In a fireside chat on Monday between NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg at the SIGGRAPH 2024, the latter dropped the f-bomb<\/a>. After exchanging leather jackets (apparently two billionaires can\u2019t get custom-made jackets that fit), the two talked about the future of AI, chatbots and open large language models. <\/a><\/p>\n Zuckerberg launched into a lengthy rant about his frustrations with \u201cclosed\u201d ecosystems, like Apple\u2019s App Store. None of that is new \u2014 the Meta founder has been feuding with Apple for years.<\/p>\n Zuckerberg, decked out in the aforementioned leather jacket and chain, said: \u201cThere have been too many things that I\u2019ve tried to build and have been told \u2018nah, you can\u2019t really build that\u2019 by the platform provider that, at some level, I\u2019m just like, \u2018nah, fuck that.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n It\u2019s the latest public step along his rebrand\/ midlife crisis\/bit of both. MMA training, \u201cCarthage must die\u201d tees and rebellious banter all have more than a whiff of Succession<\/em>\u2019s Kendall Roy.<\/p>\n \u2014 Mat Smith<\/p>\n Border agents can\u2019t search cellphones of NYC visitors without a warrant, court rules<\/a><\/p>\n Instagram creators can now make AI doppelgangers to chat with their followers<\/a><\/p>\n Google\u2019s first cross-device sharing features for Android now rolling out<\/a><\/p>\n \u200b\u200bYou can get these reports delivered daily direct to your inbox. <\/em>Subscribe right here!<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n It\u2019s always fun to do a 180 on a newsletter from the day before. Apple\u2019s long-awaited take on artificial intelligence is, well, rolling out. Whoops<\/a>.<\/p>\n The developer betas for iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1 and macOS Sequoia 15.1 just dropped, and they include some of the first Apple Intelligence features. If you have Apple developer accounts, you can update software and go into settings to see a new option for Apple Intelligence. There, you\u2019ll have to join a waitlist, but it shouldn\u2019t take longer than a few hours.<\/p>\n The update includes writing tools for proofreading, rewriting or summarizing text. You\u2019ll also gain the ability to create Memories in the redesigned Photos app, as well as transcribe live calls in the Phone app. Features not yet available are Genmoji, Image Playground, ChatGPT integration, Cleanup in Photos and upgraded Siri<\/a>.<\/p>\n Continue reading.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Now there\u2019s more foldable competition than ever, how does Samsung\u2019s latest flip-phone fare? While Z Flip 6\u2019s design has remained largely the same, Samsung made several under-the-hood upgrades this year, with improved battery life and cameras. It makes the best case yet for mainstream foldables, but the company could do more, especially in using the secondary front screen. That said, the new AI features are a lot of fun.<\/p>\n Continue reading.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Sony announced a themed PS5 DualSense controller to coincide with its incoming Astro Bot game. The game, like the VR title before it, taps into all the tricks and features of the DualSense controller, so the collab is a no-brainer in a lot of ways. It costs $80 and ships September 6, the same day as the game.<\/p>\nThe biggest stories you might have missed<\/h3>\n
But not all the features.<\/h3>\n
