Microsoft wants Cortana to do for the workplace what Alexa did for the smart home24 September 2018, 1:14 pm
In the span of a few short years, voice has taken center stage in the smart home. Thanks to advancements in natural-language processing that spawned digital assistants like Siri and the breakthrough gadget that was the Amazon Echo, it’s now a totally normal thing to talk to your house — for tasks as varied as setting timers to arming security systems.

Light-hearted 'Bumblebee' trailer leans in on the wider Transformers universe24 September 2018, 12:46 pm
Bumblebee appears to mark a shift in tone for the Transformers movies. It looks more light-hearted and kid-friendly. The titular Autobot star, a playful mute who speaks through radio soundbites, embodies the qualities of a loyal puppy more than it does an intergalactic hero. But this is still Transformers, and the latest Bumblebee trailer recognizes that. Familiar robo-faces from both sides of the Autobot/Decepticon conflict pop up here, including a brief appearance by Optimus Prime himself....

The best UK deals for Monday: Epson projectors, Ecovacs robot vacuum cleaners, Hive thermostats, and more24 September 2018, 9:51 am
Sept. 23 marks the official beginning of autumn. It might be just the change we need as Storm Bronagh ensured we ended this summer on a very wet note. Whilst the forecast for this autumn is for a relatively sunny and mild season, what lies beyond that looks absolutely horrible.
