This paper presents HerO 2, Team HUMANE's system for the AVeriTeC shared task at the FEVER-25 workshop. HerO 2 is an enhanced version of HerO, the best-performing open-source model from the previous year's challenge. It improves evidence quality through document summarization and answer reformulation, optimizes veracity prediction via post-training quantization under computational constraints, and enhances overall system performance by integrating updated language model (LM) backbones. HerO 2 ranked second on the leaderboard while achieving the shortest runtime among the top three systems, demonstrating both high efficiency and strong potential for real-world fact verification.

Release date for Apple's first FOLDABLE iPhone leaks online - and it suggests fans don't have long to wait at all

Daily Mail - Science & tech

It is one of the world's leading tech companies but, unlike its rivals, Apple is yet to reveal its own folding phone design. Now, a possible release date for the long-rumoured foldable iPhone has leaked online - and it suggests tech fans don't have long to wait. According to reports from Apple analysts, the foldable iPhone could be launched before the end of 2026. The rumours also suggest that Apple's latest innovation won't come cheap, with an expected price tag of 2,299.

iPhone designer still asks: 'I wonder what Steve Jobs would do?' – despite being told not to

The Guardian

Sir Jony Ive, the innovative designer of Apple's iMac, iPhone and Apple Watch, and a close friend and collaborator of the late Steve Jobs, says he still often asks himself: "I wonder what Steve would do?" Ive told BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs on Sunday that he does so despite the fact that Jobs had specifically told him not to before his death in 2011, aged 56. "He used to say I really don't want you to be thinking'Well, what would Steve do?'," Ives said. The designer, who was born in Chingford, Essex, and moved to San Francisco to work at Apple in 1992, worked alongside the company's co-founder and CEO five years later, when Jobs was called back in to help the struggling company after a period working elsewhere. Jobs' return marked an immediate improvement for Ive, he recalled. "It was remarkable that, despite the limitations of my ability to communicate, Steve understood what I thought and how I felt," Ive said.
