    The Nintendo Switch 2 has apparently been jailbroken, and a modder has already shown the console running a custom version of Mario Kart World featuring new playable characters like Cinnamoroll, the red Angry Bird, Peter Griffin, and Steve from Minecraft. OpenAI's Codex helped make this "ns2jb" jailbreak, according to Sammy Hajhamid, aka "pepsipu."
