Netflix is rolling out a new feature called Moments that lets you save, share and easily rewatch certain scenes from shows and movies. So if there's a killer bit in a comedy special that you want a friend to see, or a shocking twist in Squid Game that you can't get enough of, this might be useful. The feature will be mobile-only for the time being. Moments is debuting worldwide on Netflix's iOS app today. It'll be available on Android in the coming weeks. When you see a scene you want to save or share, you just need to tap the Moments button at the top of the screen. It'll be saved to the My Netflix tab. You'll be able to jump back to Moments on your phone whenever you like. Netflix says that episodes and films will start playing from bookmarked scenes when you rewatch them. There's also the option to share a moment on social media platforms or in messages as you create a moment. You can share scenes with friends from the My Netflix tab as well. Netflix has long had social sharing options for episodes and films, but adding an easy way to help users revisit favorite scenes and share them with friends is a smart idea. It looks like the company's take on the clips feature that Twitch and YouTube have offered for several years. There may be more to come from Netflix on this front though, as the company wrote in a blog post that "Moments will hopefully expand in the future, offering even more ways for members to use and enjoy the feature."This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/entertainment/streaming/netflixs-latest-feature-lets-you-easily-share-and-rewatch-your-favorite-scenes-151053954.html?src=rss

Elon Musks social media platform X is home to the Grok AI model, and it just received an update today to help it understand images. Musk showcased Grok explaining a joke in an X post and mentioned that the technology is still in the early stages. Other than that, neither Musk himself or the Grok account elaborated further. Grok now understands images, even explaining the meaning of a joke.This is an early version. It will rapidly improve. https://t.co/gQ5BBISVRc Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 28, 2024 Musk owns xAI, the company that powers Groks image understanding function. You can see Groks six-point explanation of a meme Musk chose for the demonstration here. Thankfully, a premium X subscription is not needed to read Groks explanation. As things stand, Groks image understanding abilities are still subpar relative to ChatGPT, as the joke explanation reads somewhat off, but its true that Musks AI company is working hard to improve Groks capabilities. That still hasnt prevented Grok from providing misleading information about the presidential election. For now, its best to approach Musks pet AI with a healthy dose of skepticism.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/ai/grok-can-try-and-explain-elon-musks-terrible-jokes-144522210.html?src=rss
