Business Insider reportedly says journalists can use AI to write drafts. Business Insider has told journalists they can use AI to create first drafts of stories and suggested it won’t notify readers that AI was used, according to Status, a newsletter covering the media industry. The policy makes the outlet one of the first to formally allow such extensive use of the technology.The AI guidelines were reportedly circulated in an internal memo from editor-in-chief Jamie Heller on Thursday. The policy authorized journalists to deploy AI “like any other tool” for tasks like research and image editing, Status reported.A dedicated FAQ reportedly addressed whether journalists can explicitly use AI to assist with writing first drafts. “Yes, but you must make sure your final work is yours,” it answered. The guidelines stressed final products must be the journalist’s own work, however, adding that journalists would be responsible for stories under their name. Disclaimers warning audiences AI has been used will probably not accompany articles, Status said, though disclaimers would be attached to entirely AI-generated or unvetted content.AI has divided the news industry, undermining business models, sparking allegations of theft by AI companies, and creating new risks for publishers, something Business Insider knows firsthand after publishing AI-generated stories by a supposed freelancer this summer.Business Insider has been quick to embrace AI in support of its business. It appointed an AI newsroom lead and implemented an array of initiatives like an AI search tool, for example, and parent company Axel Springer inked licensing deals with tech companies like OpenAI and Microsoft.

Have you given the new Outlook client a try? If you have, you may have noticed that it's perhaps not as great as the older client. Which is unfortunate, as when Microsoft announced the new Outlook, it sounded like a home run on paper, but it didn't really pan out as well as I'd hoped.

It's no secret. I've been tinkering with my NAS and installing self-hosted apps, running Docker containers, and more for years. However, one thing I never bothered to do was set up an uptime monitoring dashboard. It felt a bit unnecessary. When I did look into it, most guides pointed me towards Grafana or Prometheus, which require too much work for my simple needs. The reality is that I just wanted a quick way to glance at my system and know what was going on. That's it. Nothing fancy or requiring too much configuration.

Home Assistant is a powerful way to connect all of your devices, self-hosted services, and build automations between all of them. However, connecting your computer on an operating system level can be a confusing endeavor. HASS.Agent is the best way to do that on Windows, but a recent Windows Defender update has seen the most recent stable version of the application become unusable thanks to the expiration of the certificate that the WinRing0 driver uses. For Linux users who could never use HASS.Agent, though, there's a great alternative that's even better than HASS.Agent, and it's called Go HASS Agent.

The Wacom One 14 features a bigger display with smaller bezels. Wacom has introduced a new 14-inch creative display tablet to its entry-level product line for students and hobbyists. The Wacom One 14 is a smidge larger than the One 12 and One 13 touch pen display tablets that Wacom launched in 2023, providing a bigger digital canvas for users to sketch, edit photos, and sculpt 3D models while still being compact and light enough to toss into a backpack.It’s available to buy today for $299.95. That’s significantly less than the $400 launch price for the smaller Wacom One 12 (which has since dropped to $210 on Wacom’s website), and unlike the smaller model, the Wacom One 14 comes with a battery-free Wacom One Standard Pen stylus and USB-C cable included in the box. It’s thinner and the bezels around the display have been slimmed down, but otherwise, its design is similar to the smaller models. It needs to be connected to a laptop or computer to work, and supports Windows, Mac, and Chromebook devices.The Wacom One 14 features an IPS display with a 1920 x 1080 resolution. It’s nothing fancy — lacking support for Wacom’s 10-finger multitouch gestures, for example — but that’s the point. The target demographic for this tablet is people looking to buy their first artist display tablet, or those who don’t need all the professional features and higher resolutions provided by Wacom’s more expensive Cintiq range. That $300 price can also help Wacom to better compete against more affordable offerings from competing tablet providers like Huion, XP-Pen, and Gaomon.

Many gamers swear by GPU undervolting to the extent that it's the first thing they do on each new GPU. Personally, I've dabbled in undervolting, both on the CPU and GPU front, but never stuck to it due to the minor FPS drop (I wasn't lucky enough to get increased performance). Recently, however, I was forced to undervolt my graphics card due to my new OLED monitor pushing the overall power consumption past the capabilities of my UPS — I just couldn't bear the constant beeping.

Zagg is probably best known for its screen protectors, but also offers a wide range of accessories for mobile devices. And while you can find keyboards from plenty of other brands, the Pro Keyboard 12 features a nice perk of being able to charge the device using Qi wireless charging.

Case airflow is one of the most overlooked parts of a PC build, and depending on which parts you have in your rig, it can make a pretty huge difference. While modern cases come with fans installed in their intended direction, over the course of your build you will inevitably have to consider case airflow, and these four mistakes are some of the most common when it comes to fan configuration.

Free giveaways on Steam can come in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes they'll be free to claim for a week, and sometimes they'll only go on a 100% discount for 24 hours. As such, if you want to snag some free games, it's always good to keep your eyes peeled for them.

When I’m out buying a NAS or checking out the components for a custom storage server, there are a couple of factors I take into consideration. The number of drive bays lies at the top of the priority list, and I often run some internal calculations about the storage capacity before locking in on a NAS. Likewise, the RAM is something I never skimp out on – even on the more affordable builds. In fact, it’s something I pay a lot of attention to when hunting for pre-built NAS units or putting together one myself.

If you've been keeping up with gaming hardware news, you'll know that Valve has been working on a project called the "Steam Frame." We don't know a great deal about the project, only that Valve is working hard at it right now. Well, I don't mean to alarm anyone, but several popular hardware YouTubers have suddenly, collectively decided to either take a trip over to Seattle (where Valve's HQ is) or take some time off for tomorrow specifically. It could just be nothing, or it could be absolutely everything.

There was a time when people grew up with video games that mostly appeared on one specific platform. Because of this, franchises that became popular were often closely linked to the consoles that people were able to play them on. Although this wasn't always due to exclusivity deals for game series, the majority of players would still gravitate towards one console over the other for specific titles they enjoyed. And over time, that preference followed them into the modern era, even with most games being available across multiple platforms and offering the same experience to everyone.
