Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. ZDNET's key takeaways Most ChatGPT use is non-work, focused on writing tasks.

Ice Cube Speaks Out on Why His ‘War of the Worlds’ Was So Weird

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-10-01 14:43:24

Amazon Prime’s War of the Worlds arrived without fanfare on the streamer this summer—until viewers discovered it and realized how delightfully scorn-worthy it was. Whether it was the big hero moment given to an Amazon delivery drone, or the sheer oddness of seeing H.G. Wells’ dynamic sci-fi epic acted out entirely on computer screens, it attracted the wrong kind of attention while offering a reminder of how fun it can be to witness a creative misfire set free on one of the biggest platforms arou

The unbearable sameness of Liquid Glass

theverge.com David Pierce 2025-10-01 13:07:08

Liquid Glass is a neat party trick. The new design system, which was built for nearly all of Apple’s products and is rolling out this week, is built on the idea that interfaces should be three-dimensional: in the world of Liquid Glass, buttons and menus sit on top of whatever you’re doing or looking at, changing color and refracting digital light like they’re physical objects. It’s meant to feel like glass does in the real world. It’s visually very impressive, and it all kind of works! You insta

Google thinks it can have AI summaries and a healthy web, too

So, I don’t want to speak about the specifics of the lawsuit, but I can speak to our philosophy here, which is, look, we want a healthy ecosystem. The 10 blue links serve the ecosystem very well, and it was a simple value proposition. We provided links that directed users free of charge to billions of publications around the world. We’re not going to abandon that model. We think that there’s use for that model. It’s still an important part of the ecosystem. But user preferences, and what users

Apple's Sleeper Hit of Its Fall Lineup? The Apple Watch SE 3

At Apple's September event, the new iPhone 17 models and AirPods Pro 3 took much of the attention, plus the super-thin iPhone Air and updated Apple Watch Ultra 3. But in this frugal girl's book, the real headliner was the one that snuck in as the real underdog of Apple's entire fall lineup: the Apple Watch SE 3. I usually overlook Apple's SE model because it lacks many of the powerhouse features of the flagship and Ultra editions, like an always-on display or temperature tracking. But this year

‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Producers Promise Season 4 Will Be Better

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds‘ third season was weird as hell. Not just for the wild swings in tone and genre the series went for in its latest round of boldly going, but for a season that veered largely in quality from one episode to the next, including a particularly notable nosedive in its back half. But now that the season is over, and work on the next has already concluded, its producers are beginning to acknowledge that stumble. Speaking to TrekMovie recently after a screening of season 3
