For Developers, building an Android app used to mean downloading Android Studio, wrestling with the SDK, and hoping your laptop had enough RAM to survive. However, Google walked onto the I/O 2026 stage today and basically said: skip all of that, just type what you want.Build a real Android app with a prompt, no install requiredGoogle AI Studio can now generate entire native Android apps from a single prompt, and the whole thing runs in your browser. If you are a Developer, you get an embedded Android Emulator to preview your app live, and when you’re happy, you plug your…
Once someone submits a takedown request, a platform has up to 48 hours to determine whether it is valid. If it decides that it is, then it has to remove both the content reported and any identical copies.Several larger platforms say they use an industry tool called StopNCII, which uses matching algorithms to identify abusive images and videos and is maintained by a British nonprofit.

Reddit, TikTok, Snap, Microsoft Bing, and Meta’s social media platforms Facebook, Instagram, and Threads are all listed as participants…
Lords of the Fallen developer CI Games has just announced that it has “entered into a Separation Agreement” with Epic Games, which releases its upcoming sequel, Lords of the Fallen 2, from its Epic Games Store exclusivity deal on PC.

Although CI Games posted the Separation Agreement on its official website last night, May 18, the document notes that the…
T-Mobile and SpaceX struck up a high-profile partnership in 2022, culminating in the rollout of T-Satellite in July. Fast forward almost a year, and T-Mobile seemingly can’t downplay the service enough.We heard it the first timeThe adoption of the SpaceX-powered T-Satellite feature may not have been enthusiastic, but does T-Mobile really need to remind us every single day?

Now, he’s jostling for position among a handful of Democratic and GOP candidates looking to advance from a June primary and then win the California governorship this November.Ahead of the midterms, I’m talking to candidates relevant to WIRED’s interests: A few weeks ago…
Over two months after its release, someone has finally made a nearly complete, mostly 1:1 replica of the Kanto region in Pokémon Pokopia. This comes from a post on Reddit by u/starguy13, who’s been documenting their progress on this project almost since the game came out. They’ve been using the blank-slate Palette Town map to recreate the map from the original Pokémon games as accurately as possible, and it genuinely looks quite impressive. You can scroll through a lot of their WIP photos to see how close it looks: However, they’ve run into some hurdles along the way that have…

The rocket company’s private valuation shot up to over $1 trillion after it acquired xAI last year.…
It’s been over three years since the last season of Disney’s Pedro Pascal-led space Western The Mandalorian was released, and roughly six years since we last saw a live-action Star Wars film on the big screen. While the likes of Star Wars: Skeleton Crew and Andor have filled the gap in storytelling in the years between, 2026 has marked an unusual pause in the never-ending stream of live-action Star Wars spin-offs. But now, The Mandalorian is back to fill the void with The Mandalorian and Grogu, and Disney and Lucasfilm are clearly hoping that fans will forget how bad the…
