Nvidia’s GPU Technology Conference isn’t making many waves for gamer or PC hardware crowds this year, perhaps because it seems to be exclusively interested in boosting hardware for “AI” and data centers. So it’s almost ironic that a phony version of the keynote livestream reportedly relied on generative “AI” to fake CEO Jensen Huang and send viewers to a cryptocurrency scam. A YouTube channel calling itself “NVIDIA LIVE” started a livestream shortly after the real Nvidia event began, which users on Twitter reported was a deepfake video of the CEO promoting a “crypto mass adoption event.” A QR code was posted on screen that sent viewers to a site that would reportedly turn their cryptocurrency around for a profit (instead of just stealing it, which was almost certainly what was actually happening). Tom’s Hardware quotes the fake Huang: “We’re postponing the main talk for just a moment to announce something truly special, a crypto mass adoption event that ties directly into Nvidia’s mission to accelerate human progress.” A speech-to-text transcript of the fake video rambles on with cryptobro buzzwords before claiming that any supported cryptocurrency sent to the linked wallet would be converted into Bitcoin and returned. That would mean Nvidia would be giving away billions of dollars to anonymous nobodies, apparently for no reason aside from “human progress.” So yeah, even if you couldn’t see through the deepfake video or voice, you’d have to be a few GDDR modules short of an RTX 5090 to fall for it. Reportedly the fake stream had almost 100,000 viewers at one point, more than eight times that of the real Nvidia livestream, thanks to being higher in YouTube search results for at least some portion of time while the real keynote was taking place. Exactly how many people were suckered isn’t clear. The video is long gone, of course, though the small-stakes YouTube user who reportedly hosted it is still visible. In the actual keynote, the real Huang was announcing a billion-dollar investment in former phone giant Nokia and waxing about humanoid robots. GTC moved from its usual San Jose home to Washington, D.C., apparently in the hopes of a little drive-by lobbying to the Trump administration. There’s something amusing about an Nvidia CEO’s image being used to fool people into a crypto scam, since Nvidia chips were the hardware driving the crypto bubble, and indeed are now being used in much the same way for generative “AI.” Read...

When I was allowed to test the Remarkable 2 in 2020 and the Remarkable Paper Pro in 2024, I was hooked: It just felt right and I’ve only worked with these tablets ever since. Admittedly, they are very minimalist and quite expensive. But when it comes to the best writing experience on an e-ink screen, there’s no way around the Remarkable tablets. I’m admittedly a Remarkable fanboy. And this fanboy was allowed to let off steam again with the brand new Remarkable Paper Pro Move. A Remarkable Paper Pro that you can stick in your back pocket, so to speak. If you are not yet familiar with Remarkable tablets, then I advise you to read on. You’ll be surprised how good it can feel to write on a tablet. reMarkable Paper Pro Move: Unboxing and first impressions The Remarkable Paper Pro Move has arrived and the packaging is similar to its predecessors, only much smaller. The Remarkable Paper Pro Move is here, with Book Folio. Jérémie Kaiser As soon as you unpack it, you realize that the Remarkable Paper Pro Move is no ordinary tablet. It comes in high-quality packaging that immediately conveys the feeling of holding a premium product in your hands. Remarkable Paper Pro Move: Unboxing Jérémie Kaiser Everything looks well thought out, from the design to the accessories to the first switch-on. Since I know the Move’s big brother, I can already say that the tablet is a slim e-ink tablet that has been specially developed for paperless and distraction-free work, such as writing, sketching and editing documents (e.g. adding annotations to a PDF file). The writing experience is almost paper-like and all content created on the tablet can be saved in the cloud and edited synchronously on different Remarkable tablets. reMarkable Paper Pro Move: Design Like its big brother, the Remarkable Paper Pro Move is a slim and minimalist e-ink tablet with 64 GB of memory. It measures 7.7 x 4.24 inches and is very thin at 0.26 inches, but slightly thicker than the Paper Pro. At 0.51lbs, it’s almost half the weight of the Remarkable Paper Pro though. The Remarkable family: Remarkable 2, Remarkable Paper Pro and Remarkable Paper Pro Move. Jérémie Kaiser The casing remains true to the familiar