Microsoft has introduced AI models that it trained internally and says it will begin using them in some products. This announcement may represent an effort to move away from dependence on OpenAI, despite Microsoft's substantial investment in that company. It comes more than a year after insider reports revealed that Microsoft was beginning work on its own foundational models. A post on the Microsoft AI blog describes two models.

GoPro Needs to Get Its Act Together if These Leaks for DJI’s Tiny Action Camera Are Real

DJI is taking yet another cue from Insta360. The China-based company recently pulled the curtain on its first 360 camera, the Antigravity A1, but there are more unique cameras to rip off. DJI may also have a “Nano” action camera with a detachable pod, something very close in shape and capabilities to the recent Insta360 Go Ultra. Even if DJI is stuck copying its competitor, at least it’s bringing something new to the world of action cameras, unlike a certain company that rhymes with “Slow no.”

Probability of typing a wrong Bitcoin address

I heard someone say that Bitcoin is dangerous because you could easily make a typo when entering an address, sending money to the wrong person, and have no recourse. There are dangers associated with Bitcoin, such as losing a private key, but address typos are not a major concern. Checksums There are several kinds of Bitcoin addresses. Each is at least 20 bytes (160 bits) long, with at least 4 bytes (32 bits) of checksum. The chances of a typo resulting in a valid checksum are about 1 in 232.
