After rolling it out on desktop and Android earlier in 2025, Google is finally bringing its built-in Gemini AI experience to iPhone and iPad. It offers new features like summarizing pages and helping you test your knowledge about a subject you’re learning. As with any AI tool, though, it shouldn’t be trusted for anything important given the possibility of hallucinations and other errors.When it arrives on your iOS device, tapping the spark icon at the left of the address bar (in place of the Google Lens camera) brings up a “Pages tool” that offers Lens and the new feature, “Ask…
Tariffs. Inflation. Historic corporate shake-ups and mergers. With all the factors the tech industry is facing, you might think the price of a common product like a laptop would have risen this year.

Jim Ward, sometimes know as James Kevin Ward, was a voice actor and radio host, best known for providing the wonderful voice of Ratchet & Clank‘s buffoonish antihero Captain Qwark. It was announced last night (via PushSquare) that he has died at the age of 66. Jim Ward was perhaps more recently most recognized as a co-host on the nationally syndicated talk radio program, The Stephanie Miller Show, but to video games players it’s almost certainly Captain Qwark who would first come to mind. The hilarious character, all bravado and little talent, was so deftly performed by Ward such that he was just likable enough…

“Reckless” Stevens’ impeachment articles were directly supported by a grassroots political organization advocating for the country’s scientific community, called Stand Up for Science. Colette Delawalla, the group’s founder and CEO, was quoted in Stevens’ press announcement, saying Kennedy’s actions are “negligent and will result in harm and loss of life. He must be impeached and removed.” In the 13-page impeachment articles filed, Stevens accuses Kennedy of high crimes and misdemeanors, citing a lengthy list of actions Kennedy has taken that have been widely decried by public health, scientific, and medical experts as harmful. Those include gutting funding for research, including…

A single sperm donor who carries a rare cancer-causing genetic mutation has fathered at least 197 children across 14 countries in Europe, according to a collaborative investigation by 14 European news groups. According to their investigative report, some of the children have already died, and many others are expected to develop deadly cancers. The man—Donor 7069, alias “Kjeld”—carries a rare mutation in the TP53 gene, which codes for a critical tumor suppressor called protein 53 or p53. This protein (which is a transcription factor) keeps cells from dividing uncontrollably, can activate DNA repair processes amid damage, and can trigger cell…
