    Nvidia has some new Super GPUs ready.

    Nvidia is heading to CES next week to announce some new 40-series GPUs. A new teaser makes it clearer than the various leaks that Nvidia has some GeForce announcements to make. We’re expecting to hear about a new RTX 4070 Super, RTX 4070 Super Ti, and even an RTX 4080 Super. All the cards have been heavily leaked in recent weeks, so all that’s really left is to make them official on Monday January 8th.

    Microsoft Edge is now an ‘AI browser,’ apparently.

    Microsoft has been adding more and more AI features to its Edge browser over the past year, and now the company is branding it the “AI browser.” The naming now appears on iOS and Android versions of Edge, and if you search for Edge in Apple’s App Store you’ll likely see an ad that highlights all the AI-powered features. It looks like 2024 is going to be another big AI push for Microsoft.

    The best way to welcome Europeans to Threads.

    It turns out you can use Threads’ new hashtags to troll people into clicking “show more” and actually doing a tag search instead. Threads launched in Europe today, so as these newcomers get used to a new social media home, make sure you drop a show more post into the mix. It’s harmless fun that will probably get lost in all the new conversations about fine wine, great Italian food, and the British moaning about the weather again.
