So TikTok's making AI avatars that can speak more languages than your high school French teacher! Custom and stock, they promise a "human touch"—as human as a computer-generated face can be.

Bacteria are basically teenagers at a paintball fight, using pieces of dead viruses to gang up on each other. It's like the microbial version of "Game of Thrones," only with fewer dragons and more petrified DNA.
