gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-06-04 15:06:06

OpenAI may be preparing to slap a new coat of paint on ChatGPT with an updated AI model, GPT-4.5, as early as next week. If that’s not enough to get users excited, the Sam Altman-led company is on the path toward its ultimate model while trying to hint that this next step will finally achieve “AGI.” Spoiler alert: it won’t. Based on anonymous sources, the Verge’s Tom Warren first reported that OpenAI’s next model could hit the scene sometime this month. Microsoft reportedly plans to host the co

Small study suggests dark mode doesn’t save much power for very human reasons

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-06-04 14:34:31

If you know how OLED displays work, you know about one of their greatest strengths: Individual pixels can be shut off, offering deeper blacks and power savings. Dark modes, now available on most operating systems, aim to save power by making most backgrounds very dark or black, while also gratifying those who just prefer the look. But what about on the older but still dominant screen technology, LCDs? The BBC is out with a small, interesting study comparing the light and dark modes of one of it

Microsoft’s new AI agent can control software and robots

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-06-04 16:39:12

On Wednesday, Microsoft Research introduced Magma, an integrated AI foundation model that combines visual and language processing to control software interfaces and robotic systems. If the results hold up outside of Microsoft's internal testing, it could mark a meaningful step forward for an all-purpose multimodal AI that can operate interactively in both real and digital spaces. Microsoft claims that Magma is the first AI model that not only processes multimodal data (like text, images, and vi

I’m Not Convinced Ethical Generative AI Currently Exists

wired.com Reece Rogers 2025-06-04 12:30:00

Are there generative AI tools I can use that are perhaps slightly more ethical than others? —Better Choices No, I don't think any one generative AI tool from the major players is more ethical than any other. Here’s why. For me, the ethics of generative AI use can be broken down to issues with how the models are developed—specifically, how the data used to train them was accessed—as well as ongoing concerns about their environmental impact.

iPhone 16e debuts Apple's first in-house modem, putting them one step closer to cutting ties with Qualcomm

techspot.com Cal Jeffrey 2025-06-04 17:06:00

In brief: Apple is a step closer to becoming silicon-independent. Its new C1 modem in the iPhone 16e marks Cupertino's first attempt at handling connectivity without outside help. The Silicon Valley tech giant has already cut ties with Intel, and Qualcomm could be next on the chopping block. Apple claims the C1 will improve power efficiency, helping the iPhone 16e achieve up to 26 hours of video playback. If the claim proves accurate, the 16e will become the longest-lasting 6.1-inch iPhone Cupe

Does Apple’s C1 chip mean mmWave 5G is dead?

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-06-04 18:48:50

Apple achieved a major milestone yesterday, when it launched an iPhone with its own in-house modem instead of a Qualcomm one: the C1 chip. This has been a key goal for the company for a great many years for two reasons, so finally ticking the box is a pretty big moment … The twin benefits of the C1 chip As we noted yesterday, ditching a Qualcomm modem for the C1 is a double-win for Apple. First, Qualcomm’s fee structure, which Apple has long considered unfair. When Apple bought modem chips f

Researchers Find Elon Musk's New Grok AI Is Extremely Vulnerable to Hacking

futurism.com Unknown 2025-06-04 15:28:54

Researchers at the AI security company Adversa AI have found that Grok 3, the latest model released by Elon Musk's startup xAI this week, is a cybersecurity disaster waiting to happen. The team found that the model is extremely vulnerable to "simple jailbreaks," which could be used by bad actors to "reveal how to seduce kids, dispose of bodies, extract DMT, and, of course, build a bomb," according to Adversa CEO and cofounder Alex Polyakov. And it only gets worse from there. "It’s not just ja
