If you've used ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Grok, Claude, Perplexity or any other generative AI tool, you've probably seen them make things up with complete confidence. This is called an AI hallucination -- although one research paper suggests we call it BS instead -- and it's an inherent flaw that should give us all pause when using AI. Hallucinations happen when AI models generate information that looks plausible but is false, misleading or entirely fabricated. It can be as small as a wrong date i

The 7 coolest gadgets I've seen at IFA 2025 (including ones you can actually buy)

Maria Diaz/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. IFA is Europe's largest consumer electronics show, and this year is no different. IFA 2025 features some of the most eye-catching innovations ever, so much so that it's hard to narrow down the list of amazing products. However, at a time when the tech world is saturated with artificial intelligence (AI) adoption, I found it refreshing that the best products I've seen don't hinge on AI.

Eero’s Signal is a cellular safety net for your Wi-Fi network

theverge.com Terrence O'Brien 2025-10-14 09:24:09

The new Eero Signal could have saved me a lot of headaches when I was dealing with regular internet outages at my home last year. See, Signal automatically detects when your internet goes down and switches your whole Wi-Fi network over to a cellular connection to minimize disruption. Sure, when I’d suddenly see a “Slack is trying to connect” message, I could pull out my phone and hop on the hotspot, but that only brought my laptop back online.

NASA Finds Evidence That Mars Devoured Huge Chunks of Other Planets

The Red Planet has a bloody history. Newly examined data from NASA's retired InSight lander suggest that there may be giant chunks of rocky material deep inside the mantle of Mars, which were lodged there after a barrage of massive objects slammed into its surface some 4.5 billion years ago. Some of these smithereens are so large, the researchers say, that they're effectively protoplanets — moon-sized objects in the early stages of becoming a planet proper.
