Amazon’s new Fire TV Stick HD is slimmer, faster, and doesn’t need a power adapter

If you have an older TV and want to turn it into a smart one without spending much money, Amazon has a new option for you. The company just released the Fire TV Stick HD, and it costs $35(~Php2,000). The biggest change with the new Amazon Fire TV Stick HD is how it gets power. Older versions needed a wall adapter and a long cable. This new one does not come with a power adapter at all. Instead, it uses a short USB cable that plugs right into your television. Amazon designed it to pull power directly from the TV’s own USB port, which means less clutter behind your screen. If your TV does not have a spare USB port, you can still use any old USB-C phone charger and a regular wall plug to power it. The new Amazon Fire TV Stick HD is also noticeably smaller. Amazon says it is roughly 30 percent narrower than before. That makes it easier to hide behind a wall-mounted TV or squeeze into tight spaces. Performance has gotten a boost as well. Amazon claims the new stick is more than 30...

Study finds too much reliance on AI reduces persistence and lowers performance of humans

A new study from researchers in the US and the UK suggests that leaning on artificial intelligence , even for a short time, could hurt your ability to think and try hard on your own. The findings come from a paper titled “ AI assistance reduces persistence and hurts independent performance .” And the name pretty much tells you everything you need to know. The researchers ran several experiments. In the first one, they asked 350 Americans to solve fraction problems. Half of the group could use a chatbot built on OpenAI’s GPT-5. The other half did the math by themselves. But here is the twist. Halfway through the test, the researchers turned off the chatbot for the group that had been using it. Right after that, that group’s number of correct answers dropped sharply. Many people simply stopped answering questions at all. The team then did the same test with 670 people and got nearly identical results. Then they switched from math to reading comprehension questions. The outcome wa...

Starlink grows its user base in the Philippines, now ranked 6th in the world

The Philippines has quickly become one of the biggest users of Starlink in the Asia-Pacific region, according to a report from Ookla . Out of all the countries where Starlink operates, the Philippines now ranks number six globally. In Asia, it comes in second. The report says the country holds roughly 4.2% of all Starlink subscribers worldwide. But here is the catch. The actual download speed Filipinos get right now is not that high. Ookla’s data shows the typical Starlink user in the Philippines only gets around 55Mbps. That is about half of what the average fixed broadband connection in the country delivers, which is over 100Mbps. So why do people still choose Starlink? The main reason is geography. The Philippines has over 7,600 islands. Laying down fiber cables or building cell towers everywhere is really difficult and expensive. Starlink works well in remote places where traditional internet cannot reach. Starlink also beats older satellite services. Older systems use sa...

Alibaba’s Wan2.7 AI model now includes both image and video generation

Chinese tech company Alibaba has released a new artificial intelligence model called Wan2.7-Video . The company says the tool is meant to turn everyday creators into directors by handling most of the heavy lifting in video production. The launch happened only a few days after Alibaba put out its latest picture generation tool, Wan2.7-Image. Releasing both tools so close together shows that Alibaba is moving fast to build a full set of AI products for images and videos. Wan2.7-Video comes with four different parts. One turns written descriptions into video. Another turns existing pictures into moving footage. The third one uses reference images to guide the output. The last one focuses on editing clips that users already have. All these parts work together so that someone can write a script, pick a style, and get a finished short video without jumping between different apps. The system can handle clips as short as 2 seconds or as long as 15 seconds. Users can choose either 720p ...

TECNO has unveiled another iPhone 17 Pro-looking budget phone, the TECNO Spark 50 4G. Unlike the iPhone Air -inspired Spark 50 5G , the camera plateau on the TECNO Spark 50 4G looks undeniably inspired by the iPhone 17 Pro series . The Halo Blue colorway appears to have a halo surrounding the camera island, but we can’t confirm if it’s indeed actual lighting or just part of the paint job. A big feature of the Spark 50 4G is the large 7,000mAh battery. TECNO claims it can last for up to 28 hours of continuous video playback and can keep 80% of its health after 5 years of normal use. This big battery is charged by an 18W adapter. For the cameras, there’s a 50-megapixel sensor on the back and an 8-megapixel sensor on the front.
