WD and Samsung have only just jumped on the PCIe 5.0 gaming SSD bandwagon, but the next generation of super-fast drives is already waiting in the wings. A new PCIe 6.0 SSD from Micron has just been demonstrated at the Computex tradeshow in Taiwan, and its potential speeds are immense.Of course, none of the best gaming motherboard designs for desktop PCs feature PCIe 6.0 support yet, and the PCI Special Interest Group (PCI-SIG) hasnt even started certifying PCIe 6.0 devices yet, so it will be a while before this Micron tech makes it into your gaming rig. Even so, its cool to see the tech that could be used in the top-speed SSDs of tomorrow this far in advance.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard left me conflicted. On one hand, seeing Thedas brought to life so beautifully, and finally getting to visit regions Id only heard about in lore snippets and storybooks, was a dream come true. On the other hand, its narrative - what, for me, made the series so special - felt weaker than its predecessors', and the action-driven combat never quite gelled. Yet it worked for many others, earning largely solid reviews that weren't far off the now-lauded Dragon Age 2. But there's been an air of sadness or finality over the game since its launch, with no expansions on the horizon - a first for the series.

Star Wars Battlefront 3 has long felt as far out of reach as fellow theoretical third entries such as Half-Life 3. The original Pandemic and Lucasarts games only managed a pair, and EAs Battlefront 2 was met with a mixed reception at launch thanks to its microtransaction model. Post-launch support from EA and DICE, however, took great strides to improve it, and it now holds an 87% positive Steam rating. As player counts soar in the wake of Andor Season 2, a former developer says his team want to get the gang back together to make Battlefront 3.

It's been a massive week for AI, as some of the main players made several big announcements. Google I/O 2025 might have been the expected highlight, but Microsoft also hosted its Build conference a day earlier.After the first I/O day, we got an unexpected AI shock on Wednesday when OpenAI confirmed it's developing its own hardware in partnership with Jony Ive's new startup, io. OpenAI acquired io for $6.5 billion and is moving forward with plans to launch a ChatGPT companion device by late 2025.People were still discussing OpenAI's big hardware push on Thursday when Anthropic dropped the Claude 4 family, its best and most powerful AI models to date. But Claude 4's improved abilities took a backseat to a major controversy related to AI safety.It turns out Claude 4 Opus will attempt to contact authorities and the press if it thinks you're doing something illegal, like faking data to release a new drug. This scenario comes directly from Anthropic, which described other unusual behaviors that led it to trigger the highest security protections for users.For example, without these protections, the AI might help people make bioweapons or develop new viruses like Covid and the flu. In tests, Anthropic also found that Claude 4 might resort to blackmail in scenarios where it thinks it will be deleted and has blackmail material available.Continue reading...The post Claude 4 AI will try to report you to authorities if it thinks youre doing shady stuff appeared first on BGR.Today's Top DealsTodays deals: $399 iPad mini, $188 Vizio surround sound, $32 Thermacell mosquito repeller, moreTodays deals: $150 AirPods 4 with ANC, $30 JBL speaker, $55 Ring Battery Doorbell, $279 Miele C1 vacuum, moreTodays deals: $189 Apple Watch SE, 15% off Energizer batteries, $144 queen memory foam mattress, moreTodays deals: $15 Amazon credit, $480 AirPods Max, $60 Instant Pot Duo, $228 Sony XM4, more

ChatGPT, OpenAIs text-generating AI chatbot, has taken the world by storm since its launch in November 2022. What started as a tool to supercharge productivity through writing essays and code with short text prompts has evolved into a behemoth with 300 million weekly active users. 2024 was a big year for OpenAI, from its partnership []

The state was to require increasing sales of zero-emissions cars and passenger trucks starting in 2026.

As generative AI becomes faster, cheaper, and more convincing, the ethical stakes are no longer theoretical. What happens when the tools to deceive become widely accessible? And how do we build systems that are powerful but safe enough to trust? At TechCrunch Sessions: AI, taking place June 5 at UC Berkeleys Zellerbach Hall, Artemis []
