Live Translation with AirPods won't come to EU-based Apple users

Europe, the bloc with 24 official languages and 287 spoken in total, won't get Apple's Live Translation with AirPods feature for now. "Live Translation with AirPods is not available if you are in the EU and your Apple Account Country or Region is also in the EU," the company said on its iOS feature availability page. No reason was given, but it may have to do with the EU's strict rules around artificial intelligence and how it impacts privacy. If that's the case, Apple may be waiting for the EU

Here’s your first look at Gemini’s dedicated space for all creations (APK teardown)

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google is testing a new space in the Gemini app to store all media generated with it. The “Created by you” section stores all Gemini-generated images, videos, and even deep research documents and code. ChatGPT has a similar feature, called Library, which makes it easier to find media created by it rather than sifting through chat history. Image generation has long been one of the most compelling and entertaining use cases for AI. The widespread Studio

Poll: Who’s got the best color options, iPhone 17 or Pixel 10?

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority For as nice as it can be to feel safe and sound by wrapping your expensive new smartphone tightly in a protective case, there’s also a lot to be said for living a little dangerously and showing off the actual hardware — especially when it’s available in some really appealing colors. That’s just we got this year from the Pixel 10 series, as Google updated its lineup with arguably some of the best Pixel color options in years. Don’t want to miss the best from A

DeepCodeBench: Real-World Codebase Understanding by Q&A Benchmarking

At Qodo, we’ve created a new benchmark dataset of real-world questions derived from large, complex code repositories. We are excited to release the dataset, methodology, and prompts used in its creation to support further research and development. Motivation Enterprises often maintain massive codebases that are difficult for any individual developer to navigate and fully understand. Whether onboarding, doing routine development, or using AI-assisted workflows, teams often have questions about

Crispr Offers New Hope for Treating Diabetes

Crispr gene-editing technology has demonstrated its revolutionary potential in recent years: It has been used to treat rare diseases, to adapt crops to withstand the extremes of climate change, or even to change the color of a spider’s web. But the greatest hope is that this technology will help find a cure for a global disease, such as diabetes. A new study points in that direction. For the first time, researchers succeeded in implanting Crispr-edited pancreatic cells in a man with type 1 diab

Samsung’s Galaxy Ultra phones could be stuck with the same telephoto camera until 2027

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR According to Ice Universe, Samsung plans to use the same 50MP telephoto sensor on the Galaxy S6 Ultra and S27 Ultra as the one it introduced on the S24 Ultra. The tipster previously claimed that the Galaxy S26 Ultra may actually downgrade the 3x shooter to a smaller sensor. If true, the move would echo Samsung’s decision to stick with its 200MP ISOCELL HP2 main sensor and Sony’s IMX754 3x sensor across multiple generations. Samsung’s Ultra flagships are

A polyglot's guide to multiple-dispatch (2016)

This is the first article in a series dedicated to multiple dispatch - an advanced abstraction technique available to programmers out-of-the-box in some languages, and implementable in others. This first post in the series presents the technique and explains the problem it intends to solve. It uses C++ as the presentation language because C++ does not support multiple dispatch directly, but can be used to implement it in various ways.

DOOMscrolling: The Game

We’re all familiar with doomscrolling, spending too much time scrolling endless feeds of content that make you feel bad about everything. But sometimes when I hear the word “doomscrolling” it makes me think of two other things: the classic video game Doom and, well, scrolling. That got me wondering if I could make a Doom-inspired game in a web browser where the only thing you do to play is scroll. No moving your character laterally, no jumping. Just scrolling. So I made it. And it’s fun! Here

Trump is slowing — but not stopping — US greenhouse gas reductions

is a senior science reporter covering energy and the environment with more than a decade of experience. She is also the host of Hell or High Water: When Disaster Hits Home , a podcast from Vox Media and Audible Originals. President Donald Trump has cast his shadow over the latest forecast on US greenhouse gas emissions. Reductions in planet-heating pollution are already expected to slow over the next decade, setting the US and the world back in efforts to stop climate change. Here’s what could

Reddit, Yahoo, Medium and more are adopting a new licensing standard to get compensated for AI scraping

With web publishers in crisis, a new open standard lets them set the ground rules for AI scrapers. (Or, at least it will try.) The new Really Simple Licensing (RSL) standard creates terms that participants expect AI companies to abide by. Although enforcement is an open question, it can't hurt that some heavy hitters back it. Among others, the list includes Reddit, Yahoo (Engadget's parent company), Medium and People Inc. RSL adds licensing terms to the robots.txt protocol, the simple file that

A closer look at the AirPods Pro 3: ANC, Live Translation and heart-rate tracking

The AirPods Pro 3 are a big upgrade over the AirPods Pro 2. Even though Apple has continuously added new features to those earbuds over the last three years, it hasn’t changed the design or shape of the earbuds since the first model arrived in 2019. With the AirPods Pro 3, you might not notice those tweaks until you remove the new ear tips, and the most impactful upgrades are all on the inside. After my brief hands-on immediately following the iPhone 17 launch yesterday, I’ve since spent more ti

