Deezer will now scan your playlists on other streaming platforms to detect AI-generated music. Deezer was the first of the big streaming services to start labeling AI-generated music. It even offered its tech to other platforms, but it doesn't seem like it had many buyers. Qobuz launched its own detection tech, while Apple and Spotify have opted for a voluntary tagging system.
"No other company has followed our lead yet, so we decided to make it possible for everyone to check if their playlists include synthetic music, no matter which streaming platform they use," Deezer CEO Alexis Lanternier said in a press release. So, since nobody is ta …

The recently reported cyberattack against Tata Electronics is shaping up to be one of the most consequential attacks exposing important trade secrets belonging to Apple and, conceivably, other clients, including a slew of details about the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro. The attack follows May’s assault against key Apple manufacturing partner Foxconn.
World Leaks iPhone 18 Pro
Hackers from the ransomware group World Leaks managed to penetrate systems belonging to Apple’s most important manufacturing partner in India to exfiltrate hundreds of documents, including drop test videos, schematics, design details — even specifics about Apple’s C2 modem design.
Reuters confirmed last week’s Apple Insider scoop that the leaked documents also included the purported board layouts for the iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max, as well as data sheets for the rumored A20 Pro chip.
The data reveals some of this year’s colors, including a red, dark cherry, and gray, and indicate that the basic design remains the same

Tidal's policy could reshape the music industry by prioritizing human creativity, but challenges in AI detection may complicate enforcement.
The post Tidal labels AI-generated music and cuts royalties for those tracks appeared first on Crypto Briefing.
Tidal shared its new policies regarding AI-generated music today and how the platform plans to "protect artists" and "inform listeners."

Apple’s ongoing problems with RAM shortages and higher prices won’t be solved anytime soon, because rapidly accelerating demand for high-end AI memory is devouring the consumer electronics industry.
GoPro has already warned it might go out of business — and the scale of the crunch has prompted analysts to call it an “absolute existential crisis” for smaller tech firms.
An endless night
The whole issue might get worse. Noted Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes the supply/demand crisis will deepen through 2027. He expects up to 20% of the remaining memory manufacturing capacity currently going to consumer electronics could be diverted to feed data centers in the coming year. That’s a message of doom to smaller firms, and the Android market will be eaten up.
It’s lazy thinking to see Apple as a villain in this scenario. The company might have been charging more for add-on memory than market rates, but there were real technical reasons to do so. And while critics might be castigating Cup
