A new Pew Research Center study published Tuesday says 54% of teens between 13 and 17 years old use chatbots for school assignments. A previous study from 2024 had usage at 26% and in 2023 the number was 13%. The survey of 1,458 teens showed 44% used AI for school “some” or “a little” and 10% for most or all assignments. Outside of homework, 47% of teens used chatbots for fun, 42% for summarizing all types of content, and 12% for emotional support and advice. In a survey with parents of the teens, only 18% said they’d be comfortable with teens using chatbots for emotional support and advice, with 69% ok for kids using it for entertainment, and 79% for searching for information.

Apple is rolling out an update to its age assurance tools to comply with restrictions in place in Brazil, Australia, and Singapore, as well as in the US for upcoming law changes in Utah and Louisiana. The update to the Declared Age Range API, now in testing, will perform a check in the App Store automatically, though developers may also need to confirm users are adults. The API will further assist devs to identify when age requirements and parental approval apply.

On Tuesday federal US District Judge Rita Lin in San Francisco dismissed a lawsuit from xAI accusing OpenAI of stealing trade secrets. The suit claims former xAI employees took Grok source code and other confidential information with them when joining OpenAI. In the dismissal Judge Lin noted the absence of allegations of misconduct by OpenAI itself, only the employees, and xAI has the option to refile. A separate suit of xAI suing former engineer Xuechen Li alleging taking trade secrets to ChatGPT is ongoing.

The UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) fined Reddit £14.5 million (approximately $19.6 million) over failure to apply a “robust age assurance mechanism”, resulting in Reddit illegally using the personal information of users under 13 years old. The ICO fine follows the previous issue of provisional findings against Reddit from July 8, 2025. Reddit will appeal the fine and criticized the ICO for demanding more collection of private information.

Researchers from the American Institute of Physics developed an experimental technique for detecting smartphones that have been tampered with or contain hidden modifications from a distance, without needing to physically examine a device. The method involves scanning a phone’s radio component when transmitting signals, comparing transmissions to the device’s normal fingerprint to detect any changes. Future use cases include the scanning of phones entering secure areas and ensuring devices for resale are unaltered.

A new app called Nearby Glasses can warn users if people nearby may be wearing smart glasses, like Meta’s Ray-Bans. The app is currently available through the Google Play Store or GitHub and searches for specific Bluetooth signatures, sending a push notification when detected. Developer Yves Jeanrenaud said he was inspired to make the app after reading reports from 404 Media of people using smart glasses to harass others and the potential upcoming facial recognition features. After being notified about smart glasses in proximity, the Play Store page states a user “may act accordingly.”

Apple to Build Mac Mini in Houston

Apple is shifting some production of its Mac Mini desktop computer from Asia to a facility in Houston, with manufacturing slated to start later this year. This decision is part of a recent U.S. investment following a $600 billion commitment made last August, despite ongoing uncertainty about U.S. tariffs. The Houston facility is also being expanded to include a new training center, which is projected to create thousands of jobs, though Apple has a history of inconsistent follow-through on investment promises.

Panasonic Hands Off TV Production to Skyworth

Panasonic is drastically reducing its commitment to its TV business by handing over the global manufacturing, marketing, and selling of Panasonic-branded TVs, including in the US and Europe, to the Chinese company Skyworth. Skyworth, a top TV brand, will manage sales and logistics, while Panasonic will offer expertise, quality assurance, and jointly develop high-end OLED models. This move is the culmination of Panasonic’s decade-long scaling back of its TV operations and mirrors a larger trend of Japanese companies leaving the TV market as South Korean and Chinese manufacturers gain dominance.

Meta Strikes GPU Deal With AMD

Meta has entered a major deal with AMD to purchase up to six gigawatts of Instinct GPUs. The agreement includes an equity component, potentially granting Meta up to a 10 percent stake in AMD (up to 160 million shares) upon meeting GPU shipment milestones, starting in the second half of 2026. This deal also extends their existing EPYC CPU collaboration and reflects a broader industry effort by major AI companies to reduce reliance on NVIDIA for chip supply, though analysts warn that such closely linked deals carry risks if AI market demand slows.

Meta Plans Stablecoin Comeback

Meta is planning a renewed effort to enter the stablecoin market by the end of the year. Instead of launching its own currency, as it did with the failed Libra/Diem project, Meta will integrate a dollar-pegged stablecoin through a third-party firm. This move is intended to reduce traditional banking fees and advance Meta’s position in “social commerce” and cross-border payments, allowing the company to proceed with less direct regulatory scrutiny.

