Fervo's deal with Google could expand to 1 gigawatt of geothermal power, enough to supply a very large AI data center in Utah.

The DOJ proved to the court that Google acted illegally, but it won't get the big win it wanted.

MrBeast will feature Gemini, Google Health, and the Fitbit Air in upcoming videos as part of a multi-year partnership with Google. The deal will kick off with a video featuring Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson turning to Gemini for wilderness survival advice: First up on September 5 is a new MrBeast video following Jimmy and his crew […]

US District Court Judge Leonie Brinkema declined the Justice Department's request to make Google sell off parts of its ad tech business, accepting milder remedies to restore competition to markets it illegally monopolized for years. Brinkema said she would adopt most of the behavioral changes proposed by the parties, with some modifications. But those won't […]

When Google ignominiously exited the European thermostat market last year, it pointed its customers to Tado. This week, the German-based smart home company is launching its Smart Thermostat X (2nd gen), and aiming to attract European Nest users who haven't already jumped ship. Google shutting down the servers for its 1st- and 2nd-gen thermostats drove […]

The Nordic country says wearable camera headsets need to be regulated given their privacy risks.

Comcast has added motion detection as a feature to its wireless routers: The feature sends push notifications to users when motion is detected near a connected device, such as a TV or printer. It has different settings for when people are home, asleep, or away. The Xfinity app also lets users see live motion activity and a feed of recent activity. Comcast acknowledges that the system has some limitations. Home size, layout, building materials, and the placement of the router and connected devices can all affect its ability to detect motion. Comcast says it does not guarantee its performance...

Meet the AI police who can make or break careers—in publishing and beyond.

While some of the features see Google playing catch-up to Apple, which already offers similar features for iPhone users, others specifically leverage Gemini to provide various improvements.

At 5:21 p.m. Eastern on Friday, June 12, Anthropic received a United States government directive. By nightfall, two of the most capable artificial-intelligence models in the world had gone dark after a Commerce Department export-control directive prompted Anthropic to take them offline worldwide. The directive required Anthropic to prevent access to Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether that person was inside or outside the United States. It extended even to Anthropic's own foreign-national employees. Because the company had no reliable way to verify every user's nationality in real time, it suspended both models for everyone . The controls remained in place until June 30. On July 1, Anthropic restored Fable globally. Mythos took a narrower path: after government approval on June 26, access returned to a set of United States organizations while Anthropic continued coordinating with the government over broader domestic and international access. That sounds like a short outage with a happy ending. It was neither. I have spent years building systems where a dependency going unavailable is not an abstraction. Once software is woven into a product or an operating process, access to it becomes part of the architecture. A model that can be withdrawn immediately under a company-specific determination and factual rationale no customer could have read is no longer only a technical dependency. It is a bet on unpublished policy. The United States needs to govern frontier A.I. It also needs companies, researchers, investors, and customers to know what the rules are before the government enforces them. June showed how far apart those two needs remain. The security concern was real The government's concern was not invented. Fable and Mythos shared the same underlying model, but Fable was released with strong safeguards for general use while Mythos, with fewer safeguards, went only to a small group of defensive-cybersecurity partners. Anthropic says My

With Google Pics, Google is pushing deeper into the creative software market dominated by Canva and Adobe, but with a distinctly AI-first approach.

This is interesting: The records describe a force-generation mechanism for several General Staff components, including the GRU, Main Operational Directorate, and 8th Directorate, which is associated with protected communications, cryptography, and information security. […] The reporting also linked a 2024 Department No. 4 graduate, Aleksei Kondrashov, to Military Unit 74455, widely known as Sandworm. That unit has been associated with destructive cyber activity against Ukraine and other targets, including the 2017 NotPetya attack. The reports do not establish that every listed graduate participated in a named operation; assignments should therefore be described as reported unit placements, not proof of individual operational involvement...
