Nvidia’s next-gen B200 Blackwell chip is 'world's most powerful' for AI
|
Nvidia is aiming to cement its AI dominance with the new B200 'Blackwell' AI chip, which the company unveiled on Monday
|
Nvidia said its new flagship B200 chip can perform tasks 30 times faster than its predecessor, and it expects the likes of Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI to use it in cloud-computing services and for their own AI technologies. “Generative AI is the defining technology of our time [and] Blackwell is the engine to power this new industrial revolution,” Nvidia said. The U.S. giant also showed off a new set of software tools, called microservices, aimed at improving system efficiency so that a business can incorporate an AI model into its work more easily. Additionally, Nvidia outlined a new series of chips for creating humanoid robots, a fast-growing sector that has seen some impressive breakthroughs recently ... |

OpenAI’s latest Sora video is as stunning as it is weird
|
Text-to-video technology is making rapid improvements — just take a look at the latest footage created by OpenAI's incredible Sora tool |
OpenAI left many jaws on the floor last month when it shared the first footage made by Sora, its AI-powered text-to-video generator. The quality, while not perfect, was extraordinary, and many wondered about the kind of transformational impact that such technology will have on the creative industries, including Hollywood. OpenAI has yet to release Sora to the public — that’s expected to happen later this year — but the company is happy to continue impressing everyone by dropping regular Sora-generated videos into its social media feeds. The latest one to land looks like a clip from a fantasy movie and was generated from the text prompt: “An elephant made of leaves running in the jungle” ... |

What they don’t tell you about wearing a camera on your face
|
'We're all used to taking photos with our phones. But what about using a camera that's strapped to your face? It's unique, weird, and wonderful' |
I’ve been wearing the Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses for a few weeks now and, therefore, have lived life with a camera on my face. Being able to capture that cool first-person viewpoint with the camera was one of the things that attracted me to these glasses, and I’ve had fun with it so far. But there’s a lot more to it that I simply hadn’t thought about prior to actually snapping photos. It turns out that taking photos with the Ray-Ban Meta’s camera is dramatically different from taking photos with your phone in ways that I just didn’t expect. This has unexpectedly forced me to rethink how I take photos ... |

SMARTWATCH REVIEW by Mark Jansen |
I reviewed Garmin’s newest fitness watch. Here’s why it’s a must-buy
|
Garmin's latest smartwatch is aimed primarily at runners, and offers lots of features and analytics that dive deep into your performance
|
Adding a new model to an existing range can be tricky, but that’s just what Garmin is trying to do with the Forerunner 165. Situated between the budget Forerunner 65 and midrange Forerunner 265, the Forerunner 165 is a reasonably priced smartwatch that focuses on providing everything a runner needs to keep moving. I took the Garmin Forerunner 165 for a spin for a few weeks, and I’m pleased to report that Garmin’s latest running watch is an excellent addition to its roster — and a must-buy if you want a fitness watch at a more reasonable price. The display is a 1.2-inch circular OLED panel, and it’s gorgeous. The colors are bright and vivid, and the blacks are dark ... |
