Microsoft is testing new features for Microsoft 365 Copilot inspired by the open-source platform Openclaw, according to The Information. The goal is to make the AI assistant more autonomous so it can perform tasks automatically on behalf of the user.
The technology behind Openclaw gained popularity earlier this year; it allows users to build AI agents that work more independently on the computer. At the same time, experts have warned of major security concerns about the highly advanced tool.
Microsoft’s solution could, for example, monitor emails in Outlook and a user’s calendar and then suggest daily tasks and priorities. The company is also reportedly exploring AI agents for various professional roles, such as marketing, sales, and finance, where each agent would have limited permissions to reduce security risks.
Microsoft is expected to showcase parts of its work during its Build developer conference in June.

Microsoft has decided to drastically raise the prices of its Surface series computers, according to Windows Central. As a result, the flagship models of the Surface Laptop and Surface Pro now cost $1,499 — $500 more than they did at launch in 2024.
The main reason for the price hikes is tied to the global shortage of RAM, which has made it more expensive to manufacture computers.
It’s noteworthy that Microsoft chose to raise prices on its older models when there are strong indications new models will be released within a few months. The move makes Microsoft’s computers now more expensive than Apple’s equivalents.

W dzisiejszych czasach mobilne kasyna online zyskują na popularności jak nigdy wcześniej. Coraz więcej graczy szuka dynamicznej rozrywki, którą mogą mieć zawsze pod ręką, bez względu na to, czy są w domu, w podróży, czy w przerwie w pracy. Co sprawia, że forma rozgrywki na smartfonie przyciąga tak liczne grono użytkowników? Po pierwsze – szybkość i łatwość dostępu. Mobilna wersja kasyna pozwala zanurzyć się w świecie gier praktycznie od razu, bez konieczności długiego oczekiwania czy instalowania dużych programów.
Przede wszystkim, mobilne kasyna zostały stworzone z myślą o intuicyjnej obsłudze na małych ekranach. Menu, przyciski oraz wszystkie funkcje są zaprojektowane tak, aby działały płynnie i były łatwe do znalezienia. Nawigacja jest szybka i prosta, co znacząco podnosi komfort użytkowania. W praktyce oznacza to mniej frustracji i więcej czasu na zabawę.
Równie istotne jest to, że gry ładowane są szybko, nawet przy przeciętnym połączeniu internetowym. Dzięki temu nie tracimy płynności rozgrywki, a emocje związane z ruchem automatu czy kręceniem ruletką pozostają żywe. Dobre kasyna mobilne mają zoptymalizowaną grafikę i systemy, które dbają o jakość bez nadmiernego obciążania baterii czy danych telefonicznych.
Kolejnym pozytywem mobilnej rozrywki są ogromne biblioteki gier dostępne praktycznie na każdym urządzeniu. Znajdziesz tam zarówno klasyczne sloty z owocami, jak i nowoczesne automaty z wieloma liniami wygrywającymi, a także gry stołowe takie jak blackjack, ruletka czy poker. Każda z nich została dostosowana do ekranu dotykowego, dzięki czemu sterowanie jest intuicyjne i przyjemne.
Nie można też zapomnieć o tzw. kasynach na żywo. Mobilne wersje oferują możliwość gry z prawdziwym krupierem w czasie rzeczywistym. To zupełnie inny poziom immersji, ponieważ oglądasz transmisję wideo i masz wpływ na przebieg rozgrywki dzięki interaktywnemu czatowi. Tego rodzaju doświadczenia przekształcają smartfon w mini kasyno, które zawsze masz przy sobie.
Mobilność to największy atut, ale też wyzwanie. Twórcy aplikacji i platform starają się wciąż poprawiać ergonomię i szybkość działania. Często spotykane są rozwiązania takie jak personalizowane konta, synchronizacja między komputerem a telefonem czy powiadomienia o promocjach i nowych grach w czasie rzeczywistym. Dzięki temu użytkownik czuje się stale częścią społeczności i może korzystać z najnowszych atrakcji bez zbędnych kroków.
Co ciekawe, wiele mobilnych kasyn oferuje specjalne wersje gier dostosowane pod mniejszy ekran, z uproszczonymi kontrolkami i czytelnymi animacjami. To sprawia, że nawet przy krótkiej sesji można poczuć pełnię emocji i wciągnąć się w zabawę. Dla wielu osób właśnie ta łatwość i wygoda stanowią o atrakcyjności mobilnego hazardu.
Wybór kasyna online, szczególnie na urządzenie mobilne, może być sporym wyzwaniem. Warto zwrócić uwagę na kilka aspektów, które poprawiają komfort użytkowania. Przykładowo, informacje dotyczące interfejsu i opinii innych graczy można znaleźć na stronach tematycznych. Strona symboltologo.com oferuje wiele ciekawych recenzji i wskazówek dotyczących kasyn w internecie, które można porównać pod kątem mobilności i jakości doświadczenia.
Dobrze jest również sprawdzić, czy dana platforma posiada prosty proces rejestracji i czy dostępne są różne metody płatności dostosowane do urządzeń mobilnych. Wiele kasyn oferuje także wersje mobilne bez konieczności pobierania aplikacji – wystarczy zalogować się przez przeglądarkę, co dodatkowo ułatwia korzystanie z gier na każdym smartfonie.
Podsumowując, mobilne kasyna internetowe to doskonała propozycja dla osób, które cenią wygodę, szybkość i różnorodność rozrywki. Dzięki technologicznym udoskonaleniom świat gier online staje się bardziej dostępny niż kiedykolwiek, a emocje płynące z rozgrywki możesz mieć zawsze pod ręką, gdziekolwiek jesteś.
The French government has decided to reduce its dependence on US technology companies in light of the growing divide between the US and the EU.
The Direction interministérielle du numérique (DINUM), an agency responsible for digitalization issues, has announced that it will soon replace Windows with a Linux-based operating system. Previously, the French government had chosen to replace Zoom and Microsoft Teams videoconferencing apps with Visio, an open-source communication tool.
This appears to be just the beginning of a more far-reaching process to strengthen the EU’s independence from the US, TechCrunch reports.
“DINUM will coordinate a cross-ministerial plan to reduce dependence on suppliers outside Europe,” the agency said in a statement. “Each ministry will be required to develop its own plan by this fall, covering the following areas: workstations, collaboration tools, antivirus software, artificial intelligence, databases, virtualization, and network equipment.”

