The current AI boom is often described as a wave of innovation—new models, new tools, new startups, and a steady stream of demos that make it feel like the future is arriving on schedule. But if you look past the…
arXiv has long been a place where researchers share ideas quickly, often before peer review catches up. But speed has always come with a trade-off: the platform’s role in maintaining scientific integrity is different from that of traditional journals. Now,…
Sony is trying to get ahead of a growing backlash over how its “AI Camera Assistant” works on the Xperia 1 XIII, after a promotional post that was meant to show off the feature instead sparked mockery. The criticism wasn’t…
OpenAI’s internal product shakeup is reportedly underway, and if the latest reporting is accurate, it could reshape how the company thinks about “chat” versus “code” in a way that matters to both everyday users and professional developers. Multiple signals point…
