PSA: iOS 26 Spatial Scenes will work on iPhones 12 and up [U]

After discontinuing Arc, The Browser Company is back with a new take on its vision for the future of web browsing in the AI era. Dia, its new browser, is now available in beta for existing Arc users on macOS. And while it shares a few design cues from its predecessor, Dia is a very different product with a very different goal.

Generative AI is permeating the Internet, with chatbots and AI summaries popping up faster than we can keep track. Even Wikipedia, the vast repository of knowledge famously maintained by an army of volunteer human editors, is looking to add robots to the mix. The site began testing AI summaries in some articles over the past week, but the project has been frozen after editors voiced their opinions. And that opinion is: "yuck."

The Exmor T sensors could reduce noise in low-light shots and improve dynamic range. Last year’s Xperia 1 VI did little to improve the rear camera situation from the previous year.
