<\/a><\/p>\nNew claimants have come forward to take legal action against Elon Musk\u2019s company xAI after the Labour MP Jess Asato\u00a0launched a test case against the firm<\/a> over demeaning sexualised material created by its Grok AI tool. A handful of complainants contacted Asato\u2019s lawyer on Thursday in response to coverage of the MP\u2019s decision to sue Musk\u2019s company for damages over its creation and circulation of fake images of her in a bikini and an AI-created video that she said showed her \u201cbeing chloroformed and prepared for a sexual assault\u201d. Guardian\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n According to a report by\u00a0The Information, Apple is partnering with Google and Nvidia to power the next-generation, AI-infused Siri. But it\u2019s not just a normal partnership; Apple will strongly rely on Nvidia\u2019s Blackwell chips and Google\u2019s Gemini AI model.<\/p>\n It\u2019s an interesting shift in strategy as Apple is usually known for either diversifying or taking the development of its products in-house. However, the latest report suggests that some Siri queries will run on Google Cloud on a licensed version of Gemini. GSM Arena\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n Sideloading, or the ability to install apps using APK files from outside of the Google Play Store, has been fundamental to Android since its early days. But after almost two decades, Google wants to change it, citing security concerns from unverified apps. The Android developer community, however, has fiercely opposed\u00a0Android\u2019s new sideloading rules<\/a>, arguing they run counter to practices that serve users\u2019 best interests. Now, a slew of popular apps have started to resist the upcoming policy and are informing users about the alternatives. NewPipe, one of the most popular open-source clients for watching YouTube without ads on Android<\/a>, is starting to push back against Google\u2019s proposed changes to sideloading. Android Authority\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n Nintendo is planning to launch versions of Switch 2 hardware in the EU that will let users easily replace the battery. To meet its obligations from a new EU regulation that\u2019s set to go into effect on February 18th, 2027, Nintendo says\u00a0on its website<\/a> that it is \u201cimplementing measures to comply with these requirements by preparing versions of products to meet the Regulation.\u201d Starting from February 2027, EU rules mandate that many types of gadgets, including portable game consoles, must allow users to relatively easily remove and replace their batteries. The Verge<\/a><\/p>\n New findings suggest that the first wave of Googlebook machines could include somewhere around eight new laptops with a variety of chipsets from Intel, MediaTek, and Snapdragon all on display. These chipsets themselves are not surprising. Intel, MediaTek, and Qualcomm all confirmed that their chips would be used in Googlebook products, but what is interesting is that we might see one of each right out of the gate. ChromeUnboxed<\/a> dug up baseboards for eight distinct devices that all appear to be Googlebooks. 9to5Google\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n When Naomi Gleit joined Meta nearly 20 years ago, she was the firm\u2019s 29th employee. Today, she is its longest serving staff member \u2013 apart, that is, from founder Mark Zuckerberg. Since joining him at the age of 21, Gleit has watched a start-up called Facebook transform into a tech giant called Meta, and weathered many storms and controversies along the way. Now head of product, she told the BBC working at Meta was her \u201cdream job\u201d \u2013 even if, two decades ago, her family took some persuading that she\u2019d made the right decision. \u201cMy mom was very disappointed, she wanted me to work for Lehman Brothers,\u201d she laughs.
