According to reports, Google is working on an AI Mode for its Search platform to provide users with a conversational interface for searches instead of the topicsummarizing AI Overviews feature. Like the Gemini chatbot interface, the AI Mode will offer followup query alternatives, relevant URLs, and contextual information. Google intends to compete with OpenAIs ChatGPT, which is said to have significantly more active users and increase user engagement by incorporating Geminis capabilities into Search. The feature may improve Search engine functionality, which is anticipated to handle both voice and text prompts. Though its release date is unknown, AI Mode, which sits beneath the text field on Search, may help close the gap between search and conversational AI. Read More..

Apple to Begin Mass Production of M5 Chips in 2025 with TSMC’s Advanced 3nm Tech

Apple plans to use TSMCs advanced 3nm semiconductor node N3P for increased efficiency and performance when it massproduces its M5 chip family in 2025.

Apple plans to use TSMCs advanced 3nm semiconductor node N3P for increased efficiency and performance when it massproduces its M5 chip family in 2025. According to reports, the M5 chip will use 5–10% less power and perform 5% better than its predecessor, the M4. To save 30–50% of space, improve thermal performance, and reduce throttling, future M5 Pro, Max, and Ultra models will use a "servergrade" SoICmH design, integrating circuits horizontally. Apple may divide the CPU and GPU designs on the M5 processor to maximise performance for each and improve AI capabilities. With this invention, Apples chip architecture has advanced significantly, perhaps leading to notable processing power and efficiency improvements. Read More..
