techspot.com Skye Jacobs 2026-02-22 15:17:00

Denmark has proposed sweeping legislation to curb the rise of AI-generated deepfakes, positioning itself as a leader in European digital rights protection. The suggested amendment to Danish copyright law would grant individuals explicit ownership of their image, voice, and facial features – empowering them to demand the removal of unauthorized digital copies from online platforms.

Android 16 will alert users to possible Stingray surveillance, fake cell towers

techspot.com Skye Jacobs 2026-02-22 17:37:00

Why it matters: As Android 16's new security features roll out with the next generation of smartphones, users will, for the first time, have a tool to detect invisible digital surveillance. Whether this prompts broader reforms in how such technology is used and regulated remains to be seen. Still, the feature reflects a growing awareness of the need to protect personal privacy in the mobile age.

If you’ve scrolled through TikTok or Instagram, you’ve probably seen fitness challenges based on your biological age. In some cases, it’s funny to see people attempting feats that seem impossible for their age or impressive that they can do them. You’ve probably felt inspired to try out some of these challenges and even questioned their legitimacy. “Most of these challenges, like completing 11 consecutive push-ups (for women), doing pull-ups or performing a kneeling-to-squat jump, are quick scr

At 20 years old, Reddit is defending its data and fighting AI with AI

cnbc.com Jonathan Vanian 2026-02-22 16:00:01

Reddit CEO Steve Huffman stands on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) after ringing a bell on the floor setting the share price at $47 in its initial public offering (IPO) on March 21, 2024 in New York City. For 20 years, Reddit has pitched itself as "the front page of the internet." AI threatens to change that.

People Are Being Involuntarily Committed, Jailed After Spiraling Into "ChatGPT Psychosis"

futurism.com Unknown 2026-02-22 17:00:14

As we reported earlier this month, many ChatGPT users are developing all-consuming obsessions with the chatbot, spiraling into severe mental health crises characterized by paranoia, delusions, and breaks with reality. The consequences can be dire. As we heard from spouses, friends, children, and parents looking on in alarm, instances of what's being called "ChatGPT psychosis" have led to the breakup of marriages and families, the loss of jobs, and slides into homelessness.

OPPO Find X8 Ultra The OPPO Find X8 Ultra is one of the best Android phones for photography and videography, but it's ultra difficult for most of us to find and purchase due to its regional exclusivity. I’ve been waiting a long time for this, but finally, I spent some time with the OPPO Find X8 Ultra.

Every time a new handheld comes in for review, I have to spend hours installing emulators, fixing folder structures, and configuring a frontend.

Twenty-seven previously unheard works by Erik Satie, from playful cabaret songs to minimalist nocturnes, are to be premiered a century after the death of the notoriously eccentric and innovative French composer. Painstakingly pieced together from hundreds of small notebooks, most of the new works are thought to have been written in the bohemian bistros of Montmartre in Paris where Satie worked as a pianist in the early decades of the 20th century.

Until a few years ago, the town of Plympton, Massachusetts, was quite literally throwing away money. People were producing so much trash that it was threatening to put the municipal transfer station out of business. Under the town’s system, residents would buy a $240 sticker for their cars that allowed them yearlong access to the dump, where they could dispose of as much garbage as they wished.

After 2024’s Transformers One came and went, it’s been a question of whether we’d actually see the Autobots and Decepticons on the big screen. The answer now appears to be “yes,” and not just because Paramount’s still pretending that crossover with G.I. Joe is happening. According to Matt Belloni at Puck News, the studio is spinning up several Transformers movies. One is said to be helmed by One director Josh Cooley, and will be live-action.
