Weaving reality or warping it? The personalization trap in AI systems

Subscribe Now AI represents the greatest cognitive offloading in the history of humanity. We once offloaded memory to writing, arithmetic to calculators and navigation to GPS. Now we are beginning to offload judgment, synthesis and even meaning-making to systems that speak our language, learn our habits and tailor our truths. AI systems are growing incr

This is why I use two separate ChatGPT accounts

Calvin Wankhede / Android Authority I’ll admit it: I’m a bit of a recovering AI addict. While I’ve had mixed feelings about AI from the start, as someone who spends a lot of time lost in thought, I’ve found it can be a useful tool for ideation, proofreading, entertainment, and much more. Recently, I’ve started scaling back my usage for reasons beyond the scope of this article, but for a while, I actually had two paid ChatGPT accounts. I know what you’re thinking, and you’re right, it’s a bit e

This Is the Commodore Comeback Fans Have Waited for—but the Odds Are Still Against It

In 1994, Commodore crashed and burned. Once a home computing giant across the US and Europe, the company was undone by mismanagement and misfires. The carcass was picked clean and the pieces resold so many times that it was hard to keep track, but with each new owner came the inevitable—an attempt to make a fast buck by slapping the famous C= logo on any old junk. Fans watched in horror as the brand appeared on the mediocre Web.it all-in-one PC, the bizarrely named Gravel in Pocket media player

‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Isn’t Done With the Gorn Yet

The third season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds finally started this week, and its opener, “Hegemony, Part II,” picked up right where the last season left off. But along the way, it surprisingly ended up taking the Gorn—a Trek mainstay and the show’s longest-running threat—off the board. In the episode itself, the Enterprise crew stop Captain Batel from Gorn infection, prevent their invasion of the Federation, and rescue their crew members captured by the Gorn at the end of last season. You’d

Gear News of the Week: Chrome OS Will Merge With Android and Sony Surprises With a New Camera

It's been speculated on. It's been rumored. It's been hoped for. And according to an interview with TechRadar, it's happening. Android ecosystem president Sameer Samat says Google plans to combine Chrome OS and Android “into a single platform.” Google has kept its phone and tablet operating systems distinct from its laptop platform. There has been plenty of crossover over the years—the biggest being the introduction of Android apps to Chromebooks back in 2016—but they have always coexisted. Wit

Silo season 3 is coming: Here’s everything we know right now

Apple’s biggest hit ever, Severance, is far from the only sci-fi success in the Apple TV+ catalog. The dystopian thriller Silo aired its second season last fall, and season 3 is well under way. Here’s everything we know so far about Silo season 3. Season 3 expands the story outside the silos Silo season 2 ended on a bit of a cliffhanger. While the series to this point has been set almost exclusively inside underground silos, the season 2 finale shook things up. Creator and showrunner Graham

The investor behind Opendoor's 190% run nearly shut down his fund

In this article OPEN Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Courtesy: Opendoor On June 6, online real estate service Opendoor was so desperate to get its beaten-down stock price back over $1 and stay listed on the Nasdaq that management proposed a reverse split, potentially lifting the price of each share by as much as 50 times. The stock inched its way up over the next five weeks. Then Eric Jackson started cheerleading. Jackson, a hedge fund manager who was bullish on Opendoor years

Influencers Have Arrived on ‘Foundation,’ and Somehow You Can’t Hate Them

Foundation is generally a pretty serious show. Season three in particular is charting humanity’s march toward certain doom—unless those with the power to reshape the future can figure out an alternative path before it’s too late. But levity creeps into the Apple TV+ Isaac Asimov adaptation when you least expect it, with season three continuing the humorous legacy of a character we said good-bye to back in season two. That dearly departed character is Hober Mallow, of course—the heroic scoundrel

‘Crystal Lake’ Casts a Familiar Horror Face as Little Jason Voorhees

Horror fans are excitedly awaiting Peacock’s Friday the 13th prequel series Crystal Lake—and now we know who’ll be playing the younger version of Jason Voorhees. Long before he decided a hockey mask and machete were an ideal killing-spree combo, and even before he drowned at summer camp, he was just a little kid with an eccentric mother. Presumably. We don’t know too many details about the show yet, but we know Linda Cardellini is playing Pamela Voorhees—and now we know Callum Vinson is Jason.

