Fender’s CEO seems to think your bandmates are just analog AI
Edward “Bud” Cole speaks in Japan in 2023. | Image: Jun Sato/WireImage Fender CEO Edward "Bud" Cole gave an interview to T3 in May celebrating the 75th anniversary of the Telecaster with comments on AI and music that initially flew under the radar. But it has started making the rounds recently, pouring more fuel on an already raging fire of bad PR following the company pissing off basically the entire guitar-playing community by sending cease-and-desist letters to builders, claiming copyright of the Stratocaster body shape. Some influential guitar YouTubers have even said they're done buying Fender gear in the wake of the controversy. And Cole's resurfaced comments comparing cover songs and bandmates to a sort … Read the full story at The Verge.
Stop graphing everything: When GraphRAG actually beats vector RAG
If you have built anything with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) in the last two years, you have lived its central frustration: You chop your documents into chunks, embed them, retrieve the top few that look similar to the question, and hand them to the model. For “What was our Q3 refund policy?” This works beautifully. For “What are the recurring themes across two years of customer complaints?” it falls flat — because no single chunk contains the answer.The fashionable fix is GraphRAG: Instead of feeding the model isolated snippets, you first build a knowledge graph of the entities and relationships in your corpus, then use that structure as context. The pitch is seductive. But seductive pitches deserve scrutiny, so I went through the evidence — the original Microsoft paper plus four independent benchmark studies — to answer a simple question: When you swap text chunks for a context graph, do answers actually get better?The short version: Yes, substantially — but only for the righ

Xbox prices are increasing by up to €200 or £170
When Microsoft announced its latest round of Xbox price bumps in June, it only gave US pricing. Now we know the pricing increases for the EU and UK, and they're dramatic. Depending on the model, Xbox prices are increasing by up to 200 or 170. The 1TB Xbox Series X with a disc drive is going up by over 30 percent from 499.99 / 599.99 to 669.99 / 799.99.
