OpenAI and Disney signed a three-year licensing deal that lets ChatGPT and Sora generate images and videos. Project Aura from Xreal will use Android XR, the same OS as on the Galaxy XR, but in a glasses form factor. Are we getting to the point of no return where AI generated video and images will be indistinguishable from real video and images? And what are RAM prices soaring and what can consumers expect to pay for memory in the upcoming year?

Meta Platforms Inc. is planning significant budget cuts as high as 30%, for its metaverse initiative. Why has Netflix killed the ability to cast content from your phone to most TVs and streaming devices? YouTube said it will take steps to comply with Australia’s ban on allowing users of its service who are younger than 16, but doesn’t believe it should be considered a social media platform. TikTok introduced a “Nearby Feed” in the U.K., France, Italy, and Germany, giving users a location-based stream of local posts.

Google has updated Quick Share to work with Apple’s Airdrop. Does Nvidia’s strong earnings report this week mean that AI’s bubble is about to burst. Flock’s cloud-connected cameras are a popular tool for American police departments to capture images of vehicles and cross-reference them against national and state crime databases. But their use creates a number of privacy concerns as Shannon Morse explains. Swatch’s AI‑DADA lets owners prompt AI‑DADA with their own idea, and gives them a unique-to-them watch design.

Trish Hershberger is here with a first hand review of Asus’s ROG Xbox Ally X handheld gaming machine. Is it a portable Xbox Series, a handheld gaming PC, or does it even matter? Plus companies note a rise in fraudulent and fake expense receipts with the advent of generative AI.
