What’s happened? On October 24, 2025, NBA fans streaming with Amazon Prime Video will get access to new features for a better user experience. These features will improve areas like personalization, engagement, streaming quality, and AI integration. The new features are:

  • FanDuel integration for tracking bets and odds in real-time.
  • Fully customizable Multiview, which gives you the ability to simultaneously watch different NBA games on one screen, or across various screens.
  • Key Moments will show you short clips of the major highlights of the game.
  • Rapid recap, which uses AI to curate short videos of all key moments in the game.
  • Accessible in-game stats for any player on the court or the various teams playing.
  • HDR video and proprietary ultra-low latency tech.

Why is this important? The new features are part of a landmark 11-year streaming deal between the NBA and Amazon. It aims to make streaming the game more enjoyable for fans using the service. With the season preparing to officially start later this month, fans can expect a better viewing experience.

  • These new features will help you access more information on the game from their device’s screen.
  • Helps ensure you don’t miss any part of the game.
  • Gives you full control over which games they view.
  • All controls are built into the Amazon Prime Video viewing interface for accessibility.

Why should I care? These new features are game-changing for fans who stream NBA games on Amazon Prime Video. If you use Prime Video, you’ll be able to enjoy the new features during the 2025/2026 season.

  • The new features are available on an Amazon Prime Video subscription for $14.99 a month.
  • Users of other membership plans can also access these features.
  • Amazon is making these new features available on the web, mobile app, or smart TV.
  • All NBA games will be available in native 1080p High Dynamic Range (HDR) video and 5.1 surround sound.

Okay, what’s next? The 11-year streaming deal that led to the birth of these features also includes the WNBA league. So, by next year, when the WNBA league is back on screens, you’ll also be able to enjoy these features while streaming.

YouTube is reworking the Home page with Custom Feeds and quicker access to Subscriptions
Saved Custom Feeds are rolling out as YouTube also experiments with a redesigned Home navigation bar.

YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.

YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.

EXCLUSIVE: How Klara and the Sun warns of a future where humans compete with AI
What Does Klara and the Sun Say About the Dangers of AI?
Jenna Ortega stars in Klara and the Sun.

Artificial intelligence has already changed people's lives, both at home and at work, but what happens when people start treating AI as a replacement for their loved ones? Filmmaker Taika Waititi explores this terrifying idea with his new sci-fi movie, Klara and the Sun. Based on the novel by Kazuo Ishiguro, the film follows Klara, a solar-powered "Artificial Friend" played by Jenna Ortega, as she bonds with Josie, a sick teenager.

Klara and the Sun paints an unusual, unsettling portrait of a world with AI. Essentially The Wizard of Oz meets Blade Runner, Waititi's dystopian film is filled with his brand of vibrant visuals and quirky humor. But beneath all that, the film tells a deeper, more serious story about AI and whether it can cause the downfall of society and human connection.

Spotify has kicked 50 million AI slop tracks out of your recommendations
Spotify is cleaning up your music recommendations, and AI-generated spam is finally getting the boot.

Finding new music on Spotify is one of those little joys that can turn an ordinary day around. You play a song you love, let the recommendations take over, and occasionally stumble upon an artist you wish you’d discovered sooner. But with AI making it ridiculously easy to produce music in bulk, not everything landing in your recommendations deserves a listen.

Spotify knows this is becoming a problem, and it’s acting on it. The streaming giant has revealed it filtered more than 50 million spammy, low-quality tracks from its recommendations this year. That’s on top of another 75 million tracks it has completely removed from the platform for repeatedly or seriously breaking its rules. And Spotify isn’t stopping there — it wants to make sure actual artists aren’t buried under an endless stream of AI-generated content.
