Podcasts about RCS

Apple and Google are finally bringing end-to-end encrypted RCS messaging to iPhone and Android chats. In this episode, Tom Eston and Kevin Tackett explain why that matters, why insecure SMS is not going away anytime soon, and why Signal is still the better choice for truly sensitive conversations. They also revisit the green bubble versus blue bubble debate, platform trust issues, and what everyday users should understand before assuming every text message is private.

The show kicks off with discussion around Apple's latest beta releases for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, visionOS, watchOS, and tvOS. While the updates appear mostly focused on bug fixes and stability improvements, the panel speculates Apple may already be quietly laying groundwork for major WWDC announcements behind the scenes. Vision Pro continues to dominate conversation this week with the arrival of the native Steam Link app, giving users a new way to stream PC games directly into Apple's headset. The panel discusses the growing gaming possibilities for Vision Pro, including PS5 remote play support and whether Apple's expensive headset could eventually become a more serious entertainment and gaming platform. Leaked images of black Vision Pro components also spark speculation about possible future hardware revisions or prototype devices Apple may still be testing internally. Security and messaging updates are another major focus this week. The crew discusses Apple's expanded transparency around CVE security reporting, encrypted RCS messaging support in Messages, and how users can verify end-to-end encryption is active. The conversation quickly turns humorous as the group debates Apple's new alerts for users who max out blocked contacts, leading to stories about spam texts, political messages, and the endless battle against robocalls. On the Mac side, the panel covers the M5 MacBook Air reaching one of its lowest prices yet, making it an especially attractive option for Apple users looking to upgrade. Dave also shares excitement about the massive Virtual OS Museum project, which allows users to explore and run classic operating systems from decades past, including older versions of macOS, Windows, Linux, Atari, and more. The discussion then shifts into AI and Apple's future plans. OWC's upcoming Stack AI hardware generates interest as the panel explores how local AI processing and large language models may shape the future of Mac hardware. From there, the conversation moves into new rumors surrounding iOS 27, including reports of a redesigned Siri experience, a standalone chatbot-style Siri app, Dynamic Island integration ideas, and Apple's ongoing effort to compete in the rapidly evolving AI space. The panel debates whether Apple is truly behind competitors like ChatGPT and Gemini, or simply pursuing a more privacy-focused and ecosystem-driven approach. The crew also spends time discussing Apple's redesigned app icons and the growing confusion surrounding Creative Studio apps like Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro. Jeff Gamet passionately argues Apple has "completely lost the plot" with icon design, while Marty Jencius defends the idea of evolving aesthetics, leading to one of the funniest debates of the episode. Practical user tips round out the show, including how to customize CarPlay layouts, manage widgets and apps, enable 120Hz ProMotion refresh rates on iPhone, and use Apple Wallet driver's licenses in supported states. The panel shares real-world experiences using digital IDs and Apple Pay, including a hilarious story about a cashier insisting Apple Pay users still needed to "pay with money." Finally, the crew previews Macstock 2026 and Creator Camp, encouraging listeners to join the Apple community event this summer. With discussions covering Vision Pro gaming, Siri rumors, AI strategy, CarPlay, Mac hardware, Apple Wallet, and much more, Episode 425 delivers another packed week of Apple news, insight, and entertaining conversation from the In Touch With iOS team.

The panel starts with Apple's 26.5 updates across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Vision Pro, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and HomePod. The group discusses bug fixes, security improvements, wallpaper updates, and Apple's move to allow longer-term app subscriptions with monthly payment options. The conversation highlights Apple's new end-to-end encrypted RCS messaging support and automatic pairing for Magic accessories on iPad after connecting via USB. The panel also emphasizes the importance of installing the updates because of the large number of security vulnerabilities Apple patched, including WebKit exploits and kernel-related issues. Vision Pro discussion includes reactions to visionOS 26.5, subtle under-the-hood improvements, and excitement around a new spatial air hockey game coming soon to the platform. Marty, Eric, and Dave discuss arcade-style air hockey in immersive spatial computing complete with sound effects and airflow simulation. On the Mac side, Jeff Gamet details a frustrating USB accessory issue introduced after updating to macOS 26.5. Wired accessories including keyboards, Stream Decks, cameras, and USB hubs stopped functioning until security settings were adjusted under Privacy & Security. The discussion expands into Apple's enterprise-focused fixes, SMB networking bugs, black-screen startup issues, and unexpected restarts on newer Macs.   The panel also explores several Mac utilities and productivity tools. Jeff discusses Bartender 6 and Bartender Pro, including new notch-focused "Top Shelf" features that turn the MacBook notch into a Dynamic Island-style productivity area. The group also looks at NextPad++, an AI-assisted Mac port inspired by Notepad++, and debates whether AI-generated software development is moving too fast. BBEdit also gets praise as a long-standing favorite text editor for Mac users. Browser privacy becomes another major topic after reports surfaced that Google Chrome quietly downloaded a hidden 4GB AI-related file to Macs. The panel discusses privacy concerns surrounding Chrome, Google's tracking reputation, and alternatives including Firefox, Edge, Safari, and Helium, a Chromium-based browser Jeff recommends because of its strong privacy protections and plugin compatibility. The conversation then shifts to Apple hardware news with improving MacBook Neo availability and Apple reportedly increasing A18 Pro chip orders to meet overwhelming demand. The panel debates Apple's supply chain strategy and whether Apple underestimated how successful the $599 MacBook Neo would become. Additional stories include a new joint satellite venture between AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile aimed at improving iPhone connectivity in dead zones, Intel reportedly testing fabrication of future Apple chips, and reactions to the Steve Jobs commemorative U.S. dollar coin that sold out in minutes. The panel closes with a fun discussion about Ted Lasso actor Cristo Fernández training with a professional soccer team after playing Danny Rojas on the hit Apple TV+ series.