design: simple, modern and in a subtle grey. Magnets on the back hold the Book Folio securely in place, while fine longitudinal grooves on the sides ensure a non-slip grip. Paper Pro Move: The design has remained the same, only smaller. Jérémie Kaiser Paper Pro Move: The feet are also magnets for the Book Folio. Jérémie Kaiser The Marker Plus with spare tips. Jérémie Kaiser The USB-C port is located—as usual—at the bottom left, the on/off switch at the top left. The supplied Marker Plus adheres magnetically to the right-hand side of the device, where it is also charged wirelessly. reMarkable Paper Pro Move: Display The display is 7.3 inches in size and has a resolution of 1696 × 954, with 264 PPI. The newcomer also relies on E-Ink Gallery 3 technology, which allows the tablet to display up to 20,000 colors. Touch function is available. The resolution is high and the lines are clear and precise as usual. It should be noted that the tablet is not designed for professional illustrations, but is ideal for sketching drafts, ideas or templates. The backlighting of the display is marvelous. This makes it easy to read or write even in the dark. The lighting can be adjusted in five levels, from completely off to brilliantly bright. These levels can be set to “extra bright” in the settings. However, the backlight is difficult to activate in complete darkness if you’ve previously forgotten to switch it on. The tablet’s response time with the pen is 12 milliseconds. Pressure sensitivity is available. And another highlight: if you make a mistake, you can either tap the display with two fingers to undo it or use the back of the marker as an eraser. The canvas color display is particularly low-reflection and produces colors using millions of microscopically small ink particles. These consist of the colors white, cyan, magenta, and yellow and are precisely controlled for each individual pixel. reMarkable Paper Pro Move: Software and functions Anyone who already owns a Remarkable will find the new Paper Pro Move easy to use: scan the QR code, enter the code and all documents and settings are automatically transferred. The tablet runs the Linux-based Remarkable OS (version 3.22.0.65), which receives regular updates for new functions and greater stability. Various tools such as ballpoint pens, pencils, calligraphy pens, and markers are available for writing. In addition to black, grey and white, there are six additional colors. Several layers facilitate illustration work in particular. Various tools such as ballpoint pens, pencils, calligraphy pens and markers are available for writing. Remarkable In addition to the backlighting, the handwriting-to-text function is another highlight. This is ideal for processing handwritten notes in Word. However, speech recognition remains a weak point: mixed texts in German and French still lead to errors. Paper Pro Move supports PDF and ePub files, enables handwritten notes, text search, and clear file management. Documents can be tagged, sorted and bookmarked—ideal for anyone who wants to work in a structured way. Thanks to cloud synchronization, all notes can also be accessed on a PC, app or other devices. Services such as Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive make sharing easier. The Remarkable Paper Pro Move also offers numerous templates, such as lined pages, calendar layouts, or sheet music, and can be secured using a PIN code. reMarkable Paper Pro Move: Battery The Remarkable 2 and Remarkable Paper Pro had an excellent battery life. Even after a month and a half without using either of them, there was still enough power to continue working immediately. The Paper Pro Move is also impressive in terms of battery life. According to the manufacturer, the battery can be charged from 0 to 90 percent in just 45 minutes and lasts around two weeks in normal use—and even up to 90 days in standby mode. A long-term test is still pending, but after five days of intensive use, the battery was only one bar out of five. reMarkable Paper Pro Move: Accessories The Book Folio is a custom-fit protective cover for the Remarkable Paper Pro Move. It reliably protects the tablet without restricting its use. The robust material closes magnetically, holds the device securely in place and makes it easy to remove. When closed, the Remarkable automatically goes into sleep mode and is reactivated when opened. There is a loop on the right-hand side to prevent the marker from falling off. The Book Folio is available in three versions: Premium Leather in black or brown, Mosaic Weave in basalt, burgundy, or cobalt and Polymer Weave in grey. The Book Folio in several versions.

