Nvidia CEO Says AI Will Actually Make Us Busier in the Future

Elon Musk recently insisted that our robot-filled future will allow humans to collect free money for doing nothing, while bots do all the labor. But Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang doesn’t seem to be buying that narrative. In fact, Huang seems to think advancements in AI and robotics are going to mean that humans will be busier than ever in the world of tomorrow. Huang appeared on Fox Business on Thursday, where he talked about the controversy surrounding selling chips to China, Nvidia’s success as a $

Apple may have hidden clues in the art of the announcement. For this week's episode of One More Thing, embedded above

AI could dull your doctor's detection skills, study finds

DNY59/iStock/Getty Images Plus Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. ZDNET's key takeaways Endoscopists who use AI may see their cancer-detection skill degrade. Prolonged exposure to AI is diminishing doctors' focus and motivation. Favorable studies of AI in medicine may be corrupted by the study design. It's important to get a colonoscopy, especially past a certain age, as colorectal cancer is the second-most common cancer in the world after breast cancer. It's also the mo

Shadow IT Is Expanding Your Attack Surface. Here’s Proof

Shadow IT - the systems your security team doesn’t know about - is a persistent challenge. Policies may ban them, but unmanaged assets inevitably slip through. And if defenders don’t uncover them first, there’s always a risk attackers will. With just a few days of effort, Intruder’s security team uncovered multiple real-world examples of Shadow IT exposures: unsecured backups, open Git repositories, unauthenticated admin panels, and more. Every one of them contained highly sensitive data or cr

iOS Elegantbouncer: When You Can't Get Samples but Still Need to Catch Threats

Aug 24, 2025 · 1909 words · 9 minute read The Genesis: When Signatures Aren’t Enough 🔗 In the world of mobile security research, there’s a recurring frustration that keeps many of us up at night: the most sophisticated exploits - the ones that really matter - are rarely shared. When Citizen Lab and Google TAG discover NSO Group’s latest 0-click exploits targeting journalists and activists, we get brilliant technical writeups, CVE numbers, and patches. What we don’t get? The actual samples. Th

Altered states of consciousness induced by breathwork accompanied by music

The popularity of breathwork as a therapeutic tool for psychological distress is rapidly expanding. Breathwork practices that increase ventilatory rate or depth, facilitated by music, can evoke subjective experiential states analogous to altered states of consciousness (ASCs) evoked by psychedelic substances. These states include components such as euphoria, bliss, and perceptual differences. However, the neurobiological mechanisms underlying the profound subjective effects of high ventilation b

The Download: introducing: the Security issue

It would be naïve to think we are going back to a world without AI. We’re not. But it's only one of many urgent problems we need to address to build security and prosperity for coming generations. The latest print issue of our magazine is all about our attempts to make the world more secure. From missiles. From asteroids. From the unknown. From threats both existential and trivial. We’re also introducing three new columns in this issue, from some of our leading writers: The Algorithm, whic

Wahoo Kickr Run Review: a (Mostly) Screen-Free Treadmill

Ask any serious runner and they’ll tell you that treadmills are usually the bane of their existence. Alas, for folks who don’t live in Mediterranean climates, they’re a necessary winter evil that keeps us fitter in the off-season, but not necessarily happier. The no-frills design of the Wahoo Kickr Run, plus a magical mode that allows it to track your pace without touching a button, is what makes it the most real-pavement-seeming treadmill I have ever run on. I’m admittedly 20 pounds heavier th

Netflix sets opening dates for its destination entertainment hubs

We now have the opening dates for Netflix's branded entertainment complexes that we first learned of in 2023.

The Pixel Recorder’s Expressive redesign is rolling out now, but it’s not a total win

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR The Pixel Recorder app has received a visual overhaul in line with Google’s Material 3 Expressive style. Expect changes like a larger play button, more prominent toggles, and larger waveforms. The app also takes a step back by moving some useful shortcut icons into the three-dot menu. The Recorder app is one of my favorite Pixel phone features, owing to its on-device transcriptions, cloud backup functionality, and web-based access. Over the years, the

Acronis True Image costs performance when not used

Over two years ago I installed Acronis True Image for Crucial in order to migrate my data to a new SSD I had just purchased. It worked. I then left True Image installed “just in case”, and what harm could that possibly cause. Well, funny you should ask. I recently noticed that whenever I plugged or unplugged my external monitor Explorer.exe would consume a lot of CPU time – dozens of seconds of it. It was enough CPU time to make my computer noticeably sluggish until things calmed down which co

OpenAI warns against SPVs and other ‘unauthorized’ investments

In Brief In a new blog post, OpenAI warns against “unauthorized opportunities to gain exposure to OpenAI through a variety of means,” including special purpose vehicles, known as SPVs. “We urge you to be careful if you are contacted by a firm that purports to have access to OpenAI, including through the sale of an SPV interest with exposure to OpenAI equity,” the company writes.

Best early Labor Day laptop deals 2025: Sales on Apple, Dell, Lenovo, and more

How did we choose these deals? I found over 30 deals in my initial research, and wanted to include them, but decided to keep things short.

Microsoft’s Xbox handheld is a good first step toward a Windows gaming OS

is a senior editor and author of Notepad , who has been covering all things Microsoft, PC, and tech for over 20 years. The first thing I did when I got my hands on the Xbox Ally was reboot it. I wanted to see exactly how Microsoft manages to hide Windows beneath the Xbox interface that’s debuting on these handheld devices. After a short startup, I was met with the standard Windows login prompt. But I could use the controller to input the PIN code, an immediate improvement over what’s available
