How to Use Apple's Image Playground to Generate AI Art
Amid the flurry of Apple Intelligence features pushed out to iPhones, iPads, and Macs in recent months, AI-powered art generation hasn't been forgotten. Apple has debuted a new AI art maker called Image Playground, ready and waiting to turn your text prompts into pictures. If you're running iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2, or macOS Sequoia 15.2, you'll find Image Playground on your device as a preinstalled app. You can use it for everything from backgrounds for digital invites to cartoon depictions of your friends and relatives. If you can describe it, Image Playground can make it--and here's how to get started.
TรถRF: Time-of-Flight Radiance Fields for Dynamic Scene View Synthesis Supplemental Document
More results are shown in Figure 8 for the StudyBook and Dishwasher scenes, and Figure 10 for the DinoPear scene. Figure 9 also highlights our ability to account for multi-path interference. We also show animated results and comparisons for all sequences on our website. To evaluate a more practical camera setup than our prototype, we captured one real-world sequence (the Dishwasher scene) with a standard handheld Apple iPhone 12 Pro. This consumer smartphone contains a LIDAR ToF sensor for measuring sparse metric depth, which is processed by ARKit to provide a dense metric depth map video in addition to a captured RGB color video. Unfortunately, the raw measurements are not available from the ARKit SDK; however, if available, in principle our approach could apply.

GUI-Xplore: Empowering Generalizable GUI Agents with One Exploration

GUI agents hold significant potential to enhance the experience and efficiency of human-device interaction. However, current methods face challenges in generalizing across applications (apps) and tasks, primarily due to two fundamental limitations in existing datasets. First, these datasets overlook developer-induced structural variations among apps, limiting the transferability of knowledge across diverse software environments. Second, many of them focus solely on navigation tasks, which restricts their capacity to represent comprehensive software architectures and complex user interactions. To address these challenges, we introduce GUI-Xplore, a dataset meticulously designed to enhance cross-application and cross-task generalization via an exploration-and-reasoning framework. GUI-Xplore integrates pre-recorded exploration videos providing contextual insights, alongside five hierarchically structured downstream tasks designed to comprehensively evaluate GUI agent capabilities. To fully exploit GUI-Xplore's unique features, we propose Xplore-Agent, a GUI agent framework that combines Action-aware GUI Modeling with Graph-Guided Environment Reasoning. Further experiments indicate that Xplore-Agent achieves a 10% improvement over existing methods in unfamiliar environments, yet there remains significant potential for further enhancement towards truly generalizable GUI agents.
The Google Pixel 9 Pro XL is down to its lowest-ever price at Amazon
SAVE 300: As of March 21, the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL is on sale for 1019 at Amazon. This deal saves you 23% on list price. A new phone doesn't have to break the bank, especially if you're looking to buy one outright. And you don't need to wait for Amazon's Spring Sale to officially kick off (March 25) either. Just check out our review to see why we're such big fans.
Benchmarking Multimodal Agents for Open-Ended Tasks in Real Computer Environments
Autonomous agents that accomplish complex computer tasks with minimal human interventions can significantly enhance accessibility and productivity of humancomputer interactions. Existing benchmarks either lack interactive environments or are limited to specific applications/domains, failing to reflect the diversity and complexity of real-world computer use and limiting agent scalability.
Huawei reveals a wide-ass 16:10 foldable with a DeepSeek-powered AI assistant
Because of sanctions that will prevent Huawei's latest foldable from going on sale in the US, many folks who are interested in the handset will never lay eyes on it in person. Still, you might want to get a load of this oddity. The Pura X should maybe have a "wide load" warning that pops up on the back once it's opened up. Per CNBC, the 6.3-inch display has a 16:10 aspect ratio. That means it's wider and more tablet-like than most other phones.