Dans cet épisode, j'ai le plaisir de recevoir Nicolas Bouzou essayiste, économiste et chroniqueur - pour décrypter le mondeéconomique d'aujourd'huiAllez, c'est parti pour ce Finary Talk !---

Every CMO is being told to replace people with AI agents as fast as possible. Keri McGhee, CMO at Attentive, is doing some of that — and deliberately refusing to do other parts of it. The line she's drawn between the two is the most useful rubric we've heard in months. Attentive runs SMS, email, push, and RCS for thousands of consumer brands — a category where the temptation to automate everything is maximum. But Keri's strongest customer-loyalty moment last year wasn't an AI agent. It was a single text from a real human after a graduation dress arrived without its matching belt. 'I will buy a million more things from them.'

Support my Show Sponsor: Best Godaddy Promo Codes Get 1Password Full Summary Cochrane opens the show with a deep dive into Newcastle University’s reversible conductive glue, a water-based adhesive that could finally make electronics recycling economically viable. He frames the e-waste problem first: 62 billion kilos a year, with less than a quarter ever recycled. Then he walks through the silver nanoparticle chemistry, the lead-free angle on traditional solder, and the geopolitical stakes of critical mineral recovery. From there the episode pivots through energy, AI, hardware, open source, data research, space, science, and consumer privacy. A Reversible Conductive Glue That Could Replace Solder A team at Newcastle University has developed a water-based glue that conducts electricity well enough to replace solder. Unlike solder, however, the glue releases cleanly with a quick rinse of acetone or an alkaline bath. The breakthrough relies on silver nanoparticles suspended in a water-based binder. Consequently, components can be recovered intact, opening a viable path to electronics recycling at scale. Co-investigator Volker Pickert framed the second prize directly: solder has the best conductivity, but the best formulations contain lead. China Widens Its Clean Energy Lead A new Atlas Public Policy report shows Chinese firms accounted for 55 percent of $1.1 trillion in global clean energy manufacturing investment between 2019 and 2025. Battery manufacturing alone pulled in nearly half of that money. Meanwhile, U.S. companies have actively retreated from those same industries. With the Strait of Hormuz currently closed, supply chain ownership in solar, wind, and batteries matters more than ever. A separate Ember analysis showed Chinese solar panel exports doubled in March alone. DeepMind’s AlphaEvolve Scores Real Wins DeepMind published an update on AlphaEvolve, its Gemini-powered AI coding agent. The system cut genomic variant detection errors by 30 percent. Additionally, it lifted AC Optimal Power Flow feasibility from 14 to over 88 percent on the electrical grid. AlphaEvolve also found a better cache replacement policy in two days that would have taken human engineers months. Furthermore, it reduced write amplification in Google’s Spanner database by 20 percent. The pattern shows applied AI sticking, not as a chatbot but as a quiet optimizer. Anthropic and Gates Foundation Commit $200 Million Anthropic announced a four-year, $200 million partnership with the Gates Foundation across three pillars. The biggest pillar targets global health and life sciences in low and middle-income countries. Notably, the research scope includes polio, HPV, and preeclampsia. A second pillar covers AI in education across the U.S., sub-Saharan Africa, and India, in partnership with the Global AI for Learning Alliance. Finally, an economic mobility pillar focuses on agricultural productivity and crop benchmarks. Google’s AI Educator Series Launches Free Google rolled out the first 20-plus sessions of its AI Educator Series this week. The free AI literacy training targets the roughly 6 million K-12 and higher education teachers across the U.S. Modules are designed as short, snackable trainings teachers can finish in a prep period or a lunch break. Additionally, stackable workshops let educators build credentials over time. Importantly, the program requires no institutional subscription. Amazon Bedrock Prompt Optimization Goes GA Amazon Bedrock dropped its Advanced Prompt Optimization tool, now generally available across most major regions. The feature rewrites prompts to perform better on specific models and automates prompt migration when switching between models. Furthermore, a built-in evaluation feedback loop lets users benchmark against up to five models side by side. The default judge model is Claude Sonnet 4.6. Consequently, teams can stop hand-tuning string templates and focus on product work. Sponsor: GoDaddy Economy hosting $6.99/month, WordPress hosting $12.99/month, domains $11.99.

