Crunchyroll's lazy AI subtitles have anime fans furious

At the start of last year, Crunchyroll President Rahul Purini told The Verge the company was "very focused on testing" generative AI tools for subtitling and captioning speech to text. The comment came just months after the streamer temporarily took down the debut episode of one of its newest shows, The Yuzuki Family's Four Sons, after people complained about poor subtitles.

Astronomers have, for the first time, witnessed a star meeting a dramatic end by exploding twice.

Apple's AI Research Has Failed So Spectacularly That It's Considering Just Letting OpenAI Power Siri

For the past few months, Apple has been mired in a tangled legal web of its own making. When the tech giant released the iPhone 16 back in September of 2024, it promised customers a suite of shiny new "Apple Intelligence" features, which would "roll out later this year and in the months following." At the crux of the sales pitch was a commitment to release an AI-powered version of Siri — in other words, a large language model (LLM) upgrade to Siri's ancient algorithm — which the company said co
