Since the COVID-19 pandemic five years ago, WIRED has continued to update our mask recommendations due to the constant changes in availability and evolving guidance. Add to that the threat of toxic air, not only from wildfire smoke but, even worse, from burning homes. Now is the time to purchase masks in the same way one would buy a first aid kit or medicine, just in case. Some masks—like our top affordable pick, the Honeywell Safety DF300 N95 Flatfold ($23 for 50)—are ideal for public transport

As a born-and-raised British man, I've spent my life watching British TV so I know firsthand just how good our comedy can be.

In the coming years, agents are widely expected to take over more and more chores on behalf of humans, including using computers and smartphones. For now, though, they’re too error prone to be much use. A new agent called S2, created by the startup Simular AI, combines frontier models with models specialized for using computers. The agent achieves state-of-the-art performance on tasks like using apps and manipulating files—and suggests that turning to different models in different situations ma

We’ve heard it before, and technically Apple has accomplished it before—though with mixed results. New products in the pipeline, however, mean that iPadOS 19’s success has higher stakes than previous attempts. iPadOS multitasking: Here we go again When the iPad first launched, it was a simple, approachable “third category of device.”

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working on a new “Scheduled actions” feature for Gemini, with options to pause and resume scheduled tasks. There aren’t further clues within the Google app, but we presume it could be similar to ChatGPT’s Scheduled tasks feature. Scheduled tasks contain instructions that enable ChatGPT to automatically run prompts on a scheduled basis. One of the primary use cases for digital assistants has been the ability to run reminders and scheduled tasks.
