The Download: AI doppelgängers in the workplace, and using lidar to measure climate disasters

technologyreview.com Rhiannon Williams 2025-10-21 12:10:00

—James O'Donnell Digital clones—AI models that replicate a specific person—package together a few technologies that have been around for a while now: hyperrealistic video models to match your appearance, lifelike voices based on just a couple of minutes of speech recordings, and conversational chatbots increasingly capable of holding our attention. But they’re also offering something the ChatGPTs of the world cannot: an AI that’s not smart in the general sense, but that ‘thinks’ like you do.

I’ve tested the best power stations, and these are my favorite ones of 2025

First things first: the Anker F3800 Plus is expensive! It has a retail price of $4,799. It’s a worthwhile investment if you can take advantage of everything it offers, though. The Anker F3800 Plus comes with a hefty 3,840Wh battery capacity. It can literally charge your phone hundreds of times. Of course, you’re not getting this to charge your phone.

Touted As The Tesla-Killer, Lucid Scrambles to Stay On The NASDAQ

gizmodo.com Riley Gutiérrez Mcdermid 2025-10-21 13:26:03

Beleaguered electric vehicle company Lucid Motors (LCID) has implemented a reverse stock split, consolidating shares to meet NASDAQ’s $1 minimum trading price and prevent delisting. As of Friday, Lucid’s share price was down over 96% from its all-time high of $64.86, reached in February 2021. While this move may protect the company from being removed from the exchange for now, it does little to address the underlying issues plaguing the struggling electric vehicle maker.

OpenAI is working on a new feature called the Thinking effort picker for ChatGPT. With the Thinking effort picker, you can choose how hard ChatGPT can think. When a model thinks harder, it doesn't necessarily mean a great response. You might not want the model to think harder when you're not sure what to do tomorrow. However, you may want the model to think harder when you're working on a complex topic, such as econometrics, bond valuation, healthcare and so on. As spotted on X, OpenAI is te

Early this summer, my wife and I had an inconvenient realization: we may need to be in two places at once. An urgent doctor appointment could conflict with YMCA day camp pickup, or our kids would get invited to two birthday parties on the same morning at godforsaken activity centers in separate towns. There was no doubt we needed another car. A big ticket purchase seemed unjustifiable when we don't know what eggs will cost next month — and my search for an aftermarket Prius within my budget was

TL;DR Realme has revealed a concept phone with a 15,000mAh battery. The phone is less than 9mm thick and can last for up to five days. The device uses a battery with 100% silicon content, effectively ruling out mass production for now. The advent of silicon-carbon batteries has resulted in many smartphone brands offering bigger batteries than ever before.

Blast from the past: Facit A2400 terminal

The year is (roughly) 1989, and we have a small office with some Unix computers and a handful of Facit A2400 terminals connected to them. What we love most about these terminals is they are positive terminals with black text on a white background. We “grew up” with green on black and, later at Nixdorf Computer AG, with amber on black.

Hasselblad's X2D II 100C offers improved autofocus and world-beating stabilization
