You know an outlet has The Juice when reporters of @ejdickson.bsky.social's caliber are signing up. @wired.com just went from strong to stronger.

I've been a huge fan of Ej's writing for years, and I am truly overjoyed that she'll be gracing our culture section with her brilliance!!!! Welcome to @wired.com!

The latest AI doc has incredible access to CEOs like Sam Altman and Dario Amodei, but doesn't interrogate their grandiose claims or press them about the tech's perils, instead shifting responsibility to the public. Read @milesklee.bsky.social' review: www.wired.com/story/a-new-...

fascinating behind-the-scenes about journalists using AI in different ways from @mzeff.bsky.social : www.wired.com/story/tech-r...

New: @jasooooon.bsky.social talked to aging porn stars who are embracing AI clones to keep themselves young forever, and others who use them to talk to men while they're sleeping and perform sex acts they wouldn't do: www.wired.com/story/shes-n...

Women aren’t even safe when they are literal fruit.

Viral AI fruit drama. That’s where 2026 is at.

what the fuck is going on

Those viral fruit slop videos are everywhere, but while they look cutesy, the themes are often extremely dark and misogynistic. I've seen two that imply a female fruit was being group sexually assaulted. @kattenbarge.bsky.social gets into it: www.wired.com/story/theres...

"Across social media, people have expressed that Sora is yet another example of techies manufacturing supply when there isn’t even a demand." r.i.p. sora lol from 2025: www.wired.com/story/the-bl...

The @wired.com Big Interview podcast is back for season two. For our first episode, I sat down with the brilliant @chrislhayes.bsky.social to talk about war as content, how he thinks about his role in the attention economy, what scares him about AI, and Big Tech X Trump.

Here’s my interview with Shishir Mehotra, the CEO behind Grammarly’s “expert review” feature which attributed writing advice to people - including me lol - without permission. Or, as you will hear us talk about a lot, compensation. www.theverge.com/podcast/8987...

Driven by MAHA and the manosphere, some men are boosting their testosterone through diets and TRT, and competitively comparing their test results, in a bid to be "High T." From @matthabusby.bsky.social: www.wired.com/story/the-me...

NEW: from pickup artists filming drunk women to pranks on retail workers, @milesklee.bsky.social looked at how Meta Ray-Bans are making annoying men everyone's problem: www.wired.com/story/the-ri...

NEW: I went to the Polymarket "Situation Room" bar and it was a disaster. The host—Polymarket's head of growth—previously worked for MrBeast and that playbook was on full display even if the actual displays... didn't work. www.wired.com/story/polyma...

One eyewitness tells @wired.com she began filming after hearing a “horrible” scream while walking to her gate. The woman said it appeared that “two unidentified men” were grabbing “a woman trying to hold onto her child.” ICE is invading US airports. new from me and @telliotter.bsky.social:

This is so fucking funny

as per usual @roryjohnston.bsky.social summed it up perfectly: “This will be so, so, so, so, so bad."

A judge ordered Kalshi to immediately halt sports and election contracts in the state, intensifying a growing regulatory battle over prediction markets. www.wired.com/story/nevada...

“People have to be very aware that there’s a surveillance aspect to the data,” says one expert. “You're sharing your most intimate sexual thoughts because you're lost in the moment.” New from me for @wired.com on the privacy nightmares of ChatGPT smut. www.wired.com/story/chatgp...

Scoop: Records obtained by WIRED show an FCC enforcement director who oversees West Coast broadcasters - who is not a political staffer - quietly pledged to aide Brendan Carr's campaign against Disney and Jimmy Kimmel.

this rocks

"I started to at least realize that he was kind of a moron about many topics."

OUTTA HERE: This month,Tesla customers were outraged over what some called a “bait and switch” over the Full Self-Driving feature. And there's more: many other Tesla faithful are reaching breaking point. @milesklee.bsky.social has the full story for @wired.com www.wired.com/story/the-te...

