"Welp, that happened faster than I predicted."

That's what Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince had to say as his company released data finding that there's now more traffic from bots than humans on the internet.

"Thought it would be end of 2027, then early 2027 but agentic traffic growing so fast that bots have now passed human traffic online for the first time in the Internet's history," said Prince.

Cloudflare is perhaps one of the most integral companies on the web, providing services like CDN (Content Delivery Network) and DDoS mitigation for some of the biggest sites on the internet. Cloudflare basically helps popular sites handle all the traffic they receive, so the company is certainly an expert in this realm.

Cloudflare's data shows that at any given point during a day, between 52 percent and 62 percent of traffic on the internet comes from bots. Over the past seven days, Cloudflare says roughly 57.4 percent of traffic has been the result of bots, which includes search crawlers from companies like Google and AI bots from other AI companies. Around 42.5 percent of internet traffic has been from humans.

Cloudflare's data also breaks down which countries have the most bot-related traffic, which provides even more interesting insight. The island of Gibraltar ranks first in bot traffic with a whopping 92.1 percent. Singapore comes in second with 76.3 percent, closely followed by Iran with 76.2 percent. Rounding out the top five countries in bot traffic are Ireland, with 72.8 percent, and the Netherlands, with 68.8 percent.

Bots such as website crawlers and search indexers have been around since the early days of the internet. But there hasn't been a sudden surge in those types of bots. Cloudflare's data shows that the uptick has been the result of AI agents or agentic AI bots scouring the web to both scrape content for data training and acting on behalf of human users utilizing AI assistants and chatbots.

But, as the tech outlet Tom's Hardware points out, Cloudflare's data only tracks website visits and not what the visitor, bot or human, is actually doing on the page. Humans actually consume the content on the webpages. Humans watch videos and read articles. They don't just scrape or index and move on to the next page as bots do. As a result, AI agents load more web pages than a human visitor, which helps explain the rising bot traffic.

There's something special about a Polaroid photo. We've all come to rely on snapping pictures with our phones to store in the cloud, but we never seem to get around to printing out any physical memories. And that's where Polaroid shines. The new Polaroid Go gen 3 is a mini instant-film camera that turns any moment into a mini printed photo.

  Shop Now What makes the Polaroid Go Gen 3 great

Polaroid says that the Go Gen 3 is the world's smallest instant analog camera. It weighs just 8.9 ounces without film, which is about half a pound. Its dimensions are small enough to fit in the palm of your hand. There's also the impressive range of colorway options with the latest model.

What if we want one of each? Credit: Polaroid

The photos themselves are also tiny, measuring 2.6 inches in height and 2.1 inches wide. The included wrist strap makes it easy to carry the camera on outings, and it comes with some upgraded functions from Polaroid.

The Gen 3 has a selfie timer as well as a built-in selfie mirror for getting the best group shots possible. There's also a double exposure mode for getting creative. A stronger flash is helpful for taking low-light photos.

The small size makes the Polaroid Go gen 3 great for any adventure. Credit: Polaroid

In the brand's press release, Stine Bauer Dahlberg, the chief product officer, said, "We focused on perfecting the optical system, integrating a genuinely powerful flash, and optimizing the camera for great, close-up selfies of you and your friends. Every decision supports how people actually use a camera this small, while delivering strong performance across different lighting conditions."

While the camera itself is analog and perfect for spending less time attached to a phone, you can still use the Polaroid app for more benefits. From the app, scan your Polaroid to share the image with friends.

Keep in mind you'll need to use Polaroid Go film with the new Go camera. A pack of 16 photos sells for $21.99, which means each photo costs $1.32.

With a price of $89.99, the new Polaroid Go Gen 3 makes for a great gift or party accessory. It's already available at both Amazon and Polaroid.

SAVE $9 PER MONTH: Today only, Prime members and Prime Video subscribers can score the Starz streaming add-on for just $2.99 per month for two months. That's $9 per month in savings.

