Gigabyte Radeon RX 9060 XT Review: Great Value Gaming

It's AMD's turn. After months of $2,000+ GPUs and long discussions of DLSS, we're finally on the red team's turf. AMD's strength historically lies at the budget end of the spectrum, where the majority of gamers are playing at 1080p, and spending $1,000 or less for their entire system. Even though we really recommend splurging on a GPU, that's just not the reality for most folks. An $800 GPU needs $1,200 in other parts, and at that point most people who aren't into PC gaming will start shopping

You sound like ChatGPT

Join any Zoom call, walk into any lecture hall, or watch any YouTube video, and listen carefully. Past the content and inside the linguistic patterns, you’ll find the creeping uniformity of AI voice. Words like “prowess” and “tapestry,” which are favored by ChatGPT, are creeping into our vocabulary, while words like “bolster,” “unearth,” and “nuance,” words less favored by ChatGPT, have declined in use. Researchers are already documenting shifts in the way we speak and communicate as a result of

The 9 Best Pillows (2025) Tested and Reviewed by WIRED

You might think a pillow is a pillow. It just has to be soft and fit under your head, right? Your head, neck, and back disagree. Getting a good night’s sleep can depend heavily on your pillow, so when choosing one, here are a few key questions to ask. What kind of sleeper are you? Do you sleep on your back, side, or stomach? Do you stay relatively still, or do you toss and turn a lot? Do you usually have one pillow under your head, or do you cocoon yourself into a pillow chrysalis? This is prob

Microsoft to lay off thousands in July, but don't worry, AI's getting $80 billion

In context: There's been plenty of talk about machines displacing human workers in the AI Age, mainly focusing on direct replacements – computers taking over tasks like design and programming. Meanwhile, spending on AI infrastructure soars as investment in human skills steadily declines. Bloomberg reports that Microsoft is preparing to lay off thousands of workers next month, with most of the cuts expected to hit the company's sales and customer service divisions. It's a jarring move but not an

Brad Pitt’s Sci-Fi Film Roles, Ranked

Next week, one of our biggest movie stars hits theaters in one of the summer’s biggest movies. F1: The Movie, starring Brad Pitt, is out June 27 and it’s the kind of role only someone as huge as Pitt could play. Pitt has been one of the top movie stars in the world for decades. Rising to stardom in the early 1990s, he quickly jumped to leading man status and has never looked back since. Pitt has had an incredibly varied career, making films in seemingly every genre imaginable. He’s been in roma

AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT PCIe Benchmark: 8GB vs. 16GB

On store shelves, AMD's Radeon RX 9060 XT looks like a compelling option for gamers. It's affordable, backed by a trusted brand, and appears well-equipped for modern gaming. But there's a catch: the 8GB version is severely constrained by its limited video memory – a technical bottleneck that may not show up in standard benchmarks. That missing memory turns the 8GB model into a ticking time bomb for gamers hoping to future-proof their rigs. The 8GB RX 9060 XT is marketed under the same name as t

Once You Notice ChatGPT's Weird Way of Talking, You Start to See It Everywhere

It's not written by humans, it's written by AI. It's not useful, it's slop. It's not hard to find, it's everywhere you look. As AI-generated text is becoming increasingly ubiquitous on the internet, some distinctive linguistic patterns are starting to emerge — maybe more so than anything else, that pattern of negating statements typified by "it's not X, it's Y." Once you notice it, you start to see it everywhere. One teacher on Reddit even noticed that certain AI phrase structures are making t

In-Memory C++ Leap in Blockchain Analysis

Real-Time, Court-Admissible Crypto Intelligence at 1/400th the Cost of Inferior Legacy Systems The explosion of blockchain data isn’t just a challenge; it’s a crisis for conventional analytics. Financial institutions, investigators, and law enforcement agencies are hamstrung by tools that are too slow, expensive, and built on legacy database technologies incapable of keeping pace. Critical insights are missed, opportunities vanish, and illicit activities remain obscured by systems that offer on

Companies That Replaced Humans With AI Are Realizing Their Mistake

According to tech billionaire and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, 2025 was supposed to be the year "when AI agents will work." Despite widespread hype, so-called "AI agents" — a software product that's supposed to complete human-level tasks autonomously — have yet to live up to their name. As of April, even the best AI agent could only finish 24 percent of the jobs assigned to it. Still, that didn't stop business executives from swarming to the software like flies to roadside carrion, gutting entire dep

