A robotic arm that sits at the edge of the pool retrieves the scrubber from the water and recharges its battery when cleaning is complete. Mammotion is best known for building robot lawn mowers, having only introduced its first robotic pool cleaner in July 2025, but it's looking to shake up the market with its second effort, now on display at CES. The Mammotion Spino S1 Pro promises nearly hands-off operation, thanks to a pool-side dock with a robotic arm that lifts the scrubber out of the water when its work is done. When you consider that pool robots can easily weigh 30 or 40 pounds when they're full of water, this innovation promises to make that task much easier for pool owners--especially older or less steady individuals--and it sounds like a potential major selling point.

Fujitsu is not a parasite for continuing to profit from government contracts in the wake of the Post Office Horizon scandal, its boss told MPs. European chief executive Paul Patterson said Fujitsu had been given £500m of contract extensions despite its faulty software being at the centre of the huge miscarriage of justice. We are not a parasite, the government has got an option as to whether they wish to extend those contracts or not, he said, adding it would not bid for new business. Patterson also repeatedly refused to say how much Fujitsu would contribute to the £1.8bn redress scheme for victims of the scandal, currently funded by taxpayers. More than 900 sub-postmasters were prosecuted after the faulty Horizon computer system made it look like money was missing from their branch accounts.

Welcome to your first CES edition of TMA, attempting (almost futilely) to distill the biggest product reveals and announcements. Despite two days of briefings and conferences, today is merely day one. However, we've already seen Sony Honda reveal its next car -- and the Afeela 1 isn't yet on sale. We've got a deep dive on what we've seen so far, right here. AMD announced new Ryzen AI 400 laptop processors and updated desktop chips, including the Ryzen 7 9850X3D, with a new focus broadly on AI processing improvements.

The United Kingdom has urged Elon Musk's X to urgently address a proliferation of intimate "deepfake" images created on demand via its built-in AI chatbot Grok, joining a European outcry over a surge in nonconsensual imagery on the platform. The comments, made on Tuesday, follow reporting that Grok, prompted by users, was creating a flood of nonconsensual images of women and minors in skimpy clothing. "No one should have to go through the ordeal of seeing intimate deepfakes of themselves online," Kendall said. "We cannot and will not allow the proliferation of these demeaning and degrading images, which are disproportionately aimed at women and girls." "X needs to deal with this urgently," Kendall said.

'Congratulations, you have achieved nothing of worth ' 'Congratulations, you have achieved nothing of worth ' Friction-maxxing: could less convenience lead to much more happiness? The conveniences of modern life such as Uber Eats and ChatGPT are robbing us of satisfaction - and worse still, infantilising us. But should we really go back to the basics?

"We cannot and will not allow the proliferation of these demeaning and degrading images, which are disproportionately aimed at women and girls," she said.

We're in Las Vegas with two ears and a heart, on the search for the best in immersive open earbuds, portable Bluetooth speakers, powered stereo setups, and more.
