9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2025-11-05 20:59:44

As it does in most years, Apple is taking a cue from the pre-order week to align its production orders with actual iPhone demand across the lineup. Here are the details. As reported by The Information, Apple is increasing iPhone 17 production, following a strong week of pre-orders in which the device may have done better than expected.

The process is similar to using other Google tools. Once you start using AI chatbots consistently, you'll find use cases for them that you keep going back to.

An untidy history of AI across four books

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-05 20:15:18

The history of artificial intelligence (AI) cannot be separated entirely from the general development of technologies that go back to the ancient world. Like the abacus, the machines we today call AI reproduce and automate our formal and cognitive abilities, albeit at higher levels of generality. More officially, AI research began in the postwar era with the “symbolic” paradigm, which sought to program human faculties such as logic, knowledge, ontology, and semantics within software architecture

‘AI Scheming’: OpenAI Digs Into Why Chatbots Will Intentionally Lie and Deceive Humans

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2025-11-05 20:20:16

At this point, most people know that chatbots are capable of hallucinating responses, making up sources, and spitting out misinformation. But chatbots can lie in more human-like ways, “scheming” to hide their true goals and deceiving the humans who have given them instructions. New research from OpenAI and Apollo Research seems to have figured out ways to tamp down some of these lies, but the fact that it is happening at all should probably give users pause.

And honestly, I can't wait to watch it again. Gunn wrote and directed the movie -- which is an achievement in and of itself when you consider that he was also writing every episode of Peacemaker season 2 -- and took inspiration mostly from Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely's celebrated All-Star Superman comic.

While it laid out a number of reasons for revisiting its earlier work, one of those focused on the science: The EPA's original decision was over 15 years old, and it claimed our understanding of climate change had itself changed since then.
