Led by a team in Israel, the researchers found that giving people more time and flexibility to ramp up to the recommende

A New Kind of AI Model Lets Data Owners Take Control

A new kind of large language model, developed by researchers at the Allen Institute for AI (Ai2), makes it possible to control how training data is used even after a model has been built. The new model, called FlexOlmo, could challenge the current industry paradigm of big artificial intelligence companies slurping up data from the web, books, and other sources—often with little regard for ownership—and then owning the resulting models entirely.

Staples Union & Scale FlexFit Desk Converter Review: Reliable Riser

The included keyboard rest is optional to install, though the whole thing is designed to work together. It's a little annoying. I wish you could roll the tray into the riser to hide it, which would go a long way in making the FlexFit look a little more elegant, and could also help with storage.

9 Best 2-in-1 Laptops (2025), Tested and Reviewed

A 2-in-1 is a laptop that can go from a standard clamshell laptop configuration to a tablet setup. Over the years, there are really two types of designs that fall into this category: the convertible 2-in-1 laptop and the detachable tablet. Laptops with rotating displays—also called convertibles—use a 360-degree hinge that can position the screen flat, in “tent” mode, or flush against the underside of the laptop. Think of this as a touchscreen clamshell laptop with a fancy hinge. The flexibility
