Host Chatricia Overthinkington kicks off episode 126 of Stephan’s Daily Tech News with a warning about QR‑code traffic‑violation scams and a look at the mental toll of social‑media addiction. The show then rockets to space‑toilet failures, debates Adam Back as Satoshi, teases Apple’s upcoming foldable iPhone, and reveals AI giants banding together to block Chinese model‑theft while Anthropic locks away a hacking‑powerful Claude model. Finally, we hear about the CIA’s heartbeat‑detecting rescue tech, Soderbergh’s AI‑driven films, Meta’s new Muse Spark, and a surge of AI‑generated apps flooding the App Store.