Julia Angwin, an award-winning investigative journalist, is the only named plaintiff in the suit. She was among the many individuals, alongside Stephen King, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and even WIRED’s own staff, offered up via Grammarly’s “Expert Review” tool as a kind of virtual editor for users.

Earlier this month, WIRED reported on Grammarly’s controversial AI tool that presented editing suggestions as if they came from established authors and academics, without their consent. Now Grammarly parent company Superhuman is facing a class action lawsuit over the tool.

I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent. State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes. www.wired.com/story/gramma...

SCOOP: The writing software Grammarly will discontinue its AI “Expert Review” feature, which used the names of authors without their permission to suggest edits. But parent company Superhuman is still facing a class-action lawsuit over it, brought by journalist @juliaangwin.com.

Scoop: Grammarly is facing a class action lawsuit over its AI "expert review" tool, which presented advice from living and dead authors without their consent. Parent company Superhuman pulled the feature earlier today following backlash. by @milesklee.bsky.social www.wired.com/story/gramma...

This is wildly interesting to me, as someone who was suspended from high school for ~html coding~ a website making fun of my English teacher. You used to have to put WORK in to ridiculing your teachers, and is yet another place where AI has no role. Get suspended for being funny like a HUMAN BEING

NEW: I spoke to Louis Theroux about his new Netflix documentary Into the Manosphere which is out today. We spoke about Andrew Tate telling Louis he's no longer relevant, how the manosphere is a big grift, and what it's like being livestream while making a documentary www.wired.com/story/louis-...

Documentarian Louis Theroux talked to @davidgilbert.bsky.social about his new Netflix manosphere doc and what a grift the whole thing is. I found this exchange—about why being a good person is bad for business—illuminating, if not surprising: www.wired.com/story/louis-...

We talked to a teen who runs a "slander page" about his high school teachers, using AI to have staff sing and dance alongside Epstein and Netanyahu—or simply call them predators and cucks: www.wired.com/story/teens-...

SCOOP from @knibbs.bsky.social: Bluesky CEO Jay Graber is stepping down. Venture capitalist Toni Schneider will take over as interim CEO while the board searches for a permanent replacement www.wired.com/story/bluesk...

As promised, Anthropic is taking the Pentagon to court. from @peard33.bsky.social

Definitely didn't expect @jasooooon.bsky.social's Feeld being overrun by vanillas story to start with an ICE officer on the app: www.wired.com/story/feeld-...

Conversations w Jack Dorsey are always illuminating. Here he argues how massive Block layoffs signal how companies must drastically transform in the AI age. He also comments on Twitter, Bluesky, politics and journalism. And WIRED! .https://www.wired.com/story/jack-dorsey-explains-block-layoffs/

well well well if it isn't the consequences of someone's own actions (w @dell.bsky.social )

Once a simple proofreading tool, Grammarly is now bristling with AI features and a suite of "expert" agents based on the works of real authors. But the company doesn't ask permission and in some cases offers feedback from virtual versions of dead writers—including one historian who died in January.

Grammarly's new AI tools necromance famous dead authors, and "humanize" copy to make it sound less robotic. But it also failed to detect obvious plagiarism when @milesklee.bsky.social tried it: www.wired.com/story/gramma...

i have seen every single episode of this slightly cursed show and this is a very good blog from @manishakrishnan.bsky.social:

Paramount Skydance’s sprawling media empire will get a major boost if the deal gets approved. www.wired.com/story/everyt...

SCOOP: OpenAI fired an employee for their prediction market activity www.wired.com/story/openai...

EXCLUSIVE: Jeffrey Epstein's close friendship with Woody Allen is well-documented. What's less well-known? Epstein spent years trying to influence Woody Allen's casting process, and got his "girls" cast in at least 2 of Allen's movies. My story for @nymag.com www.thecut.com/article/wood...

If you've been watching Love Is Blind for years and feeling like it's become more and more blatantly MAGA-coded—with increasingly misogynist men, you're not alone. Had to blog it out. www.wired.com/story/love-i...

Incel slang is now so ingrained in the mainstream discourse that its origins have been obscured. How did we get here?