As growth in the smartphone market slows, Apple, Meta, and others see a new product opportunity in smart glasses — and Apple is reportedly preparing to enter the face race.
It’s important to set expectations for new products. The smart glasses Apple is working on now won’t be augmented reality glasses in the same sense as Vision Pro. They will instead be smart spectacles with built in cameras, microphones, and other sensors. Apple is also working on augmented reality glasses with integrated displays, but we’ll be waiting for a while until those appear.
Imagine a pair of spectacles equipped with speakers, microphones, and cameras that pair with the iPhone and its processor to do useful things such as take photos and videos, provide notifications, deliver directions, play music, or offer up smarter Siri responses. The glasses should be seen as an accessory, just like an Apple Watch and they will not be enterprise products.
What Apple is doing, according to Bloomberg
Bloomberg tells us Apple is testing at least four different designs that it hopes to announce later this year and ship in 2027. The company hopes to introduce something that looks better than any rival smart glasses, thanks to its talent for design. It also hopes to define an iconic appearance, just as the iPod became the definitive design for MP3 players or the iPhone defined smartphones.
It’s typical Apple. After all, the company has arguably perfected the user interfaces for these gadgets with its more expensive systems. So, now it absolutely can focus on the technology, hardware, and hardware design.
Face values
Design excellence also demands these glasses use premium components, which Bloomberg says they will. That means high-end materials such as acetate rather than plastic. It also means the hardware must look, work, and perform better than what anyone else (principally, Meta) has been able to bring to market.
Apple is looking at a variety of designs, which might be available in multiple colors, such as black, blue, or light brown:
Larger glasses with oval or circular frames.
Smaller glasses with oval or circular frames.
Slim, rectangular glasses similar to the frames worn by Apple CEO Tim Cook.
Glasses that echo Ray-Ban Wayfarers, one of the world’s most popular designs.
When are these things coming? The report tells us Apple hopes to announce them later this year but warns they might not ship until fall 2027. (That of course means we can anticipate at least one “Apple to ship product late” headline ahead of that.)
Why it matters
There’s cash to be made. Counterpoint Research says global smart glasses shipments surged 210% in 2024, reaching 2 million units for the first time.
“Smart glasses look set to become the next fast-growing AI edge device, disrupting the traditional eyewear industry as its leading players cooperate with tech companies,” said CitiGroup.
Apple’s main competitor in the space is Meta, which had 82% of the market in the second half of 2025, Can Apple change that? It might well be worth trying, given that some analysts predict the smart glasses market could reach $40 billion by 2030.
All the same, Apple must tread carefully. When Google introduced Google Glass, the people who wore these things were quickly dubbed “glassholes.” Apple will want to avoid opening its customers up to such ridicule — the cool factor is a must for mass market success.
Apple will also be challenged by the need to reassure customers (and everyone around those customers) about privacy. In an increasingly surveillance-heavy environment, in which governments demand back doors into data, it’s probable that many would-be customers will resist the technologies. They will see them as akin to paying for the tools of their own oppression. More fundamental questions also exist: Is it really appropriate to wear these spectacles outside a school, for example?
Time, and the reaction of the mass market, will tell.
