  1. Surface Laptop Ultra reviews: RTX Spark AI power, but pricey with weak battery

    The first reviews of Microsoft's Surface Laptop Ultra are out, with reviewers praising its exceptionally bright mini LED screen, repair-friendly design, MacBook-like build quality, haptic trackpad and its ability to run AI models locally on Nvidia RTX Spark; outlet scores cluster roughly between 60 and 85. Criticism centers on battery life that can't compete with the MacBook Pro, noticeable fan noise, some popular games not yet supported, emulation hiccups and the absence of all Copilot+ features, with reviewers also noting Windows doesn't yet take full advantage of RTX Spark. Most reviews call the laptop expensive, positioning it for professionals who need gaming, content creation and AI workflows in one machine rather than mainstream Windows buyers.

  2. Meta Muse accused of profiling users' friends and contacts

    The Verge published a commentary on October 15 criticizing Meta's AI personal assistant Muse for requesting access to bank accounts, passwords, contacts and chat logs, and for drawing in information about users' friends and family. Meta spokesperson Daniel Roberts said Muse builds context from public information and from what users choose to share, such as remembering that the person who sent an invoice is the plumber hired earlier. Critics including Signal Foundation president Meredith Whittaker questioned whether users can make informed choices about others' data, and the report cited Wired saying security researchers who extracted Muse's operating instructions found an internal process that compiles and updates profiles of everyone in a user's life hourly.
