How a 30-year-old techno-thriller predicted our digital isolation

technologyreview.com Tom Humberstone 2026-03-10 22:00:00

How much will you trust an AI chatbot powered by Meta to be your friend? Answers to this may vary. Even if you won’t, other people are already making close connections with “AI companions” or “falling in love” with ChatGPT. The rise of “cognitive offloading”—of people asking AI to do their critical thinking for them—is already well underway, with many high school and college students admitting to a deep reliance on the technology. Beyond the obvious concern that AI “friends” are hallucinating,

Google Messages will help you shame your friends into finally turning on RCS (APK teardown)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-10 22:00:47

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR To take full advantage of RCS messaging features, everyone in the chat needs to have RCS enabled. Google Messages is working on a feature that would prompt you to send friends without RCS a message asking them to turn it on. Messaging on Android is better than it’s ever been, and a big part of that is due to the arrival of Rich Communication Services (RCS) support. While that’s absolutely helped start pulling down some of the walls between Android and

A False Start on the Road to an All-American Bitcoin

US president Donald Trump waited a beat to soak up the applause. In front of a baying crowd of bitcoiners at crypto conference Bitcoin 2024 in July, he had just laid out his plan to turn the US into the world’s undisputed bitcoin mining superpower. “I want it to be mined, minted, and made in the USA,” he told the audience. “You’re going to be very happy with me—you’re going to be so happy.” Since returning to the White House, Trump has largely followed through on his crypto-related pledges: He
