It's official: Meta is ready to join the AI fray. Meta AI received a massive update this week. Llama 3 is Meta's new large language model that powers Meta AI, which Mark Zuckerberg claims is more intelligent than anything in the industry. Meta AI is now available on the web, Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp in multiple countries, though it's not a worldwide rollout yet. Still, this shows that Meta is finally ready to challenge ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, and everyone else. The company is adding its AI product to all its social networks, which have billions of active users. Meta AI w ..read more

Netflix's quarterly earnings report for the three-month period ending in March is in, with an unexpected surprise. No, a Netflix price hike isn't imminent, though the company said that it doesn't have a ceiling and it'll continue to ask for more money from subscribers from time to time. But Netflix did announce that it will stop reporting subscriber numbers next year. The decision might seem like an indication of bad news to come. Why would Netflix stop reporting subscriber figures? Is the company acknowledging that subscriber growth will soon be a think of the past? Perhaps, but it's not nec ..read more

Following the report of a revamped Notes app for iPhone, iPad, and Mac users starting with iOS 18, Apple may be planning a big update for the Calculator app in macOS 15.

The publication says there'll be a dedi ..read more

Apple has been working on several home products. Although the only few we have seen so far are a slew of HomePod models and new iterations of Apple TVs, the company is working on at least four main smart home products that could launch soon. One is a HomePod with a display, which has been rumored for a few years. Most recently, X user Kosutami has been sharing images of what could be on the screen of this new product. On the social media platform, they posted: "New picture of the HomePod with display. Glossy, sick, just imagine." https://twitter.com/Kosutami_Ito/status/1781048272972575199?ref ..read more

So much has changed in the home theater projector market over the past few years. There used to be a handful of big-name brands that you could choose from, and everything else was low-quality. But now, that's no longer the case — and the best proof of that might be the relatively new NOMVDIC P2000 ultra short throw 4K triple-laser projector. NOMVDIC, which is a stylized name that's pronounced just like "nomadic," is a relative newcomer to the UST laser projector space. But the company's P2000 4K triple laser projector is the most impressive UST projector I've tested in the past year. It offer ..read more

ChatGPT is probably the first generative AI product you think of when the genAI topic comes up, and that's because OpenAI was the first to roll out a chatbot that went viral. Microsoft followed with Bing Chat and turned it into Copilot. Google caught up with Bard and later renamed it Gemini. We also have Claude from Anthropic and Perplexity, to name just a few interesting AI projects out there. While that happened, Meta had its own large language model out in the wild, Llama 2. Available as open-source, others could use the model to develop their own AI projects. But it never felt like a Chat ..read more

I'm a longtime iPhone owner currently on the 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro, and I plan to upgrade to an iPhone 16 this fall. For the first time, I'm considering not going Pro. Considering my current needs, the regular model should suit me just fine, and I can save plenty of money by getting one. But I will say that exclusive AI features coming to the iPhone 16 Pros might make me reconsider. I'm also inclined to try the Plus size, which would also be a first for me. I usually avoid Apple's 6.7-inch models, but I have two good reasons to upgrade this year. The 6.1-inch screen feels increasingly smalle ..read more

AirPlay in hotel rooms is one of the top iPhone features that was announced with iOS 17. While this function was released with iOS 17.3, it didn't actually start working until now. In a press release, Apple announced that guests staying at select properties from IHG Hotels & Resorts can use AirPlay to privately and securely stream their favorite shows and movies on Apple TV+ and other popular streaming services, listen to personal playlists on Apple Music or other platforms, view vacation photos, practice a presentation, play fun games on Apple Arcade, or get a workout or meditation in wi ..read more

Apple's latest lineup of MacBook Pro models is the most powerful crop of laptops that the company has ever created. But if you dive into the benchmarks a bit, the M3 MacBook Pro line isn't really all that much more powerful than the M2 MacBook Pro lineup from Apple. With that in mind, and since the previous-generation models are all on sale with discounts of up to $300 off, it's definitely a good idea to save some cash and pick up an M2 model right now. Prices start at $1,049.99 instead of $1,299 for the M2 MacBook Pro with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. Or, if you want to upgrade to the 512GB m ..read more
