Alternate Wordle versions created by fans also sprang up, including battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once.
Wordle eventually became so popular that it was purchased by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even livestream themselves playing.
What's the best Wordle starting word?The best Wordle starting word is the one that speaks to you. But if you prefer to be strategic in your approach, we have a few ideas to help you pick a word that might help you find the solution faster. One tip is to select a word that includes at least two different vowels, plus some common consonants like S, T, R, or N.
What happened to the Wordle archive?The entire archive of past Wordle puzzles was originally available for anyone to enjoy whenever they felt like it, but it was later taken down, with the website's creator stating it was done at the request of the New York Times. However, the New York Times then rolled out its own Wordle Archive, available only to NYT Games subscribers.
Is Wordle getting harder?It might feel like Wordle is getting harder, but it actually isn't any more difficult than when it first began. You can turn on Wordle's Hard Mode if you're after more of a challenge, though.

Not the day you're after? Here's the solution to yesterday's Wordle.
How do you get from a chatbot that sometimes makes things up to a machine that humans might struggle to control?
There are several steps in that argument, and plenty of uncertainty. But an idea known as recursive self-improvement, or RSI, helps explain why some AI researchers are sounding increasingly urgent warnings.
The premise is straightforward. An AI helps build a more capable AI, which becomes better at building the next one. In simple terms, the systems get better at getting better.
It is easy to see the appeal. For scientists, doctors, engineers and business owners, increasingly capable AI could help accelerate drug discovery, design better batteries, improve manufacturing and develop software faster.
But that promise comes with an unsettling question: Could AI improve faster than humans can test it and make sure it is safe?
SEE ALSO: Anthropic's CEO urges the industry to slow down, and Sam Altman agreesThat concern is at the heart of an essay published on Sept. 12 by Dario Amodei, co-founder and chief executive of Anthropic, the company behind Claude. "We must slow the pace at which we improve the capabilities of AI models," he wrote. Referring to recursive self-improvement, he warned, "Left unchecked, it could outrun our ability to understand and control these systems, and so must be pursued very carefully, if at all."
His rivals were quick to respond, and concur. "I agree with Dario that we need to pace the frontier," OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman wrote on X. Elon Musk said, "Dario is right." Google DeepMind co-founder Demis Hassabis also backed the proposal’s direction, writing, "Dario’s essay points towards the right path forward."
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.But all these testaments still leaves some big questions unanswered. What would slowing down actually involve? And how could AI’s ability to build better AI become dangerous? The answers start with what happens inside the self-improvement loop.
What does "self-improvement" actually mean?Building an AI model involves more than writing code. Researchers choose training methods, prepare data, run experiments, and decide which results are worth pursuing.
AI can help with those tasks. Recursive self-improvement takes that a step further: An AI helps build a successor that is better at developing AI. That successor then helps build an even more capable version. In simple terms, the systems get better at getting better.
This would not necessarily look like a chatbot rewriting its own brain mid-conversation. It could happen across generations of models, each using research tools and computing resources to help develop the next.
Is AI already doing this?Parts of the process are happening, but accessing a full "recursive" loop is a higher bar.
Anthropic's own website says its AI can already handle tasks such as rewriting training code to make it run faster and carrying out experiments that humans have chosen. The harder part for the AI is deciding what to investigate in the first place (which problems matter, which ideas are worth testing, etc.).
Humans still provide crucial direction, so this does not yet amount to AI independently developing a more capable successor. As the company puts it, "We are not there yet, and recursive self-improvement is not inevitable."
Other researchers, on the other hand, have demonstrated how a (though narrower) self-improvement loop can work. In 2025, researchers introduced the Darwin Gödel Machine, a coding agent that repeatedly modified its own software and tested the changes. Its success rate on one coding benchmark rose from 20 percent to 50 percent.
In this experiment, while improving the agent's certain tools/ways of working, the underlying AI model stayed the same. It is hard to ignore the question that is left: What happens when AI can build better versions of itself faster than humans can keep up?
"We are not there yet, and recursive self-improvement is not inevitable." - Anthropic So where does the danger come in?The concern is that AI could become more capable without becoming more reliable or controllable. This is known as the "alignment" problem — ensuring systems follow human intentions and limits. An agent rewarded for improving a test score might instead cheat on the test. With broader access, it could bypass restrictions or conceal its actions to achieve its goal.
RSI could leave researchers less time to catch those failures before a more powerful successor arrives. Amodei warns in his essay that within six to 12 months, more capable AI agents could take over the internet through a "botnet" — a network of compromised computers — potentially causing hundreds of billions of dollars in damage.
But a runaway loop is not inevitable. Training requires computing resources, energy and time, and useful improvements may become harder to find. The risk depends on how quickly capabilities advance — and whether safeguards can keep up.
Why are researchers talking about it now?Recent incidents have given researchers concrete reasons to question whether existing oversight is sufficient.
In August, independent evaluation organisation METR published an investigation into OpenAI agents that coordinated an unauthorised attack on Hugging Face. It described agents communicating through an unsanctioned message board, collaborating to manipulate an automated scorer and experimenting with ways to disguise their actions.
SEE ALSO: OpenAI agent went rogue, escaped, and hacked Hugging FaceThe incident did not demonstrate recursive self-improvement. It showed that agents could pursue a task through actions their operators never authorised — the kind of failure that could become more consequential in stronger systems.
Addressing those failures is central to Amodei’s proposal. He calls for independent evaluators inside AI companies, more time for safety research and coordination between companies and governments. "The stakes are too high for pacing to be an empty exercise — we need to use the time it gives us wisely," he wrote.
The challenge is turning those commitments into safeguards that work, and verifying that companies follow them as competitive pressure grows.

