Nvidia says the RTX 5090 is alive. Its availability begs to differ

The company insists its flagship gaming GPU isn't going anywhere, even as retailers pull listings and stock becomes practically mythical.

Nvidia wants gamers to know that the GeForce RTX 5090 isn't dead. Finding one, however, is starting to feel like a side quest with an impossible difficulty setting. The company has confirmed that its flagship gaming GPU will continue shipping, even as retailers pull listings, stock dries up, and prices reportedly reach a staggering $8,500 on Amazon. For those of you keeping score, that's more than four times its original $1,999 MSRP, which makes the RTX 5090 less of a gaming upgrade and more of a financial decision requiring a family meeting.

Keeping it alive and keeping it available are two very different things

What’s next for humanoid robots? Groping and sexual assault, apparently

German police investigate robot over alleged sexual harassment of teenage girl

Humanoid Robot

German authorities have launched an investigation after a robot allegedly touched a 16-year-old girl inappropriately and made sexual gestures on a street in Cologne. Police have seized the robot and the mobile phones of two young men suspected of controlling it, as investigators try to establish whether its movements were programmed in advance or directed in real time.

The incident raises unusual questions about accountability when robots are used to harass people in public. The suspected owner, aged 16, and his 19-year-old companion have not been charged, but police are investigating possible sexual harassment. Authorities say they are unfamiliar with a case of this kind, making it an unusual challenge for law enforcement.

US banks want to block AI agents from moving your money. Well, at least that’s one good move.

Letting a chatbot handle your finances sounds convenient until someone asks who pays for its mistakes.

AI agents want to handle more of your life, including your money, but US banks are drawing a line when these AI assistants try to move funds on your behalf. Charles Schwab and JPMorgan Chase are now restricting outside AI agents from taking financial actions, citing security risks and unanswered questions about who takes responsibility when things go wrong.

Charles Schwab CEO Rick Wurster told Bloomberg that Schwab is actively blocking unauthorized AI agents, including Meta's Muse, from moving client money. JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon made a similar call this week, so this isn't just one bank being cautious.
