Amazon is calling for people to support AI data center projects, or risk irreparable harm to the US economy and national security.

Apple’s reportedly developing a smart home camera that doesn’t record video
Apple's rumored push into smart home tech could include a smart home security camera that only gives users text event descriptions instead of video footage. Mark Gurman said in the first episode of the Power On podcast that the camera will be part of "a new Apple smart home ecosystem," alongside Apple's rumored smart home hub: They're also building home security products, both first-party and third-party home security products. And the biggest thing is a program called J450. And this is an offshoot and a companion product to the J490 smart home display. And these are little cameras that you can put around your house. They have very low fr … Read the full story at The Verge.