I've said it once, and I'll say it again: Starz is an underrated streaming service. If you've exhausted the streaming catalog on Netflix and Hulu and need to diversify your movie and TV lineup this season, it's a great time to give it a shot. Today only, the Starz add-on for Prime Video is just $2.99 per month.

Through June 4 only, Prime members and Prime Video subscribers can add the Starz streaming app to their library for $2.99 per month for two months. A quiet price hike will go into effect for the streaming service on June 8, bumping its monthly cost from $10.99 to $11.99. So you'll be saving $9 per month, or a total of $18, by grabbing this deal.

Starz is home to Lionsgate theatrical releases, so you'll be able to watch recent hits like The Housemaid, Now You See Me: Now You Don't, and Greenland 2: Migration. Not to mention, it has its own original series that are pretty epic, including a TV adaptation of Lisa Taddeo's book Three Women, a comedy about a female serial killer called Sweetpea, and the historical fantasy show Outlander, which just wrapped its final season.

Switch up your streaming lineup for the summer and save some money by snagging a two-month subscription to Starz for a grand total of $5.98. That's pretty hard to beat in this economy.

Apple will reportedly lean on Nvidia to fuel the next generation of Siri.

The Information reported that Apple will "tap into Google’s fleet of Nvidia’s Blackwell B200 data center chips" to power requests from the new AI-enhanced Siri, which will allegedly go online with the launch of iOS 27 later this year. It's already been established that the new Siri will be based on Google's Gemini AI model, so Apple utilizing a Google fleet of Nvidia data center chips makes sense.

SEE ALSO: Siri’s Google brain: What to expect at WWDC 2026

In layman's terms, the main thing to know about this is that Nvidia's Blackwell architecture allows for large-scale AI usage with high degrees of memory bandwidth and other important things you need to make a popular chatbot work. These chips also have the ability to encrypt data that comes through them, which would help maintain Apple's high privacy standards as it attempts to catch up to the rest of the tech industry with AI features on its devices.

The new Siri hasn't officially been shown off yet, but it's widely expected that it will exist in the form of a chatbot with its own dedicated app once iOS 27 launches. It will be able to remember personal context for the user as well as read anything that's on screen, giving it capabilities far beyond what Siri has been able to do previously.

We should find out come Monday, when Apple hosts its annual developer conference, WWDC 2026.

If you have summer hydration goals but don't feel like downing water bottle after water bottle, consider the options the Ninja Slushi brings to the table. With it, you can kick back with a slushy version of nearly any beverage.

Mashable Senior Shopping Reporter Leah Stodart reviewed the Ninja Slushi and found it to be an ideal way to enjoy a frozen treat. Instead of running to the local convenience store or ordering a spendy frosé during dinner out, whip up your own favorites at home.

"The Slushi achieves that chef's kiss chilled consistency via Ninja's RapidChill Technology, which involves an auger spinning around a cooling cylinder," explained Stodart in the review. "This approach can take room temperature ingredients from liquid to, well, slushy, in under an hour."

Stodart tested out the Slushi by Slushi-ing White Claws plus simple syrup, Pepsi, a blueberry vanilla protein milkshake, and electrolyte drink powder. "Past this week of testing, I could totally see the Slushi getting weekly use in my household," she wrote.

If you're looking for a way to jazz up summer beverages, the Ninja Slushi is ready to bring on the fun treats. Remember to use code SLUSH at checkout to score your new favorite kitchen appliance for $233.99.

A great gaming monitor doesn’t need to take up your entire desk, and Amazon has just knocked a seriously speedy ASUS ROG Strix display down to its best price yet. 

As of June 4, the ASUS ROG Strix 27-inch 1440P USB-C HDR gaming monitor (XG27ACMS) is on sale at Amazon for $249, down from its typical $349 price. This 29% discount means $100 off the 27-inch Fast IPS model, with the listing currently shipped and sold by Amazon itself, free returns included, and faster delivery available for Prime members.

This cut has also taken the monitor to its lowest price ever (as seen on price tracker camelcamelcamel), not hitting a price point this low since December last year.

