Battery tech simply has not kept pace with other advancements, and our increasingly data-hungry lifestyles mean many models fail to last a full day of moderate use.
The issue has given rise to a spin-off industry of add-on battery packs from the likes of Mophie and Anker.
But a number of start-ups think they have a better solution, as the BBC’s North America technology correspondent Richard Taylor reports.

    Should have just bought something like a Samsung S5 instead of that iPhone and you'd just be able to change the battery!

    If you care so much about battery life don't buy shit like the iPhone 6 when you can buy a Xperia Z3 or Droid Turbo.

    Nonsense. Just stop buying phones with FullHD displays with tons of pointelss "features". You don't need quad-core for calling, sending messages or browsing a facebook…

    overcharging might cause the "made in chna" battery to explode during use. kind of like the "made in chna" "takata airbag ignitors"  buy made in the u.k. bring the jobs home.

‘Is Anthropic the new Dr Frankenstein?’ | BBC News

Published

on



AI Decoded speaks to leading tech podcaster Scott Galloway about the growing controversy surrounding Anthropic’s latest AI model, Claude Mythos.

During testing, the system uncovered thousands of hidden vulnerabilities in the software underpinning most of the world’s computers — prompting Anthropic to decide it was too dangerous to release.

The company says Mythos can outperform humans at certain hacking and cyber‑security tasks, raising fresh concerns among regulators, lawmakers and financial institutions about the risks to global digital infrastructure.

Also on the show, we reveal how US students are changing their majors at university in order to ‘AI proof’ their future careers and how nearly half of Gen Z would like to turn back the clock to the late 90’s before AI was even a thing.

Joining Christian Fraser is the BBC’s AI correspondent Marc Cieslak and AI Decoded co-host Priya Lakhani.
