Considered to be a work in progress in our Microsoft Surface Duo review, there’s still a ton to like here. Thanks to its thin, light, and versatile design, you can do more thanks to its dual Pixelsense fusion displays that offer 8.1-inches of whatever you need to do. With a revolutionary 360-degree hinge, you have the ability to choose to tackle the task at hand or expand how much room you have to get working. It’s a different smartphone experience but one that’s a great change of pace.

Apple is preparing for a major Mac and iPad launch towards the end of October, with redesigned MacBook Pro models expected to take centre stage. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman in his latest Power On newsletter, Apple is planning an event on or around October 27, where it could introduce touchscreen MacBook Pro laptops, updated Macs and a new iPad mini.

The launch could mark a significant shift for the MacBook Pro, which is reportedly getting its most substantial redesign in years. Apple had initially targeted a late-2025 release for the touchscreen laptop, but development priorities and supply-chain delays pushed the launch back. The new models are now said to be ready for their debut.

ChatGPT’s yes-man era may finally be coming to an end
ChatGPT is learning that agreeing with everything you say isn’t always helpful

OpenAI says it is making progress in reducing a troubling behaviour in ChatGPT: the tendency to agree with users too readily, even when their beliefs may be false or harmful. The improvements come as researchers and mental-health professionals raise concerns about prolonged chatbot conversations reinforcing delusions, encouraging unhealthy dependence and failing to direct vulnerable users towards human support.

According to a report by The Wall Street Journal published on October 10, OpenAI’s older GPT-4o model was associated with several reported cases of serious harm following lengthy interactions. The report cited at least seven suicides, one murder-suicide and one mass shooting linked to extended ChatGPT conversations last year, while noting that other AI models were implicated in some cases. These reported associations do not, by themselves, establish that chatbot use caused each incident.

Nature, Outdoors, Sea

Free versions of Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and Lightroom are an easy sell to anyone tired of paying Adobe. Add a developer who says he vibe-coded replacements for seven of the company’s apps, and the triumphant headline practically writes itself. Adobe can presumably start clearing its desk.

Brandon Thomas’s Crafting Apps give that excitement something to work with. People can download the tools, inspect the source code, and find their way around familiar interfaces.