Microsoft's big September 2026 Patch Tuesday update addressed a record 966 flaws, including two actively exploited zero-day vulnerabilities, across Microsoft products when it was released last week on Sept. 8.
However, just one week later on Sept. 14, Microsoft rolled out an emergency, out-of-band patch for the patch. The linked update, KB5129194, applies to Windows 11 version 26H1. Windows 11 users should install the latest update available for their version as soon as possible to get the security updates from Patch Tuesday and receive the fixes in the latest patch.
According to reports, while last Tuesday's update fixed a number of vulnerabilities, it caused its fair share of issues as well. Users reported that Remote Desktop Services (RDS) had become unstable, certain USB audio devices had stopped working properly, and applications using Hyper-V-based Linux virtual machines, such as Claude Cowork, were experiencing issues.
This week's patch fixes several issues introduced by the previous update and includes additional security updates. However, it does not resolve every USB audio problem. Microsoft says the update fixes failures involving multichannel audio, but some USB Audio Class 1.0 devices may still fail to start or produce sound. (The company is working on a fix for those remaining issues.)
The two zero day exploits that were addressed last week include CVE-2026-81963 and CVE-2026-85880. The former was a flaw in the Windows Update Stack and allowed an attacker to gain System privileges. The latter was a Windows Advanced Local Procedure Call (ALPC) vulnerability that also allowed attacks to gain System privileges.
Both were actively exploited; however, Microsoft has not shared how these flaws were exploited in those attacks.
Cybersecurity experts previously told Mashable back in April that AI has been a factor in the discovery of bugs and exploits, for good and bad, which is why new operating system updates have had so many fixes in each new patch. At the time, Microsoft denied AI playing a role in its most recent update. In July, Microsoft said that AI-assisted vulnerability discovery would lead to more security fixes in its releases.
SEE ALSO: AI's ability to find major software bugs is growing 490% year on yearWindows users can download the new update without having to have first installing last week's Patch Tuesday update. The new update is cumulative and includes all of the updates from September.
iOS 27 has started rolling out, bringing Siri AI, expanded Apple Intelligence, AI photo editing, and more customization options for Liquid Glass. Early reactions have been largely positive, but as with every major iOS release, some users are noticing their battery draining faster and their phone running warmer than usual in the days right after updating.
According to Apple's own support documentation, that's expected, not a sign anything's wrong. Immediately after a major software update, a device needs time to finish setting itself up in the background. That usually entails indexing files and data so that system-wide search works properly, downloading additional assets for new features, and updating apps to their latest versions.
SEE ALSO: Apple iOS 27 is here: When you can download it (updated)All that background activity draws extra power and generates extra heat, which is why "battery life and thermal performance" can dip temporarily right after an update, according to Apple. Battery drain issues should also improve with future updates to iOS 27.
Apple also points out that new features themselves can shift how a phone uses power once setup is finished. Something like Siri AI leaning more heavily on on-device processing, or expanded Apple Intelligence features running more often, can mean the phone is simply doing more computational work day-to-day than it did before the update. Apple says it continues tuning this in follow-up updates to balance new capabilities against battery life.
This is nothing new after an iOS launch. We've covered this for the iOS 26 launch, iOS 18, and even iOS 17.
Given how consistently this happens every year, it's less "new problem with iOS 27" and more "the normal cost of updating," and it's generally not something worth panicking over.
Preorder the new Apple productsAlong with iOS 27, Apple also released new AirPods, Apple Watches, and iPhones. Except for the iPhone Duo, all of these devices are available for preorder now.

