I’ve Spent Thousands of Hours Testing the Best 3D Printers. There Are Some Clear Winners

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-09-23 13:23:00

What I like: I rarely find a product that impresses me, but the A1 Combo from Bambu Lab left me genuinely amazed with its performance and value. This 3D printer is excellent, with fast, quality printing at a great price. Adding the AMS Lite elevates it to the best printer you can buy right now. Plus, its four-color printing capability for less than $700 is such a good deal; I'm still baffled by how the company pulls off that pricing. The CNET test print from the Bambu Lab A1 is nearly perfect.

Google claims the browser will see its most significant upgrade ever in the next few weeks as AI permeates every part of the experience. For people who use AI tools, some of these additions might actually be helpful, and for everyone else, well, Firefox still exists.

This week, WIRED learned that OpenAI is ramping up its efforts in robotics—specifically, by hiring researchers who work on AI systems for humanoid robots.

How robotic beehives use AI to protect bees from climate change

cnbc.com Diana Olick 2025-09-23 18:18:01

Bees are critical for ensuring an abundant food supply year-round, but the bee population is in big trouble. More than one-third of the crops we eat are pollinated by bees, but 40% of bee colonies are collapsing each year, California-based Beewise said. One reason is climate change – specifically, stronger hurricanes, more frequent fires and the use of more pesticides. The wooden beehive was invented around 1850 for commercial pollination, but these basic boxes are not very protective and not
