The AI-generated ad that aired during the NBA finals took $2,000 and 2 days to make
AI-generated commercials are ready for primetime.
If you watched the NBA finals on Wednesday, you may have seen an ad that features a shirtless elderly gentleman draped in an American flag, a farmer floating in an inflatable pool filled with eggs, an alien chugging a pitcher of beer, and a lady in a sparkly pink tracksuit driving a Zamboni.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.Once your eyes recovered from the unhinged scenes, you would be right in assuming that this ad was created using generative AI. What's more, the Kalshi AI ad only took $2,000 and two days to create, according to YouTuber and filmmaker PJ Ace, who created the commercial.
The AI creation was an advertisement for Kalshi, a market where users can place real-money trades on real-world events. Obviously, since it aired during the basketball game, the ad's AI-generated characters shared (yelled) whether they wanted the Oklahoma City Thunder or Indiana Pacers to win the championship (Indiana currently leads 2-1 in the series). But it also showed AI characters betting on things like whether the price of eggs would go up, hence the inflatable pool.
After posting the video on X, Kalshi confirmed that it was created using Veo 3, Google's latest AI video generator that also supports audio. Now that Veo 3 has been unleashed, the ability to create inexpensive and eye-catching videos is undeniably seductive to advertisers. Meta is going all in on AI-generated ads for its platforms and reportedly plans to fully automate ad creation by the end of next year, according to the Wall Street Journal.
"We were not specifically looking for an AI video at first, but after getting quotes from production companies that were in the six or seven figure range with timelines that didn't fit our needs, we decided to experiment," a Kalshi spokesperson told Mashable. "We did want some outrageous scenes as that fit the ad's theme of the world going mad; another factor here is that Veo-3 has a clip length limit of 8 seconds, so it was going to need to be structured as a commercial that cut around to different scenes quickly."
In a thread on X, Ace shared how he created the Kalshi AI ad. He said he was asked by Kalshi to "create a spot about people betting on various markets, including the NBA Finals" and decided to pursue this creative vision because "the best Veo 3 content is crazy people doing crazy things while showcasing your brand." And in a YouTube description of the video, Ace said, "Kalshi hired me to make the most unhinged NBA Finals commercial possible." He also predicted that "High-dopamine Veo 3 videos will be the ad trend of 2025."
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.Ace wrote a rough script of wild characters and dialogue, with brainstorming help from Gemini and ChatGPT, then started prompting. All in all, Ace said it took him "300–400 generations to get 15 usable clips," resulting in a commercial that he says is 95 percent cheaper than traditional ads.
The AI filmmaker, who has over 15 years of experience as a director, said that while this commercial was made inexpensively, some brands will still "pay a premium for taste." But the future of ads in his opinion, is "small teams making viral, brand-adjacent content weekly, getting 80 to 90 percent of the results for way less."
Anker recalls over one million of its popular power banks due to fire hazard
Tech company Anker has recalled more than one million of its popular power banks due to fire and burn hazards, according to a June 12 alert from the Consumer Products Safety Commission.
The brand has received 19 reports of fires and explosions from customers using the PowerCore 1000 A1263 model, which includes at least two instances of burn injuries and 11 property damage claims totaling over $60,700.
SEE ALSO: Apple will soon be ending support for Intel-based MacsAnker has since posted its own update on the developing situation, announcing that the company will be replacing the China-manufactured charging banks affected by the recall. In order to qualify for the replacement, customers must submit photo evidence that they own the indicated model, as well as proof that they have disposed of the device properly. The company has advised those customers not to throw their power banks in their standard trash recepticles, but to instead contact their local hazardous waste collection service for further instructions.
This isn't the first time that Anker has had to recall one of their portable batteries — the PowerCore 1000 A1263 is just one of four current recalls from the company. (The 334 MagGo 10K, 321 Power Bank 5K, and 535 Power Bank 20K have all been recalled as well). For more information on how to check if you have a qualifying Anker power bank, visit the company's official recall instruction page.
Best Buy is giving away free $100 gift cards when you buy the Samsung Galaxy Ring
FREE GIFT CARD WITH PURCHASE: When you purchase the Samsung Galaxy Ring at Best Buy ($399.99), you'll get a free $100 Best Buy gift card to spend on other tech.
