Not everyone is a football person — but a whole heck of a lot of people love Bad Bunny.

Spotify's most-streamed artist of 2025 is set to headline the Super Bowl's halftime show, set to take place on Sunday. There's lots of interest in what songs he'll play — most likely a number of hits from his Grammy-winning album DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS — and what message he'll send. Bad Bunny has openly spoken out against ICE — even at the Grammys — and might send a political message to all of America during his performance.

So we've got you covered if the Patriots vs. Seahawks matchup seems like a snoozer, but the show seems like a party.

When to watch Bad Bunny's Super Bowl LX halftime show

Unfortunately, football games are not a uniform length so there is no exact way to know when to tune-in for the halftime show. The game is scheduled to kickoff at 6:30 p.m. ET on NBC (or streaming on Peacock).

In general, past games have shown that a typical Super Bowl broadcast lasts around 3 hours and 44 minutes. That means you can expect halftime roughly 90 minutes after kickoff and for Bad Bunny to hit the stage around 8 p.m. ET.

But, again, football games can go for longer or shorter times depending on stoppages, penalties, and a whole host of other factors. Just to be safe, it might be best to tune-in around 7:30 p.m. ET to check the game-clock. You can even mute the sound until Bad Bunny takes the stage.

TL;DR: The Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones are down to $298 on Amazon. That's $101.99 off their usual $399.99 price.

If you’ve been waiting for a serious price drop on Sony’s XM5 headphones, Amazon has given you a great reason to stick with the older model. As of Feb. 5, Amazon has the Sony WH-1000XM5 noise-canceling headphones on sale for $298, knocking over $100 off the list price. This deal also applies to the midnight blue and smoky pink color models. 

When released back in May 2022, these headphones were known for delivering some of the best active noise cancellation you could get in a consumer headset at the time, as mentioned in our review. Sony has used dual processors and eight microphones to actively block out everything from airplane engines to everyday background chatter.

With that, whether you’re commuting, working from home, traveling, or even gaming on your Nintendo Switch or Switch 2 console, they do an excellent job of keeping distractions at bay.

Sound quality is another highlight that’s still relevant over three years later and worth the price. The XM5s offer a balanced, detailed listening experience that works just as well for podcasts and movies as it does for high-quality music streaming. You’ll also get up to 30 hours of battery life on a single charge, plus fast charging that can deliver hours of playback in just a few minutes.

Comfort hasn’t been overlooked either. The lightweight design, soft-fit leather ear cups, and refined headband make these easy to wear for long sessions without fatigue.

If you are willing to spend a little more on the newer model, the XM6 headphones are also on sale at Amazon. For those still shopping around various brands, Mashable has a roundup of the best headphones you can buy right now. 

In 2026, everyone is looking to get off their phone. If you're trying to tame your screen time habits, you'll need a new outlet to stop your scrolling. Even if you've figured out how to cut back your screen time, whether it be through Bricking your phone or putting it in another room, that doesn't actually solve the issue of your attention.

If you're feeling a bit bored, first, congrats! Second, now's the time to turn your unused attention toward analog activities. Maybe you're looking for something to do while watching TV, or you just want to have a completely screen-free evening. Regardless, it's time to bring back the activity book.

That's right, it's time to take pen to paper and busy your mind. This can be as lowkey as a coloring book or as stimulating as a crossword. Here are seven activity books to go analog with in 2026.

Man, I hated Splitsville. It's that kind of comedy that's clearly written by its male lead, because it focuses on a loser who has no charm and a mess of a life, yet manages to attract impossibly beautiful women. And Splitsville has two of these frustrating heroes, played by co-writers Kyle Marvin and Michael Angelo Covino, who also directs.

The plot focuses on two men who think the secret to a happy marriage with a super hot wife is an open relationship. But shocker, that doesn't go as they'd like. Exhausting, tedious, and unfunny, Splitsville is technically a movie. — Kristy Puchko, Entertainment Editor

Starring: Dakota Johnson, Adria Arjona, Michael Angelo Covino, and Kyle Marvin

How to watch: Splitsville is now streaming on Hulu.

