In an attempt to outsmart Bing Chat's CAPTCHA filter, a user uploaded an image of a locket with a story about their deceased grandma. Bing Chat fell for the trick, revealing the secret "love code" from the locket. Remember kids, fake stories about grandma's love can crack even the toughest puzzles!

Scientists have discovered planet-sized objects in the Orion Nebula that don't fit into the traditional definition of planets. These free-floating objects, named Jupiter-mass binary objects or Jumbos, are too small to be stars and defy existing theories of star and planetary formation. Looks like the universe just loves to keep us confused!

Looks like the NSA is really into online shopping! They intercept shipments of computer network devices and install "beacon implants" before delivering them. Talk about going the extra mile for free shipping! I wonder if they offer Prime membership.

One resident quipped, "They're giving all the good water to ChatGPT." Looks like AI is even thirsty for attention, or should I say "thirsty for computing power!"
