Philips Hue bulbs will be even more expensive in July. And it may not end there.

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-03-10 23:07:34

Philips is upping the prices of its popular and already-expensive Hue series of smart lighting products starting July 1. The company is blaming tariffs for the changes and has suggested that prices could go up even higher after the initial bump in July. Philips started informing its customers via an email marketing message earlier this month that prices would go up and urged people to buy Hue lighting sooner rather than later.

Chinese Military Shows Off Fly-Sized Drones for Covert Ops

When it comes to robotics, nobody's doing it quite like China. Despite not truly industrializing until the 1950s — some 75 years after the United States — the nation has surged to the global forefront of robotics development. Between 2022 and 2023, China installed over half of all global robotics installed throughout the globe, scoring the second-highest annual robot deployment ever recorded — a close runner up to its own previous record, which it set between 2021 and 2022.

A new X-Men movie is coming. This much we know to be true. Jake Schreier, director of Marvel’s recent film Thunderbolts, is also expected to be directing it. That had yet to be officially confirmed, but io9—and one of Schreier’s fellow Marvel directors— both agree that it’s true.

Judge OKs Anthropic's Use of Copyrighted Books in AI Training. That's Bad News for Creators

Anthropic's use of copyright-protected books in its AI training process was "exceedingly transformative" and fair use, US senior district judge William Alsup ruled on Monday. It's the first time a judge has decided in favor of an AI company on the issue of fair use, in a significant win for generative AI companies and a blow for creators. Fair use is a doctrine that's part of US copyright law. It's a four-part test that, when the criteria is met, lets people and companies use protected content

Key fair use ruling clarifies when books can be used for AI training

Artificial intelligence companies don't need permission from authors to train their large language models (LLMs) on legally acquired books, US District Judge William Alsup ruled Monday. The first-of-its-kind ruling that condones AI training as fair use will likely be viewed as a big win for AI companies, but it also notably put on notice all the AI companies that expect the same reasoning will apply to training on pirated copies of books—a question that remains unsettled.

How a data-processing problem at Lyft became the basis for Eventual

Self-driving cars produce a ton of unstructured data from 3D scans and photos to text and audio. There wasn’t a tool for Lyft engineers that could understand and process all of those different types of data at the same time — and all in one place. This left engineers
