A 125-billion-parameter AI model is run on a gaming PC with NVIDIA or AMD graphics card, Windows or Linux operating system, and free open-source software. The model chats, writes code and reads pictures without leaving the PC.
We tested 21 US vehicles and found that most contact third-party tracking domains over Wi-Fi, with some apps transmitting sensitive data. Vehicle owners have limited control over data sharing and may face unfair choices between using connected features or stopping vehicle use entirely.
Every charted navigational light on the planet on a night globe you can turn: each one flashing or sweeping at the rhythm printed on the chart. Zoom to a coast, hover a light for its name.