Opens in a new window Credit: Samsung Samsung Galaxy Ring + free $100 Best Buy gift card Get DealThe only thing that tops saving money on a new tech purchase is getting free money from a new tech purchase. While the "creepily accurate" Samsung Galaxy Ring isn't currently on sale (it's rare to see it discounted), you can get $100 back to spend on another tech purchase when you buy one.
As of June 13, Best Buy is giving away free $100 gift cards with the purchase of all sizes and colors of the Samsung Galaxy Ring. Take your pick from black, gold, or silver. Once you make your purchase, the $100 Best Buy e-gift card will be created and send via the email address you have on file. Make sure it's a valid one; if not, you'll be asked to confirm and you must respond within 60 days to claim your free gift. Amazon is also running a similar deal, but stock is running low.
We're major fans of the Samsung Galaxy Ring — we even like it better than the popular Oura Ring. Our reviewer Kim Gedeon gave it a near-perfect rating and claimed it's "so good, it has made me consider the unthinkable: dropping my beloved Apple Watch Series 9 for the Korea-based tech giant's new wearable."
Standout features of the Galaxy Ring include an impressive six-day battery life, a comfortable and durable design (water resistance!), crazy-good health tracking and stress monitoring, and — unlike the Oura ring — zero subscription fees. Mashable's own reviewer wore the Galaxy Ring for a week straight and was shocked when it outperformed her Apple Watch Series 9. In other words, even at full cost, it's a worthy purchase. And considering you'll get $100 back to spend on other tech at Best Buy? It's a no-brainer.

Apples truly smart Siri is coming next spring, report claims
Apple's AI-enhanced Siri is probably coming in the spring of 2026, a new report claims.
This is according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who claims that this is an "internal release target" within Apple for the "delayed upgrade" of Siri.
In terms of iOS releases, Apple is targeting the iOS 26.4 software update to bring this new Siri into the world. For reference, Apple released the first iOS 26 beta to developers earlier this week, following a launch during Apple’s 2025 Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) keynote.
SEE ALSO: iOS 26 adds 'Emoji Game' for Apple News+ subscribersAnd while the iOS 26 release did come with a number of new Apple Intelligence features, Siri was mostly left the same as before.
Some of the features that are coming were announced more than a year ago, at Apple's WWDC 2024, which took place last June. This includes Siri being aware of what's happening on your iPhone's screen and providing personalized answers. Officially, this is coming with a future software update; according to Apple's senior vice president of software engineering Craig Federighi, that software update will be ready sometime next year.
In an interview at this year's WWDC, Federighi said that the problems arose when the company tried to consolidate two different Siri architectures, one dependable but without the new features, and the other far more advanced but ultimately not stable enough for a wide release yet.
According to Bloomberg's report, if all goes well, Apple might preview some of the new features when it launches the new iPhone this fall, but the timeline could shift and nothing is set in stone just yet.
Spaceballs 2 is on its way, with Mel Brooks, Bill Pullman, Rick Moranis, and Daphne Zuniga reprising their roles
The Schwartz has been awakened! That's right: Writer-director Mel Brooks' cult classic Spaceballs is getting a sequel, 40 years after the sci-fi parody's original release. Jury's still out on whether it will be called Spaceballs 2: The The Search for More Money, as the original film joked.
SEE ALSO: The 10 best movies of 2025 (so far), and where to watch themAmazon MGM Studios announced the sequel will be arriving in theaters in 2027, with a video of Brooks himself discussing making more Spaceballs.
"After 40 years, we asked, 'What do the fans want?'" Brooks says. "But instead, we're making this movie."
The video also sends up just how drastically the franchise landscape has changed since Spaceballs' 1987 release. In an opening title crawl, the video reminds us that there are now three Star Wars trilogies, several spin-off TV shows, and a whole host of other massive franchises, like "36 MCU movies with two different Robert Downey Jr.'s."
So where will Spaceballs 2 fit into the world of franchises? Is it a sequel? A prequel? A reboot? According to its log line, it's actually "A Non-Prequel Non-Reboot Sequel Part Two but with Reboot Elements Franchise Expansion Film."
While Spaceballs 2's plot details are currently under wraps, there's still lots to get excited about. Brooks will be reprising the role of Yogurt, Spaceballs' Yoda stand-in who encourages hero Lone Starr (Bill Pullman) to use the Schwartz.
