The company touted that with this framework, developers gain access to AI models without worrying about any inference cost. Plus, these local models have capabilities such as guided generation and tool calling built in. As iOS 26 is rolling out to all users, developers have been updating their apps to include

Octopus Energy spins off its Kraken utility billing and AI platform

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2025-09-22 17:28:03

British renewable energy provider Octopus Energy said this week that it’s spinning off Kraken, its tech platform for utilities, spurred in part by $500 million in committed annual revenue from other utilities and energy providers. An eventual Kraken IPO could be valued at $15 billion and could occur within a year, according to The Wall Street Journal. Kraken was actually the company’s initial product, according to Octopus CEO Greg Jackson. “We created Octopus as the ‘demo client,’” he told the

Robert Triggs / Android Authority When switching to any new technology, there’s always a subset of techies curious about how things work—myself included.

How Apple used ANC to build its best AirPods features

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-22 21:00:37

Once upon a time, noise-canceling headphones primarily existed for one purpose: air travel. Bose and Sennheiser were among the first on the scene commercially, blocking unwanted sounds for pilots long before wireless headphones were even a thing. Today, active noise cancellation (ANC) is not just commonplace, it's practically expected for any consumer headphone. During the development of its four sets of AirPods with ANC, Apple has harnessed the power of its noise-blocking system to create a na
