OpenAI and Jony Ive face significant technical challenges as they work to develop a screen-less, AI-powered device, according to the Financial Times. Back in May, OpenAI acquired io, the device startup founded by the legendary Apple designer with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, for $6.5 billion.

The FT now says that OpenAI and Ive aim to create “a palm-sized device without a…

If you don’t work in code, it can be hard to notice how much things are changing, but GPT-5 and Gemini 2.5 have made a whole new set of developer tricks possible to automate, and last week Sonnet 2.4 did it again. At the same time, other skills are progressing more slowly. If you are using AI to write emails, you’re probably getting the same value out of it you did a year ago. Even when the model gets better, the product doesn’t always benefit — particularly when the product is a chatbot…

The heat in London had become unbearable this summer for my partner and me. The air was heavy, the Tube felt like a furnace, and my mind was equally overheated.

Travel usually means obsessively researching hotels, mapping out the “best” routes, and checking review scores like our sanity depends on it.…
