Google has rolled out its latest experimental search feature on Chrome, Firefox and the Google app browser to hundreds of millions of users. "AI Overviews" saves you clicking on links by using generative AI—the same technology that powers rival product ChatGPT—to provide summaries of the search results. Ask "how to keep bananas fresh for longer" and it uses AI to generate a useful summary of tips such as storing them in a cool, dark place and away from other fruits like apples.

Cruise's trouble-ridden robotaxis are joining Uber's ride-hailing service next year as part of a multiyear partnership bringing together two companies that once appeared poised to compete for passengers.

Apple will allow iPhone and iPad users in the European Union delete the App Store or its Safari browser, the tech giant told developers on Thursday.

A Southern California woman fed up with her packages getting stolen out of her post office box sent an Apple AirTag to the address and cleverly tracked down the suspected thief, police said.

Video: AppleInsider has learned exclusive new details regarding the upgraded camera system and rumored capture button on the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro. Here's what you need to know.

Apple is responding to EU criticism about alternative browser choices by simplifying selection, and in addition it's adding more options over user control of other default apps.

Apple is working on technology that could allow you to ditch the expensive Zeiss inserts needed to correct vision issues on the Apple Vision Pro. Future headsets could dynamically change focus based on what you're looking at.

Apple has released a pair of videos, promoting the new features of the video editing tool Final Cut Pro on both Mac and iPad.

Apple Cash, a popular payment service, offers a seamless experience within the iOS Messages app. However, identity verification changes are coming for users.

An academic with a sideline in TikTok videos about marketing scams claims Apple defrauded her over an iPad discount — despite her getting precisely the deal she was promised and should have expected.

Apple has released the fourth developer beta for the latest AirPods Pro 2 software, which lets testers try the nod and shake feature.

As the use of Facial Recognition Payment Technology (FRPT) grows, taken up by retailers, governments, hotels and others, some consumers do not completely trust its use say QUT researchers.

Training deep learning models on large datasets is essential for their success; however, these datasets often contain label noise, which can significantly decrease the classification performance on test datasets.

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) in the past decade has greatly enhanced the ability of wearable devices to process complex data. Among them, machine learning—a major category of AI algorithms—and its important branch, deep learning, are the main thrust of this wave of AI.

Though 2023 was a relatively slow year for new wind power deployment in the United States, the industry continues to see growth, solid performance, expanding supply chains, and attractive prices, according to a report prepared for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab).

Characterized by their intricate patterns and hierarchical designs, lattice structures hold immense potential for revolutionizing industries ranging from aerospace to biomedical engineering, due to their versatility and customizability. However, the complexity of these structures and the vast design space they encompass have posed significant hurdles for engineers and scientists, and traditional methods of design exploration and optimization often fall short when faced with the sheer magnitude of possibilities within the lattice-design landscape.

In the ever-evolving field of robotics, a groundbreaking approach has emerged, revolutionizing how robots perceive, navigate, and interact with their environments. This new frontier, known as brain-inspired navigation technology, integrates insights from neuroscience into robotics, offering enhanced capabilities and efficiency.

Your early morning run could soon help harvest enough electricity to power your wearable devices, thanks to a new nanotechnology developed at the University of Surrey.

The narrative around the infiltration of artificial intelligence (AI) into our professional lives is often tinged with fear. Can a computer do what I do faster and more cheaply? Will my skills become obsolete? What if a robot takes my job?

A research team has developed a computer vision technique that can perform dichotomous image segmentation, high-resolution salient object detection, and concealed object detection in the same framework. Their novel bilateral reference framework (BiRefNet) is able to capture tiny-pixel features and holds potential for a wide range of practical computer vision applications.
