techspot.com Rob Thubron 2025-09-13 18:15:00

A hot potato: CEOs love to sing the praises of generative AI while tiptoeing around the fact it's going to cost people their jobs. But Amazon boss Andy Jassy has just said the quiet part out loud, admitting that the technology will reduce the company's corporate workforce over the next few years.

If this OnePlus 15 camera leak is true, OnePlus might be making a critical mistake

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-13 19:00:57

Ryan Haines / Android Authority The OnePlus 13 is, without a doubt, one of my favorite Android phones available today — and for a multitude of reasons. Its design is great, performance is outstanding, and battery life is amazing. Unlike a lot of past OnePlus phones, the OnePlus 13’s cameras are just as good (if not better) than the rest of its flagship competitors. And that’s why the latest OnePlus 15 leak has me worried.

In general, ability to perform a task drops off as its duration increases, so they use the AI agent’s performance on tasks of different lengths to estimate the task-length at which the model would have a 50% success rate. They then showed that this length has been doubling every 7 months as the capabilities of frontier agents improve. The task-lengths are measured by how long it took humans to solve the same tasks.

The Fed's interest rate decisions impact mortgages, but the relationship isn't straightforward. Tharon Green/CNET Later today, the Federal Reserve is expected to extend a pause on interest rate cuts for a fourth consecutive time this year. While mortgage rates could see some volatility, many economists expect them to stay relatively flat until the economic picture changes.

If you ever need to transcribe audio or video to text, most current apps are powered by OpenAI’s Whisper model. You’re probably using this model if you use apps like MacWhisper to transcribe meetings or lectures, or to generate subtitles for YouTube videos. But iOS 26 and Apple’s other developer betas include the company’s own transcription frameworks – and a test suggests that they match Whisper’s accuracy while running at more than twice the speed … If you’ve ever used the built-in dictation
