Marvel teases Zodiac spy thriller. Heres what fans are theorizing.

Marvel's whiplash New York Comic Con announcements have brought fans disappointing cancellation news, sneak previews, and, of course, more secrecy. Taking to the stage Oct. 8, Marvel execs announced the end of Daredevil: Born Again , which will conclude with its third season next year. The team also gave attendees a taste of the upcoming third season of X-Men '97 and VisionQuest , the last installment of the Scarlet Witch's television saga. But the online buzz is all about its mysterious new show, Zodiac , set to debut in 2028. SEE ALSO: What's new to streaming this week? (Oct. 9, 2026) Flashing the new logo on the big screen, Marvel Television head Brad Winderbaum wouldn't say much about the show's plot or characters — perhaps some meta marketing for what is being dubbed a Marvel universe spy drama — but he did hint there was more than meets the eye. "If you're a fan of the comics, there is a ...

OpenAI to bring in $20 billion less than previously expected

According to a new report from the Financial Times , OpenAI has informed investors that the company is expected to make $50 billion in revenue for the year. That's a lot of money, but it's also a full $20 billion less than earlier projections from just last month, which predicted the company would earn $70 billion in annual revenue. AI companies like Anthropic and OpenAI are in the midst of an unprecedented infrastructure spending spree, with the AI industry spending trillions on data centers and other resources. And as CNN noted , the Financial Times' report could "rattle investors" worried that these companies won't be able to turn a profit after all. Tech stocks took a hit on the market after the revenue shortfall was reported. According to the Financial Times, the $70 billion figure didn't come from OpenAI itself, but rather from investors comparing OpenAI's revenue with its main competitor, Anthropic. The latter's revenue projections include r...

Californias new AI law: Ban on bots used to fire employees

Employers in the Golden State can't offload the hard parts of running a business to AI , according to a new state law. Signed by California Governor Gavin Newsom last week, SB 947 sets restrictions on the use of the novel technology in disciplinary decision making, including firing employees. SB 947 may sound like an obvious regulatory move as industries continue to worry about AI's impact on employment, but the "No Robo Bosses Act" marks the first law of its kind in the nation . SEE ALSO: Report: OpenAI should pause ChatGPT for Teens over safety Other states, including California, have enacted bans on AI-enabled discrimination and laws that restrict the authority of automated systems in hiring and benefits decisions.

Amazon Prime subscription settlement: If you’re eligible, how to collect

Some Amazon Prime subscribers might get a surprise payment in the near future. According to the Federal Trade Commission , Amazon is still working through a $2.5 billion settlement stemming from "misleading enrollment and cancellation practices." Amazon has already sent out more than $845 million in refunds, but payments will continue through April 2027. Anyone eligible will receive a payment via PayPal, Venmo, or a physical check in the mail, and there's no form to sign or anything like that. It's all automatic.

GG EZ started as AI. Two creators made it human. Does that change anything?

For the past few weeks, it's been nearly impossible to spend time online without hearing the phrase "GG fuckin' easy." Or, perhaps more accurately, "furkin' easy." You've probably seen the clip, too. A woman sitting at her desk with wavy red hair, clipped to one side and tucked beneath a pair of gaming headphones, sings, "GG fuckin' easy." A guy cuts in: "Hey, don't say that!" She looks almost surprised. "Really?" Then she scrunches her cheeks, lines radiate from her face, and she offers a compromise: "Furkin' easy." The whole thing lasts about seven seconds. The post on X has passed 72 million views, and the quote tweets have racked up millions more. The song is "GG EZ," and in a matter of weeks, those seven seconds have been remixed, memed, and turned into a reason to " nuke all Valorant servers. " People who had absolutely nothing to do with the song even started pretending t...
