Finally, a color Kindle. Amazon, the dominant force in ereaders, finally brought color eink to its series of devices and weve reviewed it. The Kindle Colorsoft is a solid premium ereader, ideal for readers of comics and graphic novels. The company has upgraded page-turn speed and a handy pinch-to-zoom function makes it easier to fully enjoy detailed images. But at $280, its expensive. More expensive, even, than rival color ereaders. However, its hard to argue against the convenience and ubiquity of the Kindle ecosystem. The library is seemingly endless (with regular discounts on books and titles you plan to read), supplemented by Prime Reading and Kindle Unlimited. If youre tempted, check out our detailed review and comparisons with other ereaders. Mat Smith Get this delivered daily direct to your inbox. Subscribe right here!

Engadget With the Action 5 Pro, DJI finally has a worthy rival to GoPro and Insta360 action cam. With excellent battery life and solid image quality, the only drawback is slightly less-sharp video. However, if low-light performance is key, head straight for the Action 5 Pro. DJIs new action cam costs $350, while the Hero 13 Pro and Insta360s Ace Pro 2 are $400. The DJI beats both in battery life and is on par with its rivals when it comes to stabilization. Continue reading.

Last month at Meta Connect, Mark Zuckerberg said that Meta AI was on track to become the most-used generative AI assistant in the world. The company has now passed a significant milestone toward that goal, with Meta AI passing the 500 million user mark, Zuckerberg revealed during the companys latest earnings call. The half billion user mark comes just barely a year after the social network first launched its AI assistant last fall. Zuckerberg said the company still expects to become the most-used assistant by the end of 2024, though he's never specified how the company is measuring that metric. Metas assistant isnt the only AI tool thats boosting the companys business. Zuckerberg said that AI improvements in its feed and video recommendations have led to an 8 percent increase in time spent on Facebook and a 5 percent increase for Instagram this year. Advertisers are also taking advantage of the companys AI tools, he said, with more than 15 million ads created with generative AI in the last month alone. We believe that there's a lot more upside here, Zuckerberg said. Outside of AI, Metas Threads app also continues to surge. The service now has almost 275 million monthly users, according to Zuckerberg. It's been growing more than a million sign ups per day, Zuckerberg said, adding that engagement is growing too.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/social-media/meta-ai-has-more-than-500-million-users-220353427.html?src=rss