12. Is it Cake? Valentines

Bakers descend once again to create confections that resemble an array of non-food items, like statues, lips, drums, and more. And hey, because of Valentine's Day, this time it's couples competing. Plus, lots of hearts, and host Mikey Day in a pink suit.

11. Relationship Goals

Kelly Rowland leads Prime Video's new rom-com Relationship Goals, which is casting enough to see me seated. The Destiny's Child icon plays Leah Caldwell, a high-flying producer who's on track to be the first female showrunner at MediaCore studio. That is, until she’s pitted against a male candidate, Jarrett Roy (Cliff "Method Man" Smith). Even worse, they have romantic history together and straight-up despise each other. Even worse, they’re thrown together to produce a show about love and relationships, based on a book Jarrett's reading: Michael Todd's 2020 book Relationship Goals, which happens to be the basis of the film itself.

Starring: Kelly Rowland, Cliff "Method Man" Smith, Robin Thede, Annie Gonzalez, Dennis Haysbert, and Matt Walsh

9. Field Generals: History of the Black Quarterback

With Super Bowl LX on the horizon, Peacock has the perfect four-part sports docuseries for you to start this week. Taking a weekly look at the history of Black quarterbacks in American pro football, Field Generals: History of the Black Quarterback delves into the trailblazers of the sport, who revolutionised the game despite the prejudice, discrimination, and even threats they experienced. Over four weeks, the series tracks "firsts" in the sport, like Doug Williams becoming the first Black quarterback to both start in and win a Super Bowl, and how current star quarterbacks like Lamar Jackson look up to these pioneers. Expect interviews with legendary quarterbacks including Williams, James "Shack" Harris, Randall Cunningham, Warren Moon, and many, many more. — S.C.

Starring: James "Shack" Harris, Warren Moon, Doug Williams, Randall Cunningham, Vince Evans, Chuck Ealey, Rodney Peete, Donovan McNabb, Michael Vick, and Lamar Jackson, in addition to Michael Wilbon, Rich McKay, Joe Gibbs, Michael Eric Dyson, Jayne Kennedy, Bomani Jones, Michael Beschloss, and Bob Costas.

8. Even If This Love Disappears Tonight

My heart, it can't take this week's Korean romance addition to Netflix. Based on Japanese author Misaki Ichijo's 2020 YA romance novel, Even If This Love Disappears Tonight follows high school sweethearts Han Seo-yun (Shin Si-a, The Witch: Part 2. The Other One) and Kim Jae-won (Choo Young-woo, Head Over Heels), who fall hard for each other fast. However, Han Seo-yun experiences anterograde amnesia, which means her memories reset each day, and her love story returns to square one. Directed by Kim Hye-young (It's Okay!), this film promises big swelling tears, so if you're due for a cry, pick this one. — S.C.

Starring: Choo Young-woo and Shin Si-a

How to watch: Even If This Love Disappears Tonight is now streaming on Netflix.

7. The Housemaid

Looking for a trashy popcorn movie? Well, The Housemaid should satisfy on that level.

Based on Freida McFadden's novel of the same name, The Housemaid stars Sydney Sweeney as a desperate young woman who is grateful the titular job, and eager to please her mercurial new boss, played by Amanda Seyfried in psycho-biddy mode. While movie audiences turned out in droves for this sexy thriller, I couldn't help but wish its leading ladies were evenly matched in go-for-it gravitas. As I wrote in my review, "In this battle of wild wills, Seyfried is left to shadowbox while Sweeney sleepwalks. Far from fun, The Housemaid is underwhelming as an erotic thriller, a dark comedy, and even a Sydney Sweeney movie." — K.P.

Starring: Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried, and Brandon Sklenar

How to watch: The Housemaid is now available for rent or purchase on Prime Video.

6. The 'Burbs

Inspired by the Tom Hanks-fronted 1989 cult classic, The 'Burbs stars Keke Palmer as a wife, mother, and litigator whose maternity leave includes moving to the suburbs, only to discover a possible criminal conspiracy under her nose.

