Google Photos is introducing an Android update focused on faster editing and improved video controls. The changes center on a one-tap AI editing option and long-requested playback speed settings, both starting to appear now. The update adds an “AI Enhance” button built to streamline photo edits. Instead of working through multiple sliders, it applies automatic changes to lighting and contrast in a single tap, reducing hands-on tweaking while still improving image quality. It also brings video speed options into the app, letting users control how fast clips play without leaving Google Photos. That expands the app beyond storage into a…
If you’ve ever scrolled through the PlayStation Store and stumbled across some games with an oddly familiar title, characters, or graphics, but only with cheap reskins and almost no originality, Sony has finally heard you. The company has quietly wiped the entire catalogs of three publishers from the PlayStation Store: GoGame Console Publisher, VRCForge Studios, and Welding Byte. The removals were first potted on PSNProfiles, including popular titles such as Urban Driver Simulator, Water Blast Shooter – Wet Gun, and Supermarket CEO Simulator (via EuroGamer).

What exactly is Intel’s Serpent Lake chip? On the CPU side, the design reportedly packs eight performance and sixteen efficiency cores, drawn from Intel’s Griffin Cove…
Samsung’s latest Weather update puts the focus where it matters right now, pollen. With allergy season ramping up, the app now shows what’s actually in the air so you can react before symptoms hit. Version 1.7.30.8 changes how that data appears. Instead of a generic icon, you now get separate categories for tree, grass, and ragweed, making it easier to read conditions without digging deeper. If you deal with seasonal allergies, the type of trigger matters as much as the intensity, and now that detail sits front and center. Samsung also reworks how severity shows up, replacing a color scale…

AI coding tools were supposed to make software development faster and easier. They did, but maybe a little too well. People are writing code faster than ever before, and this has created a whole new set of problems for companies. According to The New York Times, one financial services company started using Cursor, an AI coding tool, and went from producing 25,000 to 250,000 lines of code per month. That sounds like a win, but it created a backlog of one million lines of unreviewed code. “The sheer amount of code being delivered, and the increase in vulnerabilities, is something…
