In its first detailed response to a legal challenge, the agency said TikTok’s proposed changes wouldn’t prevent China from using it to collect U.S. users’ data or spread propaganda.

Last month, digital photography brand Blackmagic Design launched its Blackmagic Camera app on Android, but it was limited to a handful of Galaxy and Pixel phones. On those phones, it gave users access to pro-level film tools, and now the company revealed it’s expanding the availability of its software to older devices.

The announcement almost went unnoticed as it was made on social media instead of their official blog. According to their post, Blackmagic Camera version 1.1 is now available on the Samsung Galaxy S21, Galaxy S22, the entire Pixel 6 line, the OnePlus 11, and the OnePlus 12. For non-American users, the app is also available for Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 14. You can download it right from the Google Play Store.

Just to give you an idea of what you’re getting, Blackmagic Camera offers “advanced configuration options” to help you set up the right shots, tools to help you check exposure, and support for “various video resolutions,” among other things. 

There is a requirement that must be met, but luckily, it’s not a strict one. Android Central states the phone must be running Android 13 or later, which shouldn’t be an issue with these models. 

New features

In addition to the expansion, version 1.1 introduces multiple new features and adjustments to the software. These include, but are not limited to, a general performance boost, optional image noise reduction, the ability to dim the screen while recording, plus support for 3D LUTs.

That last one refers to 3D Look Up Tables. These are a collection of color presets that can be added to photographs or videos to achieve a certain look. For example, LUTs can help correct the colors in an image, enhance shadows, or add a sepia filter. Groups and businesses should also appreciate the newfound connection to Blackmagic Cloud for Organizations. This is a first-party cloud service where people can come together to share files for a project.

Ron Wyden and Edward Markey urged the F.T.C. to investigate how car companies handled the data from millions of car owners.

X (formerly Twitter) thinks it’s circumvented some of the issues other social media companies such as Meta have bumped up against in regard to training its AI, Grok, on user data and information - but there’s something you can do about it. 

X quietly added a setting that allows your posts, interactions, inputs, and results to be used to train and ‘fine-tune’ Grok. X now features a checkbox in the app’s settings that is checked by default, and this setting’s disclaimer also mentions that your user data might be shared with Grok’s service provider, xAI.

If for whatever reason, you’re an X user who doesn’t want their data to be used to train Grok, you can disable this new setting and even delete your conversation history with Grok. As noted by TechCrunch, this isn’t possible in the X mobile app, but you can do this by going to your X account settings page on desktop.

How to switch off X’s data sharing with Grok and xAI: 

1. Navigate to the Settings and privacy page on X using a desktop device. You can locate it by clicking the hyperlinked page or by opening X, clicking the icon of ellipses in a circle in the left-hand side panel, and selecting Settings and privacy.

2. Click on the Privacy and safety section.

3. Click on Grok. You may need to scroll down a fair bit to reach it. 

4. Click the blue box with a white check in it to uncheck it and disable the setting. 

You can delete your conversation history with Grok in this same location by clicking the option in red text which reads ‘Delete conversation history.’ 

We’ll have to see if X’s approach breaches any regulations or laws, but until then, it’s up to you to take charge of your data and information. 

Former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick has a new startup called Lumi aimed at helping creators complete, publish, and sell books and comics. Lumi offers a suite of AI tools to complement users' existing talents and merchandise what they create.

Lumi's pitch is that most people aren't equally proficient at every aspect of making and selling a book and that AI can fill in those gaps. For instance, if a writer can't draw, Lumi can produce illustrations. Or, if a comic artist has a story idea but struggles with dialogue, Lumi can help compose the words for their book. And, if a creative genius lacks training in marketing and sales, they can publish and distribute their creation through Lumi's platform. 

Lumi Comics

Lumi’s initial plans center on comic books and graphic novels. The many creative skills necessary to produce comics make it an ideal market for the company, which is planning a subscription fee business model for users. One aspect unaddressed by the news is ownership and copyright. The United States Copyright Office (USCO) is not a fan of covering publications made using AI. USCO initially seemed okay with the idea of issuing copyright protection for a comic book with art made using AI, issuing copyright to Kris Kashtanova and their self-published comic made with Midjourney’s text-to-image engine, “Zarya of the Dawn.” But not long after, USCO changed its policy and took back the copyright protection.

Lumi, so far, is skipping around that stormcloud. Instead, the company claims incorporating AI will streamline production and open up opportunities to more people who might otherwise never get to the publishing stage. Kaepernick cited his own challenges in publishing as inspiration, particularly the high production costs, lengthy timelines, and industry skepticism he believes often hinder the creation and dissemination of diverse stories. Notably, he later started Kaepernick Publishing, presumably to avoid those kinds of limits.