Befriending some nosy neighbors (Julia Duffy, Paula Pell, and What We Do in the Shadows' Mark Proksch), she begins to investigate the local lore around a long missing girl, and what exactly that has to do with the strange Victorian house across the street.

Season one is eight episodes, which are dropping all at once. So, brace for a binge-watch if you can't get enough of wacky shenanigans, wild secrets, and a twisty mystery. — K.P.

Starring: Keke Palmer, Jack Whitehall, Julia Duffy, Paula Pell, Mark Proksch, and Kapil Talwalkar

How to watch: The 'Burbs premieres on Peacock on Feb. 8.

5. Puppy Bowl XXII

As Super Bowl LX looms, and the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots stare down the championship road, there's another litter of extraordinary athletes gearing up for a big game by doing biiiiiiiiig streeeeetches.

The Puppy Bowl returns for its 22nd year, as Team Fluff goes snoot to snoot with Team Ruff, vying for the ultimate forbidden snack, the Lombarky trophy. Importantly, the Puppy Bowl XXII is a special occasion for viewers to potentially adopt one of the adorable players. A total 150 pups from 72 shelters will be featured during the event, all of whom are adoptable, including senior dogs and dogs with special needs. As a rescue dog parent, hard recommend. — S.C.

Starring: Miss Coco, Brûlée, Button, Litchi, RuPaw, Lobster Roll, Carrie Pawshaw, Oscar, Benito, Fudge, Cheesecake, and Chappell Bone

How to watch: Puppy Bowl XXII airs Feb. 8 at 2 p.m. ET on Animal Planet and will stream at the same time on discovery+.

4. The Secret Agent

Kleber Mendonça Filho's Oscar–nominated, BAFTA–nominated, Golden Globe–winning political crime thriller The Secret Agent is finally available to watch at home — and you absolutely should. Set mostly in the '70s during Brazil's military dictatorship, the film sees Civil War star Wagner Moura delivering a riveting performance as a man trying to evade persecution in his own country.

"Mendonça Filho's film explores a time of political corruption, violence, and warranted paranoia through a human lens," I wrote in my review. "With Moura's powerful performance framed by a reverent, authentic aesthetic, The Secret Agent is a deeply humanised look at a historical moment of authoritarianism and government corruption. It's a must-see." — S.C.

Starring: Wagner Moura, Carlos Francisco, Tânia Maria, Robério Diógenes, Alice Carvalho, Gabriel Leone, Maria Fernanda Cândido, Hermila Guedes, Isabél Zuaa, and Udo Kier

How to watch: The Secret Agent is now available for rental or purchase on Prime Video.

It'll begin at 2 p.m. ET, and the first gold medal event will be men's downhill skiing on Feb. 7.

So, whether you like ice skating, skiing, hockey, curling, or snowboarding, you're sure to find reasons to thrill over 2026's Olympic Games. — K.P.

How to watch: XXV Winter Olympic Games will begin streaming live on Peacock on Feb. 6, and will run until Feb. 22.

2. Super Bowl LX

Super Bowl LX is imminent, with the Seattle Seahawks taking on the New England Patriots on Sunday. Maybe you're here for the championship game (human or puppy-based), maybe you're here for Bad Bunny and Green Day's halftime show, maybe you're here purely for the ads. Whatever the reason, you'll need chips, dip, and Mashable's cheat sheet to sounding like you know what you're talking about with Super Bowl LX. — S.C.

Starring: Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots

How to watch: Super Bowl LX airs live on Peacock on Feb. 8, with coverage beginning at 12 p.m. ET.

Best of Streaming this week: The Muppet Show

This is what we call The Muppet Show! For decades, all kinds of folks have tried to reinvent the Muppets. There's been successes (Jason Segel's The Muppets was brilliant), and flops (the 2015 "sad-com" also called The Muppets). But Jim Henson's The Muppet Show was perfect just the way it was. Thankfully, producer Seth Rogen gets that.

For Disney+, Rogen and company meticulously recreated the sets and the chaotic and cheeky — while family-friendly — vibes of The Muppet Show. So, one moment, you're watching Sabrina Carpenter (who's a perfect guest star for the variety show shenanigans) singing "Manchild" to a rowdy crowd of Muppet bar patrons, while chickens serve as her back-up dancers. The next moment, Miss Piggy is bullying Kermit for more stage time, and it's like no time has passed.

