MSI's Claw 8 EX AI+ handheld comes out on June 23 MSI's Claw 8 EX AI+ handheld comes out on June 23 The premium gaming handheld's price is expected to be around $1,500. A new wave of premium handhelds is on the way and MSI's upcoming Claw 8 EX AI+ is leading the charge. The company revealed its latest handheld during a hands-on event at its headquarters in Taipei, Taiwan before Computex 2026. The Claw 8 EX AI+ will follow up MSI's previous handhelds introduced in 2024 that start at around $800, but is reportedly going to cost as much as $1,500 . It comes out on June 23.

Ford and GM are backing away from electric vehicles and moving into the battery storage business. And it all comes back to AI. Automakers make cars--it's in the name. But lately, politics, current events, and Wall Street's latest preoccupation, artificial intelligence, have them looking a lot more like energy companies. The pivot, analysts say, could give US auto manufacturers struggling through a transition to electric vehicles an easier path over the next few years. Whether it works will come down to the same technology that automakers once promised would power the majority of their lineups: batteries .

When you purchase through links in our articles, we may earn a small commission. Internxt offers 10TB of lifetime cloud storage with strong privacy protections for 87% off. Cloud storage is one of those things that starts cheap and slowly turns into another monthly bill. If you're tired of paying just to keep your files accessible, a lifetime plan like this could change the equation. Internxt is offering a 10TB lifetime subscription for $349.99 (MSRP $2,900), a significant departure from the typical subscription model used by most cloud providers.

The AI industry's demand for memory, storage and powerful chips has finally come for the Mac mini . Apple has stopped selling its cheapest $599 model of the Mac mini, based on changes to the company's store page spotted by . Only configurations that come with at least 512GB of storage and up are available, which means the Mac mini now effectively starts at $799. The tiny desktop's popular use as a home for local AI agents likely played a part in the change. Engadget has contacted Apple for confirmation that it's discontinuing the entry-level Mac mini.

You don't have to upload your video to the cloud or pay a monthly fee to secure your home. In the age of state surveillance, with big tech trampling our data privacy rights and gouging us for every penny, there are plenty of reasons to keep your security camera footage local. Whether you want to save money or ensure your video doesn't end up in the hands of persons (or AI) unknown, subscription-free security cameras are the way to go. The good news is that locally recording security cameras are better than ever. I've been testing security cameras for a decade, and the gap between the best cloud-connected and local cameras is closing. You don't necessarily have to give up the best features to shirk that subscription anymore.

Look-up tables(LUTs)-based methods have recently shown enormous potential in image restoration tasks, which are capable of significantly accelerating the inference. However, the size of LUT exhibits exponential growth with the convolution kernel size, creating a storage bottleneck for its broader application on edge devices. Here, we address the storage explosion challenge to promote the capacity of mapping the complex CNN models by LUT. We introduce an innovative separable mapping strategy to achieve over $7\times$ storage reduction, transforming the storage from exponential dependence on kernel size to a linear relationship. Moreover, we design a dynamic discretization mechanism to decompose the activation and compress the quantization scale that further shrinks the LUT storage by $4.48\times$. As a result, the storage requirement of our proposed TinyLUT is around 4.1\% of MuLUT-SDY-X2 and amenable to on-chip cache, yielding competitive accuracy with over $5\times$ lower inference latency on Raspberry 4B than FSRCNN. Our proposed TinyLUT enables superior inference speed on edge devices with new state-of-the-art accuracy on both of image super-resolution and denoising, showcasing the potential of applying this method to various image restoration tasks at the edge.

Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) is an effective method for adapting pre-trained vision models to downstream tasks by tuning a small subset of parameters. Among PEFT methods, sparse tuning achieves superior performance by only adjusting the weights most relevant to downstream tasks, rather than densely tuning the whole weight matrix. However, this performance improvement has been accompanied by increases in memory usage, which stems from two factors, i.e., the storage of the whole weight matrix as learnable parameters in the optimizer and the additional storage of tunable weight indexes. In this paper, we propose a method named SNELL (Sparse tuning with kerNELized LoRA) for sparse tuning with low memory usage. To achieve low memory usage, SNELL decomposes the tunable matrix for sparsification into two learnable low-rank matrices, saving from the costly storage of the whole original matrix. A competition-based sparsification mechanism is further proposed to avoid the storage of tunable weight indexes. To maintain the effectiveness of sparse tuning with low-rank matrices, we extend the low-rank decomposition by applying nonlinear kernel functions to the whole-matrix merging. Consequently, we gain an increase in the rank of the merged matrix, enhancing the ability of SNELL in adapting the pre-trained models to downstream tasks. Extensive experiments on multiple downstream tasks show that SNELL achieves state-of-the-art performance with low memory usage, endowing PEFT with sparse tuning to large-scale models.