“Lumi addresses an unnecessary dependency on gatekeepers that slows creators down,” Kaepernick said in a statement. “This allows creators to get back to what they ultimately want to do: create. The platform empowers creators to work freely and independently, deciding when and how they want to collaborate with others. This independence is crucial for fostering a vibrant and diverse creative ecosystem.”

Whatever happens with copyright protections, Kaepernick may have a little bit of leeway to give his idea a go. He secured $4 million in venture capital funding led by Seven Seven Six, the venture capital firm set up by Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian.

The new SearchGPT feature introduced by OpenAI has stumbled in its rollout, as first discovered by The Atlantic. SearchGPT is a new tool designed to combine OpenAI's AI models with real-time web data for faster, more accurate answers. It's not widely available but represents OpenAI's vision of how AI and search will augment each other in the future.

In a prerecorded video showcasing SearchGPT, the tool provided incorrect information about the dates of the Appalachian Summer Festival in Boone, North Carolina. The July 29 to August 16 dates SearchGPT reported are far from the June 29 to July 27 dates the event actually occurs. As reported by The Atlantic and further confirmed, the dates of the festival in SearchGPT's response are when the box office is closed. You can watch the full demo here.

SearchGPT Still Looking

AI hallucinations and errors are perennial complaints, a universal issue pretty much every AI user has encountered. In that sense, the mistake is not a huge deal. However, the result here somewhat undermines OpenAI's pitch for SearchGPT. With reliability and transparency at the heart of SearchGPT, according to OpenAI, it stands out when a hallucination like this still happens.

This isn't an issue that is unique to OpenAI, of course. You may recall the embarrassing errors made when Google debuted its AI assistant Bard (now Gemini). In that case, a live demo claimed the James Webb Space Telescope took the first pictures of a planet outside the solar system, even though they were actually taken by the European Very Large Telescope. It was so bad that some people attributed a subsequent $100 billion dip in Google stock price to the gaffe. Arguably, having the error in a video that OpenAI could have redone or edited differently at any time is worse than a real-time misstep.

Regardless of the mistake, OpenAI will likely not slow down in developing AI search. The demand for accurate, speedy answers to questions about things happening right now has already propelled AI integration into existing search engines, including Google and Microsoft Bing. It's also the impetus behind search-centered generative AI chatbots like You.com and Perplexity. 

But, if OpenAI can release its own option, especially tied to ChatGPT, it will, at the very least, score a robust slice of the search AI market. That's predicated on getting people to trust SearchGPT to provide accurate answers, of course. You could ask SearchGPT to give the odds of that happening, but you might want to follow up on your own to confirm what it says.

The company works with several professional sports teams in the NBA, NFL, MLB, and MLS. Its founder also was one of the developers of Bluetooth.

You may remember that a while back, we reported on a nifty feature hidden in test versions of  Windows 11, allowing users to see and use their phone within the desktop OS (in File Explorer) as if it were an external drive. We have been waiting patiently for this feature to finally drop somewhere, and it looks like the time is now!

In an official blog post, Microsoft announced that it’s gradually rolling out the feature to Windows testers with Android phones across the various Insider channels (there are four, from Canary to Release Preview).

This means that for now, only some Windows 11 testers will be able to try out the feature, but the key takeaway is that Microsoft is working on releasing this - and it could be available for all users before too long.

With the feature, you can sift through files and folders, including photos and videos, on your Android phone right in File Explorer on the Windows 11 desktop. You can also perform all the usual file-related actions (open, rename, move, delete, and so forth) across devices. 

In the blog post, Microsoft clarifies that this feature will work wirelessly, so you can see it in File Explorer when your phone is near your PC. (Assuming you’ve turned on the ‘Access in File Explorer’ functionality in ‘Manage mobile devices’ in Settings).

When can I have this?!

Unfortunately, as it’s still in the development phase, the only way you can give the feature a go is by joining the Windows Insider Program. Becoming a tester in any Windows 11 preview channel will allow you to experiment with new features and fixes that Microsoft is currently working on - like this one - and to provide feedback to help make those features more reliable.

On top of being a Windows 11 tester, you need to be running the beta version of the Link to Windows app (v1.24071 or higher) on an Android 11 (or better) smartphone to get this feature. Again, remember that not all testers will have it straight away, too.

Most folks, though, will want to wait until this functionality rolls out to the finished version of Windows 11 - although normally, at this point, we’d add a caveat that not every feature in testing makes it through to release. But since Microsoft made a blog post dedicated to this, with some detailed instructions on how to get it to work, we’re a bit more confident this is one change that won’t be abandoned.