Sony is rolling out a PlayStation parental controls mobile app

Sony is finally catching up to something Nintendo and Microsoft have had for years. The new PlayStation Family app mainly serves as a mobile extension of on-console parental controls. However, parents also get a few extra perks in the mobile version. The app includes a "thoughtfully guided" onboarding process. (I imagine many people will prefer their phone or tablet over the console for that.) Once things are set up, parents can do everything they already could on the console. This includes set

Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Frankenstein’ Was Made with Trust and Collaboration

Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein was featured at the Toronto International Film Festival, leading to plenty of interviews from the director and leading men Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi. In a recent discussion with the Ankler, the trio talked about the film’s production, which included more talk about Elordi’s creature performance. Del Toro has previously talked about Elordi’s “staggeringly beautiful” rendition of the monster, which came from months of studying child development stages, Mary Sh

Anthropic reports outages, Claude and Console impacted

Anthropic reported a service outage impacting APIs, Console, and Claude earlier this afternoon. Users on GitHub and Hacker News noted issues with Claude at around 12:20 ET, with Anthropic releasing a status update eight minutes later, noting that its APIs, Console, and Claude AI were down. At press time, the company said it had implemented several fixes and was monitoring the results. “We’re aware of a very brief outage of our API today shortly before 9:30am PT,” an Anthropic spokesperson told

I didn't bring my son to a museum to look at screens

When I was a kid in the ’80s, one of my two favorite places on Earth was The Franklin Institute (TFI) in downtown Philadelphia. We lived a couple hours away so a visit was a rare and precious thing. I think I only visited two or three times but it left an indelible impression on me. I remember wandering in amazement through its enormous spaces getting to actually play with amazing and interesting things. I remember sweeping off a table and then filling an overhanging funnel pendulum with sand, s

Amazon wants to build the Echo of AR glasses

TL;DR Amazon is supposedly working on two pairs of AR glasses. A larger, monochrome model could assist its delivery drivers and may debut in the first half of next year. The more compact, color-screen consumer glasses might not arrive until 2027. Amazon’s track record with tech hardware is a bit mixed, to put it lightly. We’ve seen some epic failures over the years, like the disaster that was the Fire Phone, and while its Echo smart speakers have been market leaders, it’s still very unclear i

Evernote and WeTransfer owner Bending Spoons is set to buy Vimeo for $1.38 billion

Vimeo is set to get a new owner. Bending Spoons — the parent of Evernote, WeTransfer, Meetup and fellow video streaming platform Brightcove — plans to take the company into private ownership in an all-cash, $1.38 billion deal. Stockholders will receive $7.85 per share, quite a bit more than the $4.82 Vimeo closed at on Tuesday (the price jumped significantly after the announcement, of course). Vimeo's directors unanimously approved the takeover. The acquisition is expected to close by the end o

‘Wicked: For Good’ Director Jon M. Chu Promises New Songs Will Hit All the Right Notes

As anticipation builds for Wicked: For Good, the second act to 2024’s Oscar-winning Wicked, director Jon M. Chu has revealed in a new interview with Entertainment Weekly that the upcoming film will feature not one, but two new bespoke songs—that’s one tune for each witch. While Chu didn’t announce the songs’ titles, the outlet teased that the new tracks by composer Stephen Schwartz are no “mere bids for a Best Original Song nomination.” In fact, Chu says the new songs are deeply needed addition

How the 2025 Apple Watch models compare to previous versions

Apple announced the new Apple Watch Series 11, SE 3, and Ultra 3 smartwatches during its annual iPhone hardware event on Tuesday. The 2025 models are somewhat iterative in terms of their designs. However, there are plenty of new features present in each that could make either one a worthy upgrade over previous generations, depending on h

The subjective experience of coding in different programming languages (2023)

Different programming languages feel viscerally different, right? I can’t be the only one. It’s so embodied. When I’m deep in multiple nested parentheses in a C-like language, even Python, I feel precarious, like I’m walking a high wire or balancing things in my hands and picking my way down steep stairs. It’s a relief to close the braces. Like if I’m trying to cover all the conditions in a complicated state machine or a conditional, I’m high up. I often hold my breath. Functional languages a

Apple's New Hypertension Notifications: Everything to Know About the High Blood Pressure Alerts

After years of waiting, Apple announced at its "awe dropping" event that the Watch Series 11 will have Hypertension Notifications. This joins similar, alert-based Apple Watch health features including notifications for noise, sleep apnea and heart health. The groundbreaking new Hypertension Notifications feature is designed to alert users if signs of hypertension (or chronic high blood pressure) are detected. But how exactly does the feature work, and when will it be available? This is everythi

Vimeo to be acquired by Bending Spoons in $1.38B all-cash deal

Video platform Vimeo announced on Wednesday that it has agreed to be acquired by Bending Spoons, one of Europe’s largest mobile app developers, in an all-cash deal valued at approximately $1.38 billion. The deal is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. Vimeo will be delisted from exchanges once the deal closes. The announcement comes as Bending Spoons was interested in a potential takeover of Vimeo as far back as Marc

Amazon's Zoox jumps into U.S. robotaxi race with Las Vegas launch

In this article AMZN Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT Five years after its splashy $1.3 billion acquisition of Zoox, Amazon has officially entered the U.S. robotaxi race, which to date has been dominated by Alphabet's Waymo.
