futurism.com Unknown 2025-12-13 16:12:59

"We don't always get it right," the AI maker wrote in a new blog post, under a section titled "On healthy use."

That may be in part designed to keep you from missing the first appearance of the Borg because you fell asleep, but it also helps you ponder if you instead want to get up and do literally anything else. The same thing may be coming to your conversation with a chatbot. OpenAI said Monday it would start putting "break reminders" into

The Best Open Earbuds You Can Buy Aren’t Actually Earbuds at All

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-12-14 11:02:00

Back in my day, the name of the game when it came to wireless audio was noise cancellation. That’s to say, how much noise can your wireless earbuds possibly block? And sure, active noise-cancellation (ANC) wireless earbuds are probably never going to fall out of vogue entirely, but in recent years, audio companies have recognized that it is, in fact, nice to sometimes be aware of your surroundings. Thus, a market for open earbuds was created. If you’re not familiar with “open earbuds,” as they’

Earlier this week, Mark Zuckerberg published a memo outlining his vision to build AI "superintelligence." Citing "safety concerns," he wrote that Meta would need to be "rigorous" about what it open sources and what it doesn't. The line stood out, as Zuckerberg has made open source pretty central to Meta's approach to AI. In fact, his comments differ from what he wrote almost exactly a year ago in a different memo titled "Open Source AI is the Path Forward." In that, he said that open source is
