Pixel phones are getting an actual weather app in 2024, with a bit of AI

Google's Weather app features an AI-generated weather report that provides concise summaries, such as "Cold and rainy day, bring your umbrella and hold onto your hat!" The app includes a weather radar for real-time precipitation insights and "Nowcasting" capabilities that predict short-term weather changes. Users can customize the display by rearranging data like UV index and humidity, but the app's data widgets are large, requiring scrolling to see the full daily forecast. The AI summary and 10-day forecast are fixed at the top, limiting personalization. Pollen data is unavailable for allergy sufferers in regions like the US, and some whimsical features, like a frog icon, are missing. Users have criticized the app for requiring saved locations to view weather conditions, integration issues with other Google apps, and aesthetic concerns regarding the weather map and app visibility.

Salesforce CEO claims Microsoft has done a ‘tremendous disservice’ to the AI industry: “Copilot is just the new Microsoft Clippy. It doesn’t work or deliver value.”

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff criticized Microsoft's Copilot AI service, calling it a "tremendous disservice" to the industry and comparing it to Microsoft Clippy, which he believes lacks real value. Despite Microsoft's strong positioning in the AI sector and predictions of becoming the world's most valuable company, Benioff forecasts a decline in Copilot's user base. OpenAI reportedly incurs daily operational costs of up to million for ChatGPT and may face a potential billion loss over the next year, despite receiving .6 billion from investors, including Microsoft and NVIDIA, raising its market capitalization to billion. Analysts speculate that Microsoft could acquire OpenAI within the next three years.

Microsoft Projects Wave of Passkey Signups as Password Attacks Double | PYMNTS.com

Sangeeta Ranjit from Microsoft reported a significant increase in password attacks, with incidents rising to over 7,000 per second and a 58% rise in phishing attempts. She projected that by 2027, the global cost of cybercrime could reach one trillion dollars. Ranjit proposed the adoption of passkeys as a biometric alternative to passwords and indicated that Microsoft plans to phase out password creation for new accounts. Research shows users are frustrated with passwords, and major companies like Mastercard and Visa are adopting passkeys. Visa's Mark Nelsen noted that passkeys could enhance transaction security through immediate facial scans. Adam Lowe from CompoSecure/Arculus highlighted the security advantages of hardware-bound passkeys over cloud-stored ones, especially in banking applications.

No, generative AI isn’t going to take over your PC games | Digital Trends

A recent article from PC Gamer discussing generative AI in video games sparked controversy, with industry professionals criticizing its portrayal of AI-generated content. A character designer from Bioshock Infinite referred to an AI-generated reimagining of a character as “half-assed cosplay.” The article highlighted the distinction between generative AI, which creates outputs from inputs, and predictive AI, which forecasts outcomes. Nvidia’s projects, like RTX Remix, demonstrate practical applications of AI in enhancing game visuals without compromising creative integrity. AI tools like DLSS improve final outputs rather than generating them from scratch. Concerns about job displacement in the industry have arisen, particularly following layoffs among 2D artists at companies like Activision Blizzard. The discussion emphasizes the need for a balanced approach to AI in gaming, recognizing both its potential benefits and ethical implications.

The BBC confirmed that the issues with incorrect wind speeds and temperatures had been resolved and that both the website and app were functioning normally again. DTN issued an apology for the disruption. BBC meteorologist Matt Taylor reassured the public that the extreme forecasts were a result of a data glitch and that Hurricane Milton was not heading towards the UK.