If you do go ahead and join the people testing Windows 11, remember that, as with any feature still in development, things can go wrong - and that might mean for your Android phone in this case, possibly, as well as your PC. So, if you are super-keen to try this particular addition to Windows 11, we’d advise you to stay away from any of your important files or photos and make sure you back up everything before giving it a whirl. If you have any doubts or worries at all - just wait for the full release for all Windows 11 users.

Microsoft has just released a new Windows 11 test build in the Release Preview channel, the final stage of testing for preview builds, and this is an exciting - or depressing, in some respects - look at what will eventually be the 24H2 update for the OS.

As you’re likely aware, 24H2 will be the next major update for Windows 11, and possibly the last version of the operating system before the next-gen incarnation arrives (whether that’s Windows 12, or something else entirely). 

Microsoft has published the usual release notes on this new build, which is version 26100.1297 for the Windows 11 24H2 preview. Microsoft clarifies that not all the features will be delivered to all testers straight away - some will, but others will be rolled out gradually. So, if you’re a tester in the Release Preview channel, you’ll have to be patient and wait for some functionality to arrive over time.

Let’s dive into some highlights of the documented changes - for the full list, check out Microsoft’s blog post - all the while bearing in mind that these are features we expect will be part of the 24H2 update later this year. (Although that’s not guaranteed, as Microsoft could still drop things, even at this relatively late stage of development). 

(Image credit: TechRadar)  Changes aplenty from Settings to the Start menu

To kick off, the Settings app is getting a number of changes, including an Xbox Game Pass ‘recommendation card’ on the home page which has been in the works for a while and hasn’t been met very positively. It’s also getting a dedicated ‘Linked devices’ page - to manage any linked hardware with, such as your Xbox, for example - and the ability to add a recovery email address for your Microsoft Account straight from the Settings app.

Windows Share is being revised to prevent accidentally closing its window (by clicking anywhere outside of it), and additional capabilities are being thrown into the mix, such as being able to swiftly generate and share a QR code for a web link.

Windows Backup is also getting beefed up, and will now back up the sound settings of your PC (including the sound scheme). Task Manager is also benefiting from some tweaks to make it more reliable, as well as numerous accessibility improvements (such as bringing in Tab key navigation).

File Explorer has finally been graced with its long-awaited drag-and-drop functionality for the address bar, and the Windows 11 lock screen is getting new widgets. Currently, there’s just a weather widget, but you’ll now get sports, traffic, and finance widgets as part of this update. Sadly, you can’t pick and choose from the new widgets separately - you get them all, or none of them (though Microsoft is working on changing that, we’ve been promised in the past).

Windows 11’s Start menu has also been the subject of some controversy for similar reasons to the Settings app, recently seeing the addition of more of Microsoft’s ‘recommendations’ (which are regarded as ads by some). In this preview build, it’s getting a new account manager that will show you the benefits of your Microsoft Account (or rather, remind you of what you’re lacking, and that you should subscribe to various Microsoft products), as well as allowing you to manage account settings. As we’ve seen before, apparently this account manager feature will obscure a part of the Start menu that offers shortcuts to actions such as signing out of, or locking, your PC.

Finally, it’s worth noting that the new take on 24H2 adds the PC Manager app to Windows 11 PCs in China - so, will this come to other regions eventually? It’s a PC file and storage management tool with performance tuning abilities, but it has been a vehicle for more Microsoft adverts in the past - even hilariously suggesting one viable system 'repair' was to change your default search engine back to Bing.

(Image credit: Shutterstock / fizkes) A rough ride in store for Microsoft?

If a lot of these features and changes sound familiar to you, that’s because most of them have already been aired and tested previously in earlier preview channels. (Canary, Dev, and Beta all come before the Release Preview channel, which is the final stage of testing before the finished version is deployed).

There’s good and bad here, certainly. However, Microsoft might be in for a particularly rough ride when people see that there are a few ad-related features apparently marching on through to 24H2 - which is on course for release later this year (though perhaps not quite as early as we thought) - as many people are already frustrated with Microsoft’s continued, persistent, jamming in of adverts in key parts of Windows 11.

Frankly, I think there’ll have to be some serious improvements with performance and features elsewhere to help Windows 11 users look past Microsoft’s continued badgering with adverts. Microsoft seems pretty confident that it has enough goodwill with its customers, or maybe that its adverts won’t be especially bothersome or distracting, but I’m curious to see how the features delivered in this update will be received - and the reception the additional ‘recommendations’ will get in particular.

If you don’t use Google as your search engine, then you won’t see Reddit posts in your search results – or at least not recent content from Reddit, anyway.

