AI coding tools are shifting to a surprising place: The terminal

For years, code-editing tools like Cursor, Windsurf, and GitHub’s Copilot have been the standard for AI-powered software development. But as agentic AI grows more powerful and vibe coding takes off, a subtle shift has changed how AI systems are interacting with software. Instead of working on code, they’re increasingly interacting directly with the shell of whatever system they’re installed in. It’s a significant change in how AI-powered software development happens — and despite the low profil

The M4 Mac Mini Offers the Best Value I've Seen From an Apple Product, and It's $60 Off

I bought the M4 Mac Mini after reading CNET laptop expert Joshua Goldman's review of the tiny machine. I was looking for a computer that would increase my productivity and better organize my workflow. Since then, I've found it to be the best value for money among Apple's lineup. For less than $600, you can get a more powerful computer than the $999 MacBook Air. The M4 Mac Mini, Apple's smallest computer, is an easy recommendation for me since it's one of CNET's picks for the best desktop comput

ZDNET's key takeaways The Alienware 34 240Hz QD-OLED Gaming Monitor retails for $800. It is a large, 34-inch curved gaming monitor with impressive visual output and an immersive design. Be aware that this display does not come with internal speakers. View now at Dell View now at Amazon more buying choices For the longest time, I considered curved monitors to be nothing more than a gimmick like 3D TVs (remember those?).

The FBI's Jeffrey Epstein Prison Video Had Nearly 3 Minutes Cut Out

Newly uncovered metadata reveals that nearly three minutes of footage were cut from what the US Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation described as “full raw” surveillance video from the only functioning camera near Jeffrey Epstein’s prison cell the night before he was found dead. The video was released last week as part of the Trump administration’s commitment to fully investigate Epstein’s 2019 death but instead has raised new questions about how the footage was edited and a

Your OnePlus 13 Will Get a Dedicated AI 'Mind Space' in Update Rolling Out Now

It's a non-negotiable right now that every phone-maker out there must have a plan for integrating AI into its devices. OnePlus is a little late to the party, but it's arrived nonetheless. Back in May, the company announced plans for bringing its own vision of personalized AI to OnePlus phones, and from this week, it's rolling out to the OnePlus 13 and 13R. At a launch event in London earlier this year I not only got to see the first AI features to land on OnePlus phones in action, but also lear

Severance, The Last of Us and Andor just nabbed dozens of Emmy nominations

The nominations for the 77th Emmy Awards just dropped and, unsurprisingly, Apple TV+'s Severance led the pack with a whopping 27, including Best Drama. The streamer has another bona-fide hit with the Seth Rogen-led The Studio, which captured 23 nominations. However, HBO Max received the most kudos by platform, with 142 nominations in total. This is thanks to the second season of The Last of Us , with 16 nominations, and the Batman-adjacent The Penguin. The White Lotus, The Pitt and Hacks also g

Trump Lets Polymarket Off the Hook, Ends Probe Into Crypto Betting Platform

If you bet “Donald Trump ends an investigation into a Peter Thiel-backed cryptocurrency platform,” you can claim your winnings. According to Bloomberg, two investigations into the prediction market Polymarket have been shut down by the Trump administration, just in time for Republican lawmakers’ planned “Crypto Week.” The probes, which were launched toward the end of the Biden administration, included an investigation by the Department of Justice into whether Polymarket was allowing U.S.-based

iOS 26 gives Apple’s Reminders app a new, faster way to add tasks

One standout addition enables you to create new reminders faster than ever, here’s how it works. ‘New Reminder’ control in iOS 26 enables fast task creation without opening the app I’ve tried many task managers over the years, and while they all have their strengths and weaknesses, one of the most important details to me is task input.

Google's AI Refuses to Even Play Chess Against 1977 Atari, After Hearing What It Did to Other Cutting-Edge AIs

The thing that AI models apparently fear the most? A game console released nearly fifty years ago. We are referring, of course, to the inimitable Atari 2600. Last month, the iconic system embarrassed the AI industry after it absolutely rinsed ChatGPT at a simple game of chess. It was a clash between a machine released in 1977, with 128 bytes of RAM, and a cutting-edge large language model with trillions of parameters, powered by however many thousands of graphics cards and billions of dollars

Beware! Research shows Gmail’s AI email summaries can be hacked

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR A researcher recently demonstrated a Gemini flaw that could be exploited to inject malicious instructions while using Gmail’s email summary feature.

Big tech companies have been billing AI as the ubiquitous tool that frees us from munda

Gemini is working to clean up how it handles Canvas previews (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google introduced Canvas in Gemini to aid with creating documents and editing code.

Gemini Space needs to fix a Pixel home screen issue we’ve had for years

Joe Maring / Android Authority Thanks to a recent APK teardown, we discovered that Google’s At a Glance feature on Pixel phones is getting a major overhaul. What we know as At a Glance will be rebranded as “Gemini Space,” and with that, Google is also adding more contextual cards to the longstanding widget — including sports scores, birthday reminders, finance updates, and more.

Google’s reconsidering its approach to Circle to Search within Gemini (APK teardown)

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Circle to Search has been a great tool for working with on-screen content, and Google’s been developing similar solutions across its ecosystem. Earlier this year we first uncovered evidence of a Circle to Search-like feature for Gemini. While still not user-accessible, Google’s been changing how this tool is labeled and what happens once you activate it. Google’s long had a bit of overlap when it comes to all the various services and apps it offers, s

First look at Gemini Space: Google’s Now Bar-like upgrade to Pixel’s At a Glance (APK teardown)

Aamir Siddiqui / Android Authority TL;DR Gemini Space is an upcoming upgrade to the Pixel’s At a Glance experience.

It does this using a few personal details, including your location. Sun Day also asks you to share what kind of clothing you're wearin

Interview with Google's Android leader Sameer Samat

My conversation with Sameer Samat, Android’s daddy…er…the President of Android Ecosystem at Google, started with him quizzing me. Perhaps he noticed my MacBook Pro or the Apple Watch on my wrist. I did make sure to at least record the interview with the lovely new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 I’m testing, but Samat wanted to understand how and, maybe why, I’m using a Mac. I stammered, unprepared for the interrogation, but Samat wasn’t asking me why I don’t use Android. Instead, he’s curious about t

I would use Google’s AI tools more if it fixed this glaring problem

Rushil Agrawal / Android Authority Ever since ChatGPT started gaining in popularity, every other tech company has been rushing to keep up with its advancements in generative AI. Although some might argue that OpenAI’s chatbot is still on top, the company that I believe has come closest to surpassing it is Google. After Google CEO Sundar Pichai issued a “code red” in December 2022 to meet the threat OpenAI represented, the company has created a powerful, robust, and wide-reaching set of AI-power

The Garmin Forerunner 570 is a powerful running watch but the price is all wrong

Garmin Forerunner 570 The Garmin Forerunner 570 is a sleek, high-performing running watch that nails the essentials and then some, but its price puts it in a strange no man’s land between its better-value siblings. With advanced training tools, added smart tools, and highly accurate sensors, it’s easy to love while wearing it, but unless you find it discounted, it's tricky to justify buying in the first place. I’ve spent the past few weeks testing the Garmin Forerunner 570, Garmin’s latest addi
