It’s Google’s turn to convince us to care about AI on our phones

Lenovo Legion Go S Is My New Favorite Way to Play Call of Duty Anywhere

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-11-15 23:00:04

As a tech enthusiast, I do buy a lot of stuff (you know, just doing my bit!), but I believe the Lenovo Legion Go S is the best purchase I've made since the pandemic. The reason why? Sitting in bed and playing Call of Duty multiplayer is one of my new favorite things to do. It does come with some compromises, but playing my favorite game without setting foot on the floor? Worth it. I spent a lot of time trying to decide which handheld to buy, whether the Steam Deck, the Nintendo Switch 2 or any

People Are Trying to ‘Deprogram’ Their MAGA Parents Through Book Clubs

wired.com Tess Owen 2025-11-16 00:00:00

The idea of starting a book club came to Valeen Heinle late one night in July. She was having a particularly bad argument with her Trump-supporting dad over Israel’s war in Gaza and its devastating impacts on children. "I'm begging you to just try and learn something that isn't from Facebook, Fox, or Newsmax," Valeen, a 38-year-old registered Democrat who works as a pet sitter in Denver, wrote to her dad via Instagram DM after they exchanged a series of posts about Gaza. “Read a book on the his

All-In Podcast Boys Poke Fun at Uber Founder’s ‘AI Psychosis’ (Which They Encouraged)

gizmodo.com Matt Novak 2025-11-16 14:15:36

Remember when the guys over at the All-In podcast talked with Uber founder Travis Kalanick about “vibe physics“? Kalanick told viewers that he was on the verge of discovering new kinds of science by pushing his AI chatbots into previously undiscovered territory. It was ridiculous, of course, since that’s not how an AI chatbot or science works. And Kalanick’s ideas got ridiculed to no end by folks on social media.

Why Paradigm built a spreadsheet with an AI agent in every cell

techcrunch.com Rebecca Szkutak 2025-11-17 18:00:55

Anna Monaco has been building AI agents since before the term “AI agents” was even a thing. After building numerous chatbots, she started looking for other types of interfaces that made sense for AI agents and landed on spreadsheets. “I had this personal pattern, and I noticed that a lot of other people had this pattern, of putting very important CRM data in spreadsheets just because it was the most flexible thing,” Monaco told TechCrunch. “But it was actually a pain to maintain.

The Nothing Phone 3 is a fun, flawed, but overall worthy semi-flagship

Nothing Phone 3 The Nothing Phone 3 tries to be an Android flagship while skipping out on just a few key areas like the chipset and top-end materials. But, with new perks like faster wired charging, improved cameras, and official US carrier support, as well as that signature hardware and software design flair, this is the easiest Nothing Phone to recommend to date.

Every once in a while, we all feel the need to modify something that someone else built. Sometimes those patches make sense to upstream, but not always. Sometimes they need a bit more time to bake, before they're ready to share with the world. Sometimes they're too specific to your environment.

OpenAI is working on a cheaper plan called ChatGPT Go, and we previously thought it would be just limited to a few regions like India, but that may not be the case. As pointed out by Tibor on X, OpenAI has added a new Try Go call to action on the GPT Dashboard. This is being tested behind a hidden feature flag. When you select Try Go, you'll be asked to pay at least $4. Previously, the pricing was just limited to India, but it now includes more countries. GPT Go now includes pricing in EUR (€