This is the state of play in the search world now, following a fresh move by Reddit, as explained by spokesperson Tim Rathschmidt in a statement provided to The Verge.

Ratchschmidt said: “We have been in discussions with multiple search engines. We have been unable to reach agreements with all of them, since some are unable or unwilling to make enforceable promises regarding their use of Reddit content, including their use for AI.”

So, only Google will be able to surface recent Reddit posts, according to the report - though rival search engines like Bing will still show results for older content on the site.

Like many people, I often use ‘site:reddit.com’ in searches when I want more personal, human answers, for example when I'm looking for help navigating a tough spot in a videogame or skincare recommendations – or I even just add the word ‘Reddit’ at the end of my search query to bring up the best results. Right now, however, if you try this on any other search engine than Google you’re probably going to wind up pretty disappointed and staring at outdated Reddit posts.

Earlier in the year Google struck a deal with Reddit worth $60million to allow its hungry AI bots to feast on Reddit's sweet, sweet content. Said deal followed a Reddit blackout last year (a protest against API changes) that left Google seriously in the lurch without access to a swathe of subreddits.

We should note that Ratchschmidt also clarified that this latest move with search results is “not at all related to our recent partnership with Google.”

You scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours… 

So, it seems like Reddit is playing a strong hand here, in this game of data scraping – and blocking AIs from hoovering up its posts and presenting them as results for queries. As The Verge further observes, last month, Reddit updated its robots.txt file to stop web crawlers from doing exactly this – hammering home the fact that Reddit data is not for free. 

A spokesperson for Microsoft, Caitlin Roulston, previously acknowledged that: “Microsoft respects the robots.txt standard, and we honor the directions provided by websites that do not want content on their pages to be used with our generative AI models.”

Overall, these are gutsy moves on Reddit's part, attempting to draw firm lines regarding AI being ‘entitled’ to data for free.

Right now, if you try to use the handy Reddit tag on search engines like Bing, you’ll still get Reddit posts related to your query – but they’ll be several years old. If you need more recent advice, you’ll have to be searching with Google, at least for the time being – until other search engines are ready to stump up some cash for the privilege.

Windows 11 users could be treated to a range of minor (but useful!) tweaks which have been spotted in recent preview builds, including some nifty taskbar-related changes. 

One notable change introduced with the latest preview of Windows 11 in the Beta channel (build 22635) is a taskbar tweak that means a jump list appears when you hover over an icon on the bar. This list pops up to allow you to access features in the app with a quick click - so for example, with the Snipping Tool, you can click to take a screenshot there and then.

Right now in Windows 11, to get these options you have to right-click the app icon on the taskbar (so having this work with just a hover is an extra bit of convenience, saving you an extra click).

Another new introduction spotted in this Beta build pertains to the ‘Continue from phone’ feature which has previously been spotted in testing with Windows 11. As the name suggests, it’ll offer some kind of functionality to allow you to continue a task from your Android phone on your PC. We don’t know how it’ll work yet - or how it will relate to the existing Phone Link feature in Windows 11 - because the ‘Continue from phone’ feature doesn’t do anything at all right now (later in testing it will, no doubt).

The fresh change here, first spotted by leaker PhantomOfEarth on X in the Start menu, is the addition of an option to have the ‘Continue from phone’ icon present itself on the taskbar when a ‘hand off’ is available (presumably meaning the ability to transfer something you’re doing on your smartphone to the Windows 11 desktop). In the new Beta build, you can turn this ability on or off under Settings (in Personalization > Taskbar).

Other useful tweaks for better mousing and more

Elsewhere in another preview version of Windows 11, build 26257 in the Canary channel, an option to duplicate a tab has been added to File Explorer in the right-click menu for the tab.

There’s also a smart tweak for the mouse scroll wheel - the ability to change the scrolling direction (so when you roll the wheel towards you, the page will move up, instead of down - you can have it either way, basically). It’s also possible to turn off ‘enhanced mouse pointer precision’ to boot, if you don’t like that functionality.

If you want to try these features out, you’ll need to join the Windows Insider Program as a tester. Otherwise, you’ll need to wait for them to make their way through the various test versions of Windows 11, until they get to public release.

There’s always a chance that features in testing could be pulled by Microsoft, but hopefully, the taskbar-related tweaks in particular will be available to all Windows 11 users soon. Windows Latest believes that they’ll roll out to everyone as part of the Windows 11 24H2 update.

It's almost two months since OpenAI showed off ChatGPT's impressive new Voice Mode (and got into a public spat with Scarlett Johansson), but the feature is now ready to roll out to Plus subscribers – or at least a small group of them.