As someone who has seen the highs and lows of Muppet movies and shows, I approached Rogen's relaunch with cautious optimism. And I'm pleased to report he's a perfect producer for the wildest batch of dreamers Hollywood has ever seen. This special had me laughing and cheering, with a terrific finale that blends a rock classic with that Muppet ensemble showmanship, I cried. Here's hoping this is the first of many more Muppet Shows. — K.P.

Starring: Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Seth Rogen, Sabrina Carpenter, and Maya Rudolph

How to watch: The Muppet Show is now streaming on Disney+.

Online dating as a lesbian can be a joyous experience, but it can also involve having your space invaded by straight people or seeing your ex-girlfriends (and your ex-girlfriends' ex-girlfriends) show up in your feed over and over.

Over the decades, queer women have turned to personal ads, frequented bars, and relied on word of mouth to find love. These days, it's not too different. From trying to find a date on WLW TikTok to entrapranureal lesbians creating new apps just for them, LGBTQ women are down to get creative to find their special someone.

Thankfully, in 2026, there are both niche and general apps where queer women can find a partner — whether for one night or for life. Which ones are the best dating apps for lesbians? We tested the most popular dating sites and apps and got some insight from our Dating & Relationships writers to find out.

How to find the best dating apps for lesbians Niche lesbian dating apps aren't your only option for finding love. Credit: Stacey Zhu / Mashable

Mainstream dating apps attract the most users — including queer users. That means niche lesbian dating apps aren't your only options for finding love. These days, Hinge, Bumble, OkCupid, and even eharmony all have clear filters to help you match with people of the same gender (or any gender at all), as well as filters that acknowledge the existence of non-traditional relationships (like polyamory). Especially if you don't live in a densely populated area, going for the more popular dating apps over lesbian dating sites can often lead to more results.

With that said, there is one dating app lesbian women should try. HER is an app by and for queer women, and it's grown to have a strong user base. According to its website, the app has more than 15 million registered users worldwide. The app also emphasizes finding community and making friends, in addition to dating, providing you with numerous ways to connect with other queer women and non-binary users.

Check out our guide below for the full rundown of our recommendations and dating app reviews.

It looks as though Jon Stewart wasn't the only late night host mentioned in the Epstein files. The Late Show's Stephen Colbert has not also addressed being name-dropped in the most recently released batch of files, which contain information on the investigation into convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Fortunately, like Stewart, Colbert wasn't actually involved in Epstein's activities, and was only mentioned in emails. Specifically, one of Epstein's associates recommended he watch Colbert's explanation of Super PACs from his former show The Colbert Report.

"Well, there's no such thing as bad publicity," quipped Colbert. "Just look at our new Times Square billboard: 'The Late Show: It's really funny — think Jeffrey will enjoy watching!'"

Colbert also noted a few other names in the Epstein files which he considers particularly important as a giant Tolkien nerd.

"These files contain the names of folks even more important to me than me, because Epstein also name-dropped Bilbo Baggins, and at one point he compared himself to Gandalf," said Colbert. "All right, that is disgusting. In the immortal words of Gandalf the Grey, 'Eat shit you dead pervert.' It sounds prettier in Elvish."

Netflix has released a teaser trailer for upcoming K-drama Boyfriend on Demand, featuring BLACKPINK's Jisoo living BookTok's wildest dreams.

The series follows overworked webtoon producer Mi-rae (Jisoo), who is tired of her job and fed up with dating, but still dreams of romance and escape. Fortunately for her, Mi-rae soon finds some relief in a subscription-based virtual dating service that allows her to go on amazing fantasy dates with unrealistically perfect fictional men. Judging from the trailer, she even gets to try out different scenarios with her virtual dates, such as being doctors in a hospital or lovers in a historical setting.

Yet even with the world of possibilities this outlet provides, Mi-rae does still have to deal with real men — such as her coworker and rival Kyeong-nam (Doom at Your Service's Seo In-guk).  

