cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-07-21 14:25:03

The new Superman movie continues to rule the box office after its second weekend, leading the pack with $57 million from US audiences, and this relaunch of the DC universe is only getting started. Superman stars Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor and David Corenswet as the Man of Steel. The movie isn't an origin story; it picks up when Superman is already well-known (and moments after he loses any fight-winning streak he previously had). I won't provide any more details

In the past few years, each new U8 model has ramped up the juice considerably, with the U8QG offering another powerful upgrade over last year’s U8N (8/10, WIRED Recommends).

Here’s how Apple Intelligence keeps privacy in mind versus the competition

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2025-07-22 05:10:43

Artificial intelligence has obviously been the industry craze for the past couple years. While large language models are incredibly capable, they’ve always come with a bit of a compromise: privacy. Ultimately, you’re still using a model hosted in the cloud, and all of your conversations are stored on some server. Apple’s always had privacy at the core of its products – so in the months leading up to the debut of Apple’s AI features, many people wondered: how would Apple handle it? Today, we del

How slow motion became cinema’s dominant special effect

About 20 years ago, a neuroscientist named David Eagleman strapped a bunch of students into harnesses, hoisted them to the top of an imposing metal tower, and then, without warning, dropped them 150 feet. Though the students landed safely in nets, the experience was—by design—terrifying. Eagleton wanted to simulate the feeling of plummeting to one’s death. His goal was to figure out why survivors of near-death experiences almost always said the same thing: “It felt like the world was going in sl

As detailed in a new paper published today in the journal Joule, the team found that their proposed "photothermal strategy" — essentially converting light into heat — could effectively convert carbon dioxide from extracted water into carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and oxygen gas, a "potential route for sustaining human life on the Moon and enabling long-term extraterrestrial exploration."
