    • Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge sales are apparently terrible by Usama Jawad After much fanfare, Samsung officially launched the Galaxy S25 Edge last month, marketing it as the slimmest phone in the series. The handset is 5.8mm thick and weighs 163g, hosts a 200MP primary lens and a 12MP ultra-wide sensor, and a Snapdragon 8 Elite Mobile Platform for Galaxy processor - the same one powering the S25 series. However, despite all of these features backed by Samsung's marketing effort, it seems like the handset isn't performing well in terms of sales. A report from South Korean outlet The Elec claims that the S25 Edge is is selling fewer units than what Samsung expected. This has resulted in Samsung lowering the number of units it plans to produce in June. It is important to keep in mind that it has been a little over a month since the S25 Edge came out, and since handsets are expected to sell well a few months within their launch date, this isn't a particularly promising sign. An earlier rumor had claimed that Samsung will be increasing the production of its foldable units and will phase out the upcoming S26 Plus in favor of the S26 Edge. However, the latest news out of South Korea might make Samsung rethink its strategy. The latest report hasn't shed light on why the S25 Edge is underperforming in sales. This could be due to the prohibitive price tag of $1,100 (keep in mind that the S25+ costs $1,000), but this is just speculation at this point due to lack of official evidence. Those interested in still getting their hands on the S25 Edge can grab the top-of-the-line 512GB model at a 20% discount right now. This brings the price down from $1219.99 to just $969.99. Perhaps this significant discount so early after launch is also an indicator about the poor sales performance of the handset. Source: The Elec
    • Someone not paying the BBC license at home is a minor inconvenience to BBC. The real problem are these Ai companies STEALING data through scraping and then selling it under their product. Just pirating something for personal use is nowhere near as bad as stealing it to make corporate profits.

    • Nvidia and Foxconn planning to deploy humanoid robots within months by Paul Hill Never mind intellectual work, Foxconn and Nvidia are now in talks to deploy humanoid robots at Foxconn’s new Houston factory to carry out physical work, Reuters has reported. The two companies want to have the robots operational by the first quarter of 2026. This is a big development for both companies; it marks the first time Nvidia products will be made with robot assistance, and the first time Foxconn has used robots in an AI server factory on a production line. While the development is certainly interesting, and potentially bad for factory workers, we do not know many of the details such as which robots are being planned for use at the factory, what they’ll look like, or how many will be deployed. While Foxconn has trialed robots made by Chinese firm UBTech, the report states that Foxconn is developing its own robots with Nvidia. The news was told to Reuters via unnamed sources who are not allowed to discuss the matter, so they did so under anonymity. They said that the robots will start work early next year and will contribute to the production of Nvidia’s GB300 AI servers. Foxconn has been training the robots to pick and place objects, insert cables, and do assembly work, but it’s not clear exactly what their role will be on the factory floor and whether jobs will be impacted. One of the sources that spoke to Reuters said that the Houston factory was the best place to trial the robots because it is more spacious, giving robots more room to move about. Last month, a Foxconn subsidiary, which is in charge of the group’s AI server business, said there were two robots being developed which are expected to be showcased in November. One of the robots will have legs, while the other will use a wheeled autonomous mobile robot base. Predictably, the latter version will cost less money than the one with legs, but pricing is unknown at this point. Reuters noted that these two businesses are not the only ones working on robots. It also said that Mercedes-Benz and BMW have been testing robots on production lines and that Tesla is developing its own robots too. China is also getting heavily invested in the sector. Jensen Huang, head of Nvidia, believes that they will be in wide use in manufacturing facilities within five years.
    • That's great and all, but humans have a finite range of vision and a rather slow reaction time. I live in a rural area too and the roads are painted with dear carcasses most of the year. It's not because people choose to hit them. A human simply can't react quick enough when they come firing out of the woods perpendicular to your vision. Those issues can and are being solved with machine vision. The industrial world has been doing this for many years already and cars are finally jumping on the bandwagon using the same technology. It's a known fact that driving is the most dangerous thing (most) people do every day, and that's solely because humans are driving. It's one thing to use technology to be lazy, but it's another to use it to be safe and save lives.
