Apple acknowledges iPhone Camera Control is overly complicated with iOS 26 change

9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2025-10-07 21:37:38

I absolutely love the Camera Control on my iPhone — just not in its default state. With the final version of iOS 26, Apple is taking the first step toward pulling back the overly complex Camera Control with one simple change. Camera Control is a highly requested feature iPhone users have wanted physical camera buttons since at least the iPhone 4 in 2010. That’s why Apple added the ability to use the volume buttons to snap photos in the Camera app way back then. More recently, Apple brought th

A closer look at the AirPods Pro 3: ANC, Live Translation and heart-rate tracking

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-07 21:39:56

The AirPods Pro 3 are a big upgrade over the AirPods Pro 2. Even though Apple has continuously added new features to those earbuds over the last three years, it hasn’t changed the design or shape of the earbuds since the first model arrived in 2019. With the AirPods Pro 3, you might not notice those tweaks until you remove the new ear tips, and the most impactful upgrades are all on the inside.

‘Traumatika’ Puts a Gruesome Spin on the Idea of Facing Your Demons

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-10-07 21:00:16

The new indie horror film Traumatika opens with a title card informing us of the “five forms of childhood trauma,” unsubtly announcing what’s about to happen over the next 80 minutes. Then we’re in the Egyptian desert, circa 1910, watching an anguished man bury a sinister-looking figurine in the sand. Only then do we arrive in the 21st century, where terrible things are very much afoot. The flashback adds a little bit of context, but it feels unnecessary; a cursed object is a not-uncommon horro

OpenAI and Oracle reportedly ink historic cloud computing deal

techcrunch.com Rebecca Szkutak 2025-10-07 21:00:34

In Brief Oracle sent its shares soaring after markets closed yesterday after reporting that it signed multiple multi-billion-dollar contracts with several customers. Now, we have an idea of who those customers might be. Oracle signed a deal with OpenAI for the AI company to purchase $300 billion worth of compute power over a span of about five years, according to reporting from the Wall Street Journal. OpenAI would start purchasing this compute in 2027. If the WSJ’s reporting is correct, this

With Anduril’s help, Australia has done what the U.S. Navy has struggled to accomplish: transition an extra-large undersea drone from white board to under contract in just three years. Anduril announced Tuesday that a fleet of its XL uncrewed undersea vehicle (XLUUV) “Ghost Shark” will begin operations in Australian waters next year under a massive AUS$1.7 billion (US$1.1 billion) contract.

Defeating Nondeterminism in LLM Inference

Reproducibility is a bedrock of scientific progress. However, it’s remarkably difficult to get reproducible results out of large language models. For example, you might observe that asking ChatGPT the same question multiple times provides different results. This by itself is not surprising, since getting a result from a language model involves “sampling”, a process that converts the language model’s output into a probability distribution and probabilistically selects a token.

NASA's Perseverance rover finds potential signs of ancient life on Mars
