Check Out The Offer
In one of my previous deal posts, I told you about a phenomenal Prime Day offer on the Sony WH-1000XM5 , which slashes a whopping $152 off the price . That lets deal hunters treat themselves to a pair for just under $249 — a bargain price for all the bells and whistles these puppies bring to the table. So, if you've missed it, be sure to check it out.However, if $249 still feels a bit too steep, I think I've found a deal that might tickle your fancy. You see, the WH-1000XM5 aren't the only heavily discounted, high-end Sony headphones. Their predecessors, the WH-1000XM4 , are also on sale for Prime Day. Amazon is offering them at a massive 45% discount, allowing you to save $155. This means you can currently get a pair for south of $194 if you don't dilly-dally and pull the trigger on this deal now!To be honest, scoring a set of headphones that were among the best on the market when they were Sony's flagship cans for just under $194 sounds like an unmissable deal to me. Not to mention all the value these puppies deliver.For instance, they offer high-quality sound with strong bass and clear highs. Of course, you can also tailor them to your taste via the EQ in their companion app. On top of that, they feature high-end ANC, which is rivaled only by Bose's premium headphones. This means you'll enjoy a mesmerizing listening experience without pesky noises.Another selling point of these fellas is their comfortable design, featuring soft earpads and a headband with thick padding, allowing you to enjoy long listening sessions without experiencing ear fatigue. And you'll indeed be able to blast songs for hours on end, as they offer up to 30 hours of listening time on a single charge. In addition, they boast fast charging that gives you up to 5 hours of playtime with just a quick 10-minute top-up.For me, the Sony WH-1000XM4 are a steal at their current price on Amazon. So, if they fit the bill for you, save with this deal now while you can!

AT&T CEO Stankey says the carrier needs to embrace change and disruption

AT&T CEO John Stankey wrote a long memo to "All AT&T Managers" on Friday in which he tried to get workers to understand that some of their thinking was "misaligned with the strategic direction of this company." Business Insider was able to obtain a copy of the note, which included Stankey's thoughts on the results of AT&T's employee engagement survey. The CEO, discussing the telecommunication firm's demand that workers return to the office for all five days of the workweek, told his employees that they must follow what the company tells them to do or else get a new job. The note was written to show workers just where their "professional expectations" may be "misaligned with the strategic direction of this company," Stankey wrote, "If you are of the small minority that shared comments similar to, 'I have heard this nonsense before and I'll ignore things until this goes away…' or 'things were just fine the way they were…' there might be a disconnect between you and your current professional choice." The survey was responded to by more than 99,000 AT&T employees, which works out to 73% of the telecom giant's workforce. Stankey's memo made it known that 79% of the respondents felt committed and engaged with their work. The point of the survey seems to be to find employees who haven't bought into AT&T 's business philosophy and warn them that they might be better off leaving. "We run a dynamic, customer-facing business, tackling large-scale, challenging initiatives," Stankey wrote. "If the requirements dictated by this dynamic do not align to your personal desires, you have every right to find a career opportunity that is suitable to your aspirations and needs." What brought all of this up were changes made to the AT&T work schedule. The company replaced a hybrid work calendar that allowed employees to work from home some days of the week with a stricter mandate that requires them to work in the office each and every day of the five-day workweek. Mentioning the RTO (return to office) orders in the memo, AT&T 's Stankey wrote about his employees' "right to expect to work in a professional, well-maintained, and functional facility." Some AT&T workers told Business Insiders that with the RTO chaos, it became difficult for those returning to the office to obtain office desks and parking spaces. Verizon used AT&T 's RTO mandate as a way to entice AT&T employees who'd rather work from home to take a job at Verizon . -John Stankey, CEO, AT&T AT&T 's CEO says that the RTO transition is a shift away from "loyalty, tenure, and conformance with the associated compensation," to "a more market-based culture —focused on rewarding capability, contribution, and commitment." Stankey presented change in general as something that a company needs to experience to stop it from becoming irrelevant. Stankey said that while there are many who don't like the idea of causing disruptions at companies, he said that he couldn't find another firm more than 100 years old (like AT&T ) that didn't need to disrupt itself to remain relevant. So let the disruptions begin at AT&T .

Apple's incorrect assumption about the public and AI chatbots is holding Siri back

There are times when you have to wonder what Apple has its finger on because, occasionally, it isn't on the pulse of the public. A good example of this was mentioned by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman in his weekly online Power On newsletter. For some reason, perhaps for self-preservation, some Apple employees in the tech giant's AI group came to the conclusion that there was no reason why Apple should develop a ChatGPT-style chatbot for the iPhone. According to today's report, top executives in both the software and marketing units in Cupertino came to the conclusion that there is only limited consumer interest in chatbots. Perhaps what Apple isn't seeing is that chatbots like ChatGPT and Gemini are great at answering your queries, something that Siri fails miserably at. The problem is that chatbots can't set timers and alarms or handle any tasks related to your phone. ChatGPT can be installed on your iPhone from the App Store. | Image credit-Phonearena Apple does allow Siri to hand off questions it can't answer to ChatGPT if the user agrees to this on a question-by-question basis. But the responses from ChatGPT are limited. If you rely on the Siri/ChatGPT combo to answer your questions requiring what Apple calls "world knowledge," you might be better off installing the ChatGPT app and using it for all your queries. You'll get more in-depth answers from the app than the responses that come from Siri/ChatGPT. In addition to ChatGPT, another app to install on your iPhone is Google's Gemini. Another area where AI makes a great tool is Search. Eddy Cue, Apple's Services chief, testified in court that search via AI is where things are headed. Of course, Apple is in no hurry to replace Google, which pays Apple approximately $20 billion a year to be the default search engine on Apple devices. The DOJ might have something to say about this deal, and it is expected that the Justice Department will put the kibosh on the arrangement. This is quite worrisome for Apple as Cue says that growth in the Services unit is connected to the Apple-Google partnership. Back in June, Gurman wrote that Apple was looking at teaming up with AI app Perplexity, whose iOS app is available through the App Store by tapping on this link. Its App Store listing says that Perplexity will allow you to "Cut through the clutter and get straight to credible, up-to-date answers." That's something that Siri users have always wanted from the digital assistant. With nearly 230,000 reviews from iOS users, the app has a 4.9 score out of a possible 5. Apple has created its own in-house team called "Answers, Knowledge and Information," also known inside the company as AKI. This team has been given the job of finding a new search tool that delivers a similar experience to ChatGPT. Gurman writes that he has been told that the AKI team is looking through in-house AI services to help it complete its task. -Apple ad promoting a job opening The team is said to be developing an "answer engine" that will crawl the web to answer general knowledge queries. Apple is considering developing an individual app in addition to using the answer engine to power Siri, Spotlight, and Safari. Owners of Apple devices can't wait to see how all of this shakes out and whether the tool Apple does create is a big improvement over Siri.
