In either case, there are also some roadblocks. I'll just mention three: text-ellipsis can only be used to truncate unwrapped text, not entire paragraphs. Detecting truncated text is even harder, as is just measuring text: the APIs are inadequate. Everyone just counts letters instead. can only be used to truncate text, not entire paragraphs.

An AI generated image of an AI using its hands to reject me. Very meta, I know I gave the AI arms and legs — then it rejected me 2025-07-03 In October 2024, Anthropic released "Claude Computer Use". It allows an AI to control a computer and for example copy data from a browser to a spreadsheet. It's a really cool feature and since I am the maintainer of a library that allows controlling a computer, I was curious to find out how they do it and learn from them. I didn't have time to look into i

Earth's rotation is randomly speeding up, and nobody is quite sure why. These speedups, which have occurred several times over the last few years, haven't had any effect on daily life, but they also haven't gone unnoticed by science. Tuesday, Aug. 5 is the next date when Earth's rotation is expected to speed up, shortening the day by between 1.25 and 1.51 milliseconds. According to Time and Date, the current prediction is set by the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service and
A lot of people are overly reliant on Google. They put all of their important messages, appointments, musings, contacts, and spreadsheets into Google products. Many are aware that Google, like many tech firms, is likely to prioritize its own interests over user privacy. But signing data away for technological conveniences is a common occurrence. Murena's Pixel Tablet takes a stance against that norm. It's Google’s Pixel Tablet hardware running an Android fork but without any Google tracking or
WhatsApp deletes over 6.8m accounts linked to scams, Meta says The crackdown targets an increasingly common tactic in which criminals hijack WhatsApp accounts or add users to group chats promoting fake investment schemes and other scams. Meta made the announcement as WhatsApp rolled out new anti-scam measures to alert users to potential fraudulent activity, such as a user being added to a group chat by someone not in their contacts list. Many were tied to scam centres run by organised crimina
Call to vet YouTube ads like regular TV to stop scams Google, which owns YouTube, has said it strives to support an "advertising ecosystem that's trustworthy and transparent for users". Last week, Ofcom's annual report found that YouTube had overtaken ITV to become the UK's second most-watched media service behind the BBC. The party wants more YouTube ads to be screened for potentially harmful content before they appear on the platform and for media regulator Ofcom to issue fines. Ads on You

Update: August 5, 2025 (10:14 PM ET): The Galaxy Z Fold 7 has now crossed 180,000 manual folds. The YouTuber stopped folding and unfolding the device to report on its condition at 175,000 folds, and it looks like the speaker of the phone is no longer functioning. However, the display, hinge, and everything else remains intact. The YouTuber also shared some noteworthy findings along the way. Between 6,000 and 10,000 folds, the YouTuber reported that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 experienced a reboot error.
Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR YouTube’s playback controls are broken on the Android app. Playback speed controls are still functioning properly on the YouTube website and the iOS app. On Android, you can tap and hold for 2x speed, but you can’t change the speed settings from the gear icon. The YouTube app for Android appears to be experiencing a glitch that has effectively broken the playback speed controls. Currently, attempting to change the playback speed of a video doesn’t wo
Techradar TL;DR Microsoft has created Windows XP Crocs as part of its 50th anniversary celebrations. The custom footwear features a sky blue design with grassy green soles that mimic the conic Bliss wallpaper from the XP era. All I want is for Google to make Android Crocs a thing! Microsoft just did the unthinkable and made Windows XP cool again after almost 25 years. The software giant has released a pair of Windows XP-inspired Crocs, and now, all I can think of is how cool it would be if G
A few weeks ago, a few strings of code in the Apple Support app showed that it could soon get a “Support Assistant,” based on generative models. The assistant is now live, as a limited experiment. As first spotted by MacRumors reader Gatlyn, Apple has rolled out an early preview of the Support Assistant through a “Chat” tab that is being made available for select users within the Apple Support app. Upon tapping it, the user is greeted with a splash screen with the following instructions, and t
Joan Cros/NurPhoto via Getty Images ZDNET's key takeaways Google is introducing powerful tech for agents and data. They are also introducing a series of data-centric agents. A new command-line AI coding tool is now available. I am no stranger to hyperbolic claims from tech companies. Anyone who's on the receiving end of a firehose of press announcements related to AI understands. Everything is game-changing, world-changing, the most, the best, yada, yada, yada. And then there's Google. Goo
Beata Zawrzel/NurPhoto via Getty Images We all know AI relies on open-source software, but most of the big AI companies avoid opening their code or their large language model (LLM) weights. Today, things have changed. OpenAI, the artificial intelligence titan behind ChatGPT, announced a landmark return to its open-source origins. The company unveiled two new open-weight language models, gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b, marking its first public release of freely available AI model weights since GP

With that, we’re off! 1 – Into the computer age Computers and animation go way back. During the ‘50s, artist John Whitney used one to draw the opening titles for Vertigo. His experiments led him to digital films like Arabesque in the ‘70s. And he was one of many animators toying with the techn
Many people don't know that Mozzarella cheese is traditionally made from water buffalo milk. Mozzarella from water buffallo, or Mozzarella di Bufala is considered to be higher quality and better tasting than Mozzarella made frow cow milk. I wanted to know if it was really better, or if cheese snobs just say it's better. I had to wait a few months, though. Nugget Market here in Sacramento carries it, but they only sell it in the summer. Then Saturday came. My cell phone rang. I'd completely for

Software rot is generally thought of as degradation of software due to a changing environment. For example, a program written a decade ago may no longer work with new versions of the libraries it depends on because some of them have changed without retaining backwards compatibility. This kind of thinking encourages a culture where software becomes obsolete unless it is constantly maintained. A better approach might be to talk about the reliability of the environment the software depends on. Wou

On the heels of fielding the military’s first attack drone team, the U.S. Marine Corps added another weapon to their drone-fighting arsenal: a 90-page handbook all about employing small, unmanned aerial systems against the enemy and integrating them into formations. The 1st Marine Division Schools’ Small UAS/Counter-small UAS Integration Handbook was published in June and approved for public release. It’s intended to support the 10-day sUAS/C-sUAS Integration Course recently launched at Camp Pe
Alright, let's have a real talk. For years, the AI world has been obsessed with BIG. Big models, big data, big GPUs, and even bigger cloud bills. Most text-to-speech (TTS) models today are heavyweight champs of burning cash. We're talking about multi-billion parameter, GPU-guzzling monsters that need more silicon than your phone, your laptop, and maybe your entire neighborhood combined. They give you great voices, sure... but only if you're willing to sign away your firstborn to AWS. Forget tha
Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 may have just come out, but it appears the company is already teasing its next foldable phone that takes things to a whole other level. In an earnings call last week, which Seeking Alpha shared, Samsung noted it's pushing forward with its triple-screen foldable, which has been rumored for months. It also acknowledged the imminent arrival of its Project Moohan mixed reality headset, which it's developing with Google. Samsung reportedly said it's "preparing
