    What’s cooler than being cool? Being cool with an LCD display.

    Corsair’s new all-in-one CPU coolers come equipped with small 2.1-inch displays that let you show off images, animated GIFs, or (most likely) your CPU temps. This isn’t a first for Corsair, but what’s new is that these coolers work with iCUE Link, Corsair’s new connection standard that lets you daisy-chain cooling components off one another for simpler cable management.

    AI doesn’t sound particularly profitable.

    Despite charging $10 a month for GitHub Copilot, The Wall Street Journal reports that Microsoft is losing an average of over $20 per user, per month. This highlights the frankly challenging economics of providing AI services, which are not just expensive to build, but also expensive to operate. “Using [AI] to summarize an email is like getting a Lamborghini to deliver a pizza,” the WSJ notes.

    Apple TV subscribers might get a four-hour cut of Ridley Scott’s Napoleon.

    The director tells Total Film that he plans to release a lengthy director’s cut of the historical epic on Apple’s streaming service. “We’ll screen [the theatrical cut] first with Sony, and then it has its run, and then the perfect thing is that [the director’s cut] goes to streaming, and we have four hours 10 minutes,” he said.

    OnePlus is rumored to be working on a new smartwatch after its rocky first attempts.

    According to leaker Max Jambor, OnePlus is gearing up to release a new smartwatch next year with a round display. It’ll follow the “big, basic, and boring” OnePlus Watch in 2021, and last year’s affordable and India-exclusive OnePlus Nord Watch. Parent company Oppo is also rumored to be working on a round-faced smartwatch of its own, coincidence?