Arm AGI CPU and Red Hat Go Production-Ready on Agentic AI Arm and Red Hat expanded their collaboration around Arm’s AGI CPU, which is Arm’s branding for its agentic AI chip family. The deal brings Red Hat Enterprise Linux and OpenShift to the chip as a production-ready stack. Hardware specifications include 136 Neoverse V3 cores, 96 PCIe Gen6 lanes, and 12 channels of DDR5-8800 memory in a 300-watt thermal envelope. Availability lands in Q4 through Supermicro, Lenovo, and ASRock Rack. Intel Becomes McLaren Racing’s Official Compute Partner Intel announced a multi-year deal as the official compute partner for McLaren Racing. The agreement covers the McLaren Mastercard Formula 1 team, Arrow McLaren IndyCar, and McLaren F1 Sim Racing. Trackside edge compute will power real-time race decisions, while Xeon and Core Ultra silicon drive Computational Fluid Dynamics and digital twin work. Consequently, design iterations that once took weeks now collapse to days. The deal puts Intel silicon in front of every CTO watching a Grand Prix. Rust Lands 13 Google Summer of Code Projects The Rust Project landed 13 accepted projects in Google Summer of Code 2026. Out of 96 proposals, a 50 percent jump from last year, the project selected 13. Notably, three returning contributors from prior years are back. Mentors flagged a noticeable share of AI-generated submissions as a growing challenge. Furthermore, the real bottleneck remains mentor capacity rather than funding. GitHub Innovation Graph Maps Digital Complexity Researchers used GitHub Innovation Graph data to predict GDP, inequality, and emissions through the Economic Complexity Index, or ECI. Countries are compared to kitchens; the more variety and sophistication in software output, the higher the score. Germany ranks first, followed by Australia and Canada. The U.S. lands at sixth. However, the dataset only captures public GitHub activity, leaving most proprietary software invisible. NASA and Eta Space Prepare Cryogenic Fuel Demo NASA is teaming with Eta Space on an in-orbit demonstration called LOXSAT, short for Liquid Oxygen Flight Demonstration. The nine-month mission tests cryogenic fluid management techniques required for in-space propellant depots. Launch is no earlier than July 17 aboard a Rocket Lab Electron from the Mahia Peninsula in New Zealand. Successful refueling in orbit could reshape what is possible for deep-space missions to the Moon and Mars. Stealth Magma Surge Under São Jorge Surprises Researchers Researchers in the UK and Spain published in Nature Communications on a 2022 magma surge under São Jorge Island in the Azores. The surge climbed from more than 20 kilometers underground to 1.6 kilometers below the surface. Surprisingly, most of the thousands of earthquakes happened after the magma stalled, not during the climb. Consequently, scientists are calling it a stealth surge and a failed eruption. A primed magma chamber now sits closer to the surface than before. End-to-End Encrypted RCS Begins Rolling Out Apple and Google led a cross-industry effort to roll out end-to-end encryption for RCS messaging. As of May 11, the feature is rolling out in beta on both platforms. Importantly, encryption is on by default and auto-applies to new and existing conversations. A lock icon in the chat indicates active end-to-end encryption. This quietly raises baseline privacy for billions of cross-platform messages. Cochrane signs off with the usual ecosystem mentions: GNC Insider at geeknewscentral.com/insider, the show newsletter, and modern podcast app recommendations at podcastapps.com. The post A Reversible Glue that could Replace Solder #1865 appeared first on Geek News Central.

