Adobe on Tuesday said it is adding artificial intelligence (AI) technology for generating imagery into Photoshop, its flagship software for editing images. The San Jose, California-based company said it was the start of a major push to add such AI technologies to its suite of programs aimed at creative professionals. While programs such as OpenAI's Dall-E have captured the public imagination by transforming text prompts into images, they have not yet seen wide use by big corporations because of legal questions around the data used to develop the systems. Adobe has sought to address those concerns with a core technology system it calls Firefly , which was specifically created with legal-to-use image data and that Adobe says can be used in commercial settings. Adobe has been testing the system for about six weeks on a standalone website and on Tuesday said it will add features based on it to Photoshop, perhaps the company's best-known product. One new feature will be call

CoinDCX, which claims to cater to 1.3 crore crypto users in India, expanded its services portfolio last year to include a self-custody crypto wallet named Okto. The Indian crypto exchange, after having accessed the recently highlighted security loopholes in the crypto ecosystem, is now deploying safety updates to its Okto platform. CoinDCX has loaded up its new safety features with artificial intelligence (AI) technology. The company felt that existing security measures must be finetuned, especially after 2022 being the worst year on record for cryptocurrency heists, with hackers managing to steal as much as $3.8 billion (nearly Rs. 31,100 crore) despite safeguards. CoinDCX on Tuesday, May 23, claimed that Okto has been integrated with an advanced cognitive AI technology, making it the first ever self-custody wallet infused with AI . In addition, the Okto team has also deployed machine learning (ML) to analyse and monitor patterns in usual and unusual crypto transactions. This laye

Samsung Rollable Flex was unveiled by the company on Tuesday as its latest screen technology for devices with rollable displays. The South Korean conglomerate says its Rollable Flex display can expand more than five times in length — just like a scroll. Samsung says the newly unveiled display technology could be used in mobile devices like tablets and laptops. Other brands like Motorola previously showed off a rollable concept phone  at the MWC 2023 earlier this year, while Samsung showed off four new display technologies at CES 2023. The company on Tuesday unveiled the Samsung Rollable Flex display, which is capable of expanding from 49 mm to 254.4 mm — more than five times its original size. The display can be rolled and unrolled on an O-shaped axis to overcome limitations faced by exiting slidable and foldable displays, according to the firm.  Samsung also unveiled a new Sensor OLED display technology that is capable of recognising fingerprints anywhere on the screen.

Nearly 60,000 outsourced contract workers lost jobs in India's information technology sector in the year ending in March as jobs for flexi workers hired through contractors by companies shrank 7.7 percent from a year earlier, a recruitment body said on Tuesday. "The drop in new employment generation within the IT flexi staffing sector mirrored the global slowdown in IT hiring," said Lohit Bhatia, president of the Indian Staffing Federation, representing over 120 recruitment agencies across the country. However, the hiring in the manufacturing, logistics, and retail sectors remained strong, helped by domestic consumer demand, he said. The $194-billion (roughly Rs. 1,60,661,488 crore) sector whose software services helped businesses adopt pandemic-era practices of online shopping and remote working is facing a slowdown this year as employees return to offices and the Russia-Ukraine war weighs on spending from clients in Europe. A report by JP Morgan analysts warned last

Bing chat has been updated with support for features like chat history, charts and visualisations, video overlays, privacy improvements, and the ability to export answers. Microsoft announced a few nifty upgrades for its generative AI tool earlier this month and has now confirmed that they are rolling out to users. The company announced on May 4 that it was eliminating its waitlist and expanding Bing chat access to all users, and previously imposed limits on asking queries have been silently lifted.

You can also rename, delete, export, or even share a chat thread with other users. OpenAI released its official ChatGPT app for iOS last week, which also features support for conversation history across devices. J
