Pixel for Business Pixel 9a Lifestyle Images Google recently confirmed that it’s officially bringing Gmail’s client-side encryption (CSE) to mobile devices, which essentially allows users to send and receive end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) emails on Android and iOS. For those unaware, E2EE adds a layer of privacy and security to your messages, ensuring that only senders and recipients can view the messages. With the update, users can now compose and read encrypted messages within the Gmail app, and it’s also designed for universal compatibility—users with a Gmail E2EE license can send secured messages to any recipient, and if the recipient uses…

Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Z Flip8 has now been outed in some CAD-based renders showing it from a bunch of angles. It follows in the footsteps of its bigger sibling, the Galaxy Z Fold8, which leaked in CAD-based renders last month. The Flip8 will measure 166.8 x 75.4 x 6.6 mm when unfolded and 85.4 x 75.4 x 13.2 mm when folded. That makes it a tiny bit longer, wider, and thicker than its predecessor from last year when unfolded, but we do mean a tiny bit – you won’t notice any change in real life. That said, it will be…

Anthropic said this week that the debut of its new Claude Mythos Preview model marks a critical juncture in the evolution of cybersecurity, representing an unprecedented existential threat to existing software defense strategies. So, is it more AI hype—or a true turning point?According to Anthropic, Mythos Preview crosses a threshold of capabilities to discover vulnerabilities in virtually any and every operating system, browser, or other software product and autonomously develop working exploits for hacking. With this in mind, the company is only releasing the new model to a few dozen organizations for now—including Microsoft, Apple, Google, and the Linux Foundation—as…

Arguably the best part about Android is the ability to use a myriad of apps as replacements for Google’s built-in options. This means using something like Microsoft Edge instead of Chrome for your default browser, or Textra SMS instead of Google Messages. But you can also change up the Home Screen launcher, which opens the flood gates on customizing every aspect of how you interact with your phone. Step 1: Find a new launcher Before you can just start using a different home screen launcher, you’ll need to download one from the Play Store. There are quite a few different…

The latest Gemini feature lets Google’s AI generate interactive simulations and models. With this, Gemini can transform your questions and complex topics into custom visualizations directly within the chat. In the past, Gemini would mostly respond to such queries with text with static diagrams. Now, it delivers functional simulations that help you better understand the topic you’re inquiring about. Examples Google gives include “rotating a molecule or simulating a complex physics system”, or “exploring how the moon orbits the Earth”. You can manually adjust options to see how specific variables affect the simulation. This feature is now rolling out to…

Mechanistically, it’s similar to the covid-19 vaccines. What’s different, of course, is that the patient is being immunized against a cancer, not a virus. And it looks like a possible breakthrough. This year, Moderna and Merck showed that such shots halved the chance that patients with the deadliest form of skin cancer would die from a recurrence after surgery. In its formal communications, like regulatory filings, Moderna hasn’t called the shot a cancer vaccine since 2023. That’s when it partnered up with Merck and rebranded the tech as individualized neoantigen therapy, or INT. Moderna’s CEO said at the time that…