Analizamos a fondo una de las semanas más intensas para el ecosistema Apple. Desde el lanzamiento de iOS 26.5, que por fin soluciona una deuda histórica con la privacidad en la mensajería RCS, hasta las filtraciones masivas de iOS 27 que prometen cambiar para siempre nuestra interacción con Siri y las apps nativas como Cámara y Safari. También ponemos el foco en la polémica decisión de Apple de eliminar el Mac mini de 256 GB en Europa, una maniobra que eleva el muro de entrada al ecosistema Mac. Además, exploramos el futuro de la computación espacial con las novedades de visionOS 27 y la noticia de que no veremos nuevo hardware de Vision Pro hasta 2028. Cerramos el episodio con el acuerdo histórico entre Apple e Intel y la multimillonaria multa que Cupertino deberá pagar por su gestión de la IA. En este episodio detallamos: - iOS 26.5: El nuevo cifrado RCS y los cambios en la publicidad de Mapas. - Adiós al Mac mini básico: Apple encarece el acceso al Mac en el mercado europeo. - Filtraciones de iOS 27: La nueva Siri y el rediseño de las apps del sistema. - Vision Pro: Novedades de visionOS 27 y hoja de ruta hasta 2028. - Estrategia y Legal: El primer iPhone plegable, el acuerdo de fabricación con Intel y la sanción por Apple Intelligence. ¿Qué opinas del nuevo precio de entrada al Mac mini? ¿Es 512 GB el estándar mínimo aceptable en 2026 o Apple está forzando demasiado el margen de beneficios? Te leemos en los comentarios. Además de las noticias y la opinión acerca de las novedades de la semana, también responderemos a las preguntas de nuestros oyentes. Tendremos durante toda la semana activo en Twitter el hashtag #podcastapple para que nos preguntéis lo que queráis, nos hagáis sugerencias o lo que se os pase por la cabeza. Dudas, tutoriales, opinión y review de aplicaciones, cualquier cosa tiene cabida en esta sección que ocupará la parte final de nuestro podcast y que queremos que nos ayudéis a hacer todas las semanas. Os recordamos que que si queréis formar parte de una de las comunidades más grandes de Apple en español, entréis a nuestra comunidad de Telegram (enlace) donde podréis opinar, preguntar dudas, comentar las noticias, etc. Y aquí no cobramos por entrar, ni te tratamos mejor si pagas. Os recomendamos que os suscribáis en iTunes en iVoox o en Spotify para que los episodios se descarguen de forma automática en cuanto estén disponibles. También puedes escucharlo en Cuonda, tú eliges.

Welcome back to Episode 344 of the Vision Cast! JC kicks things off on this Wednesday, May 6, 2026, with the crew's signature "Doodles!"energy. Though we have a slightly smaller panel tonight, the episode is packed with major tech updates, heartfelt moments, and a massive trip down memory lane!The show opens on a somber note as we send our deepest condolences and virtual hugs to Nora, who shares the heartbreaking news of her father's recent passing. She will be stepping away from the show next week to attend the funeral and be with her family. The team also takes a moment to send thoughts and prayers to Nina and her family following the loss of her precious grandma. Stacy shares her upcoming travel plans, noting she's heading down to Baytown, Texas, and JC makes sure to remind her to check out the legendary Buc-ee's while she's on the road! Donald brings the heat with an exciting progress report on the AI Radio Network and Super Hit Mix Radio. He's been working hard on expanding the smooth jazz selection, though he shares a hilarious struggle with a glitchy Suno modal button on his computer that forced him to buy his credits through the mobile app. The biggest news? Donald used ChatGPT to code an impressive offline player! He plans to sell this system to businesses for $497, allowing them to play AI-generated smooth jazz locally via SD card or flash drive, pre-loaded with up to 500 songs per channel. JC gives a rundown of his week, sharing that his mom is recovering well from a cold after attending a wonderful retreat. He's looking forward to visiting the Washingtonville church campus this weekend and is beyond excited for his upcoming trip to Puerto Rico from July 15th to the 22nd. He promises to record and bring back the beautiful sounds of the native Coquí tree frogs! Also, a massive congratulations goes out to Rachel on the birth of baby Maximo! In tech news, the wait is finally over: Backpack Studio 3.0 is officially live! JC has been testing the beta and breaks down the new AI-generation features for creating custom jingles and sound effects. The pro features are available via an in-app purchase of $11/month or $99/year. JC also touches on the upcoming iOS 26.5 and macOS 26.5 updates, noting that Apple is rolling out RCS encryption for messages.Preston makes a fashionably late grand entrance and shares a fun story about his mom's boyfriend treating him to an A&W root beer and some ramen after escorting him to the bank to pay his rent. The highlight of the evening is a massive, laugh-filled tech nostalgia segment. The crew reminisces about the classic 1-800-555-TELL voice-activated system and the tactile struggles of using a slate and stylus to write braille backward before the days of the Braille 'n Speak. They also dig up memories of the iconic "Steve's Talking Clock"software, laughing about its massive zip file and its distinct chime. The nostalgia trip even crosses into television as they recall the character David Renaldi from the soap opera "One Life to Live," who had ALS and utilized an early computerized synthetic voice to communicate.The episode wraps up with a reminder to check your emails and tune in next week for the highly anticipated Spring VC Talent Show, which promises to be an incredible event. "Doodles!"
