Meta is using a lot of books to train its AI dataset, but it doesn't have permission to use them all. It seems the company is using books, including 15 that Dave wrote, without permission.

It was a sad week for me and many other music fans around the world, as we learned that Ozzy Osbourne died. Ozzy meant a lot to me and my music. I'll miss him.

I'm heading off to Miami this weekend to see the Formula 1 Grand Prix and take a tour of the pit lane. Dave tells us about his Formula 1 experience and his trip to Texas.

If you haven't tried Gemini yet, you should—it's incredible. Apple is being forced to allow developers to get payment for their apps from outside the App Store, which means Apple doesn't get its 30% cut.

The iPhone is as popular as ever among teens, according to a new study. That's important because as they grow up, they are the ones that will be buying new phones.

Apple Maps is now available as a web page on the iPhone, but is it necessary.  Show Notes: Teens and Apple Apple is racing to fly planes of iPhones into the US ahead of Trump’s tariffs How many days of tariff-proof iPhone inventory can Apple build up?