According to Deadline, Pullman is also set to return in Spaceballs 2, along with Rick Moranis, who played Spaceballs' villainous Dark Helmet. The role would mark Moranis' return to live-action films after a hiatus of 28 years. (Moranis did do voice work, like Brother Bear, as well as TV work during this time.) TheWrap reported that Daphne Zuniga, who played Princess Vespa, will be back for Spaceballs 2 as well.
On top of the returning Spaceballs cast members, Spaceballs 2 will star Keke Palmer. Josh Gad is also expected to star. Gad wrote the script alongside Benji Samit and Dan Hernandez. Josh Greenbaum (Will & Harper, Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar) will direct.
Spaceballs 2 hits theaters in 2027.
UPDATE: Jun. 13, 2025, 9:19 a.m. EDT This article has been updated to reflect the announcement that Daphne Zuniga is also starring in "Spaceballs 2."

"As you can imagine it's a very emotional night," she says. "It's gonna be an amazing show, but you know, there's a lot happening internally for me, at least. I'm so grateful that I got a chance to do this. I am. I never thought that I would be able to host a late night show. This was never something that was on my vision board at all because I just didn't think that it was possible for me. I'm a touring standup and I feel very grateful to have that career, I really do, and this opportunity came along at a time in my life when I could take advantage of it, and while unfortunately I couldn't keep doing the show – it just wasn't sustainable for me – I can't believe that I got to do it as long as I did.
"It was my dream that I would finish off this season and get to hand it off to a new host. I really wanted CBS to replace me because I just think there are so many amazing comedians who would have done a great job with this show. And the reason I feel that way is, honestly I can't really express, how special this team of people is that I got to work with on this show."
After Midnight's time slot will now be replaced with episodes of Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen, per Deadline.
Tesla launches new Model S and X with minimal design changes, higher price tags
Tesla's updated Model S and Model X are here, but you have to look very closely to see the differences.
Tesla's own list of highlights for the new Model S and X starts with a new color option, Frost Blue, which tells you that this is just a retouch of the company's premium models.
Other highlights include:
quieter cabins, with less wind and road noise and more effective Active Noise Cancellation
new wheel designs with improved aerodynamics
improved front fascia camera with better visibility
dynamic ambient lighting, with "unique animations along the dash & doors upon entry"
improved suspension design for a smoother ride
adaptive driving beams
That's for both the Model S and the Model X, but there are a couple of specific improvements for each model, respectively.
The 21-inch Velarium wheels are a $4,500 option. Credit: TeslaFor the Model S:
The Model S Long Range now has up to 410 miles of range, making it the longest-range Tesla in the company's lineup
Model S Plaid has new exterior styling, which the company says is optimized for high-speed stability
For the Model X:
there's now more space for 3rd row occupants and for cargo
In terms of exterior styling, the cars are very similar to what they were before; the Frost Blue color, which is a $2,500 option for both the Model S and Model X, as well as new wheels, will make the biggest difference.
The wheel options now include the 20-inch Perihelix and the 22-inch Machina wheels for the Model X, and the 19-inch Magnetite, and the 21-inch Velarium wheels for the Model S.
The headlights are now adaptive. The new, 22-inch Machina are an optional, $5,500 upgrade. Credit: TeslaInside, the new, customizable ambient lighting is the thing that'll make the biggest difference, though that's merely catching up to the new Model 3 and Model Y, which got the ambient lighting as part of their most recent upgrade.
Woohoo, ambient lighting is here! Credit: TeslaAs for the Model X's improved third-row space, that could be a big deal for people who often haul more than five passengers, but Tesla didn't share any details and it's hard to judge the differences based on official photos alone.
SEE ALSO: Tesla’s Optimus humanoid robot program loses its headPotential customers won't like the fact that both the Model S and Model X now cost $5,000 more than before. The starting price for the Model S is now $84,990, while the Model X now starts at $89,990. That's for the All-Wheel Drive variants; if you want the Plaid versions, they start at $99,990, and $104,990, respectively.

Say More: Jai Courtney on Dangerous Animals and how his career led here
Summer's here, and to celebrate, we're diving into shark-infested horror!
This week on Say More, Mashable Entertainment Editor Kristy Puchko and Senior Creative Producer Mark Stetson welcomed Jai Courtney to the couch to talk Dangerous Animals.
