The iconic sign of the games will take off into the sky every night, landing again at 2 a.m., for the length of the Paris Olympics. But it's tethered to the ground the whole time.
Apple today seeded new fourth betas of upcoming iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 updates to developers for testing purposes, with the software coming a few days after Apple initially released the betas. It is not clear what is different with the original beta 4 software (build (22A5316j) and the new beta 4 software (build (22A5316k), but the update is available to all developers.
The Boys may be one season away from ending but it's not done caking your screens with blood and torn muscle tissue. Cast member Jensen Ackles who plays Soldier Boy on The Boys revealed at the San Diego Comic-Con that Amazon will produce a prequel of the superhero show called Vought Rising.
The new prequel will take place in the 1950s during the early days of the evil Vought empire, the mega conglomerate that runs the entire superhero industry in The Boys' universe. The new series will show the early exploits of characters like Soldier Boy and the almost-immortal Nazi supe Stormfront played by Aya Cash. The story will revolve around some kind of "twisted murder mystery about the origins of Vought," according to executive producer Eric Kripke and showrunner and executive producer Paul Grellong.
Vought Rising sounds like a reimagining of Watchmen without the brooding and self-importance. That's not to say Watchmen is bad. Those things and its brutal honesty about the nature of its characters are what makes it great but would it kill Rorschach to make just one curse-laden pop culture reference?
The Boys has become Amazon's Game of Thrones. Even when the main series ends, it won't be the last we hear from it. The same Comic-Con panel also revealed its college themed spinoff Gen V is getting another season, according to GamesRadar . There's also another spinoff in development called The Boys: Mexico
Microsoft has started beta testing a new feature that lets you "see your Android phone in File Explorer" and "wirelessly browse through all your folders and files, including media that is on your Android phone."
In fact, the process is incredibly easy—setup takes just a few minutes. Here's how to do it, step-by-step, complete with a video walkthrough towards the end.
OpenAI announced a new AI-powered search engine prototype called SearchGPT. It's described SearchGPT as "a temporary prototype of new AI search features that give you fast and timely answers with clear and relevant sources." The company plans to test out the product with 10,000 initial users, then roll it into ChatGPT after gathering feedback.
It's a spicy time to launch AI-powered search engines. Last month, Perplexity faced criticism for summarizing stories from Forbes and Wired without adequate attribution or backlinks to the publications. It also ignored robots.txt, a way for websites to tell crawlers that scrape data to back off. Earlier this week, Wired publisher Condé Nast reportedly sent a cease-and-desist letter to Perplexity and accused it of plagiarism. Also: see the Reddit drama earlier this week.
SearchGPT categorizes its results with short descriptions and visuals, but according to some early users, just like its chatbot forebears, accuracy is… lacking.
