    Is this new smartwatch the Goldiclock you’ve been looking for? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Hello! And welcome to the first instalment of Looking for Goldiclocks, a three-part series where we seek to unearth the clock Goldilocks would wear on her wrist, if only she had survived the bear attack and was alive today. Yes, apparently the three bears impaled Goldilocks on a church steeple in the original telling of the fairytale, but we’re not going to let such a trifling detail stand between us and a thorough analysis of the latest wrist-worn clocks (which is to say, smartwatches).

    Can you wear AI glasses and not look like a pervert? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    I half expected this review would begin with me being chased out of a cafe as a pervert. After all, it is a review of a pair of artificial intelligence glasses, the type that has a camera built into the frame, that the public has been taking such a dim view of lately that many places have either banned them already or are in the process of banning them for being “pervert” glasses.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The rumours were right. Apple has finally launched a folding iPhone, seven years after its rivals. The rumours were wrong. The new folding iPhone won’t be called the iPhone Ultra, as was widely expected, but the iPhone Duo, and it will have a rounded, asymmetric design more akin to Google’s Pixel Fold than the passport-shaped Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 it was expected to ape.

    Dyson’s CameraJet is so much more than a very expensive toothbrush (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Believe it or not, Dyson’s new CameraJet toothbrush is not the first expensive electronic toothbrush we’ve tested here in the Digital Life Labs in the run-up to Father’s Day. It’s not even the first electronic toothbrush we’ve tested in recent weeks that features a tiny video camera you stick in your mouth, nor the first one that uses artificial intelligence to analyse the live image of your teeth streaming off that camera, to assist with your dental hygiene.

    The chipocalypse has changed the way Australians buy phones (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The explosion in the number of AI data centres around the globe has claimed another victim: it’s changed the way Australians buy mobile phones, forcing them to miss out on the latest models just to keep ahead of steep price rises, new data shows. Australians are now holding on to their phones for an average of 3.4 years before upgrading them, six months shorter than they did before the rapid build-out of AI data centres caused a global shortage of many of the chips used in mobile phones, laptops
