Google DeepMind's Aeneas model can restore fragmented Latin text

engadget.com Unknown 2026-01-05 02:20:04

At its best, AI is a tool, not an end result. It allows people to do their jobs better, rather than sending them or their colleagues to the breadline. In an example of "the good kind," Google DeepMind has created an AI model that restores and contextualizes ancient inscriptions. Aeneas (no, it's not pronounced like that) is named after the hero in Roman mythology. Best of all, the tool is open-source and free to use. Ancient Romans left behind a plethora of inscriptions. But these texts are oft

This Retro PC Case Gives Your Gaming Rig Big Windows 95 Energy

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2026-01-05 16:30:41

Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. It’s enough to turn off the parts of my brain that would normally despise the look of a big, gray, plastic box and transform me into a drooling retro devotee ready to hand over his cash just to hear those fans whir. That was my first reaction when I saw custom PC maker Maingear’s new Retro95 throwback PC case. It comes packed with the modern components you expect to see in a modern gaming rig, but it adds extras like an optical disc drive and I/O ports hidden under

It Looks Like the Tesla Model Y Refresh Has Bombed

wired.com Carlton Reid 2026-01-07 02:00:00

Despite Elon Musk stepping away from his DOGE activities, Tesla’s sales have continued to slide. No doubt Musk hoped that the release earlier this year of the refreshed Model Y would help reverse these fortunes; however, describing the six-year-old midsize crossover EV as “new” appears not to have attracted as many buyers as Tesla anticipated. Model Y is crucial for Musk; it accounts for roughly two-thirds of Tesla's global sales (though this fluctuates). Last year, however, according to JATO D
