A lot of my friends spent too many hours bouncing back and forth between ChatGPT and Photoshop, trying to turn an idea into a vision. Adobe just closed that gap. The company has launched a single plugin that can pull over 70 of its creative and productivity tools directly into your chat with ChatGPT. So what can you actually do with this plugin? Instead of separate Adobe connectors like before, ChatGPT users now get one unified plugin that covers a variety of Adobe tools, including Photoshop, Premiere, Firefly, and Lightroom, among others. You can simply describe what you want, and…
For months, reports have suggested that OpenAI’s first hardware product would be a screen-free smart speaker designed to act more like an AI companion. We already knew it could understand its surroundings, be carried around the home, and proactively help users. A new Bloomberg report now gives us a clearer picture of what the device may actually look like. As per the report, OpenAI’s first gadget will be shaped like a doughnut and measure about the same size as a hockey puck. You will be able to carry it between rooms or leave it nearby on whatever surface is convenient.…
Nintendo’s live-action Legend of Zelda movie is set to hit theaters on April 30, 2027, and though we’ve seen official images of Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Link and Bo Bragason as Zelda, there’s still a lot of mystery surrounding the film. We don’t know which game, if any, the movie is adapting; we don’t know if Link will talk; we don’t know if Tingle will be in it. According to a new report from Deadline, however, we do know who will play Ganondorf: Uli Latukefu, who has appeared in Young Rock (as a younger version of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson), Black Adam, MaXXXine,…
Handing a child their first bit of spending freedom usually involves hard cash or a credit/debit card. But Google wants to make that process a little more convenient with a digital method. Google Wallet is introducing a new payment option, complete with a parental kill switch. Parents in the US can now establish a dedicated Wallet balance for supervised children and teenagers under 18. Money added to that balance can be spent through an eligible Android phone or Wear OS smartwatch anywhere contactless Visa payments are accepted, without requiring the child to have a conventional bank account. Parents decide how…
Apple can usually make suppliers bend the knee. It buys components in volumes few consumer technology brands can match and has built a supply chain that rivals spend decades trying to copy. However, that leverage has now run into a memory manufacturer willing to say no. Apple reportedly approached China’s CXMT as an additional DRAM supplier and asked for lower prices. CXMT instead quoted figures comparable to or even higher than Samsung and SK Hynix. Huawei, Xiaomi, and other Chinese manufacturers have already locked up much of its output through higher-priced long-term deals, leaving the company with little reason to…
Onimusha: Way of the Sword is the latest game to grace the cover of Game Informer, and we traveled all the way to Osaka, Japan, to play the game for hours in Capcom’s HQ, interview the developers making it, and learn how the team was returning to this samurai action franchise that hasn’t had a new release in 20 years. As part of that trip, we got to see a new section of Capcom’s samurai action game and meet one of its creepier villains: the mad scientist Dokyo. Here’s how that underground lab level, and Dokyo herself, came to be: We’ll be diving deeper into…
OpenAI has today announced a bunch of meaningful changes to ChatGPT across free and paid tiers. The biggest changes are reserved for users with a free account. They can now have unrestricted chats without any limit hits. Moreover, the default conversation model has been updated to GPT 5.6 Luna. Free accounts are also getting access to a new think button, which shifts the conversation into a thinking mode for queries that need in-depth reasoning and knowledge hunting. For the unaware, the Luna model is equivalent to the “nano” series of models before the new naming scheme arrived with the GPT-5.6…
Onimusha: Way of the Sword launches next month on September 4 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via the Epic Games Store and Steam. It will mark the first game in Capcom’s samurai action series in 20 years, and brings players to real-life locations in Kyoto, albeit through the lens of Japan’s early Edo period. A new trailer released by Capcom today features some of that Kyoto, as well as new gameplay footage highlighting a boss fight against the treacherous Rasho-gan. If you’re a Game Informer subscriber, you likely already know that Onimusha: Way of the…
Ford’s been teasing a genuinely affordable electric truck for what feels like forever, and after the initial few months, I stopped waiting for it, much less the less-than-$30,000 anticipated price. Turns out Ford didn’t just hit that target; it beat it. What’s even more interesting is that the truck finally has an official name to go with the price. So what’s it called? It’s called Ford Fathom, and it starts at $28,350. Add a $1,595 destination fee, and the truck comes home at $29,945, which is just under Ford’s long-promised $30K cap. That positions it directly against the upcoming Slate…
Nintendo has released its latest financial earnings report, covering the first quarter of the fiscal year, which encompasses April through June 2026. In it, the company has revealed that digital sales revenue is up 90% year-over-year, that the Switch 2 sold nearly 4 million units in those three months, and that, unsurprisingly, Mario Kart World continues to be the best-selling game on the console. According to Nintendo, digital sales totaled 132.7 billion yen (or roughly $837 million), up 90% year-on-year, “mainly due to an increase in sales of downloadable versions of packaged software.” This figure arrives just weeks after Sony announced…
