Hey, it's Paige from Giggly Squad and I want to let you know that if you want the newest and hottest beauty products, you have to go to Sephora. I'm obsessed with the one size Liquid Blotting paper spray. It's the first of its kind blotting spray that mattifies for up to eight hours. It's unreal. There's also the Summer Friday shade drops SPF 50, which basically lives in my bag at this point. Oh, and the Kayali Eden Plush Pear smells so good. It's sweet, warm and addictive. Like people literally stop me and ask what perfume I'm wearing, which you know I love.

These are the daily tech headlines for Saturday, June 6, 2026. I'm Sarah Lane. Let's catch up on the news with WWDC 2026 right around the corner. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports Apple will focus on AI led by a rebuilt Siri that becomes a chat GPT style assistant with conversational chat, personal context, deeper app control, web search, and support for multiple AI models like Claude and Gemini. IOS27, iOS27 and other updates are said to emphasize performance, battery life, reliability and AI features, including smarter photo editing, visual intelligence, writing tools and natural language automation rather than major design changes. The Wall Street Journal sources say US Officials have discussed taking equity stakes in major AI companies, an idea reportedly promoted by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and as a way to let the public share in AI's economic gains and potentially ease concerns about job disruption. The discussions are part of a broader push for more government involvement in strategic industries, although investments would also expose taxpayers to market risks. The concept is similar to proposals for public wealth funds that would invest in AI companies and distribute returns to citizens. Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed what they say is the first AI vaccine component to be tested in humans. The vaccine uses AI to create a super antigen that could provide broad protection against entire virus families, including current and future coronaviruses, with the goal of preventing future pandemics rather than chasing new variants. Early human trials showed the approach is safe and generated modest immune responses. Researchers are also applying the same technique to universal flu, bird flu and Ebola vaccines. 404 Media reports that after it revealed an internal Microsoft strategy document describing a goal to make people addicted to its AI, Assistant Scout Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella told employees he didn't know what the document was or who wrote it and said addiction was absolutely a non goal. The article argues this response is misleading because the document was reportedly authored by senior Microsoft executives, including scout leader Omar Shaheen. 404 Media also criticizes Microsoft for declining to address its questions before that article got published. Nuclear startup Antares announced that its small modular reactor prototype reached criticality at Idaho National Laboratory, meaning it achieved a self sustaining nuclear reaction for the first time. The test reactor isn't generating electricity yet, but the milestone validates the company's design and safety models and as it works towards licensing and commercial deployment. Antares uses Triso Fuel. That's a newer fuel technology designed to improve reactor safety and plans to test a full power generated system next year with support from the US government and military. Google has agreed to pay SpaceX about $30 billion through 2029 for computing power under a long term cloud services deal. The agreement calls for payments of roughly $920 million per per month starting in October and represents one of the largest AI infrastructure contracts announced to date. The deal highlights the growing demand for computing capacity as major technology companies are all racing to expand their AI capabilities. Nvidia apparently wants robotics and physical AI to be its next big growth area. During a visit to Seoul, Korea, CEO Jensen Huang argued the country's manufacturing strength makes it well suited to lead in AI powered automation. The that's robotics, autonomous systems and AI infrastructure looking like Nvidia's broader strategy is to extend AI beyond data centers and into real world machines like robots, vehicles and industrial systems. A massive Utah data center project has been scaled back by about 50% after strong local opposition over water use, environmental impacts, electricity costs and transparency concerns. The project team is said to have acknowledged failure to engage the public early enough and that they screwed it up, promising greater transparency going forward. The dispute is part of a broader trend of public resistance to large AI driven data center developments across the US Due to concerns over resource consumption and local impacts.