Boyfriend on Demand arrives March 6 on Netflix.

The 2026 Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show was held in New York this week, celebrating its 150th anniversary the best way it knows how — with a plethora of perfect pups.

This year's Westminster Dog Show featured over 2,500 entrants from across the world, all of whom were already American Kennel Club champions in their own right. These dogs were categorised into seven groups: Sporting, Herding, Working, Toy, Hound, Non-Sporting, and Terrier. The winner of each group then went on to compete for the coveted title of Best in Show, with dogs individually judged according to the ideal standard for their breed.

This year, the Westminster Kennel Club's award for Best in Show went to four-year-old Doberman Pinscher Penny, the champion of the Working Group. Penny's handler Andy Linton described her as generally "chill," though she can get worked up by a "bad guy" or squirrel, while her co-owner Gregory Chan called her demanding, smart, and "a pleaser — she'll do anything for food."

Reserve Best in Show went to Cota the Chesapeake Bay Retriever, winner of the Sporting Group. Presumably Cota will assume Penny's duties as Best in Show if for any reason she cannot fulfil them.

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

If you find yourself stuck at any step of today's Hurdle, don't worry! We have you covered.

Welcome to your guide to Pips, the latest game in the New York Times catalogue.

Released in August 2025, the Pips puts a unique spin on dominoes, creating a fun single-player experience that could become your next daily gaming habit.

Currently, if you're stuck, the game only offers to reveal the entire puzzle, forcing you to move onto the next difficulty level and start over. However, we have you covered! Below are piecemeal answers that will serve as hints so that you can find your way through each difficulty level.

How to play Pips

If you've ever played dominoes, you'll have a passing familiarity for how Pips is played. As we've shared in our previous hints stories for Pips, the tiles, like dominoes, are placed vertically or horizontally and connect with each other. The main difference between a traditional game of dominoes and Pips is the color-coded conditions you have to address. The touching tiles don't necessarily have to match.

SEE ALSO: Wordle today: Answer, hints for February 5, 2026

The conditions you have to meet are specific to the color-coded spaces. For example, if it provides a single number, every side of a tile in that space must add up to the number provided. It is possible – and common – for only half a tile to be within a color-coded space.

Here are common examples you'll run into across the difficulty levels:

• Number: All the pips in this space must add up to the number.

• Equal: Every domino half in this space must be the same number of pips.

• Not Equal: Every domino half in this space must have a completely different number of pips.

• Less than: Every domino half in this space must add up to less than the number.

• Greater than: Every domino half in this space must add up to more than the number.

If an area does not have any color coding, it means there are no conditions on the portions of dominoes within those spaces.

Today's Connections: Sports Edition will be easy if you're a fan of pro racing and tennis.

As we've shared in previous hints stories, this is a version of the popular New York Times word game that seeks to test the knowledge of sports fans.

Like the original Connections, the game is all about finding the "common threads between words." And just like Wordle, Connections resets after midnight and each new set of words gets trickier and trickier — so we've served up some hints and tips to get you over the hurdle.

If you just want to be told today's puzzle, you can jump to the end of this article for the latest Connections solution. But if you'd rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.

The NYT's latest daily word game has launched in association with The Athletic, the New York Times property that provides the publication's sports coverage. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake — players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

Not the day you're after? Here's the solution to today's Connections.

Rumors are swirling that Anthropic is close to releasing Claude Sonnet 5, a new version of its mid-tier AI model that could significantly shift the competitive landscape for large language models.

Multiple reports published in early February suggest Claude Sonnet 5 is imminent, with some industry watchers pointing to signs of internal testing and quiet rollout preparation. While Anthropic has not formally announced a release date, speculation intensified after developers and analysts began referencing "Sonnet 5" in public forums and social posts.

SEE ALSO: Anthropic Super Bowl LX ads mock ChatGPT

According to UCStrategies, Claude Sonnet 5 is expected to deliver major performance gains while maintaining the pricing structure that has made Sonnet attractive to developers. The outlet reports that the model may match or exceed the capabilities of Anthropic’s higher-end Opus 4.5 model while remaining significantly cheaper to run, a combination that could make it especially appealing for enterprise and coding workloads.