The Australian actor has flexed his leading-man muscle in a series of blockbuster franchise action movies, from A Good Day to Die Hard to Divergent. But in Dangerous Animals, he takes a bite of a juicy character actor role, playing the villainous Tucker, a boat captain who takes on shark-cage dives, and sometimes feeds those tourists to the sharks for his own pleasure.
SEE ALSO: 'Dangerous Animals' review: Jai Courtney goes sublimely savage as a shark-centric serial killerAussie horror auteur Sean Byrne directs Dangerous Animals, making this freaky film a follow-up to such critically heralded offerings as the grisly The Loved Ones and the deliciously demonic The Devil's Candy.
On the Say More couch, Puchko and Courtney dug into what appealed to him about playing Tucker, how the role marks a shift in his career that began with Captain Boomerang in Suicide Squad, and how he made movie magic with an intense dance number in Dangerous Animals.
The captivating performer also muses on the path of his career, challenging the idea that such a thing is something an actor can really plan. Take a listen, and then plunge into the twisted pleasures of Dangerous Animals, which is now playing in theaters.

Nintendo Switch 2 restock tracker (June 13): Walmart has the console in stock, but theres a catch
Updated on Thursday, June 13 at 5 a.m. ET — We have good news and bad news. The good news? Walmart has both the Nintendo Switch 2 and the Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle in stock. The bad news? It looks like the consoles are being sold by third-party sellers — and with jacked-up prices. The bundle normally retails at Walmart for $499, but it's currently listed for sale from sellers like "GAMES FOR US" for $749.
Here at Mashable, we do not recommend feeding trolls or price gougers, but Switch 2 restocks have been so rare, we wanted to provide this update. Unfortunately, it looks like price gougers have officially come for the Switch 2, and not just on eBay.

The Nintendo Switch 2 launch day has come and gone, and those lucky enough to get a console are already happily playing Mario Kart World and other launch titles.
Starting on June 5, gamers could finally purchase the Switch 2 console for $449.99 and the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle for $499.99 — if you could find it in stock. Costco had inventory available on June 5, and Target started selling its inventory online on June 6, but as of this writing, it's out of stock. GameStop and Staples at least have tools that let you check available stock at nearby stores. Walmart does have inventory available, but only from third-party resellers, not an official Switch 2 restock.
Opens in a new window Credit: Nintendo Buy the Switch 2 console at Walmart Check prices at Walmart Shop NowSo, where can you buy the Switch 2 online? Check for Switch 2 restocks at the My Nintendo Store and via Nintendo online retailers. When all else fails, you can smash that refresh button like it's your first time playing Super Smash Bros.
Buy the Switch 2 at Walmart — Third-party sellers
Buy the Switch 2 at GameStop — Check stock in stores
Buy the Switch 2 at Best Buy — Check stock in stores
But the Switch 2 at Costco — Unavailable
Buy the Switch 2 at Target — Unavailable
Staples — Check stock in stores
To avoid hoarding and reselling, Nintendo and retailers are limiting orders per person. That means you'll need to make an account to successfully place an order. We also recommend reviewing our tips for tracking restocks, and in the meantime, try all the links below.
Place an order with NintendoYou can't simply go to the My Nintendo Store and buy the Switch 2. To order the Switch 2, you need to log in with an active, paid Nintendo Switch Online account. Once you do that, you can choose either a Switch 2 standalone console or the Mario Kart World bundle and then hit the confirm button to "register your interest" in ordering a Switch 2.
Now for the weird stuff. Only Switch Online members who have paid for at least 12 months of service and registered at least 50 hours of gameplay on their Switch consoles can purchase through Nintendo. In other words, you better be a true Switch gamer if you want to buy the Switch 2 this way. If you're eligible and follow these steps, watch your email for an invitation link.
Buy the Switch 2 at Nintendo: Nintendo Switch 2 console $449.99 Learn More Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle $499 Learn More How to order Switch 2 at WalmartUnlike Nintendo, purchasing the Switch 2 online at Walmart is pretty simple. Technically, Walmart shoppers have been able to preorder Switch 2 consoles on Walmart's website since midnight ET on April 24. In reality, the console has been sold out consistently. Our advice? Go to the Walmart Switch 2 listing a few times a day and smash that refresh button, but be wary of price gougers.
