Fujitsu announced yesterday they were rolling out a new line of UMPCs, with claims the new U series of ultra-mobile PCs is currently the smallest tablet-convertible format out there. The FMV-U8240, which is the first model of the series, should be available in Japan starting in June.

The FMV-U8240, said Fujitsu, weighs only 580g and has a thickness of only 26.5mm. Its convertible style design sports a 5.6-inch widescreen LCD. It is powered by an Intel Processor A110 (800 MHz) and runs Windows Vista. Rechargeable battery life is rated at eight hours and the touchscreen interface lets one tap on the screen to conduct business.

Ollama brings free, local text-to-speech to your Mac with natural-sounding AI voices

Ollama's new Phonon integration brings natural-sounding AI voices to your Mac, letting you generate speech locally without relying on cloud services or a subscription.

Speech-to-text apps have flooded the App Store, making it easier than ever to type on our Macs with just our voice. I have previously covered one such app called TypeWhisper. However, there has been a dearth of good text-to-speech models, and most of the good ones are locked behind a subscription.

Ollama, an open-source app that lets you run local AI models on your computer, wants to change that. It works on macOS, Windows, and Linux, and your prompts are never stored or used for training.

They have built a forensic tool called ORISA that can dig deleted conversations from your phone and even rebuild them into a working chatbot session you can keep talking to.

How can ORISA bring deleted AI conversations back?