Cost efficiency appears to be a central theme. Coverage from Geeky Gadgets suggests Sonnet 5 could cost roughly half as much as Opus 4.5, while offering faster inference and stronger agent-style capabilities, including improved context retention and multitasking. That positions the model as a direct challenger not just to Anthropic’s own lineup, but also to OpenAI's and Google’s upcoming releases.

There are also rumors that Claude Sonnet 5 will deepen its integration with Claude Code, Anthropic’s developer-focused environment. Several analysts cited by UCStrategies speculate that the model could outperform Opus in coding tasks, particularly in long-running workflows that benefit from sustained context and structured reasoning.

Based on the weekend’s viral hype around AI agents, you’d be forgiven for thinking we’re inching closer to a Cyberpunk future once reserved for sci-fi books and video games. And while that trajectory may be real, we’re also nowhere near full-blown cyber-dystopia just yet.

Still, the tech world has found something new to fixate on. As of now, it's a website called Rentahuman.ai, where humans can quite literally sell their labor to AI agents. The Rent-a-Human platform was created by crypto software engineer Alexander Liteplo after the sudden success of OpenClaw and Moltbook, and it proudly bills itself as "the meatspace layer for AI." (Mashable reached out to Liteplo for comment but did not receive a response.)

Think TaskRabbit, but for autonomous agents that need humans to do physical-world tasks they can’t.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Rent-a-Human launched quietly over the weekend before exploding in visibility after Liteplo began aggressively promoting it on X. According to the site, more than 81,000 "rentable humans" have already signed up to offer paid services to bots, at the time of this writing. The actual tasks, at least for now, seem limited. The tasks themselves range from mundane errands like picking up packages to holding signs or delivering flowers to Anthropic.

It’s also hard to tell whether Rent-a-Human is meant as satire or a sincere attempt at a new labor market, but the signs point to the latter. Crypto culture doesn't have the best reputation, and the site doesn’t do much to signal a wink. As Gizmodo pointed out in its coverage, phrases like "meatspace" and copy that reads "robots need your body" feel less like a joke and more like someone earnestly pitching Neuromancer as a startup deck.

Furthermore, it appears the site is part of a fast-growing ecosystem of AI agent tools that have exploded in popularity over the last few weeks, many of them orbiting around the open-source assistant formerly known as Clawdbot, then Moltbot, and now OpenClaw. As Mashable’s Timothy Beck Werth reported, the open-source OpenClaw project has gone viral among AI power users, despite repeated name changes prompted by trademark pressure from Anthropic.

SEE ALSO: OpenClaw Moltbook: What it is and how it works

As Mashable has documented across coverage of OpenClaw and its offshoots, projects like Rent-a-Human and Moltbook are built quickly through vibe coding, with creators openly admitting they ship code they don’t fully review, relying on AI models to fix bugs later.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Whether it actually works is another question. While the platform claims tens of thousands of humans have signed up, Gizmodo reports that only a small fraction have connected payment wallets, and there are far fewer active AI agents than available workers (82 agents to 81,000 humans).

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Rent-a-Human requires users to connect crypto wallets in order to get paid, and payments are handled entirely in cryptocurrency, including stablecoins and Ethereum. That alone raises obvious red flags, especially for a platform asking people to perform real-world tasks for anonymous AI agents with no meaningful verification process.

The site’s design places a lot of trust on both sides of the transaction, with very little protection in place for the human doing the work. Tasks are posted by bots or bot operators who may not be identifiable, payments are non-reversible once sent, and users are expected to operate through crypto wallets that could be compromised if mishandled.

Unsurprisingly, many crypto enthusiasts are fully on board. Rentahuman has been heavily promoted by crypto and AI agent accounts on X, many of whom frame it as an inevitable step toward autonomous economies in which bots transact directly with humans. That enthusiasm doesn’t do much to calm concerns, especially given the crypto industry’s long history of rug pulls.

It's too soon to tell for sure whether Rent-a-Human is the start of a new AI gig worker economy or a very elaborate satire, but as with the overnight success of Moltbook, proceed with caution.
