Wish them luck! First up: the FTC slaps GM’s OnStar on the wrist for selling location data, while Fitbit logs and vacuum camera feeds continue to feature prominently in murder trials and messy divorces across the globe.  Is your home appliance empire plotting against you? You may just want to throw all your smart electronics into the sea after all. Then, the guys look at how an AI tool hallucinated nuclear materials on a Chinese ship, sending military jets into the air before anyone noticed the glitch.  A recent, terrifying moment that almost tricked military command into an accidental war over a mislabeled cargo manifest. Finally, the boys break down Xiaomi’s new $31,000 Sky Nomad SUV line - a feature-packed EV that Western auto giants are desperately trying to ignore, risking repeating the 1970s Japanese auto invasion all over again.  Driving an old heap with zero Bluetooth capability might just save your sanity.