You’ve probably heard of Grammarly, the AI spelling and grammar checker. But with a rebrand, a consolidation, and a new AI agent, Grammarly now fact-checks your business communications using what it knows about current context. It’s difficult to describe this iteration of Grammarly, now renamed Superhuman, and its suite. (Fortunately, the company put together a short GIF describing how it works, which is embedded below.) Essentially, the Superhuman suite and its Superhuman Go app run various agents against your own (or AI-generated) copy, correcting any mistakes you inadvertently made about a variety of topics. Consider this example: you’re emailing a coworker, Erica, about a sales call to be held tomorrow at noon. If you misspelled “Erica,” you’d expect that it would be underlined, indicating an error. In this case, if the meeting was moved–and if Superhuman was connected to your Google Calendar–it would underline the meeting time and suggest you rewrite it with the new time instead. If the subject of the call changed, this too would be highlighted, as long as the CRM service was looped in. The Superhuman suite is fact-checking your email, but it functions more like a spellchecker. Superhuman The Superhuman suite includes Grammarly, the Superhuman Mail program, the Coda all-in-one workspace, and the Superhuman Go AI program, which connects all of them together. It certainly isn’t cheap; Superhuman is charging $25 per user per month for a Starter subscription, with a more advanced Business sub that pulls in some additional features. However, the Go features will be free at no additional cost through Feb. 1, 2026, and the technology will be available to Grammarly and Superhuman suite users on Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Windows and Mac users will add the new Go capabilities “soon,” Grammarly said. The Superhuman suite allows users to move between the apps themselves, such as the Superhuman Mail interface, the Grammarly AI writing tool, and the Coda workspace. But the secret sauce will be the agents themselves. Superhuman is launching an agent store where users can download specific agents. These include Google Workspace tools, Microsoft Outlook, Atlassian Jira, and Atlassian Confluence, available today. Some partner agents are designed for specific tasks, like Fireflies, Common Room, Latimer, Parallel, Radical Candor, and Quizlet, which are also available today. The premise is familiar: connect more agents to the applications, give them access to more of your data and, supposedly, your productivity will improve. Superhuman and some of the available agents.Superhuman Grammarly/Superhuman said that “nothing changes” in terms of the products and their privacy protections. “The company does not sell or monetize user content, ensures users are in control of their data and own what they write, and does not allow its third-party service providers to train their models on user content,” the company said.

First, there was generative AI, allowing creators, editors and memelords to create artificial worlds with just a few words. Now, Adobe is offering the ability to edit those worlds with Prompt to Edit, a new feature within Firefly plus audio. Photoshop is also adding generative upscaling and a “harmonize” feature, too. Adobe announced the new capabilities at its Adobe MAX conference, where it typically rolls out new capabilities within its Adobe Creative Cloud suite as well as Firefly, its AI image generator — which now includes soundtracks and AI voiceovers. Obviously, users have the ability to use Firefly to create entirely new images or use one of Adobe’s other tools to make edits to the finished product. But Prompt to Edit is probably one of the more interesting additions to Adobe’s set of tools. Firefly’s Prompt to Edit capability is generally available to customers today, Adobe said. However, it remains to be seen how effective it is and how much Adobe will “charge” in terms of image credits. Firefly’s new capabilities also include new models from ElevenLabs and TopazLabs, and the ability to create 4-megapixel models, which means images up to 2560×1440 pixels. Until December 1, however, that’s a moot point. Adobe will allow unlimited AI image generations as well as the Firefly Video model until then, the company said. Adobe added a Firefly Video Editor in private beta, which includes a timeline editor for trimming and organizing clips, with the ability to add start or end frames. Users will be able to perform edits using the video editor or via a text transcription. Concept art of Adobe’s new music soundtrack generator.Adobe Firefly users will also be able to add a soundtrack, too. Adobe is debuting the commercially safe Firefly Audio Model for background music as well as the Firefly Speech Model (plus another from ElevenLabs) for voiceovers. This comes as OpenAI reportedly is thinking about its own music generator. Suno, a dedicated AI music generator, also released an updated “4.5 All” model to the general public on Tuesday. Adobe also previewed “Project Moonlight,” an AI assistant which sniffs out a creator’s social channels and makes recommendations based upon the existing content. Photoshop, Premiere, Lightroom add AI improvements Adobe’s additions to Photoshop include generative upscaling and a new “harmonize” feature. Generative Upscale is a feature that Topaz Labs has offered for years; image upscaling is also built into Windows, though you’ll need a Copilot+ PC to enable it. Essentially, upscaling takes a low-resolution photo or image and intelligently adds pixels to it, effectively turning it into a more detailed image. Adobe says that you’ll be able to create up to 4K images using the new feature. Harmonize also uses AI to blend people or objects into new scenes, which very much sounds like the traditional “Photoshopping” of images that the online community has embraced. Harmonize is used for “matching light, color and tone for natural, realistic results—completing the bulk of the compositing process,” Adobe says. Photoshop is also adding Google Gemini 2.5 Flash Image, Black Forest Labs FLUX.1 Kontext and Firefly Image Models to its Generative Fill capabilities. All of these are available today. Adobe doesn’t seem to have added the Prompt to Edit capability to Photoshop yet, but the company did show off a “limited private beta” of an AI assistant in Photoshop that appears to offer similar changes. It’s an improved version of tools like Copilot Vision in Windows. Adobe is testing an AI assistant for Photoshop.Adobe Meanwhile, Adobe is adding an AI Object Mask to Premiere, a public beta. The technology “automatically identifies and isolates people and objects in video frames so that they can be edited and tracked without the need for manual rotoscoping,” Adobe said, “Object Mask makes the process of color grading, blurring and adding special effects to a moving background quicker and easier.” Finally, Adobe is testing “assisted culling” in Lightroom, which will assess and pull out the “best” images in a collection, using focus, angles and sharpness as metrics.

