I am speaking this sentence aloud into Rambler, Google's new AI-powered dictation keyboard feature. I'm trying to write some of this review hands-free with Rambler because there is a time crunch, and so my ability to jot down my thoughts without worrying too much about speaking very cleanly is extremely helpful. Before you run away, let me assure you I have returned to typing on my laptop. A lot of the new features on Google's latest flagship phones are rooted in the idea that AI can help you do things better. Whether it's in choosing what moments in a scene to capture, what verbal utterances to delete in a message or how to fill in the details of a faraway subject in a photo, the Pixel 11 Pro's new AI tools are here to edit you or fill in gaps.

Microsoft is stepping up the pressure on Windows 10 users by winding down support for Microsoft 365 Apps on Windows 10, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. After August 2026, Microsoft 365 Apps on Windows 10 will no longer receive new features, and only receive security updates for customers with an active Office subscription. Devices running Microsoft 365 Apps on Windows 10 will receive feature updates and Copilot support (where eligible) until Version 2608 is released.

The luxury automaker is beaming a ad into its cars. What does a roughly $100,000 BMW 7 Series get you? With a few taps on the sedan's massive touch screen, you can play or let the car park itself. Last week, BMW added a new feature to its infotainment system: When drivers start up their car, they are greeted by the following message: "Surprise! Spider-Man just dropped on your BMW!" Click on the prompt, which appears in most BMWs made after 2020, and the touch screen is taken over by a commercial for, the latest movie in the Marvel franchise.

Here's why you shouldn't skip it Windows 11 26H2 will arrive in October 2026 as a tiny enablement update. Here's why you'll want to install it despite few new features. The next major update for Windows 11, called version 26H2 (which stands for "second half of 2026"), is coming in October 2026.

Try One of macOS 27's Best Features Right Now Apple's fall macOS release will let you build Shortcuts by typing what you want to happen. But Claude Code and Codex users don't have to wait. Buried deep inside everything announced at WWDC this year was something I, an Apple Shortcuts enthusiast, can't wait to try: the ability to make Apple Shortcuts using generative artificial intelligence. In macOS 27, you'll be able to just type what you want a shortcut to do, and the app will build it. Anyone who builds shortcuts regularly knows the process of doing so can be tedious, even if the end results save you a lot of time.

Apple has announced the latest version of macOS. It's all about the reintroduction of Siri, which is now accessible from anywhere on the Mac desktop. The official name of the Mac's operating system is macOS 27 Golden Gate, keeping the California naming scheme around. This year's update is focused on the relaunched Siri (now known as Siri AI), which really strives to transform into a proper AI chatbot along the lines of ChatGPT or Google Gemini--with a unique Apple twist. Is Your Mac Compatible With macOS Golden Gate?

You can currently use the Photos app across Apple's operating systems to adjust things like saturation and contrast, apply filters, crop photos or use AI to remove objects with the Clean Up tool . Clean Up will apparently be one of several Apple Intelligence Tools after these new updates roll out, writes. Along with Clean Up, users will be able to use Extend to expand the background of the photo with generative AI, Enhance to automatically improve things like lighting and image quality and Reframe to shift the perspective of a photo after it's taken, primarily for Apple's spatial photos. The new features, if released, will bring Apple's photo-editing tools more in line with competitors like Google and Samsung, though both companies still lap Apple in their willingness to create entirely generated images. Google's Magic Editor feature, which debuted in 2023, still takes the cake in terms of giving users leeway to radically add to and change their photos.

The app reads your email inbox and your meeting calendar, then gives you a short audio summary. It can help you spend less time scrolling, but of course, there are privacy drawbacks to consider.

Learning with streaming data has attracted much attention during the past few years.Though most studies consider data stream with fixed features, in real practice the features may be evolvable. For example, features of data gathered by limited lifespan sensors will change when these sensors are substituted by new ones. In this paper, we propose a novel learning paradigm: Feature Evolvable Streaming Learning where old features would vanish and new features would occur. Rather than relying on only the current features, we attempt to recover the vanished features and exploit it to improve performance. Specifically, we learn two models from the recovered features and the current features, respectively. To benefit from the recovered features, we develop two ensemble methods. In the first method, we combine the predictions from two models and theoretically show that with the assistance of old features, the performance on new features can be improved. In the second approach, we dynamically select the best single prediction and establish a better performance guarantee when the best model switches.

Claude can now generate visuals when producing a response. With Claude enjoying a moment of newfound popularity among regular people, Anthropic is previewing an update designed to make its chatbot better at explaining some concepts. Starting today, Claude can generate charts and diagrams as part of its responses, either when asked directly or when it decides visuals might be helpful to the user. For example, try asking Claude what's the best way to fold a paper plane. Where previously it was limited to text, now it can show you step by step how to fold a Nakamura lock plane .