New dating for White Sands footprints confirms controversial theory

The 2009 discovery of footprints (human and animal) left behind in layers of clay and silt at New Mexico’s White Sands National Park sparked a contentious debate about when, exactly, human cultures first developed in North America. Until about a decade ago, it seemed as if the first Americans arrived near the end of the last Ice Age and were part of the Clovis culture, named for the distinctive projectile points they left behind near what’s now Clovis, New Mexico. But various dating methods indi

‘Kid-pilled’ Sam Altman ‘constantly’ asked ChatGPT questions about his newborn

Across hundreds of thousands of years of human existence, an impossible question has befuddled our species: why is the baby crying?! Sam Altman, who is both the father of a three-month-old and CEO of OpenAI, hopped on OpenAI’s new podcast today to talk about how his company is impacting his experience with fatherhood. Altman, who describes himself as “extremely kid pilled,” said he was “constantly” using ChatGPT to ask questions about the behavior of babies during the first few weeks of his son

AI in Hiring: Examining Biases and Human Experience

Is artificial intelligence streamlining the hiring process, or is it just automating old biases in new ways? As employers increasingly turn to artificial intelligence for recruitment and hiring processes, researchers are raising important questions about the technology’s effectiveness in creating fair opportunities for all candidates. A recent study by Theresa Fister and George K. Thiruvathukal of Loyola University Chicago explores the human experience of AI job applications and investigates pot

Apple debuts ‘Big Man’, a new Shot on iPhone short film starring Stormzy

Apple’s latest release in its long-running “Shot on iPhone” campaign is here, and this time it stars UK rapper and musician Stormzy in a cool new short film called Big Man. Watch it below, alongside an interesting behind-the-scenes video. Directed by Aneil Karia, Big Man was shot entirely on iPhone 16 Pro and tells the fictional story of Tenzman, “a world-weary musician, and the two bright, joyful kids who come into his life by chance. Soon the trio find themselves on a journey together — one t

Yes I Will Read Ulysses Yes

When Richard Ellmann’s James Joyce hit the shelves in 1959, the sheer size of the book (842 pages, 100 longer than Ulysses ) was as dazzling as the degree of detail. Joyce, who had been dead for 18 years, vividly inhabited its chapters, getting drunk, going blind, spending money, spiting enemies, cogitating, and, of course, creating a series of works that immediately made literary history. Moving briskly across the first half of the 20th century (not just a single day in Dublin), Ellmann spun a

‘Spider-Man ’94’ Comic Will Pick Up Right Where the Animated Series Left Off

Spider-Man: The Animated Series remains a fan favorite nearly 30 years after its conclusion—and it’s not just that giant cliffhanger ending that makes people wish it would return, though that’s certainly a motivating factor. While the first season of X-Men ’97 did wink at the Spidey ending in its own finale last year, Marvel’s current animated series Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man has its own continuity going. However, a new Marvel comic will dive right back into The Animated Series story

The ‘OpenAI Files’ push for oversight in the race to AGI

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has said humanity is only years away from developing artificial general intelligence that could automate most human labor. If that’s true, then humanity also deserves to understand and have a say in the people and mechanics behind such an incredible and destabilizing force. That is the guiding purpose behind “The OpenAI Files,” an archival project from the Midas Project and the Tech Oversight Project, two nonprofit tech watchdog organizations. The Files are a “collection o

Meta is offering up to $100 million to lure AI talent, says OpenAI's Sam Altman

Rumor mill: In the escalating race for artificial intelligence dominance, Meta has launched an aggressive recruitment campaign, offering top researchers compensation packages that have stunned the tech world. Led by CEO Mark Zuckerberg, the company is building a new "superintelligence" team and has reportedly offered salaries worth up to $100 million to lure talent from rivals such as OpenAI and Google DeepMind.

OpenAI boss: Meta offering $100m plus to poach my staff

OpenAI boss: Meta offering $100m plus to poach my staff However Mr Altman said "at least so far" none of his "best people" had been persuaded to jump ship. Meta - which owns Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp - is attempting to boost the artificial intelligence (AI) side of its business, including recently spending $14bn (£10.4bn) to buy 49% of the startup, Scale AI. The boss of OpenAI, Sam Altman, says members of his team have been getting "giant offers" from rival tech firm Meta, including $1
