zdnet.com Webb Wright 2026-03-23 00:14:38

NurPhoto/Contributor/Getty In his 2005 book "The Singularity is Near," the futurist Ray Kurzweil predicted that the Singularity -- the moment in which machine intelligence surpasses our own -- would occur around the year 2045. Sam Altman believes it's much closer. In a blog post published Tuesday, the OpenAI CEO delivered a homily devoted to what he views as the imminent arrival of artificial "superintelligence." Whereas artificial general intelligence, or AGI, is usually defined as a computer

Ken Rogoff is the former chief economist of the IMF, a professor of Economics at Harvard, and author of the newly released Our Dollar, Your Problem and This Time is Different.

Becoming an AI-Native Engineer

Posted on June 10, 2025 I’m confident I’m not alone in saying I’ve spent a lot of time over the past couple of years thinking about AI as an engineer / developer and what it means for our field and for our careers. For a long time, software engineering felt like a safe bet. After all, how could we be automated away when we’re the ones writing the automation? Or so we thought.

Google Pixels are no longer the AOSP reference device

news.ycombinator.com Abner Li 2026-03-22 23:53:08

With the launch of Android 16 earlier this week, Google did not release the Pixel hardware repos and device trees that are particularly important for custom ROM developers. This led to speculation by some that “AOSP is being discontinued.” Google has denied that, but the Pixel change does look to be intentional. On Tuesday, Google released Android 16’s source code to the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). However, the Pixel device trees and other code used to adapt the AOSP release to specific

Nintendo Has Something to Say if Your Switch 2 Battery Keeps Running Low

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2026-03-23 00:06:18

Those making gaming handhelds need to execute a complicated juggling act between how powerful they are and how long you can use them without a charge. With a new screen and more powerful processor, players plugging away on the Switch 2 are finding it hard to strike the right balance. Nintendo claims users should be able to get between 2 and 6 hours of playtime from its 5,220mAh battery. Some players say that number is skewing far too much toward the low end or that their console’s battery levels

California’s Salton Sea Is Emitting Way More Toxic Gas Than We Thought

California’s largest and most-polluted lake, the Salton Sea, is exuding hydrogen sulfide, a noxious gas, at rates that greatly exceed the state’s air quality standards. Alarmingly, a new study finds that California’s air quality monitoring systems may be severely underestimating how much toxic pollution is reaching people living near the lake. Hydrogen sulfide, which smells like rotten eggs, is linked to a host of respiratory and neurological symptoms. The new study, published in the journal Ge
