This Electric Shaver Is Made From Aircraft-Grade Aluminium, Because Why Not?

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-10-14 18:04:35

Nothing says “premium” like aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, am I right? I guess. I don’t know, it sounds fancy and it looks fancy, too, which makes Laifen’s new electric shaver, the T1 Pro, the swankiest electric shaver I’ve seen all day. The T1 Pro, which was announced at IFA 2025, is apparently crafted with “a single block of aerospace-grade aluminum alloy,” which makes this over-engineered shaver both light and very durable, according to Laifen. Powering this thing is what Laifen describes a

‘Strange New Worlds’ Has Terminal Prequel Brain

gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-10-15 03:30:20

Strange New Worlds has been having a rough go of it this season. From tonal misfires to episodes that have swung for gimmicks over engaging with the material questions they raise, the show has traded depth for breadth in terms of the sheer variety of spaces it explores. But one thing has become clear over the course of the season that becomes crystal in its penultimate episode: the only time the show is willing to knuckle down and really focus is when it wants to ride on the coattails of the Tre

Anyone can now download Tesla's iOS Robotaxi app, but there's still a waitlist

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-15 07:55:23

Tesla has made its iOS Robotaxi app available for all iPhone users to download as it expands service beyond a group of early access users for the first time. Beyond the current lack of an Android app (Tesla says one is on the way), there are a couple of things to bear in mind here. The company's proper robotaxis are currently only available in Austin, Texas. There's also a waitlist, so you won't be able to book a ride immediately. That said, it might not take folks on the waitlist too long to g

The Download: unnerving AI avatars, and Trump’s climate gift to China

technologyreview.com Rhiannon Williams 2025-10-15 08:10:00

—Rhiannon Williams Earlier this summer, I visited the AI company Synthesia to give it what it needed to create a hyperrealistic AI-generated avatar of me. The company’s avatars are a decent barometer of just how dizzying progress has been in AI over the past few years, so I was curious just how accurately its latest AI model, introduced last month, could replicate me. I found my avatar as unnerving as it is technically impressive. It’s slick enough to pass as a high-definition recording of a

NASA Finds Evidence That Mars Devoured Huge Chunks of Other Planets

futurism.com Unknown 2025-10-15 18:00:06

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. In other words: Mars could be stuffe

Synthesia’s AI clones are more expressive than ever. Soon they’ll be able to talk back.

technologyreview.com Rhiannon Williams 2025-10-16 07:05:33

When Synthesia launched in 2017, its primary purpose was to match AI versions of real human faces—for example, the former footballer David Beckham—with dubbed voices speaking in different languages. A few years later, in 2020, it started giving the companies that signed up for its services the opportunity to make professional-level presentation videos starring either AI versions of staff members or consenting actors.
