GM teams up with Redwood Materials to power data centers with EV batteries

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2026-01-19 20:00:00

GM is sending new and old EV batteries to recycler Redwood Materials, which then repurposes the packs for stationary energy storage, the two companies announced today. Second-life batteries from GM have already made their way through Redwood’s process and into a 12 megawatt microgrid at the company’s Sparks, Nevada, headquarters. Electricity from that installation then flows to a nearby 2,000 GPU data center owned by Crusoe. The microgrid is part of Redwood’s new energy storage division that l

The next Made By Google event (better known as the Pixel launch) is set for August 20

Google will host its next Made by Google event on August 20, the company announced today. In a media invite, it promised the event would feature new Pixel phones, watches, buds "and more." It's hard to imagine what other product types might be covered by those last two words, but for those who watch the industry closely, this event is likely to see the launch of the Pixel 10 flagship phones, along with a Pixel Watch 4 and new Pixel Buds.

'Gentle Parenting' My Smartphone Addiction

On a recent weekday, I sent an Instagram message to a friend of mine, an art adviser in New York named Stephen Truax, to gossip about an exhibition. Instead of messaging me back in the app, he texted me to say that he’d blocked Instagram on his smartphone during daytime working hours. Impressed, I asked him how he was accomplishing such a feat. Truax said he was using Opal, an app that makes your smartphone a little more like a so-called dumbphone, without requiring you to trade in your device a

‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ Cleverly Hooks a New Generation

The new I Know What You Did Last Summer offers a bold, refreshing take on horror requels that’s a worthy successor to the original film. While stars of the 1997 film Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. reprise their roles as Julie James and Ray Bronson, it’s a relief that they are not the parents of any of the new gang of accidental murderers. This isn’t just I Know What You Did: The Next Generation, and the fact that it isn’t speaks to the new film’s desire to do something more than jus

Trump and the Energy Industry Are Eager to Power AI With Fossil Fuels

wired.com Molly Taft 2026-01-20 05:16:45

AI is “not my thing,” President Donald Trump admitted during a speech in Pittsburgh on Tuesday. However, the president said during his remarks at the Energy and Innovation Summit, his advisors had told him just how important energy was to the future of AI. “You need double the electric of what we have right now, and maybe even more than that,” Trump said, recalling a conversation with “David”—most likely White House AI czar David Sacks, a panelist at the summit. “I said, what, are you kidding?

Bang & Olufsen Beosound A1 (Gen 3) Review: Perpetually Great

The stylish puck of brushed aluminum was a welcome antidote to all the rubberized Bluetooth boxes, and as a testament to good design, aesthetically it has changed little through three generations.