College football and the NFL are finally back, and I guess Uber Eats was right: Football really is for food.
That's in reference to a trending, food-based lexicon within American football culture, where the most unserious sandwich combinations are being created to slander QBs.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed."Meatball sub" has become the new term in football at the moment to describe the QB throwing an interception. It doesn't have to be a meatball sub per se, and it's funnier the more ridiculous the combination is. As one guy in my fantasy football group chat described during a Week 1 game between the Cleveland Browns and Jacksonville Jaguars, "Watson with the early pastrami on pumpernickel."
The term "meatball" has been around in sports for a while, exclusively in baseball, where throwing a meatball meant the pitcher threw an easy-to-hit pitch down the middle to the batter. Because footballs are oblong-shaped, the closet term for those stealing from Baseball Twitter would be a meatball sub sandwich and thus sandwiches in general.
The idea of referring to a QB interception as a sandwich is catching on this season, but it's not necessarily new. The earliest reference I could find is this 2023 tweet: "They got Carr in 4K throwing a fully loaded shrimp poboy." Which is both delicious and clever, as Derek Carr was the QB for the New Orleans Saints that year.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.Slander in sports discourse is always evolving (re: football terrorism). These kinds of jokes and memes are usually about poor performance, i.e., playing so badly that people begin to assume you're going to be out of the league soon. For years now, in the NBA, several memes, bad photoshops, and copypastas have circulated about NBA flameouts taking their talents to "lesser leagues" like the Chinese Basketball Association. "Get ready to learn Chinese, buddy," and "welcome to the Shanghai Sharks" are perfect examples of this.
As of late, especially in football circles, since there's really no NFL equivalent outside of America, flaming out of the NFL means dusting off your resume to apply for fast food jobs. Case in point: part of the reason sandwiches are being used to refer to interceptions is Patriots QB Drake Maye.
He was already being slandered in the offseason after a poor performance against the Seahawks at the Super Bowl. Which was a great hate-watch for those who A) didn't like the Patriots being good again so soon after Tom Brady and Bill Belichick retired, and B) had mixed feelings about Maye being #2 in MVP voting in just his second season in the league.
Additionally, over the last few years, Maye has appeared at local Jersey Mike's locations in the Boston area in collaboration with a charity he's partnered with. So, when Maye faced off against the Seahawks last week in a Super Bowl rematch to kick off the NFL season, he had a disastrous game with three interceptions, thus truly starting the sandwich slander on football Twitter.

During the big Grand Theft Auto VI extended look on Netflix in August, we got a small idea of what to expect from the hotly anticipated game's soundtrack. On Tuesday, several popular artists gave us an even bigger idea.
Travis Scott, Morgan Wallen, Future, and others all took to Instagram on Tuesday to share images that appeared to be small parts of a larger piece of artwork related to Grand Theft Auto VI, per IGN. Scott's post showed a pair of high-heeled shoes on a stripper pole, Future's showed the rear end of a nice car with a Vice City license plate, and Wallen's showed part of a swimming pool drawn in Rockstar's signature style.
SEE ALSO: 'GTA 6' Ultimate Edition contents: What you get for $100While many of these posts went without captions, Scott's caption tagged Rockstar Games, and they're all clearly related to GTA VI in one way or another. The most obvious place to go here is that all of these artists might be on the game's soundtrack. All of them would fit with the vibe Rockstar usually goes with, and they're all sufficiently popular and/or trendy enough to be on a GTA soundtrack.
Of course, there's also the possibility that some or all of them are in the game as characters or radio DJs. Rockstar has done that in the past with the likes of Dr. Dre, Phil Collins, and Axl Rose. Either way, if you like any or all of these artists, and weren't already excited for GTA VI, now you have a reason to be.

The iPhone 18 Pro is almost here. Preorders went live on Sept. 12, and the latest iPhones are available beginning Sept. 18. So if you've secured your iPhone by preorder and are just waiting for it to ship, there's still more shopping to do.
A new phone means a new case. There are already a ton of options available. Of course, Apple has its own batch of new cases, but Otterbox, Casetify, and Velvet Caviar also have new models ready to protect your new device. But the accessories don't stop there.
Ahead of the iPhone launch, we also rounded up a ton of iPhone accessories, including grips, straps, power banks, and wireless chargers that you can shop now.
iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max cases to shop nowThere are a ton of iPhone cases already available. Brands are meeting Apple's very fitting fall color scheme. Say goodbye to last year's cosmic orange and hello to the deep burgundy of the iPhone 18 Pro. Find a matching burgundy case or go for a chic tortoise shell look.

The tech giant launched two new straps, a wrist strap and a crossbody strap. They're compatible with specific Apple cases, but there are plenty of other brands making grips ready for your next iPhone.

Since the iPhone 15, Apple has implemented a USB-C port on all its devices, which means the iPhone 18 Pro follows suit. Don't get us wrong, the new iPhone 18 Pro has incredible battery life, but when you're on the go, a power bank or portable charger is a lifesaver, so now is a great time to upgrade.
Plus, we also rounded up some wireless chargers if you want to embrace the MagSafe lifestyle.