We'll update this article as soon as we find Switch 2 consoles in stock at Walmart (or anywhere). Walmart also sells a lot of Switch 2 launch titles and accessories.
Buy the Switch 2 at Walmart: Nintendo Switch 2 console $449 Shop Now Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle $499.99 Shop Now How to buy Switch 2 at TargetTarget stores opened as usual on launch day, and according to a press release, Switch 2 hopefuls were directed to a "designated queuing location" near the entrance. Target workers reportedly gave out reservation tickets to a lucky few. Buyers were whisked off to the electronics department, where they could finally purchase either the Switch 2 or a Switch 2 bundle.
Buy the Switch 2 at Target: Nintendo Switch 2 console $449.99 Shop Now Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle $499.99 Shop Now How to buy Switch 2 at GameStopGameStop is the one retailer of the four listed here that's doing things a little bit differently. If you were lucky enough to get a GameStop preorder, you could pick up your console at midnight on June 5. GameStop stores also hosted midnight launch events (though supplies were limited), and gamers can go to GameStop locations to participate in a "Transfer and Trade," where they trade in their original Switch and transfer data to the new console.
You can also try your luck online or sign up to get updates when new inventory becomes available. You can also buy Switch 2 games and accessories at GameStop, including those all-important MicroSD Express cards.
Buy the Switch 2 at GameStop: Nintendo Switch 2 console $449.99 Shop Now Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle $499.99 Shop Now How to buy Switch 2 consoles at Best BuyBest Buy joined GameStop in hosting Switch 2 midnight launch parties, but the tents and lawn chairs have been packed away by now. If you weren't one of the chosen ones who got a console at these events, you'll have to rely on the Best Buy website. So far, we haven't seen any inventory available, unfortunately.
As a “high-demand item,” Best Buy customers have to follow specific steps to buy a Switch 2 online:
Create a My Best Buy account and sign in
Confirm your location
Add the item to your cart
Follow the on-screen prompts and check for available inventory
If you get a Switch 2 console in your cart, you’ll have 10 minutes to complete the purchase
You'll notice there's one major retailer conspicuously missing so far — Amazon. That's because Amazon is not an official Nintendo retailer, so any Switch 2 consoles you find there are likely listed by resellers of dubious legitimacy. However, Amazon shoppers can preorder some Switch 2 titles ahead of the launch.

Shop Now How to buy the Switch 2 at Staples
As we noted in our Switch 2 preorder guide, select Staples stores will sell the Switch 2 on a first-come, first-served basis starting June 5. Most Staples locations open at 8 a.m., but we recommend showing up bright and early. Staples will also be selling an unnamed Switch 2 game bundle, and we know it's not the standard Mario Kart World bundle. As with other retailers, Switch 2 consoles are currently listed as "Out of stock" at the Staples online store.

Are you a Costco member? Then you may be able to secure your Switch 2 at the mega-retailer, which has been one of the few retailers with actual inventory available on June 5. Costco members can purchase the Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle online starting June 5, though there's a limit of one console per membership (every seven days). As of this writing, the console and Mario Kart bundle are both sold out.
Opens in a new window Credit: Costco Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle $499.99 at CostcoLearn More Why is the Switch 2 so hard to find in stock?
Simply put, it's a matter of demand far outpacing supply, though tariffs definitely didn't help.
Since opening for preorder on April 24, the Switch 2 has been sold out pretty much everywhere, like the PS5 before it. In fact, so many gamers tried to place preorders on April 24 that they immediately crashed the GameStop, Target, and Walmart websites. That's left many Switch fans wondering how to buy the Switch 2 online. So, if you aren't buying a Switch 2 in person, keep checking this page for the latest stock updates on Switch 2 launch day and beyond.

Mashable reporter Alex Perry was lucky enough to play the Switch 2 at two Nintendo pre-launch events, and as of this writing, he's hard at work testing his Switch 2 review unit. We've published his day one review, and check back for a full review next week. To sum up his thoughts, while there are a couple of annoying setup quirks, the new console is a big step forward and just as much fun as you'd hoped. You can also read all about the Switch 2 launch titles we're most excited to play.
"I think it’s awesome," Perry wrote in his Switch 2 early review. "Most of the games I’ve played have been impressive in one way or another, and the hardware is a clear improvement over the first Switch. It’s not perfect, but nothing is."
