Apple has recently stepped into the world of AI with its new Apple Intelligence features, which aim to compete better against the likes of Samsung's Galaxy AI and Google's Gemini. However, Google is not shy about introducing and sharing its AI features with other companies, especially the iPhone, as it allows the company to gain more momentum in the industry and to adopt it more widely.

For instance, last week, BofA analysts admitted in a dedicated investment note that Tesla might see potential upside going forward vis-à-vis "the federal regulation of autonomous vehicles and FSD, which aligns with Elon Musk’s push for a national standard for self-driving," adding: "The Trump administration’s approach could create a more favorable regulatory landscape, potentially accelerating Tesla’s Robotaxi […]

Apple was rumored to introduce solid-state buttons with the iPhone 15 lineup, but the change never made it to the real world.

The most intriguing feature of the role-playing game by Gamera Interactive is definitely its combat system inspired by FromSoftware's Souls series, but labeling the game as a simple isometric Soul would be a disservice, as it has a lot to offer besides its involving combat system which comes together really well, despite some issues here and […]
Being a recent game, there won't be any need for an Elden Ring remaster anytime soon, but this isn't stopping fans from attempting to develop so using the latest technology and game engines. Earlier this month, Konarlin shared a video showcasing an impressive Unreal Engine 5-powered fan-made recreation of the popular action role-playing game developed by FromSoftware, going over the process from concept to actual creation, which looks better than the original game thanks to higher quality textures and more. The end results are extremely impressive, even more so considering this is a fan-made solo project developed in a relatively […]
