Instagram has resolved a security issue that allowed several users’ accounts to get hacked. The attack appeared to rely on tricking Meta’s own AI-powered support chatbot into granting access to a victim’s account. Over the weekend, several users on Reddit claimed that their Instagram accounts had been compromised, and a number of users on X warned of similar account hijackings. The compromised accounts include the Instagram handle for the Obama-era White House, which appears to have been inactive since 2017; and the account of the U.S. Space Force’s chief master sergeant John Bentinvegna. Security researcher Jane Wong said her Instagram…
Sony has introduced a new display technology called True RGB, which aims to significantly improve image quality in premium TVs and create an alternative between OLED and Mini LED.

True RGB is a new TV backlight technology that uses separate red, green and blue (RGB) LEDs to create colors directly at the light source. Unlike Mini LED or QLED, which use a base light and color filters, True RGB creates colors more accurately…

For years, AI assistants have largely been confined to chat interfaces—users ask questions, receive answers, and the interaction ends there. Now, Google seems to be pushing beyond that model with a new system called Gemini Spark, which is currently rolling out to Google AI Ultra subscribers in the United States. Instead of simply responding to prompts, Gemini Spark is designed to handle tasks across apps and services on its own. In practice, this means users could delegate work to the AI and let it execute tasks in the background, even while devices are not actively in use. Google says users…
HBO is well known for building anticipation, but the final trailer for House of the Dragon season 3 may have gone a step further than intended by revealing a major storyline moment right away. The outcome of the highly anticipated Battle of the Gullet—the large-scale naval conflict that opens the season—appears to be essentially confirmed. Rhaenyra Targaryen comes out on top, ultimately taking control of King’s Landing. For readers of George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood, this aligns with the source material. However, for viewers unfamiliar with the books, it may feel like a significant spoiler that would have been…

The first step begins on June 4, when Warzone will be removed from the PS4 and Xbox One digital stores, preventing any…
Rivian has been hinting that traditional smartphone mirroring systems like Apple CarPlay may not be central to the future of its vehicles. The reasoning usually comes down to control of the in-car experience. The core idea behind “CarPlay is obsolete because of AI” goes like this: Modern cars are becoming software platforms, not just displays for your phone. If the vehicle already has a deeply integrated operating system—navigation, media, climate control, charging, vehicle status—then CarPlay becomes less essential. Instead of mirroring your phone’s apps, the car uses its own apps plus a built-in AI assistant. The comments come as Rivian…
