iOS 26 is here: Find out if your iPhone is eligible for the free update

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-01 03:44:04

We've been talking about it for months and now it's finally here. You can officially download iOS 26 on your phone — iPadOS 26 is also available, as well as Apple's other operating system updates — assuming you have an eligible device. If your device is compatible with the latest OS, you'll notice substantial changes when you install the new update. You may have already heard about "Liquid Glass," which (intentional or not) is sort of like Apple's take on the old Windows Vista design language.

Language models pack billions of concepts into 12k dimensions

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-30 13:54:20

In a recent 3Blue1Brown video series on transformer models, Grant Sanderson posed a fascinating question: How can a relatively modest embedding space of 12,288 dimensions (GPT-3) accommodate millions of distinct real-world concepts? The answer lies at the intersection of high-dimensional geometry and a remarkable mathematical result known as the Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma. While exploring this question, I discovered something unexpected that led to an interesting collaboration with Grant and a

Liquid Glass on iOS 26 Is Here to Stay, Whether You Like It or Not

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-10-01 03:18:33

The old debate of form over function remains true with iOS 26 and the final version that launched for all iPhones today. There’s all but a faint whiff of that long-promised Apple Intelligence, though you’ll still find plenty to love and more to complain about with the switch from iOS 18 all the way to the “26” generation. Remember to set aside some storage on iPhone, as the update will demand a good chunk. iOS 26 showed up as 6GB for me on my iPhone 14 Pro, coming from version iOS 18.6. (Apple

Fixing Hallucinations Would Destroy ChatGPT, Expert Finds

In a paper published earlier this month, OpenAI researchers said they'd found the reason why even the most powerful AI models still suffer from rampant "hallucinations," in which products like ChatGPT confidently make assertions that are factually false. They found that the way we evaluate the output of large language models, like the ones driving ChatGPT, means they're "optimized to be good test-takers" and that "guessing when uncertain improves test performance."

How does air pollution impact your brain?

Image credit: Ionut Stefan We’ve known for some time that air pollution is bad for human health. However, the focus was mostly on the lungs, and to some extent, the heart. After all, airborne pollutants are inhaled through the lungs and can reach the heart through the bloodstream, so it’s not surprising these take the brunt of the damage. But somewhere along the way, it became somewhat mainstream to consider how air pollution might affects brains too. What I found surprising was the recency of