The smart home product manufacturer Xthings has announced that its latest Ultraloq Bolt Z-Wave smart lock has achieved Z-Wave Plus V2 certification. We’ve long appreciated the Ultraloq series for its diminutive proportions, measuring 2.95 inches square, with its numeric keypad encircling its key cylinder (and on some models, but not this one, a fingerprint reader). Similarly compact industrial designs are used in models with Wi-Fi radios and NFC readers, but this latest edition of the Bolt Z-Wave is powered by a Z-Wave 800 chip. When paired with a Z-Wave 800-powered smart home hub, the latest Ultraloq Bolt Z-Wave smart lock promises range of more than 1,300 feet. The lock is also backward-compatibile with any previous generation of Z-Wave hub.Xthings Ultraloq That silicon endows the Bolt Z-Wave with very long range—up to 1,300 feet, according to Ultraloq—and improved ability for signals to penetrate building materials. But you’ll need a Z-Wave smart home hub to bridge the lock to your home Wi-Fi network. To that end, the new lock is certified to work with hubs from Alarm.com (a SaaS provider powering dozens of independent home security service providers) as well as the DIY-oriented hubs from SmartThings and Home Assistant. The lock is also backward compatible with older Z-Wave hubs, although you won’t get the same incredible range with hubs equipped with older Z-Wave hardware. Z-Wave Plus V2 certification also means the lock can be set up by scanning a QR code via the manufacturer’s SmartStart technology, and that it supports Z-Wave S2 128-bit AES encryption for enhanced security.   Ultraloq’s “anti-peep” technology helps guard against burglars learning your PIN code by watching you unlock the lock or by lifting telltale fingerprints left on the numeric pad. Simply enter random digits before and after your PIN, and they won’t be able to guess what it is. You can grant temporary access to short-term rental guests, service providers, or contractors with time-limited PINs that are valid during the date and time they’re authorized to have access to the property. The Ultraloq Z-Wave with Long Range Support smart lock is available now for $179.95. This news story is part of TechHive’s in-depth coverage of the best smart locks. Read...

As an IT expert, I’m used to building digital fortresses. Firewalls, virus scanners, complex passwords, two-factor authentication: My tech life is a high-security zone. I thought my physical home was, too–at least until I went into my garage one morning and realized the brackets for my planned solar-panel installation, which had been stored on a pallet in front of it, were missing. Foil cut, opened, and stolen. In the middle of the night. After the initial anger and the police report, my rage gave way to cool analysis: It was time to invest in more security. But my goal was to spend less than $500. Burglars are at their peak in autumn The risk of burglary increases dramatically during the darker months of the year, when dusk can set late in the afternoon. The darkness provides criminals with the anonymity they need to operate undisturbed. Contrary to the cliché, burglars don’t just come in the middle of the night, but specifically exploit the evening hours between 5:00 and 9:00 p.m., when unlit windows signal that no one’s home. While the FBI reported an 8.1 percent decline in property crime in the U.S., it still tracked an estimated 5,986,400 property crime offenses in 2024. Fortunately, many of these offenses get stuck at the attempted stage, often due to existing security technology at the scene. This was the decisive motivation for me to act to protect my own property from future losses. My security product selection My plan was to create a smart and networked system that would act as a deterrent and immediately raise the alarm in the event of an emergency. I chose an expandable alarm system from X-Sense, one of the best-rated providers on Amazon, as the central control unit. Amazon The X-Sense AS08 is a wireless smart home security system with four door/window sensors, two motion sensors, a numeric keypad (for arming/disarming) and a base station that connects everything to the internet. It costs less than $140. You can conveniently control your home remotely via the app or with Alexa. With a 100dB alarm, real-time notifications, simple installation, and up to five years of battery life, the X-Sense system offers reliable protection and flexible expansion options. See the X-Sense AS08 at Amazon The visible presence of cameras alone often acts as a deterrent. For outdoor use, I opted for the weatherproof Reolink Argus 4 Pro Wi-Fi camera with night vision and motion detection. Christoph Hoffmann This 4K surveillance camera normally costs around $180, but it’s nearly always on sale for less: $145 at Amazon as of this writing. Thanks to the solar panel and rechargeable battery, the surveillance camera is independent of electricity. As soon as someone enters my property, I receive a push notification on my smartphone and can call up the live stream. Christoph Hoffmann See the Reolink Argus 4 Pro at Amazon For the interior of my home, especially on the ground floor, I have placed two inconspicuous Reolink E1 Pro indoor cameras for a total expenditure of about $90. They cover the entrance and living area and deliver razor-sharp images