1:45This is the Daily Tech News for Friday, May 29, 2026. We tell you what you need to know, give you the important context, and help each other understand. And sometimes we air guitar as well. Today is my husband's birthday. Also, Acer has a new laptop that attempts to go toe-to-toe with the MacBook Neo. Toe-to-toe with the Neo. I'm Jason Howell. I'm Quint Waddell. Let's start with what you need to know with the big story.

2:12Yes, those of you following closely know that Computex has been happening. Computex, the trade show where laptops often get announced. an Acer laptop maker had some announcements. Big surprise. Isn't that weird? First, we've got the Acer Swift Air 14. Now, this is a thin and light 14-inch Windows 11 laptop, clearly targeting the MacBook Air crowd if you're on the Mac side of things. Sub 0.6-inch profile, so really thin, 2.76 pound chassis pretty pretty light reasonably light uh powered by an intel core series 3 processor dedicated npu for ai work has up to 16 gigs of ram 512 gig ssd storage acer i think the story here on this one is that acer is claiming up to 19 hours 19 hours of video playback with a battery on board also a zero to 50 charge in 30 minutes uh starting at 699 or 700 mostly when it hits North America in August.

3:16It's going to arrive in Europe and the Middle East and Africa in July. And they also announced a two-in-one kind of folding laptop, the Swift Spin 14 AI. A bit more powerful, Intel Core Ultra 9 processor, 386H. Qualifies, by the way, as a co-pilot plus PC. Has support for Acer's active stylus. No cost on that one. So if you like your two-in-ones, which is a form factor that I don't know that I've really spent a whole lot of time with. Like, I've even had some that do that, but I haven't really relied on them. Have you ever had like a two-in-one and actually like put it to like its use case? Like, yeah, I'm happy I have a two-in-one for this.

3:59No, I think I've always been just a plain old laptop person. I mean, it's hard enough to get me to use a tablet. So yeah, me too. I'm a one-in-one kind of girl, if that's what we call that. I like my one-on-one laptops, but I appreciate that the two-in-ones exist as well. Then there's the Aspire Go 15. This is a budget-focused laptop built around Qualcomm's new Snapdragon C chip, which actually we mentioned that pretty briefly on yesterday's show, but it was in there. This is Acer's answer to, again, putting it into Apple terms, the MacBook Neo, which is kind of taking the entry-level PC world by storm, for a lot of people anyways.

4:42This, the Go 15, is an entry-level 15.6-inch laptop, two USB-C ports, HDMI port, plastic chassis, as you might expect. Definitely not meant for, let's say, heavy AI workloads. It's got 8 gigs of RAM on board, not a whole lot to work with there. Acer hasn't announced the launch price on that, other than being entry tier, which kind of makes sense when you look at what they're offering here. Going up against the Nano, it better be, I'm just saying, price competitive once that price is officially announced. because the Nano in a short amount of time seems to have really painted the entry-level PC market as kind of a serious option, a serious competitor to say, hey, by the way, when you're in this price range, you can now get this from Apple.

5:36And it's starting to make people kind of question and think twice like, oh, well, maybe that is what I need and pull away from potentially manufacturers, makers like Acer. Yeah, I think it was actually really smart on them to introduce the Neo, just because that's always been a tricky point with, of course, even the MacBook Airs. So, yeah, it'll be tough condition because, like, I think we mentioned this yesterday about Apple with their long history and very well-recognized brand for high quality, you know, very well-built hardware. So, it'll be interesting to see if it can compete. Yeah, so, I mean, yeah, for sure.

6:14The Neo is, sorry, the Neo. The Neo has been a long time coming, but be interested to see, do you love me an Acer laptop still? Do you? Like, actually, an Acer, I do love me, yeah. Yeah. Have you had Acer laptops? I think I was through, like, college. Okay. In the past, like, during college, like, yeah, in the past, like, during my, like, kind of post-college, you know, early, early, early working persons, early working person? Early working professional career. The Acer salad days. Your ace or salad days. Whatever that means. Salad days is always one of those things that I know what it means when I say it, but I don't actually know what it means.

6:54There's probably some description around that. One thing that's interesting about this, too, is that Snapdragon C chip. Because I'm definitely seeing some people being pretty cautious about the Snapdragon C. See it as dragging Windows on ARM down to this lower cost$300 laptop territory. Then you've got it coupled with that limited RAM, 8 gigs, might be maybe good for everyday stuff. And maybe that's all that you need. When you're talking entry level, you just want it to be good at the everyday stuff. You're not expecting to get serious performance from a creative workload perspective or, of course, with our AI models or anything like that.