Along with a 2560 x 1440 QHD display, you’re getting a refresh rate as high as 320Hz when overclocked. This is exactly the kind of spec you want for shooters like Marathon, racing games like Forza Horizon 6, and even single-player games like 007: First Light, where smooth motion can make the gaming experience even better.

If all those Hz during high-octane titles make you worry about screen-tearing, though, ASUS’ added Extreme Low Motion Blur Sync works to keep that to a minimum — along with ghosting. 

The model in the ROG Strix range also comes with G-SYNC compatibility, DisplayHDR 400 support, USB-C with DisplayPort Alt Mode, and ASUS’ DisplayWidget Center software, so you can tweak monitor settings with a mouse instead of going through trial and error with on-screen buttons.

If you’re open to a monitor that’s a bit bigger, Samsung's 32-inch Odyssey G5 QHD gaming monitor has dropped to a record low price on Amazon, too. 

On the off-chance you may want to make the jump to QD-OLED, you can also save $350 on this 34-inch ASUS ROG Strix Ultrawide QD-OLED gaming monitor.

If you’re also a Pokémon TCG fan, although currently not available on Amazon, the newly announced Pitch Black expansion — Booster Packs, ETBs, Display Boxes, and Booster Bundles — is available to preorder at TCGplayer.

Despite being massively unpopular even with Republicans, there's one part of Trump's anti-weaponization fund – a deal Trump struck with the DOJ that would have set up a $1.8 billion slush fund for people claiming political persecution – that he's still fighting to keep: an immunity deal that would protect him and his family from IRS audits.

"I'm sorry, what? He gets permanent immunity from tax crimes?" asks a shocked Seth Meyers in the Late Night clip above. "I've never heard of that. Even if you're acquitted in a murder trial, the jury doesn't say, 'You're free to go, and you'll never be tried again for any murder!

"It's especially insane when you consider what we already know," Meyers continues. "For years Trump did not pay any federal income taxes; in 2016 and 2017 he paid only $750 in income tax; and according to a 2024 report he may owe more than $100 million in back taxes. Now, you might be wondering why Trump owes $100 million in back taxes. The answer is actually very complex. You see, it has to do with long-term depreciation of assets and capital expenditures carried over multiple fiscal years, and itemized deductions from adjusted gross income, and I'm just f***ing with you, he cheated. He cheated on his taxes."

Google-owned robotaxi company Waymo is giving a new life to its old electric vehicle batteries — by using them to fill energy gaps in local grids.

Instead of recycling the retired batteries, Waymo's initiative will squeeze the last drops of electricity from them, and dispatch that power where it's most needed.

B2U Storage Solutions, which Waymo has partnered with on the initiative, says its EV battery storage systems "act as a vital reservoir." They absorb surplus solar power during midday peaks then send it back to the grid during high-demand periods, typically in the late afternoon. 

SEE ALSO: Can Waymo and Waze fix cities' potholes?

To begin with, that extra energy will benefit California and Texas, two states in which the company already does plenty of business. Cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, Houston, Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio are all serviced by Waymo. The Waymo/B2U partnership will deploy hundreds of megawatts of storage capacity across the grids, the companies say.

That's not a huge amount — the greater Los Angeles region receives about 8,100 megawatts of electric capacity from the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, the nation’s largest municipal utility — but it can replace the dirty energy often used to support the grid during periods of high demand, from gas turbines to burning trash.

"Our shared fleet of EVs provide a massive opportunity to support the growth of clean energy on the electricity grid while expanding the circular economy," Adam Lenz, Waymo's Head of Sustainability & Environment, said in a statement.

Whether it's for playing your favorite tunes or as part of your TV's surround-sound setup, a high-quality speaker can go a long way. The Sonos Era 300 is one we praised as having "Absolutely huge sound" back in its original review, and if you've been hoping to pick it up, the good news is Amazon's knocked $100 off its price tag right now.

Usually, the Sonos Era 300 speaker is listed for $479, but both the black and white models of it are marked down to $379 at Amazon as of June 4. Sure, its lowest-ever price is a bit lower at $359, but it's just a $20 difference between the two. Ahead of Prime Day, it's still a deal worthy of jumping on while it's still available.

