Now that Pebble is Pebble again, we’re getting an official look at the new Pebble Time 2 that’ll ship to customers later this year. (We got a sneak peak back in March, but those were preliminary designs.)

There's a micro-genre of film called "screenlife movies," where all of the action takes place on a desktop computer. In 2014, Unfriended made a horror movie out of video chat and text messages, and it was successful enough to inspire a sequel. The more thoughtful Searching from 2018, in which a father attempts to find his missing daughter, felt novel and a bit more promising for the genre...

"My account was suspended after I stated that Israel and the US are committing genocide in Gaza," it told one user.

The Financial Times reports that Altman and OpenAI are backing a new company called Merge Labs developing brain implants, making it a pretty direct rival to Musk’s Neuralink.

After the backlash to replacing its 4o model with GPT-5, OpenAI will no longer get rid of old models without a heads up.
"In retrospect, not continuing to offer 4o, at least in the interim, was a miss," Nick Turley, OpenAI's head of ChatGPT, said on Tuesday. In an interview with The Verge, he said it was surprising to see the "level of attachment" people had to 4o. "It's not just change...
Just a few days after administrators announced that the “federal Judiciary is taking additional steps to strengthen protections for sensitive case documents in response to recent escalated cyberattacks,” the New York Times reports investigators have found evidence Russia is “at least partially responsible” for a recent hack. Politico reported on the breach last week, saying it was “...
Google’s next Pixel launch event doesn’t happen until next week, but the company has already announced the Pixel 10 Pro Fold with a brief video teaser published on Tuesday. Based on the video, the new Fold will closely resemble the Pixel 9 Pro Fold — though that’s not a huge surprise, based on what’s already leaked about the device.
