Humanoids, robots built to resemble us and perform daily tasks, were famous for their clumsiness just a few years ago. Senior writer Will Knight tells us about how that's rapidly changing on today's episode cohosted by Michael Calore and senior correspondent Kylie Robison.

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google Play Store is rolling out an AI-powered app explorer in the US. It suggests categories like “Boost productivity” or “Protect my privacy” directly in the search tab. Selecting one opens an “Organized with AI” section grouping related apps by type.

History of the Gem Desktop Environment

Sometime in 1988, the keyboard of my Sinclair ZX Spectrum 48K was finally broken beyond repair, and I asked my parents for a 128K version of the same computer. Instead, they surprised me with an Atari 520 ST. It was my first real-world experience with a graphical desktop environment, complete with windows, icons, and a mouse. The ST was an amazing machine, not only compared to my poor old “Speccy” and similar cheap home computers, but even to the IBM PC compatibles in my school’s comp-sci lab,

Google pokes a banana-shaped hole in Musk’s claims of Apple’s bias towards OpenAI

Al Gore on China’s climate rise: ‘I would not have seen this coming’

Twenty-five years ago, Al Gore was in the final stretch of his U.S. presidential campaign, just weeks away from an election that would ultimately slip through his fingers despite winning the popular vote.