Whether you're already part of the Sonos ecosystem or this is your first jump into it, the Sonos Era 300 delivers big, clear sound. In our review, Mashable's Stan Schroeder said of its sound quality that, "Most smart speakers are built from compromises, and I typically want to equalize the sound this or that way, depending on what's playing. Not the Sonos Era 300; it sounds great no matter what you play."

However, he noted that "its design is a little lackluster," but if you care more about what comes out of it than how it looks, it can certainly deliver. Plus, if you already have other Sonos speakers like the Sonos Beam Gen 2 or Sonos Arc Ultra, you can pair them up for one incredible surround sound setup at home.

This discount on the Sonos Era 300 is a great one to jump on before Prime Day. Don't miss out on it at Amazon.

While we slowly build up to the Pitch Black expansion’s July release date in the Pokémon TCG, you can increasingly grab products from Chaos Rising closer to market price — especially the ETB. 

As of June 4, Amazon has multiple marketplace listings for the Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution — Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box under $100. The lowest-priced option is currently $99.72 via Collectors Expedition, with free delivery listed for June 10-11. Meanwhile, Prime Picks has it for $99.79 with free delivery from June 9-11. If you would rather stick with Amazon as both the direct seller and shipper, though, that listing is still available at $102.55. 

What’s more, you can save even more money if you’re open to shopping for trading cards outside of Amazon. Walmart currently has the same box listed for $84.99 through a third-party seller, as well, and TCGplayer’s unopened listings are also starting at $84.99 with shipping included, with both even dipping below its $85.27 market price.

Of course, you’ll get the same contents no matter which of the three you buy your Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box from: nine booster packs from the expansion, one full-art foil promo card featuring Fennekin, 65 card sleeves, 40 Pokémon TCG Energy cards, a player’s guide, six damage-counter dice, one competition-legal coin-flip die, one plastic coin, a collector’s box with six dividers, and a Pokémon TCG Live code card.

If you’re unsure of all the valuable cards you can potentially pull, the full selection of the most expensive chase cards is available to buy separately on TCGplayer, as well — including Mega Floette ex, Mega Greninja ex, Mega Pyroar ex, Cinccino ex, and Mega Dragalge ex. 

To get even more boosters for less, the Pokémon TCG’s 36-pack Chaos Rising Booster Display Box is on sale for $265. If you don’t want to spend that much, you can also buy the six-pack Chaos Rising Booster Bundle for under $60. 

Although currently not available on Amazon, the Pokémon TCG’s newly announced Pitch Black expansion — Booster Packs, ETBs, Display Boxes, and Booster Bundles — is available to preorder at TCGplayer.

Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference is days away. Here's what the iPhone Ultra rumors, Apple's track record and Siri's new Google powers tell us about what to expect.

Donald Trump Jr. has released a honeymoon video following the wedding his father was unable to attend, and it's every bit as ick-inducing as you'd expect.

"They made their blessed union Instagram official, they posted a honeymoon video," says Jimmy Kimmel in the monologue above. "Now this is something that regular people do all the time — for a sitting president's son, I believe this is a first. And hopefully a last."

Kimmel then proceeds to play the video, complete with cheesy music and slow motion. His reaction? Fake projectile vomiting over poor Guillermo, multiple times.

The Ecovacs Deebot X11 OmniCyclone boasts quite a hefty build, and it certainly means business for your floors if you live in a larger home. When it comes to vacuuming, it delivers 19,500Pa of suction to clear debris from your floors. And there's no need to worry about hair tangles, as it even has anti-tangle brushes that keep it from slowing down.

Harder surfaces will also get a deep mopping clean from the Ecovacs Deebot X11 OmniCyclone, thanks to the OZMO Roller 2.0 with TruEdge 3.0, which helps reach tight spots and clean up any spills. It won't take the mopping to your carpets, either, as it has a Triple Lift System that raises the roller mop as the robot moves across carpets so they don't get all wet.

If it's caught your eye, now is the time to save big on the Ecovacs Deebot X11 OmniCyclone robot vacuum and mop at Amazon.
