Nothing Phone (3) Essential Space update: What's new and other details
The latest update introduces a key enhancement: Essential Space can now sync with Google Calendar. This integration enables AI-generated tasks and events to appear automatically in selected Google accounts, improving personalisation and simplifying scheduling by letting users manage their calendars directly from Essential Space.
Nothing Phone (3) users can now manually edit AI-generated content within Essential Space. If a task or event is created with incorrect details, users can modify it—whether that means changing a meeting time or updating a task description—offering better control and flexibility.
The Essential Recorder has also been improved. It now allows users to record meetings or conversations, with the AI generating editable summaries and transcripts. These can be exported in multiple formats, including image, PDF, or Markdown.
Moreover, a new 'Flip-to-Record' feature has been added. Placing the device face down automatically starts audio recording, offering a more discreet and user-friendly way to capture important moments.

Tesla's entry into India will drive innovation in the EV insurance market, prompting insurers to rethink product offerings and embrace technology-driven solutions Mumbai Listen to This Article US-based Tesla's entry into India is expected to bring more innovation to the electric vehicle (EV) insurance market in the country, said industry insiders. Tesla's advanced technology features and superior battery quality for vehicles will raise the technology standard, leading insurers to rethink their product offerings in this space.

UIDAI plans to start biometric update of children through schools soon
Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) CEO Bhuvnesh Kumar has said that the platform is working towards starting biometric updates of children through schools after two months, news agency PTI said in a report on Sunday. Currently, over 70 million children are yet to update their biometrics for Aadhaar, said Kumar, adding that it is mandatory for everyone above the age of five years. The technology is currently in the testing phase and is likely to be ready in 45-60 days, Kumar said. UIDAI will be sending biometric machines to each district where they will be rotated from one school to another. Completion of biometric updates If the MBU is done after seven years of age, the person will be liable to pay ₹100 for the update. The process is free between 5-7 years of age. A second mandatory biometric update is required around age 15, to account for physical changes that affect accuracy. Kumar told PTI that UIDAI plans to further extend the project for the second MBU at the age of 15 years. Why Aadhar update matters Updated biometric information in Aadhaar helps improve ease of living by enabling smooth access to multiple services, including school admissions, entrance exam registrations, scholarships, and Direct Benefit Transfer schemes. Enhancing Aadhaar services UIDAI is also working on improving the Aadhaar ecosystem's usability and security. It has introduced features like document upload capability, face authentication, and AI-based de-duplication tools. These features aim to make Aadhaar-based identity verification more seamless. Integration of biometric updates into school systems is likely to make Aadhaar more responsive to the evolving needs of India's younger population.

Microsoft bars China-based engineers from Pentagon support after US scrutiny
Microsoft, a key contractor for the US government, has previously experienced high-profile breaches by Chinese and Russian hackers. It said that it had disclosed its arrangements with China-based personnel to the government read more Microsoft said it will no longer allow engineers based in China to provide technical assistance for US military cloud computing systems, following a report that raised concerns over potential cybersecurity threats and prompted a high-level review by the Pentagon. The move comes after investigative outlet ProPublica published a report detailing how Chinese engineers had been involved in supporting the Pentagon's cloud infrastructure, under the supervision of American 'digital escorts'. These escorts, employed via subcontractors and holding security clearances, were reportedly often not equipped with the technical expertise to detect cybersecurity risks posed by the Chinese engineers' work. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Microsoft, a key contractor for the US government, has previously experienced high-profile breaches by Chinese and Russian hackers. It told ProPublica that it had disclosed its arrangements with China-based personnel during the government's authorisation process. Microsoft spokesperson Frank Shaw said on the social media platform X that the company had modified its procedures 'in response to concerns raised earlier this week … to assure that no China-based engineering teams are providing technical assistance' for services supporting the Pentagon. Review launched, senator raises alarm Earlier on Friday, Senator Tom Cotton, a Republican from Arkansas and chair of the Senate intelligence committee, sent a letter to Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth demanding clarification on Microsoft's reported practices. Cotton, who also serves on the armed services committee, requested a list of contractors using Chinese personnel and more detail on how digital escorts are trained to identify suspicious activities. 'The US government recognises that China's cyber capabilities pose one of the most aggressive and dangerous threats to the United States, as evidenced by infiltration of our critical infrastructure, telecommunications networks, and supply chains,' Cotton wrote. He added that the military 'must guard against all potential threats within its supply chain, including those from subcontractors'. In a video statement posted on X, Hegseth said he had ordered a two-week review to ensure that no China-based engineers were involved in other Department of Defence cloud contracts. 'I'm announcing that China will no longer have any involvement whatsoever in our cloud services, effective immediately,' Hegseth said. 'We will continue to monitor and counter all threats to our military infrastructure and online networks.'
