Apple News accidentally spoiled Avengers: Endgame, Game of Thrones
Whoops!

[Warning: this post contains major spoilers for Avengers: Endgame. If you haven’t watched the film, reading further might ruin your experience.]
It’s a great time for pop culture fans. Last week, the world’s most anticipated movie, Avengers: Endgame, opened in theaters across the globe. Earlier this month, Game of Thrones’ final season started, ending this generation’s most popular television show. Everyone wants to join in on the experience. Naturally, spoilers will turn anyone into a public enemy in an instant.
However, spoilers can come from anywhere. If you haven’t decreased your social media diet, you might be surprised with where spoilers can suddenly pop up. Case in point, Apple users were in for a surprise recently.
For most Apple users, Apple News is an innovative feed for both news pieces and interesting articles. Like other news curators, the app provides a look at the world’s media every day.
Given today’s pop culture, Apple News constantly covers articles related to Avengers and Game of Thrones. That said, yesterday’s front page wasn’t a surprise: an Avengers and Game of Thrones collection. However, the headline was. It simply read “Prepare for those Avengers and Thrones deaths.” Likewise, the subtitle read “Warning: You’re gonna cry this weekend.”
Of course, most fans already knew about the possibility of death in either franchises. Though technically a spoiler, the headline was relatively light compared to other possible spoilers.
However, the all-too telling cover photo didn’t help. The collection featured a photo of a gravestone sitting beside a character from each franchise. If you’ve watched Endgame, you’ll know that one character is a confirmed casualty at the end of the movie. Meanwhile, given Game of Thrones’ nature, the other character is a potential victim, especially with leaks popping up. You can view the photo here. [Final warning: the photo contains major spoilers!]
Thankfully, the collection didn’t last long. A few hours later, the photo disappeared, revealing a spoiler-free front page. Some will contend that the photo doesn’t reveal much, especially if you haven’t watched Endgame yet. Regardless, Apple also saw the spoiler potential. Thankfully, the company took it down before anything could happen.

Roblox
Roblox describes itself as “the ultimate virtual universe that lets you create, share experiences with friends”.
It appears to be very popular with kids. And some K-Pop groups have even launched partnerships with the game during their mini album releases.
Mobile Legends: Bang Bang
Mobile Legends: Bang Bang or simply Mobile Legends is a game many of you should be familiar with, especially if you live in Southeast Asia.
It’s become the de facto MOBA game for many in the region. So much so that huge tournaments have been held over the past few years.
Call of Duty: Mobile
Call of Duty is already a popular franchise on its own. It also found huge success in Asia with its mobile version.
Call of Duty is no stranger to seasonal content as even their flagship titles operate in the same manner year after year. This is likely why players keep coming back.
Genshin Impact
Genshin Impact took the world by storm when it first launched in 2020. The anime-like art style along with the engaging gameplay and story made it a huge hit.
HoYoverse continues to provide fresh content to this day, expanding the already vast world in the game.

The race for artificial intelligence is a hot trail. Amid the unbridled popularity of ChatGPT, several companies have started pushing their own language models out the gate. Google, eager to compete in the emerging industry, has now opened Bard to users.
Today, Google has started issuing invitations to Google One subscribers for a chance to try the new chatbot. Subscribers can enter a waitlist to test the technology for themselves.
In essence, Bard acts the same as ChatGPT. Users can talk to the bot conversationally, and it will respond perfectly, as if you were talking to another human being. It’s a language learning model. By talking to so many users, the model can learn the best way to reply to certain prompts.
Although Google has access to its search engine, Bard is currently meant to complement it. The company warns users that the chatbot is still prone to occasional mistakes. As an example, it gave the wrong scientific name for a plant. While this example is innocuous, there can be more nefarious errors that the developers are still trying to fix. With a wider test now open to the public, Google hopes to fix more egregious mistakes ahead of a wider launch.
For now, if you subscribe to Google’s premium subscription service, you can wait in line to try out the new technology.
