Elon Musk is set to host the May 8 edition of “Saturday Night Live,” with musical guest Miley Cyrus.

Musk is among just a select group who have been asked to host the iconic NBC late-night institution.

The news comes on the heels of Musk’s SpaceX travel venture launching its second operational flight of its Dragon spacecraft.

His stewardship of Tesla has drawn major criticism, yet he remains one of the most visible CEOs and tech entrepreneurs-impresarios of the moment.

According to Forbes, he is worth a cool $177 billion.

Musk is one of the most talked-about business leaders of our time, with his bold moves in the electric car arena with Tesla.

The episode will mark Cyrus’ sixth visit to “SNL” as musical guest. Her most recent album, “Plastic Hearts,” debuted last year.

Apple is developing an AI-powered wearable device, aiming for a launch of 20 million units in the growing AI market.

Apple is reportedly developing an AI-powered wearable device equipped with cameras and speakers, signalling its next major move into artificial intelligence-driven hardware.

While still in early development, the company is said to be planning a launch scale of up to 20 million units.

This move places Apple squarely into the fast-growing AI wearable market, where tech giants are racing to define what hands-free, AI-first devices will look like. Rather than rushing to market, Apple appears to be taking a measured approach by embedding AI capabilities into its existing ecosystem.

Reports suggest Apple is also experimenting with camera-equipped AirPods and smart glasses, with a potential launch timeline around 2027. If successful, these devices could reshape how users interact with AI in everyday life.
