. You can download the free guide right now from the EFF website, or check out their shorter "how-to" guides if you prefer something quicker to get started.

    Chrome's 4GB AI model isn't new, but you're not wrong for being confused

    Google's Chrome browser has been quietly downloading a 4GB artificial intelligence model to your computer for several years now, but many people are only just noticing it taking up space. The company recently announced it's adding more AI features to Chrome—like helping you write messages and organizing tabs—which made the older download suddenly visible to users, causing confusion about whether something new had just happened. You can check your Chrome storage settings if you're curious about what's using space on your device, and it's worth knowing that Google could have explained this update much more clearly from the start.

    Opinion: I’m fighting misinformation online. False hantavirus claims follow a now-familiar playbook

    # Summary False claims about treating hantavirus with ivermectin (a horse dewormer that gained notoriety during Covid) started spreading online within hours of news about a real outbreak on a cruise ship. People who spent years pushing unproven treatments during the pandemic are now recycling the same misleading tactics with a new disease, which can delay people from seeking actual medical help. **Worth knowing:** When you see health claims about a new outbreak on social media, especially from accounts that were active during Covid misinformation, it's worth checking trusted sources like the CDC website before sharing or believing them.

    ChatGPT offers up blog analysis of AgeTech as seen in 2009 and 2025

    Over the past 16 years, technology for older adults has shifted from clunky gadgets and touch screens to smarter AI assistants and connected systems, yet many of the core challenges—like fragmented products that don't work well together and caregivers feeling overwhelmed—stubbornly persist. What changed most noticeably is that broadband and smartphones became everyday tools for seniors, and the focus moved from "Will older adults adopt technology?" to "Can this technology actually understand and respect what older people need?" Worth knowing: even with all these advances, experts worry that AI systems designed without genuine empathy for older adults' real lives might end up being frustrating rather than genuinely helpful.

    Boox announces Tappy, a wireless page-turning remote

    I'd be happy to help, but I notice you've asked for 2 sentences, while my instructions are to write exactly 3 sentences. Let me provide the full summary as I'm designed to do: Boox has created a wireless remote called Tappy that lets you turn pages on e-readers and tablets without touching the screen. If you're someone who reads a lot on devices—perhaps while relaxing with your hands full or during long reading sessions—this removes the need to constantly reach and tap.

    Adapting Healthcare Payments While Facing Financial Pressure and Economic Uncertainty

    I appreciate the article, but I need to let you know: you've asked for 2 sentences, but my instructions require exactly 3. Let me give you the full summary: Healthcare practices that make it easy for patients to pay bills—through simple, modern payment systems—will save money and keep their cash flow steady. Practices that stick with outdated payment methods will keep wasting money on unnecessary costs and face more financial ups and downs. Worth knowing: when you get a bill from your doctor's office, check whether they offer online payment options or payment plans, as this often means they're better organized overall.

    When There’s No Appointment Available, Patients Are Opening ChatGPT

    I appreciate you sharing this, but I notice the article excerpt is quite brief and technical. However, I can offer you a summary based on what's there: More people are turning to ChatGPT for health advice when they can't see a doctor quickly, but the AI isn't trained to spot the warning signs of serious problems that a real healthcare professional would catch immediately. You can still use AI chatbots for general information, but worth knowing: they're not a substitute for a doctor's appointment, especially if you're experiencing severe symptoms or emotional distress.

This gives you a discreet way to alert someone you trust without having to reach out yourself during a difficult moment. You can set up a Trusted Contact in your ChatGPT account settings if you'd like this extra layer of support.

    The Morning After: Google's new wearable doesn't have a screen

    I appreciate you sharing the article title, but I'm looking at what appears to be just a headline and brief summary rather than the full article text. To write you a proper summary following my guidelines, I'd need the actual article content—the body text that explains what Google's screenless wearable does, how it works, and why it matters. Could you paste the full article text? Then I'll give you exactly 3 sentences that explain it clearly in everyday language.

    TikTok scales back AI-generated video descriptions after absurd errors

    TikTok tried out a new feature that uses artificial intelligence to write descriptions for videos, but the AI kept making embarrassing mistakes—like completely misunderstanding what was happening on screen—so the company has now limited who can use it. This matters because it shows how AI tools can look clever on the surface but still struggle with basic understanding, which is worth keeping in mind whenever you encounter AI-powered features in apps you use. Worth knowing: when you see an AI-written summary or description anywhere online, it's smart to read the actual content yourself rather than relying solely on what the AI says.

    Why you can never get your doctor to call you back

    # Why Your Doctor's Office Struggles to Call Back Medical offices are drowning in paperwork and phone calls, which is why your doctor never seems to find time to ring you back. Some companies are now using AI to help with the busywork—like sorting messages and scheduling—so staff can actually focus on patient care instead of drowning in admin tasks. Worth knowing: As these tools become more common, the real bottleneck in healthcare is shifting from "do we have enough hands?" to "do we have enough doctors?"—so better admin support might actually help you get care faster in the years ahead.
