Swiss retailer <a href="https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/samsung-galaxy-a25-5g-128-gb-blue-black-650-dual-sim-50-mpx-5g-smartphone-40057696">Digitec</a> recently shared key insights into the upcoming Samsung Galaxy A25, confirming a price tag of CHF 279, approximately $320 or &euro;300. This disclosure also solidifies the device's scheduled shipping date on December 18, specifically for the 6/128 GB memory variant.
The listing, <a href="https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_a25_store_listing_confirms_launch_date_and_price-news-60844.php">as reported by GSMarena</a>, sheds light on a second version of the Galaxy A25 that is in the works. This alternative model is expected to feature 8 GB RAM and 256 GB storage, though its availability in Switzerland remains unconfirmed, with prospects of it reaching other countries.
<a href="https://www.technobezz.com/news/samsung-s-galaxy-s24-series-leaks-showcase-s-pen-s-sleek-design/">Leaks and reports</a> indicate that the Galaxy A25 will support 5G connectivity and house an Exynos 1280 chipset. Boasting a 6.5&rdquo; OLED screen, the device cleverly integrates the fingerprint scanner into the side power key for user convenience.
One notable feature is the substantial 5,000 mAh battery, complemented by 25W charging support. However, Samsung has chosen not to include an adapter in the retail box, providing only a USB-C cable for charging. As the launch date nears, the Samsung Galaxy A25's competitive features and <a href="https://www.technobezz.com/news/samsung-s-style-makeover-galaxy-s25-set-to-redefine-the-look/">user-friendly design</a> is becoming a notable contender in the smartphone arena.

<a href="https://www.technobezz.com/i-os-17-rumors-and-concept-showcase-exciting-features-ahead-of-apple-s-announcement/">Apple's new iOS 17.2 update</a> has left music fans feeling disappointed because the Collaborative Playlists feature in Apple Music, has been taken out. This means people won't be able to use it until at least 2024, which is a long time to wait.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The feature, first revealed during Apple's WWDC in June, initially appeared in the beta version of iOS 17.2. But it was suddenly taken out in the fourth beta version, indicating that Apple is dealing with some problems. <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2023/12/05/apple-music-collaborative-playlists-delayed/">Insights from 9to5Mac suggest</a> that Apple decided to pull collaborative playlists from iOS 17.2 due to concerns about potential abuse and spam. To counter these challenges, Apple is introducing new measures, including limiting the number of "pending requests" a playlist owner can entertain.
This has made users wonder about what kinds of problems could happen. To make a collaborative playlist, users need to turn on a feature that lets them control who can use it &ndash; this is important to prevent any bad behavior. Without this control, playlists could be open to unauthorized changes, spam, or harmful content. Apple's work to make playlists more secure and give users more control seems really needed in this situation.&nbsp;&nbsp;<img style="font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; width: 644px;" src="https://cdn.technobezz.com/c/Apple_Music_Collaborative_Playlist_feature_e376bccc2b/Apple_Music_Collaborative_Playlist_feature_e376bccc2b.jpeg" alt="" width="300px" height="200px" />
The problem is even worse because people were really looking forward to Collaborative Playlists being <a href="https://www.technobezz.com/news/apple-s-latest-crucial-updates-keep-your-devices-safe-from-web-threats/">an important part of iOS 17.</a> But since the year is ending soon, it's increasingly unlikely that this feature will be included in iOS 17.2. People are guessing about when the next updates might come out &ndash; maybe there will be a smaller update before the end of the year, but the big changes will probably wait for iOS 17.3. Looking at how Apple released previous versions, it seems like the first test version of iOS 17.3 might not come out until next year.&nbsp;&nbsp;
As Apple deals with these problems, it's obvious that <a href="https://music.apple.com/us/browse">Apple Music</a> users are really unhappy. The fact that Collaborative Playlists aren't in iOS 17.2 shows that Apple didn't keep the promises they made before. People are hoping that Collaborative Playlists will come back in a later update, but they might have to wait until iOS 17.3 for it.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Meta AI Unlocks Creative Chats and Expands Possibilities

<a href="https://blog.google/technology/ai/google-gemini-ai/#sundar-note">Google has just released its newest and most amazing artificial intelligence model</a> called Gemini. This is a big deal for the company because people have been wondering how they will make money with AI. Gemini comes in three versions:&nbsp;
<ol>
<li>Ultra, which is the biggest and best.</li>
<li>Pro, which is good for lots of different things.</li>
<li>Nano, which is great for specific tasks and mobile devices.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
</ol>
Starting on December 13th, developers and business customers can use Gemini Pro through the Gemini API in Google AI Studio or Google Cloud Vertex AI. Also, Android developers will be able to use Gemini Nano. Gemini will also be used in Google products like&nbsp;<a href="https://www.technobezz.com/google-s-bard-ai-tool-now-helps-developers-with-programming-tasks/"> the Bard chatbot </a>and the Search Generative Experience, which gives conversational text answers to search questions. It's still being tested, but using Gemini for this, shows that Google wants to make searching more like having a chat with someone.
Gemini's performance has been rigorously tested, demonstrating state-of-the-art results across a wide spectrum of tasks. One of the key breakthroughs of Gemini lies in its native multimodal design, ensuring a comprehensive understanding and reasoning capacity across diverse inputs. Its remarkable ability to extract insights from extensive data sets promises groundbreaking advancements in fields ranging from science to finance.&nbsp;
Gemini Ultra has surpassed human experts on complex language and reasoning benchmarks, showcasing its exceptional capabilities in massive multitask language understanding. It combines expertise in 57 disciplines, including math, physics, history, law, medicine, and ethics. This achievement demonstrates Gemini's ability to comprehend nuances and reasoning across complex subjects.

&nbsp;
Google Research and other diverse teams collaborated significantly in developing Gemini. CEO Sundar Pichai pointed out that Gemini can work with different kinds of information like text, code, audio, images, and videos very easily because of its multimodal nature.&nbsp;&nbsp;
In comparing Google's Gemini with <a href="https://www.technobezz.com/news/microsoft-s-copilot-getting-boosted-with-gpt-4-turbo/">OpenAI's GPT-4</a>, Google's model is clearly better on many tests. Gemini can understand and work with different kinds of information like videos and sounds. This multi-sensory approach allows Gemini to process diverse types of information seamlessly, leading to a richer and more varied output.

&nbsp;
Moreover, Google cares a lot about being open and safe, so <a href="https://www.technobezz.com/news/google-delays-launch-of-ai-model-gemini-what-you-need-to-know/">they tested Gemini</a> a lot to make sure it's safe. They will explain more about how Gemini works in a special document. The company also wants everyone to know that Gemini works better than its older version, PaLM 2.&nbsp;&nbsp;
At the same time, Google has made a new and better chip called the tensor processing unit (TPU v5p) for training AI models. This chip works faster and better than the old one and is like what Amazon and Microsoft are doing with their own special chips for AI.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Sundar Pichai, Google's CEO, said that Gemini is a big step forward and will open up lots of new options for people and businesses. Putting Gemini into Google's system will change how AI is used, and this is an important moment for the company's AI plans.
By launching Gemini, Google is proving that it's serious about making AI better in a careful way. This shows that Google is moving forward in the AI world, and it might become a big competitor in AI.&nbsp;&nbsp;