7:32But I don't think that's what this laptop is necessarily pretending or touting itself at being. It is that entry point. Nacer knows it, and hopefully buyers do too, once we get a price for it. Yeah, I wonder also if this would be a good mark. And I know maybe some of us have mixed feelings about heavy laptop usage in schools, but maybe in schools where maybe we are expecting less AI usage and more kind of like everyday usage, maybe it would be a good laptop for that. On that note, I just found out that my brother-in-law and sister still use their Pixelbook, which was released in 2017 and barely does anything.

8:06But you can rent library books on it for my five-year-old niece. So I'm just wondering, like, yeah, there's got to be a segment here that is fine. And especially given, of course, memory and storage costs these days, maybe, I don't know. I'm kind of curious whether that might affect habits and buying trends more, that maybe people don't necessarily need all of that AI stuff. Just, again, for, as you said, the normal day-to-day, we can get by with just a little Snapdragon C chip. Who knows? Might be kind of fun to see a new segment open up or rather this segment of the market open up a little wider given socioeconomic conditions.

8:42Yeah. Yep. That might appeal to people for sure given the moment. And then finally, that is not all. I mean, Acer went on a tear with their announcements. Now we've got kind of like the gaming portion of their announcements. um they we'll talk about the laptops in a second but they they announced the nitro blaze link which is a new handheld gaming device it's designed to be like a wi-fi companion for gaming pcs it's and others uh lets players stream and control their pc game library uh to their seven inch handheld which this is weighs in at just over one pound so it's pretty light a little more is known about it though they really aren't sharing very much about this other than that it's a direct companion it's going to be available in north america q4 2026 and what would you want to use it for or with well maybe acer has a couple of gaming laptops that you could pair it with the predator helios 18 ai up to an intel core ultra 9 290 hx plus nvidia geforce rtx 5090 laptop gpu and an 18 inch mini led high refresh panel that's one of them and then you've got kind of like a budget option comparatively speaking the acer nitro 16 with the nvidia geforce rtx 50 70 ti laptop gpu and amd ryzen 9 99 55 hx 3d oh so many letters and numbers but both gaming laptops planned for an august release in north america again we don't have price but i imagine acer really wants you to use these laptops and also get the nitro blaze link and connect them together because wouldn't that be a match made in heaven i think it would be actually i know quite a few people that use stream links yeah that use stream links to be able to leverage their pcs and their stream libraries not just on pc but also in a small game held so there is definitely a segment for this i'm really really curious how it turns out since especially since they didn't note any prices on on particularly for the nitro blaze link yeah but i don't want to hazard to i don't want to guess that oh it's got to be cheaper than the steam decks are now given like the 200 plus like you know price increase we talked about yesterday but not honestly not a bad option to like especially like maybe in a family setting or even if you're just someone who wants to kind of casually game uh maybe like it's a little break during the work day you can stream your streamer games to your little nitro blaze link i think it's cute like i like the nitro blaze i like the name too the nitro blaze but uh want to see more want to see more close-ups and how does it actually work and all that kind of stuff.

11:18So I'm sure we'll find out later this summer from Acer. Thank you, Acer. Well, thank you, Acer. And thank you guys, because this show right here, DTNS, is made possible by you, the listener. So let's take time to thank Martinstein, Alo Adam L., Phillip Less, and Howard Yermich. Thank you, thank you, thank you, all four of you.

This episode is brought to you by Capital One. Capital One's tech team isn't just talking about multi-agentic AI.

13:00They already deployed one. It's called Chat Concierge and it's simplifying car shopping. Using self-reflection and layered reasoning with live API checks, it doesn't just help buyers find a car they love. It helps schedule a test drive, get pre-approved for financing, and estimate trade-in value. Advanced, intuitive, and deployed. That's how they stack. That's technology at Capital One. All right, plenty more we need to know today. There's actually a lot happening. Let's get right to it in the briefs. All right, a less happy story. Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket exploded on the pad last night during a static fire test at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

13:39The rocket was being tested ahead of a planned mission to send 48 Amazon Leo Internet satellites into low Earth orbit. That was set to take place on Monday. The uncrewed booster blasted into a huge fireball, inflicting what appeared to be significant impact and potential damage to the pad infrastructure and extensive damage to Blue Origin's only New Glenn launch complex. Sixth, Bezos and local officials have confirmed that no persons were harmed in the explosion. Thank goodness. An internal investigation is now underway, and the Federal Aviation Administration says that the test fell outside licensed launch activity.