even in low light thanks to their 3K resolution (2,880 × 1,616 pixels) and large F1.6 aperture. These cameras are easy to set up, thanks to their Bluetooth and dual-band Wi-Fi connectivity (2.4-/5GHz), and their auto-tracking pan/tilt functions capture every movement. AI-based detection reliably differentiates between people and pets, and they even recognize baby noises. Christoph Hoffmann See the Reolink E1 Pro at Amazon Another feature I like about Reolink’s security cameras that they can connect to a central storage and management device that eliminates the need for a subscription to store video in the cloud. The Reolink Home Hub ($100) acts as a central management and storage solution for up to eight Reolink cameras. The Reolink Home Hub comes with 64GB of onboard storage, but it also has two microSD card slots, each of which can handle user-provided cards offering up to 512GB each.Michael Ansaldo/Foundry Whether you use its ethernet port or its onboard Wi-Fi 6 adapter, you’ll get smooth 4K live views and fast transmission of recorded video. A dedicated siren alerts you when it detects uninvited guests. See the Reolink Hub at Amazon What you can and cannot monitor with an outdoor security camera or video doorbell? When installing cameras outdoors, the legal situation is clear. You are only allowed to film your own private property. Public areas such as pavements or roads and neighbors’ properties are off limits. Even if these areas are only recorded slightly, this can constitute a violation of personal rights with legal consequences. An inexpensive sign warning that your property is subject to video surveillance can also act as a deterrent to potential offenders, and it might even be required by law (check your jurisdiction). Such a sign also ensures transparency, while creating a bond of trust with your neighbors. And if you need to use a recording as forensic evidence of a crime, it should be admissible in a court of law. It’s a small effort that can have a big protective impact. Even more security with smart sensors For me, a comprehensive security concept does not end with burglary protection. Fire, smoke, water, and invisible gases pose just as great a threat. That’s why I expanded my setup with additional X-Sense component. Since I already have the X-Sense SBS50 base station, these security add-ons cost me just 130 euros. Instead of relying on individual stand-alone solutions, the manufacturer offers networkable smoke, heat, and carbon monoxide detectors as well as water-leak sensors. And as an added bonus, some of the can be integrated with the X-Sense SBS50 base station in the home security system I mentioned earlier. TechHive has favorably reviewed the X-Sense XS01-M interconnected smoke alarm system. I use that system myself as well as the X-Sense XH02-M Interconnected Smart Heat Alarm and the X-Sense SWS0A Ultra-thin Smart Water Leak Alarm. The interconnected advantage: If a detector in one room triggers an alarm, the signal is relayed to every other sensor of the same type that you’ve installed in the house. So, if there’s a water leak in the basement, you’ll get a warning even if you’re in the attic (assuming you installed a sensor there, of course). Some of the sensors don’t require the base station. Those then don’t have this interconnected feature and work independently. But the X-Sense smartphone app will sends notifications about alarms, battery level, and test status, so you’re informed at all times. Up to 12 family members can access and manage alarms via the app. See the X-Sense SX01-M smoke alarm at Amazon See the X-Sense XH02-M Heat Alarm at Amazon See the X-Sense SWS0A Water Leak Alarm at Amazon Beware the Wi-Fi trap If your Wi-Fi network goes down, many smart cameras and sensors will lose their connection to their smartphone app and/or the cloud. Live transmission and push notifications will no longer possible. Devices with local storage–such as cameras with microSD card slots–will continue to record video. As soon as the connection is re-established, that data will be synchronized and the events transmitted accordingly. Systems that rely exclusively on cloud storage, on the other hand, stop working completely, as they can neither stream nor record without a connection to internet. The recent Amazon Web Services debacle is a case in point. The behavior of smart sensors depends on whether they are connected to a base station or operate solely via Wi-Fi. Sensors with their own wireless connection to a base station, as is the case with many security hubs, continue to function even without Wi-Fi, and they will trigger alarms locally. More sophisticated home security systems–read about TechHive’s top picks in home security system–have hubs that establish back-up internet connections via cellular connections should your regular broadband connection fail. Independent wireless sensors will also remain active, but they will only emit local alarms, such as tones or voice warnings. To avoid the so-called Wi-Fi trap, you should therefore look out for devices with local storage, integrated alarms, and secondary wireless connections, so your home remains reliably protected in the event of an internet failure. Goal achieved! My total expenditure for all the devices listed above? Just $403. Smart home protection doesn’t have to break the bank.
