Elon Musk has announced plans for Grokipedia, an alternative to Wikipedia that will be developed by his artificial intelligence company xAI. The name references Grok, Musk’s in-house AI chatbot, which he describes as a tool designed to search for truth. According to Musk, Grokipedia will share Wikipedia’s encyclopedic structure but will use AI to ensure what he claims will be greater neutrality and accuracy in its content. The decision underscores Musk’s long-running criticism of Wikipedia, which he has accused of leaning toward left-wing political views and failing to uphold objectivity. Those criticisms were recently echoed by Musk ally David Sacks,…

HP’s latest addition to its professional monitor lineup aims to collapse the distinction between ultrawide displays and dual-screen setups. The HP Series 5 Pro Conferencing Monitor is a 49-inch behemoth that prioritizes office use and collaboration tools rather than gaming. Its expansive 5120×1440 resolution effectively replicates two QHD panels merged together, and with built-in functionality that allows the screen to be segmented into multiple virtual monitors, it offers tremendous flexibility for productivity. Users can split the display into a clean 21:9 workspace alongside a secondary section, or divide it further to suit conferencing needs where ultra-wide 32:9 visuals are impractical.…

Intel’s efforts to stage a comeback in the global semiconductor market may soon involve a surprising partner: AMD. After recently announcing a high-profile alliance with Nvidia, Intel is now in talks with its fiercest competitor about producing AMD processors in Intel’s own foundries, according to a report by Semafor. The move would represent a significant shift in the industry, as two rivals consider working together amid intensifying global demand for advanced chips. While the potential agreement has not yet been finalized—and could take months due to regulatory reviews—the deal would see Intel manufacture AMD-designed chips, despite the companies’ rivalry in…

ASRock has long been a familiar name in the PC hardware world, supplying motherboards and components to both consumers and enterprise users. But instead of being recognized for innovation or quality, the company is currently drawing attention for all the wrong reasons: a spate of CPU failures linked to AMD’s latest Ryzen 9000-series chips when paired with ASRock motherboards. With the issue now under the microscope thanks to high-profile coverage, ASRock is making an effort to win back customer confidence through warranty extensions and a renewed PR push. The story began unfolding earlier this year, as reports surfaced of Zen…

Working outside the office has its charms, especially during fall when a warm drink and a café table feel like the perfect work environment. The downside, of course, is running out of battery when outlets are scarce. That’s why carrying a dedicated laptop power bank is becoming essential, and the Baseus Blade 20,000mAh is one of the best options you can buy—especially now that it’s just $54.99 on Amazon (normally $99.99). Designed with laptops in mind, the Blade avoids the bulky, brick-like build that plagues most high-capacity power banks. At just 0.7 inches thick and weighing under a pound, it…