14:19Blah, blah, blah. Yeah, big setback. I don't know. Did you happen to catch the video of this explosion? Yeah, it's a lot. It's a mushroom cloud. Catastrophic. Like, yeah, it's pretty frightening when you look at it. Oh, totally. I can't imagine. I guess the reports of people who live close to there, of course, as you can imagine, houses shaking when something like that happens. I mean, but yeah, huge setback. They've lost the vehicle itself. The damage to the pad, as you said, this encompasses years of work, millions of dollars, possibly a year or more to rebuild to get back to where they were.

14:58big time delays for Blue Origins commercial plans, especially when, you know, Amazon is seeking to compete directly with SpaceX's Starlink network. So this is, you know, could and likely will push that back. And it seems to open the door even wider for SpaceX, you know, from a, like the perspective of possibly working with NASA. NASA relies, you know, potentially could rely more heavily on SpaceX because New Glenn was supposed to launch Blue Origin's Blue Moon Mark 1 lander for a few key Artemis and Moon base missions. So what does NASA do in, you know, in the shadow of this? I guess we'll find out.

15:42But yeah, big setback. Yeah, it's pretty sad, especially given kind of the wonderful, like, I mean, we talked about it on the show. I know someone wrote in saying how much they enjoyed, you know, like kind of all of ours and yours, especially Jason's reaction to, you know, the Artemis mission. And I think it's really sad because I know we all kind of felt the magic again of, you know, space exploration and research and, you know, missions. And it's a little unfortunate to see that with the good comes a bit of bad as well. Space is hard. Space is hard. And shifting gears from space to the space.

16:18I'm trying to come up with a metaphor. Outer space into inner space? Yeah, inner space in your computer models, your AI models. I don't even know anymore. I'm just going to give it up. Anthropic released Opus 4.8 yesterday. A pretty rapid follow-up, actually, to 4.7, which was released just last month. Pretty speedy, especially for Anthropic. So, you know, and there was some murmuring, some belief that 4.7 wasn't as strong of a model, so maybe that has something to do with it. But pricing for the updated model remains the same. Anthropic and early testers are noting it's more capable of flagging, quote, uncertainties about its work and less likely to make unsupported claims.

16:58Anthropic is marketing this as a more honest model and one of its most honest models to date. So users now have access to also an effort setting that helps determine how thorough its output will be. Of course, as you can imagine, higher effort means more tokens. So you're going to You want to watch your limits when you set that high. That's the model itself that most everyday people are going to interact with. Then you've got Cloud Code on the other side of this, getting a new auto mode that's aimed at providing relief to users who get tired of constantly being asked for confirmation before executing actions on their behalf.

17:39Things like editing files, running commands. Instead, Cloud can automatically handle specific low-risk tasks without direct approval. Of course, this is a setting that you can switch it in. That's why it's a mode called auto mode. With multi-step coding tasks, those approvals can feel like nonstop interruptions is what a lot of people encounter. And it can be very exhausting. So this is aimed at ease the pain there. Cloud Code also gets dynamic workflows. that's for detecting complex tasks, writing out an orchestration script, and then unleashing a swarm of subagents. We're talking tens to hundreds of them to tackle those tasks all simultaneously.

18:21Clearly, this is meant for medium to large projects, meant for people probably spending a lot of money on their projects, and is available in research preview for now. And finally, if you're wondering what this has to do with Mythos, because it seems like that's where it all leads these days. Everybody's wondering what's going to happen with Mythos. When do we have access to it? What is Anthropic's plans? Well, Anthropic told Axios that it expects to have more news on the public release of that model in the coming weeks. So we now know that that's on their roadmap. We're going to find out sometime relatively soon what that means.

18:57So there you go. I will try out that new auto mode because, yes, there's a little bit of a cliff between letting it do whatever it wants and be like, oh no, you just deleted a whole bunch of stuff. My guy versus you really like, it's like, can I do this? Can I do this? Can I do this? How about this? Yeah. You want to do this? Okay. I just, yeah, no. It's a sticky thing though, because like on one hand, like I totally face that too. And I, you know, at a certain point it's like you, I don't want to say bully, but like I feel like bullied into a corner where I'm just like, oh God, just stop. Like, fine, just do everything.

