Meta Wants to Make Its First AR Glasses With a Display as Cheap as a Flagship Phone

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-12-19 14:10:35

If there’s one thing that we’ve learned in the world of mixed reality over the past year, it’s that price is pretty much everything. Just ask Apple, which is still struggling to find an audience for its $3,500 Vision Pro headset.

‘Good Boy’ Promises Genuine Frights Along With Its Furry Star

Dogs have long had a presence in horror movies, but it doesn’t always turn out so well for them. Think Lester in Halloween, murdered early in Michael Myers’ spree, or the title character in Cujo, bitten by a rabid bat and transformed into a monster. But the tables turn in Good Boy, a new film starring director and co-writer Ben Leonberg’s actual pet, Indy. In the first trailer, not only do we get some adorable puppy footage, but we also get a taste of Indy’s canine acting skills, as he plays a p

The US May Have Already Lost the AI Race to China Due to a Key Weakness

You might have heard of an "AI race" heating up between the US and China, a bitter rivalry between two global adversaries that could shape the direction of world history. At least, that's how some in the US feel. While China has repeatedly tried to establish a geopolitical friendship with the richest nation in the world, officials and pundits in the US have doubled down, reframing artificial intelligence as the 21st century's nuclear bomb.
