  • Hot Girl Scroll: Social Media Addiction Trial, Melania’s Robot & The Controversial App Axed
    Mar 26 2026

    From a landmark lawsuit on social media addiction to a humanoid robot making an appearance at the White House, the internet moves so fast that if you blink, you’ve missed half of it.

    This week, we’re unpacking the three tech stories you need to be across. We look at the Los Angeles jury that found Meta and Google liable for millions in damages, marking a massive win in the fight against app features designed to hook minors.

    Plus, we’re stepping inside the White House where Melania Trump has welcomed a human-shaped AI guest to pitch the future of 'robot teachers'.

    And, why has OpenAI suddenly pulled the plug on its viral video-generation tool, Sora? We’re joined by futurist Mark Pesce to unpack it all.