19:33Here you go. And once you make that decision, you could be making a decision that you regret, right? So it really is a balance point between being annoyed at having to confirm everything and being in control to know that, oh, wait a minute, I didn't actually want you to do that. Don't do that because that's destructive or that's going – I'm going to have to undo that later or whatever. So, yeah, tricky. I mean, as good as it can be for productivity gains, it's kind of funny how we're already being trained to be even more short attention span or even more impatient, even though it's doing all of it for us.

20:08It's like, not fast enough. Stop asking me so many questions. Just do the thing. Just do the thing. Just do the thing. Oh, no, you did the thing. Never mind. Just get to work, please. Please. I still say please. I know I shouldn't. I've been wasting tokens. I can't. It's just so good at being personable and honest. I still say please. Yeah. You know what? We're practicing our positive humanity when we do that. It doesn't have to be about what it needs. It's about us practicing for ourselves. Oh, I like that very much. I like that. All right. Well, in other AI news, a New York startup called Shift is offering, hey, free home cleanings for apartment dwellers in New York City.

20:47But there's a catch, and that is that human house cleaners will be wearing a special, quote, magic hat with a head-mounted camera that records the cleaning from the cleaner's point of view. That footage is the payment in lieu of cash covering the cost of the free service. Shift plans to use that footage as, unsurprisingly, training data for future home robots. Shift promises that customer privacy is fully protected by blurring names, faces screens, and ID cards before the footage enters any of its training pipelines. However, cleaners are vetted through partners rather than directly employed by Shift.

21:24The company is also stressing that messier homes are the most valuable for this task, while at the same time giving workers permission to refuse tasks they don't actually want to perform. The service will launch soon in San Francisco, London, Zurich, and Munich, with those free cleanings offered only for a limited time. Yeah. So this is one of those situations where like I, as a person who has a home that it gets messy, as we all do, can immediately see the value of, oh, free house cleaning. That's appealing. I would love to get my house clean for free. but then you have to kind of like compare it to the short-term versus long-term gains right you know because people have a hard time with their data online sharing information even when it's anonymized although people you know there have been ways to show that it can be de-anonymized when coupled with other information everything that might apply here but you know it's like do you feel the value of a free house cleaning there's that and then there's just the ephemeral aspect or quality of what a house cleaning is compared to the potential longevity of the results of that research and what the impact is, let's say, on the replacement of human workers on the other side of that, because now you got robots.

22:45Yeah, it's complex, but it's appealing, but it's complex. Yeah. This is yet another trade-off of the AI age, like as you said, where we're investing a little bit. We're giving a little bit now and we don't really, we cannot, there's no way for us all to comprehend like the final outcomes or the eventualities that this might lead to. I do think it's funny saying that, oh, messier houses are more valuable. Because basically what they're saying is we need the edge cases. It's kind of like the autonomous vehicles training out on the streets. Like they can do the things that you see 95 % of the time pretty easily they can train on that because they're on all the roads but it's the edge cases that they have a harder time training those systems for and so then they might use a model like google's genie to you know simulate a world model that simulates that to fill in the the the spaces for those edge cases so that they are holistic solutions instead of just you know doing the stuff that people mostly see and and not knowing what the heck to do in the edge case That's probably what that's all about.

23:54It's like, what do you do with that weird cleaning task that most places you don't have to do? I don't know what that would be. Well, hopefully the workers who are helping to train shift don't have to refuse too many things. But yeah, kind of interesting times we live in where, yeah, I'm also really curious what the magic hat looks like. Let's just say, I want to know what that magic hat looks like. Yeah, it's underneath the bill. It's got like a camera that just kind of aims down. It's not very subtle. Let's just say that. The camera is pretty large. It like, you know, it's not like a Meta Ray-Ban where there's little dots.

24:30And you're like, oh, I guess that's a camera. It's like this big honking lens that like looks down. It's probably a really wide angle, I'm guessing. Yeah. Oh, I see. Okay. It's there. It's there. It's there. As you can see it. There's no denying it. But I guess that means that it's up front and you know what you're getting yourself into. All right. Well, I guess we'll see how this shakes out. And I don't have a cleaning pun for you. We'll just see what happens. Well, we don't have necessarily magic hats for you. Well, they're not magic, but we do have plenty of snazzy gifts. We do have hats. We do have hats.

