A U.S. federal judge last week handed down a summary judgment in a case brought by tech conglomerate Thomson Reuters against legal tech firm Ross Intelligence. The judge found that Ross’ use of Reuters’ content to train its AI legal research platform infringed on Reuters’ intellectual property. The outcome could have implications for the more than 39 copyright-related AI lawsuits currently working their way through U.S. courthouses. That said, it’s not necessarily a slam dunk for plaintiffs who allege that AI companies violated their IP rights. Ross was accused of using headnotes — summaries of legal decisions — from Westlaw,…
X, the social media site owned by Elon Musk, is blocking links to encrypted messaging platform Signal. The issue was first reported by tech journalist Matt Binder in his substack blog. Just like WhatsApp, which relies on a ”WA.me” URL format for sharing a direct message link, Signal also follows a similar approach to let users click on the “Signal.me” link and directly land in a one-on-one chat. I tried sharing a Signal chat link to my profile on X and got an error message telling me that the post wasn’t sent. Moving over to the direct messages (DM) section,…

Gemini Live offers a more interactive and conversational experience than traditional voice assistants by enabling natural and free-flowing conversations with AI. However, this feature has a significant drawback that may have deterred some early users. Just like in regular conversations, Gemini Live operates entirely by voice. For instance, if you ask, “Who won the Super Bowl?” Gemini Live responds, “The Philadelphia Eagles.” Unfortunately, having that type of conversation becomes challenging in noisy environments and is impossible for individuals with hearing impairments. Android Authority has discovered new strings in the latest Google app beta (version 16.6.23). It shows users could soon…
The RTX 5080 didn’t blow us away in our testing, but there’s no denying that it’s the second fast graphics card in the world, behind Nvidia’s ludicrously-priced RTX 5090 halo card. Still, if you are sitting on a last-generation RTX 4080 Super, or found one at a good price second hand and are weighing up the pros and cons, it’s useful to know how these cards compare. Pricing Unfortunately, we don’t have any good news to share on either card, on either pricing or availability. The RTX 4080 Super initially launched at the start of 2024 with a price tag…
As gaming platforms like Roblox and Minecraft continue to grow in popularity among young children, and with platforms like YouTube consuming hours of their daily screen time, edtech companies face challenges in capturing their attention.

To progress in the game, kids must complete math-related questions, which ensures they remain…
Ever since the 27-inch iMac was discontinued back in 2022, Apple hasn’t said anything about plans to revive it, or launch a successor. Similar is the fate of the iMac Pro, which got the discontinuation treatment in 2022, and has since remained a mystery. But it seems plans for a large-screen all-in-one (AIO) desktop aren’t dead at Apple. In the latest edition of his PowerOn newsletter, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says the company might eventually turn its attention to delivering a super-sized desktop. “The company remains interested in the professional market, though, and it’s planning new Mac Pro and Mac Studio…
