AMD acquires World Labs AI startup, upping the ante against Nvidia (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Chipmaker AMD and world models company World Labs announced that AMD will acquire the AI company by the end of the year, pending regulatory approval. The transaction is valued at $8.2 billion. In 2024, computer vision scientist Fei-Fei Li founded World Labs with fellow researchers Justin Johnson, Christoph Lassner, and Ben Mildenhall, with $230 million in funding, some of which came from AMD. The company began working on new world models, which are AI models that aim to provide a useful, predict
Interview: Firefox's chief on why he hopes a redesign will help win users from Chrome (opens the original)

Today, the Firefox 157 update will roll out a redesign of the web browser across desktop and mobile platforms. The team that made it hopes it will help expand the browser’s audience beyond privacy-conscious techies and open-web or open source advocates to a broader audience who might simply pick the browser because they prefer its user experience over competitors like Chrome, Edge, and Safari. In advance of the redesign’s launch, I spent half an hour chatting with Mozilla’s head of Firefox, Ajit

Siri AI—a large language model-based and context-aware overhaul of the company’s Siri voice and text assistant—is the flagship feature across all these releases except one (tvOS). The new Siri can respond in kind to natural language requests to do things like explain what’s on the screen and search the user’s past p
Apple's iPhone 18 Pro adds variable camera aperture and a more powerful chip (opens the original)
Read excerpt
CUPERTINO, Calif.—Apple’s new iPhone 18 Pro is an iterative update that—as usual—focuses heavily on both performance and new camera features. This time around, many of the new camera features are oriented around giving the user more direct control of the image, rather than depending entirely on Apple’s computational photography assumptions. As usual, the new iPhone has a new chip. It’s called A20 Pro, and it’s the first 2 nm chip for the iPhone. It has a 6-core CPU, with two super-cores that are