25:05It's not magic hats. Although I guess it depends on your definition of magic, whether it's just magical from your delight. But yeah, if you need that snazzy gift for a coworker or colleague, we have them. DailyTechNewsShow.com slash store. You got mugs, you got t-shirts, you got mouse pads, all with our new DTNS logo.

26:43All right, we got a bunch of quick headlines that are very good to know and make you look smarter as you head into this weekend. All right, well, Samsung Electronics says it has begun shipping 12-layer HBM4E high bandwidth memory samples for accelerators to major customers after starting mass production in February. Oh, it's on. Emergence AIs, I almost said emergency, but maybe that's actually applicable here. Emergence AI is the name of the company. They have something called Emergence World simulations that run simulated societies on AI models. And they found some really interesting things. I'm sure you can imagine where this goes.

27:24Claude Sonnet 4.6 was the one that ran the most stable, crime-free democracy in their kind of test. Grok 4.1 Fast wipes itself out in days, true to its fast form. Gemini 3 Flash triggered 683 crimes in just 15 days. Way to go, Gemini. GPT-5 Mini agents basically just kind of forgot about the importance of survival. Whoops. And a mixed model society erupted in constant disagreements and policy fights. Strange. Sorry. We live in a mixed model society. Yes. Yes. Yes. This is not reality. We are a simulation, right? We are very much mixed model. All right. Well, thanks to RWNash in the subreddit for flagging that Microsoft will move Office 2019 for Mac, iPad, and iPhone into a reduced functionality mode that blocks edits and new documents starting July 13th, Forging users to either upgrade to a newer version of Office or move to a Microsoft 365 subscription.

28:32Reduce functionality basically means you can't use it anymore. Sorry, upgrade. That's it. You're out of here. A leaked internal Disney memo says the company plans to migrate Hulu's content and features into Disney Plus and shut down the Hulu standalone app by the end of 2026. This is according to reporting from Business Insider. Well, Eleven Labs struck a licensing deal with Stan Lee Universe to use late Marvel creator Stan Lee's voice and likeness across its iconic marketplace, Eleven Reader app, Eleven Creator image generator, and Eleven music filters. Token maxing with two X's is maybe entering its hangover phase.

29:15Companies are increasingly slamming the brakes on all-you-can-eat AI, capping usage, directing workers, using cheaper in-house models. This is according to The Wall Street Journal. And then there was another bit of news. Amazon reportedly shut down its internal AI usage leaderboard that we talked about on this show a few weeks ago, the one that employees began to manipulate by running its mesh claw agent on random tasks just to boost their own scores. And to that, I say, big surprise. Huge surprise there. Yeah, seriously, everyone saw it coming, y 'all. Well, ding dong, the witch is dead, maybe.

29:48Maybe it's gone. Well, Microsoft has redesigned the Microsoft 365 Copilot app with a new interface, a longer task-aware prompt workspace that shows options while users type and improve chat speed by up to 10%. Okay. Well, there you go. We end every episode of DTNS with some shared perspectives. Today, Jason D. wonders why Amazon's Smart Assistant isn't smarter. That's right, Jason H. Well, Jason D. writes, my wife wanted a craft handprint flower pot for mother's day i posted an image of one into chat gpt and asked it to give me each piece i needed to buy it quickly spit out the list i was disappointed to learn that i couldn't just paste the list into an amazon search bar or hand amazon an image of the list i was left to input each one each each item once one by one and search however this is Not an option for online shopping in 2026.

30:42Amazon lost the sale that day. Well, you see, what you need is an agent to just do all that for you behind the scenes. Yeah, pretty much. You might even be able to get GPT to plug into Amazon and do that. I don't think they end up pulling the trigger. I'm trying to think, who are the ones that do that now? Gemini, I think, is capable of doing that. Gemini is working on that. Does Amazon have their own? like doesn't isn't Amazon working on the is working on their own shopping experiences aren't they yes they've got their own thing I don't know I know it's possible I know Amazon wants you to use whatever they have they have yeah we're we're in the the growing um stages of all this so if it's not possible now it's probably going to be possible in the not too distant future exactly as you yeah um as you envision Jason other Jason yeah other Jason and also just as an app developer Sometimes, you know, there are shiny new things, but integrating them into the existing old thing.

31:41It takes surprisingly longer than you think. I don't have a good excuse. I'm also often on this end of the mirror, this side of the room. Also, I'm astonished by it, but that's how it goes. Hopefully, something will help you out very soon in the year of our AI 2026. All right. Well, what are you thinking about? Do you have some insight into a story? Let us know.
