Lisa Su Runs AMD—and Is Out for Nvidia’s Blood

A piece of advice if you’re meeting with Lisa Su: Wear sneakers. Su, the leader of AMD, moves fast these days, though I suspect that’s always been the case. Her company's chips underpin the artificial intelligence that’s changing the world at breakneck speeds. To hear Su and literally everyone else in semiconductors talk about it, the US is in an AI race with China—and the rules keep changing. The Trump administration has once again shifted its stance on what kind of chips can and can’t be ship

Apple’s AI Ambitions Leave Big Questions Over Its Climate Goals

Here’s a simple question: Is the current top iPhone better for the environment than the top iPhone was five years ago? Let’s take the iPhone Pro series. If we’re looking at recycled and renewable materials, it’s an easy yes. Compare the iPhone 11 Pro, released in September 2019, with the iPhone 16 Pro, released in September 2024, and there has been good progress—from a few smaller components and packaging to now at more than 25 percent of the whole phone. There's work to do, of course, but that

Ready for Apple's iOS 26? Here are all the compatible iPhones that can run the beta today

Your iPhone and iPad's operating systems are getting big upgrades this fall with the release of iOS 26 and iPadOS 26. My favorite coming to both is the visual update, called Liquid Glass — it's like the better-executed version of Windows Vista. We spent two weeks test-driving it — you can check out our detailed hands-on iOS 26 preview, or you can try it out yourself by downloading and installing the public beta. That software is a more stable iteration of the separate developer version, which re

iPhone 17 release is rumored for September: Everything you need to know about the 'thinnest iPhone ever' and the Apple fall event

The closer we get to Apple's reveal of the iPhone 17 lineup, the more excited we are to see what's different from the previous iPhones. The newest smartphones will come equipped with the latest iOS 26 features. Since we still have to wait at least a month (presumably) until the iPhone event, we can at least speculate what the new phones will look like. As with most unreleased iPhone models, rumors and leaks have trickled in about the hardware side ahead of the official introduction. Here's what

Boar’s Head to reopen plant as mold and funky meat problems pop up elsewhere

Boar's Head plans to reopen the Jarratt, Virginia, facility at the center of a deadly Listeria outbreak last year despite federal inspections continuing to find sanitation violations at three of the food company's other facilities, according to federal records obtained by the Associated Press. The AP obtained 35 pages of inspection reports via a Freedom of Information Act Request. Those reports cover inspections between January 1 and July 23 at three other Boar's Head facilities: Forrest City,

iOS 26 beta hints at upcoming AirPods live translation gesture

When Apple announced Live Translation at WWDC25, it highlighted use cases like FaceTime, phone calls, and messages. But one major use case was missing: real-world conversations. As it turns out, that was in the works too. New image hints at new AirPods gesture In today’s iOS 26 developer beta 6, we spotted a new system asset that appears to depict a gesture triggered by pressing both AirPods stems at once. The image displays text in English, Portuguese, French, and German, and it is associate

StubHub IPO is back on for September after ticketing company delayed plans on tariff concerns

StubHub, the ticketing marketplace that spun out of eBay in 2020, has resumed its plans to go public and is now aiming to hold its IPO next month, CNBC has learned. The company originally paused its IPO plans in April as the stock market was reeling from President Donald Trump's "liberation day" tariffs. The decision came after StubHub submitted its prospectus in March indicating it would list on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker "STUB." StubHub now expects to kick off its IPO roads

This iPad-MacBook Air mod is either cursed or genius, depending on who you ask

Back in 2018, Apple said it had no plans to merge iPadOS and macOS. So far, it’s kept that promise. Still, some Mac users keep wishing for a touchscreen MacBook, while some iPad fans want a more Mac-like experience. One YouTuber decided to build both, sort of.

Nvidia’s Six-Word Response to China

Nvidia is on the defensive. Just as the AI giant secured a fragile, high-stakes deal to resume selling its specialized chips to China, the company is now being forced to fight back against accusations from Chinese state media that its products are a national security threat. The attack, which came just hours after the deal with the Trump administration was reported, puts Nvidia in a geopolitical vise, caught between a skeptical Washington and a newly hostile Beijing. According to Reuters, a so

Google Meet’s new full-screen mode puts presentations front and center

TL;DR Google Meet now has a full-screen option for presentations and screen shares. The feature pushes participants into a sidebar so content takes center stage. It’s rolling out now for Rapid Release and coming August 14 to Scheduled Release. If you’ve spent any time in a Google Meet call, you’ll know that part of the screen is a slide deck and the rest is a gallery of participants reacting or pretending to pay attention. Google’s latest tweak aims to make that first half a little easier to

Trump says he asked for 20% cut from Nvidia, calls H20 an 'obsolete' chip

U.S. President Donald Trump (L) listens as Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang speaks in the Cross Hall of the White House during an event on "Investing in America" on April 30, 2025 in Washington, DC.

NVIDIA may give US government a cut of its profits to sell AI chips to China

The debate over whether AI chipmakers should be allowed to sell their products to China has taken an unusual turn. The US government has reportedly given NVIDIA and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) permission to make the sales but for one big catch: 15 percent of the sales. The news was first reported by The Financial Times, which cited multiple people familiar with the agreement. In July, NVIDIA announced that the US government would approve export licenses to sell its H20 AI GPUs after blocking t

Let’s Face It, the Next MacBook Needs to Be Cheap

We need an affordable MacBook, now more than ever. It’s time to face the fact that today’s headlining laptop chips are overkill for what most folk need a computer for. If the majority of internet users are browsing the internet on phones that cost $200 or $400 less than the cheapest MacBook Air, it only makes sense to put a mobile chip into a laptop shell and call it a day. New rumors suggest that Apple could do just that, and we could see this cheapo Mac before the end of the year. Apple suppl
