Perplexity's definition of copyright gets it sued by the dictionary

Merriam-Webster and its parent company Encyclopedia Britannica are the latest to take on AI in court. The plaintiffs have sued Perplexity, claiming that AI company's "answer engine" product unlawfully copies their copyrighted materials. They are also alleging copyright infringement for instances where Perplexity's AI creates false or inaccurate hallucinations that it then wrongly attributes to Britannica or Merriam-Webster. The complaint , filed in New York federal court, is seeking unspecified

Don’t just buy a Pixelsnap Charger without thinking about your USB ports

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Some new Pixel 10 owners are running into trouble with Google’s Pixelsnap Charger due to insufficient power input. When buying a charger, make sure that the device you want to power it with is capable of meeting its listed needs. Google requires 35W of input to use the Pixelsnap Charger at full 25W output. Charging phones is finally exciting again! Well, maybe “exciting” is overselling it — and not so much “again,” we guess — but charging is absolutel

Android Auto is now fixed on the Pixel 10 — unless it isn’t

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Last month, some new Pixel 10 series owners reported issues when trying to connect their phones to Android Auto. Google quickly confirmed the problem, and this week reports that a fix is available to those running Android Auto 15. Despite that news, quite a few Pixel 10 owners share that their problems with Android Auto have yet to resolve. If you haven’t given it a shot yet, you really owe it to yourself to discover what Android Auto can do to transform

IDC’s report on worldwide “wrist-worn” devices for the second quarter of 2025 is out, and it shows mixed results for the Apple Watch. Here is the breakdown. Xiaomi leads in growth, while Samsung lags behind During the second quarter last year, IDC determined that Apple had shipped 5.7 million Apple Watch units, falling closely behind Xiaomi’s 5.9 million shipped units and further behind Huawei’s 8.9 million.

Jason Hiner/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. Apple's iPhone 17 lineup brings some of the biggest design changes the smartphone series has seen in years, and no two models better highlight this shift than the iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro Max.

How China’s Propaganda and Surveillance Systems Really Operate

A trove of internal documents leaked from a little-known Chinese company has pulled back the curtain on how digital censorship tools are being marketed and exported globally. Geedge Networks sells what amounts to a commercialized “Great Firewall” to at least four countries, including Kazakhstan, Pakistan, Ethiopia, and Myanmar. The groundbreaking leak shows in granular detail the capabilities this company has to monitor, intercept, and hack internet traffic. Researchers who examined the files de

Adjacency Matrix and std:mdspan, C++23

In graph theory, an adjacency matrix is a square matrix used to represent a finite (and usually dense) graph. The elements of the matrix indicate whether pairs of vertices are adjacent or not, and in weighted graphs, they store the edge weights. In many beginner-level tutorials, adjacency matrices are implemented using vector of vectors (nested dynamic arrays), but this approach has inefficiencies due to multiple memory allocations. C++23 introduces std::mdspan , which provides a more efficient

Top model scores may be skewed by Git history leaks in SWE-bench

NASA found clues of life on Mars, but budget cuts threaten future missions

An exciting discovery on Mars is being overshadowed by turmoil at NASA, with budget cuts threatening to destroy a scientific legacy that has been built over decades. Yesterday, the agency shared a finding, published in Nature, of potential biosignatures identified by the Mars Perseverance rover in a 3.5 billion-year-old rock. “This very well could be the clearest sign of life that we’ve ever found on Mars,” said Transportation Secretary and Acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy in a press confe

Google Pixel 10 Pro XL looks like one of the most repairable phones of 2025 in teardown video

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR YouTuber JerryRigEverything has conducted a teardown of the Pixel 10 Pro XL. The teardown reveals just how easy it would be to repair the flagship phone. Google made the battery and display especially easy to remove. As other brands continue to make their smartphones increasingly difficult to repair, it appears Google has gone the opposite direction with the Pixel 10. The Pixel 10 Pro XL has now been fully disassembled in a new teardown video. This vi

Native ACME support comes to Nginx

NGINX and Let's Encrypt share a common vision of an open and secure web. Now, with built-in support for ACME, the world's most popular web server, reverse proxy and ingress controller for Kubernetes can simplify certificate management for everyone. From the home lab to scaled-out, mission-critical enterprise deployments. Our ideal has always been that server software could get and renew Let’s Encrypt certificates automatically, with minimal human intervention. Over time, more and more web serv

The iPhone 17 Pros Are Going to Crush Flagship Android Phones on Performance

Apple fans who normally gravitate to the Pro-level iPhones need to rethink their buying habits. The upcoming $1,100 iPhone 17 Pro isn’t better than the regular 17 for any obvious reason you can glean from staring at the pleasing orange surface. You have to look below the aluminum and beyond the giant camera bump to see what’s really going on. The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max are finally stepping out of the amateur league and are going “pro,” as their names suggest. The regular iPhone 17 sounds lik

AI Regulation Moratorium Idea Isn't Dead as Ted Cruz Pushes Sandbox Act

US Sen. Ted Cruz has introduced a bill, the Sandbox Act, aimed at giving companies developing AI technologies a way to bypass regulations by requesting a government waiver. According to the bill, the act would "establish a Federal regulatory sandbox program for artificial intelligence, and for other purposes." In introducing the bill, Cruz said it would allow AI tech to be unhindered by "outdated or inflexible federal rules." In addition to establishing a program for this, the bill, if passed,
