I Swam With Anker's 'Built for the Wild' Bluetooth Speaker -- It's a Bargain at 32% Off for Prime Day

A little less than five years ago, Anker released a Bluetooth speaker called the Soundcore Motion Plus that turned out to be popular because it delivered surprisingly good sound for its compact size and $100 price. In some ways, Anker's new Soundcore Boom 3iSoundcore Boom 3i is the spiritual successor to that speaker. It's similarly shaped but has more of an outdoor adventure slant. Anker calls it "built for the wild" and billing it as the first Bluetooth speaker with playback in water, as it fl

How scientists are trying to use AI to unlock the human mind

Compared with conventional psychological models, which use simple math equations, Centaur did a far better job of predicting behavior. Accurate predictions of how humans respond in psychology experiments are valuable in and of themselves: For example, scientists could use Centaur to pilot their experiments on a computer before recruiting, and paying, human participants. In their paper, however, the researchers propose that Centaur could be more than just a prediction machine. By interrogating th

Here’s what I like and dislike about Android’s new Expressive design

Joe Maring / Android Authority If you’ve installed the stable version of Android 16 on your Pixel, you might be disappointed to find that the big visual refresh Google announced on May 13 is conspicuous by its absence. An unfortunate consequence of the new platform release schedule is that some of the more notable new Android 16 features won’t be arriving until the Android 16 QPR1 update in early September. That means that even though there’s plenty of goodness in the initial stable release — l

Should you buy a cheap Android tablet from Amazon? This model is a surprisingly viable option (and the price is slashed for Amazon Prime Day)
