Skullcandy just revealed a new pair of wireless earbuds, the Method 360 ANC. Interestingly, the company has teamed up with rival headphone-maker Bose for this product. The earbuds have been tuned by Bose and use eartips similar to the ones found with the companys QuietComfort line. This is part of the pre-existing Sound by Bose platform, in which the company helps rivals with tuning and sound quality. The Motorola Moto Buds+ earbuds also include this feature. Otherwise, the Method 360 ANC earbuds seem like a solid entry in a crowded field. They offer ANC, multipoint connections, custom EQ options, wear detection and other bells and whistles. The battery lasts around 10 hours per charge, which increases to 40 hours when considering the charging case. However, this metric is with ANC turned off. There is a quick-charge feature that advertises two hours of use on just ten minutes of charging. This charging case includes an O-ring, so it can be clipped to stuff, and is available in several colors. Skullcandy The earbuds ship with multiple sets of eartips that also use technology by Bose to ensure a secure, ultra-comfortable fit and superior noise isolation. They integrate with the Skull-iQ app, for making EQ adjustments, reconfiguring buttons and changing ANC modes. The Method 360 ANC earbuds are available right now at an introductory price of $100. The cost will go up to $130 later on.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/audio/headphones/skullcandys-new-method-360-anc-earbuds-have-been-tuned-by-bose-230053911.html?src=rss

According to an SEC filing from NVIDIA, the US government now requires companies to obtain a license to export H20 integrated circuits and any other products that achieve the same performance benchmarks. The filing states that "the license requirement addresses the risk that the covered products may be used in, or diverted to, a supercomputer in China." Mainland China is not the only place targeted by this license; NVIDIA will also require permission to sell the H20 to the territories of Hong Kong and Macau as well as to nations with the D:5 designation as US Arms Embargo Countries. The H20 chips are currently the most advanced chips that can be sold to select international markets under present laws and they are powerful enough to be used for artificial intelligence applications. NVIDIA has wanted the ability to retain Chinese customers for these products and last week, it seemed like the company may have gotten a reprieve on new restrictions. However, it appears that the new license requirement "will be in effect for the indefinite future." NVIDIA said in the SEC filing that it now expects to report about $5.5 billion in charges related to "inventory, purchase commitments and related reserves" associated with the H20 circuits in the results for its current fiscal quarter.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/big-tech/nvidia-says-the-us-has-put-export-restrictions-on-h20-ai-chips-224822930.html?src=rss

Two and a half centuries after Josiah Wedgwood perfected Jasperware, with its distinctive matte finish, the British ceramics brand is marking the milestone with a decidedly 21st-century approach. The company has launched Jasper 250 AI, a generative tool that enables anyone to get creative and play with an iconic style of pottery.The initiative echoes a 1930 international design competition when Wedgwood celebrated its founder's bicentennial, which crowned Danish artist Emmanuel Tjerne. Now, participants can share their AI-generated designs across social platforms using #jasper250, with the winning creation to be 3D-printed and acquired by the V&A Wedgwood Collection.Rather than asking people to passively admire tradition, Wedgwood is inviting them to actively collaborate with its legacy positioning AI as a bridge between today's consumers and the brand's heritage. By translating 250 years of stoneware artistry into an accessible digital format, Wedgwood demonstrates how even the most storied brands can allow consumers to mold tradition and make it their own.
