Trump Administration Moves to Destroy Satellite That Monitors Greenhouse Gases

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-09-02 08:15:35

The Trump Administration’s budget proposal for Fiscal Year 2026 would take an axe to NASA science. Two satellite missions on the chopping block have provided climate scientists, oil and gas companies, and farmers with critical atmospheric carbon data for years. The Orbiting Carbon Observatories are a pair of instruments that map atmospheric carbon on a global scale. NASA launched the OCO-2 in 2014 and mounted the OCO-3 on the International Space Station in 2019. Trump’s budget proposal threaten

Don’t hold your breath for OpenAI’s new model to run on your phone’s Snapdragon chip

TL;DR The new OpenAI model can now run directly on some devices with Snapdragon chips. It’s the first time an OpenAI reasoning model has been made available for on-device use. This could mean faster, more private AI features on your phone, just not yet. When you use an AI model like ChatGPT, it runs in the cloud rather than on your phone or laptop, but Qualcomm seems eager to change that.
