"Lin's ordeal, detailed in Zoë Schiffer's new book, "Extremely Hardcore: Inside Elon Musk's Twitter," offers an unprecedented glimpse into the chaos that ensued after Musk's takeover in October 2022.

Microsoft and OpenAI have disclosed how nation-state-backed hacking groups from Russia, North Korea, Iran, and China are harnessing the power of advanced AI tools, such as ChatGPT, to fortify their cyber-attack strategies.
"Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is continuing his divestment from the e-commerce giant, recent regulatory filings indicating the sale of more than $4 billion in stock over the past week. This follows earlier reporting of Bezos' 50-million share sell-off plan to be completed by 2025, through Morgan Stanley as his brokerage firm.
"Elon Musk, the visionary behind SpaceX, has once again captured public imagination with his audacious blueprint for interplanetary colonization. Musk's latest pronouncements outline a staggering ambition: to transport one million humans to Mars, a goal he shared in a succinct response on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
President Donald Trump moved to loosen export restrictions on artificial intelligence hardware, announcing that the United States will allow Nvidia's H200 chips-its second-most advanced AI semiconductors-to be shipped to China under a 25% fee structure. The move, disclosed in a Truth Social post and later clarified by White House officials, marks a significant reversal in Washington's effort to curtail Beijing's access to high-end computing power.
Elon Musk has ignited a transatlantic political fight after the European Union fined X £105 million ($140 million) for alleged violations of the Digital Services Act, prompting the billionaire to denounce the ruling as "bulls---" and call for the EU to be abolished. The escalating confrontation has drawn in senior U.S. officials, raised questions about global tech regulation, and triggered retaliatory action from X against an official EU advertising account.
Scientists observing the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS are reporting unprecedented methane-related activity and carbon-rich chemistry, identifying a set of prebiotic molecules never before seen in an object from another star system. NASA researchers say the comet is releasing methanol at levels that dwarf those found in typical solar system comets, marking one of the most chemically unusual interstellar visitors ever recorded. The discovery offers new insight into how life-supporting molecules may form in distant planetary systems.
A senior LinkedIn executive is pushing back against dire warnings from Elon Musk and Bill Gates that artificial intelligence will eliminate most jobs, arguing that hiring trends across the platform show no evidence of a collapse in labor demand - even in roles widely viewed as vulnerable to automation. The claim adds a new data-driven perspective to the global debate over whether AI is reshaping work or erasing it.
NASA's newest Hubble Space Telescope image of interstellar object 3I/ATLAS has intensified scientific scrutiny after confirming a sharply defined, sunward-pointing anti-tail-an alignment that astrophysicists say should not exist under standard comet physics. The November 30, 2025 image, captured with Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3 using the F350LP filter, shows a spherical glow extending 40,000 kilometres around the nucleus and a narrow, coherent sunward extension reaching approximately 60,000 kilometres.
A dramatic new image from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has intensified scientific debate around the disintegration of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, with Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb arguing that the object's striking 60,000-kilometre anti-tail extension aligns "in perfect agreement" with his prediction that the comet fragmented into numerous large bodies after its close brush with the sun.
A widening Republican rift over how the United States should regulate artificial intelligence is colliding with the White House's effort to impose a single national standard, setting up a potential governance clash with implications for the tech sector, state governments and global competitiveness. Senate Republicans this week blocked an administration-backed proposal to impose a federal AI moratorium, a move that maintains state authority to craft their own rules even as President Donald Trump argues that fragmented oversight threatens innovation.
A rare interstellar encounter between the European Space Agency's Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer and the fast-moving comet 3I/ATLAS has given astronomers an early glimpse of what appears to be a highly active visitor from beyond the Solar System. The observation occurred as the comet passed near the spacecraft in November, offering researchers an unusual chance to capture data from only the third interstellar object ever recorded.
Astronomers are reassessing long-held theories of comet formation after new observations of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS revealed what researchers describe as unusually intense and widespread cryovolcanic activity. The object-only the third interstellar visitor ever detected-registered a sharp and sustained increase in brightness in 2025, prompting scientists to consider whether an eruption of volatile materials occurred across its surface as it moved within roughly 2.5 astronomical units of the Sun.
Apple is preparing to enter the foldable smartphone market in 2026, positioning a device widely referred to as the iPhone Fold as its first major hardware expansion since the arrival of the Apple Vision Pro. The move places Apple directly into competition with Samsung and other early leaders in foldable technology, as analysts and suppliers signal that the company has advanced its design and manufacturing plans. Multiple industry researchers, including Ming-Chi Kuo and Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, say Apple is targeting a launch window next year as development accelerates across its supply chain.