The New ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ Betrays Itself From the Very Start

If you make an I Know What You Did Last Summer movie, one thing has to work above all else. Whatever the characters “did last summer” has to be bad enough for someone to plausibly return a year later and try to kill them. It’s one of the things the 1997 original gets right. A group of (mostly) drunk friends drive on a dark road, run into a person, and then, while he may or may not be still alive, throw his body into the ocean. Yeah, if I was hit by a bunch of drunk kids and left for dead, I’d fe

The Morning After: The next Google Pixel event kicks off on August 20

What can you expect from Google’s Made By Pixel event? Well, according to the media invite we got (brag), it’s promising new Pixel phones, watches, buds and more. Last year, that was true. The same event gave us the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Pixel Watch 3 and Pixel Buds Pro 2. I think that was everything? As for that “and more” part, recent rumors suggest Google is working on Pixelsnap, a proper response to Apple’s MagSafe tech. Android phones have been slow to ad

Nintendo Switch 2 account bans continue: warning after buying old copy of Bayo 3

A Switch 2 owner has had their console “restricted by Nintendo” after installing a Switch game they bought on the used market. Quinn Nelson, the creator behind popular YouTube channel Snazzy Labs, fell foul to the long arm of Nintendo law, and now assumes the “old copy of Bayo 3 on eBay” they bought must have been dumped/ripped by its previous owner and got flagged by big N’s anti-piracy servers. PSA: be EXTREMELY careful buying used Nintendo Switch games. Bought an old copy of Bayo 3 on eBay a

Best Tower Fans for 2025: We Tested What Cools Down Rooms Fast

Why I like it: In ultrahigh-end tower fans, Dyson is awfully tough to beat. Its latest, the Dyson TP07, is a behemoth with king-size activated carbon and glass HEPA air filters hugging the base intake. That allows it to purify the air it puts out, removing things like dust and allergens from the air you breathe. Dyson claims it can catch particles as small as 0.3 microns wide. You don't have to spend that much on every air purifier but if you want a combo option this is the elite choice. The D

Amazon Renews ‘Invincible’ for Season 5 While You’re Still Waiting for Season 4

Today, Prime Video announced that Invincible has been renewed for a fifth season, giving fans even more reason to stay alive long enough to not only witness its already confirmed fourth season, with the promise that more of co-creator Robert Kirkman’s cult-classic Image Comics series is in the chamber, ready to be unloaded onto the streamer. The news that Invincible has been renewed for a fifth season shouldn’t come as a surprise to fans. During the Season 3 press tour, Robert Kirkman boldly de

TikTok's latest feature will help songwriters show off their work

TikTok has proven to be a powerful platform to help tunes go viral and now the company is making it easier for songwriters to benefit from that reach. The social media site has rolled out a pair of new features in beta: a Songwriter label that identifies users as such under their profile, and a Songwriter Music Tab that lets them spotlight tracks they've written or co-written.

Dyson’s $500 headphones come in even more colors

Dyson is expanding the range of ear caps and cushions it offers for its customizable OnTrac headphones, with two new colors launching today for each. That doesn’t change the four default designs you’re able to pick from when buying the $499.99 OnTracs, but it does give existing owners new options to mix up the design. The cushions now come in “Sky Blue,” which was already available for ear caps, and “Caramel,” which is entirely new. Meanwhile, the caps are now available in “Ceramic Oyster Pink,

Sony is still stubborn about the size of its cameras

is a reviewer covering laptops and the occasional gadget. He spent over 15 years in the photography industry before joining The Verge as a deals writer in 2021. Sony’s new RX1R III camera looks awesome. Hardcore photo enthusiasts have wanted an updated version of its full-frame compact camera, the RX1, for nearly a decade. I’m not surprised it costs a whopping $5,100 (cameras and lenses have been trending more expensive), but what I do find surprising, and quite egregious, is that the RX1R III