Discord Drops Persona Age Verification in UK

Discord has dropped its limited UK age verification test with provider Persona due to user privacy concerns and backlash, specifically regarding face scans and exposed code referencing facial recognition. Discord removed Persona mentions and now uses k-ID, which partners with Veratad for facial age estimation and ID scanning. Discord assures users that face scan data stays on the device and IDs are immediately deleted after confirmation. Users whose age isn’t determined with “high confidence” will default to a “teen” experience unless they complete a verification process involving a face scan or photo ID.

DoD Eyes Grok for Classified Systems

The US Department of Defense (DoD) is reportedly planning to adopt Grok AI for its classified systems after a dispute with Anthropic, which refused the Pentagon’s request to use its Claude model for “all lawful purposes,” including mass surveillance and autonomous weapons. Although officials consider Grok less advanced than Claude, xAI agreed to the DoD’s terms. This move follows previous controversy over Grok’s output of offensive rhetoric. The DoD is also negotiating deals with OpenAI and Gemini, which it considers comparable to Anthropic’s technology.

Anthropic Accuses Chinese AI Labs of Claude Distillation

Anthropic has accused three Chinese AI firms, DeepSeek, Moonshot, and MiniMax, of using approximately 24,000 fraudulent accounts and over 16 million exchanges in “industrial-scale campaigns” to conduct “distillation attacks” on its Claude chatbot. Anthropic claims the companies illicitly extracted Claude’s capabilities to train their own AI models, which involves less powerful models learning from advanced ones, and was detected through IP correlation and other infrastructure indicators. Anthropic plans to upgrade its system to prevent these attacks, while the company itself is simultaneously facing a lawsuit from music publishers over the alleged use of copyrighted songs to train Claude.

DJI Challenges FCC Import Ban

Chinese drone manufacturer DJI is challenging the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) decision to ban the import of all its new drone models and critical components, as well as those from other foreign drone companies like Autel, by filing a lawsuit in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit. DJI claims the December ruling “carelessly restricts” its business and denies U.S. customers access to its latest technology, as it prevents companies from getting FCC approval for new models and components, though existing versions can still be sold.

On Monday, OpenAI announced a multi-year partnership with four consulting firms called “Frontier Alliances”, with Accenture, Boston Consulting Group, Capgemini, and McKinsey & Co. Earlier in February OpenAI announced Frontier as its enterprise platform, an intelligence layer for organizations to unite internal data and systems and for better management, deployment, and building of AI agents. Capgemini’s chief strategy and development officer Fernando Alvarez says OpenAI’s Frontier Alliances will help roll out its technology at scale. OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar told CNBC earlier this year that enterprise accounts for ~40% of OpenAI’s business, expecting to rise to 50% by the end of 2026.

Turkey’s data protection watchdog opened a review over how six major social media platforms process children’s personal data. The Personal Data Protection Board will review TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, X and Discord’s data processing steps and any safeguards in place to protect children. The Justice and Development Party (AKP) will submit a draft “family package” bill introducing rules for social media accounts like identity verification and age restrictions. Children under 15 will be banned from opening accounts and restrictions would be introduced for all users under 18. The draft reportedly also contains a provision authorizing rapid takedowns of ‘illegal content’ without a court order.

On Saturday, Germany passed a motion to ban social media for users under 14 and implement digital verification checks for teenagers. Christian Democratic Union’s Chancellor Friedrich Merz also called for fines against platforms failing to enforce limits and a European Union harmonization of age standards.

The UK’s regulatory and competition authority, the Office of Communications (Ofcom), fined porn company 8579 LLC £1.35m over the failure to introduce and enforce proper age verification measures on its websites under the Online Safety Act (OSA), with an additional fine of £50,000 for not responding to Ofcom’s probe. Ofcom also ordered 8579 LLC to provide a complete list of sites it operates, imposing an ongoing daily fine of £250 if it does not comply, capping after 60 days. The Online Safety Act, which came into effect in July 2025, requires pornography providers to check the age of all of visitors from within the UK.

Firefox will end support for Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 at the end of February. Critical security updates are currently available through Extended Support Release (ESR), though regular support stopped back in January 2023. Mozilla notes that most browsers, like Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome, had already discontinued support for those older operating systems, and states Windows 10 support will continue “for the foreseeable future”. In the announcement Mozilla also states “If your current hardware can’t handle Windows 10 or higher for some reason, you can switch to a Linux-based operating system. The vast majority of Linux distributions come with Firefox as the default browser.”