ChatGPT fans have been nagging OpenAI about the Voice Mode on an almost daily basis, and CEO Sam Altman has now given an update on X (formerly Twitter). In the short reply to someone asking about the rebooted voice mode, Altman says "alpha rollout starts to plus subscribers next week!"

The casual nature of the reply suggests this isn't a full announcement, so further delays are possible. But it does suggest the new Voice Mode is now imminent, for a select group of ChatGPT Plus subscribers (a tier that costs $20 / £16 / AU$28 a month).

The new mode probably won't get a full rollout in the week beginning July 29, because OpenAI previously said on X (formerly Twitter) that it'll "start the alpha with a small group of users to gather feedback and expand based on what we learn".

alpha rollout starts to plus subscribers next week!July 25, 2024

OpenAI had initially planned to start this small rollout to Alpha users in late June, but said it needed "one more month to reach our bar to launch". Well, it seems that extra time, which it needed to improve the "model’s ability to detect and refuse certain content", has been fruitful and it'll be out in the wild (for some) within days.

This may again prove frustrating for ChatGPT Plus subscribers who aren't in the select Alpha group, but OpenAI says that it is "planning for all Plus users to have access in the fall". That appears to still be its planned schedule for the new Voice Mode, but we'll likely get a bigger update next week.

What is ChatGPT's new Voice Mode?

OpenAI has been stoking the hype for ChatGPT's Voice Mode in the weeks since it was first demoed, launching various videos (like the one above) that show its ability to do improv routines with different character voices, help users with interview roleplay, and assist with learning new languages.

When you watch these demos, it's easy to see why the new Voice Mode is so highly anticipated. We may have seen the likes of Siri subsequently get an AI upgrade, but the no other AI voice assistants have yet demonstrated an equivalent capacity for what OpenAI calls "real-time, natural conversations with AI".

An added element to these voice interactions is that the latest GPT-4o model can also form its responses based on a combination of audio, text and also video – which means sci-fi conversations like the one in this demo video. 

Whether or not ChatGPT's new Voice Mode can achieve this level of fluidity and consistency in the real world is something we're going to find out very soon. With OpenAI also revealing a prototype of its SearchGPT search engine, it's shaping up to be another wild month for the world's best-known AI company.

The use of artificial intelligence is exploding around the world, but the technology’s language models are primarily trained in English, leaving many speakers of other languages behind.

An episode unburdened by what has been.

OpenAI is making a change to stop people from messing with custom versions of ChatGPT by making the AI forget what it's supposed to do. Basically, when a third party uses one of OpenAI's models, they give it instructions that teach it to operate as, for example, a customer service agent for a store or a researcher for an academic publication. However, a user could mess with the chatbot by telling it to "forget all instructions," and that phrase would induce a kind of digital amnesia and reset the chatbot to a generic blank.

To prevent this, OpenAI researchers created a new technique called "instruction hierarchy," which is a way to prioritize the developer's original prompts and instructions over any potentially manipulative user-created prompts. The system instructions have the highest privilege and can't be erased so easily anymore. If a user enters a prompt that attempts to misalign the AI's behavior, it will be rejected, and the AI responds by stating that it cannot assist with the query.

OpenAI is rolling out this safety measure to its models, starting with the recently released GPT-4o Mini model. However, should these initial tests work well, it will presumably be incorporated across all of OpenAI's models. GPT-4o Mini is designed to offer enhanced performance while maintaining strict adherence to the developer's original instructions.

AI Safety Locks

As OpenAI continues to encourage large-scale deployment of its models, these kinds of safety measures are crucial. It's all too easy to imagine the potential risks when users can fundamentally alter the AI's controls that way. 

Not only would it make the chatbot ineffective, it could remove rules preventing the leak of sensitive information and other data that could be exploited for malicious purposes. By reinforcing the model's adherence to system instructions, OpenAI aims to mitigate these risks and ensure safer interactions.

The introduction of instruction hierarchy comes at a crucial time for OpenAI regarding concerns about how it approaches safety and transparency. Current and former employees have called for improving the company's safety practices, and OpenAI's leadership has responded by pledging to do so. The company has acknowledged that the complexities of fully automated agents require sophisticated guardrails in future models, and the instruction hierarchy setup seems like a step on the road to achieving better safety. 

These kinds of jailbreaks show how much work still needs to be done to protect complex AI models from bad actors. And it's hardly the only example. Several users discovered that ChatGPT would share its internal instructions by simply saying "hi." 

OpenAI plugged that gap, but it's probably only a matter of time before more are discovered. Any solution will need to be much more adaptive and flexible than one that simply halts a particular kind of hacking.
