Summary | Chatbots are taking over the world. On Facebook Messenger for instance, you can ask a shopping concierge bot what you want to buy. The bot will then tailor options to your price range. This is what the future looks like: robot customer service agents. They will kill the customer service industry that we know. However, those bots will lack a human touch.

Summary | A US study has conducted a large survey among teenagers and found out that smartphones are impacting their lives significantly. They sleep less, go out less, date less, are less likely to get (someone) pregnant, feel left out more, have more mental health issues, etc. Especially girls are more likely to feel left out because they spend more time on social media and because girls tend to bully each other by ostracization which is very easily achievable in cyberspace. Also, the teenage suicide rate has surpassed the teenage homicide rate for the first time in history.
