TechCrunch has put together a list of features announced during WWDC that are already available on Apple devices via third-party services. That notably includes the new password app (1Password, LastPass), voice transcription (Otter, AudioPen), the ability to mirror iPhones on a Mac (Bezel), and more.

While Apple has to keep up with its competitors, “Sherlocking” developers at WWDC is a long-running and well-documented tradition.

The new $19.99 M340 Collection is a US exclusive that applies pleasing colors and designs to black or white base models of the popular wireless mouse.

It’s a step above the similarly-designed Pop mouse Logitech debuted in 2021, giving customers some variation between boring monotone and cutesy neons/pastels. I can only hope this kicks off a new wave of quirky, colorful peripheral designs.

Tesla says it “deployed two Optimus bots performing tasks in the factory autonomously.” It’s just a single bullet in a very long post on X that Elon made somebody write to justify voting for his $56 billion payday.

That autonomy could mean anything, of course, but this video from May includes a possible scenario.

I’m at Fortune’s MPW dinner in San Francisco, where OpenAI CTO Mira Murati had a quick, wide-ranging conversation about the state of the company.

What I found most interesting was her comments on the weird board structure: The previous non-profit board structure didn’t have accountability to anyone but themselves, she said. That is the old board that ousted CEO Sam Altman.

Google says there are some changes coming to the Meet call UI to bring it in line with the company’s Material 3 Design System. The first tweaks are very minor updates to in-call controls, but more changes are coming “over the course of the next year.”

Earlier today, we issued a story with the headline “Apple’s new custom emoji come with climate costs.” The story was incorrect, as the emoji are generated locally. We’ve removed the story and regret making the error.

In a live Q&A video, Sonos’ Adib Mehrabi and Cameron MacLeod offered a more specific timeframe for when the Ace’s signature feature will expand to the company’s other soundbars. Sonos is targeting late summer / early fall.

That’s also when Android users will be able to set up TV Audio Swap in the first place.

That’s what I discovered after Google released its new Education Navigator today, a central hub for training, tools, and resources teachers can use in their classrooms. Practice sets with automatic grading? Awesome. Projecting Google Slides to students’ computers to help them stay focused in-class? Even better.

In addition to announcing wider availability of its thumbnail testing tool, YouTube is launching its skip feature it started testing last month. You can learn more details on that and a few other features (including creator QR codes) in this video.

Because bad news, it’s going kaput starting July 8th. After that, you’ll have to use the app. It’s not super surprising given how much effort Google’s put into redesigning the Fitbit app. Or how long it’s been since the web dashboard’s had a meaningful update of its own. Even so, it’s the end of an era.

iFixit has completed its teardown of the Sonos Ace headphones, and it’s always interesting to see how a company’s first product in a new category differs from what’s come before.

The battery seems easy enough to swap for a new one. However, Sonos has warned there’s “a pretty important acoustic seal” that you risk damaging if you get it wrong.

Banana currently has more PC players than Apex Legends, Naraka Bladepoint, Rust and GTA V — and it’s closing in on PUBG. Two weeks ago, it was #47; it rose from #8 to #4 over the weekend.

How the heck? Polygon has a great writeup:

Data centers already use a lot of water and electricity, and adding AI overviews to Google Search only makes those problems bigger.

AI uses “orders of magnitude more energy” than traditional search engines, Hugging Face researcher Sasha Luccioni tells Scientific American.

Correction: Apple’s AI emoji are generated on device, not in data centers.

Mini Maker wasn’t on our transparent gadget radar, but I’m fixing that now! The Turbo Mini X looks incredibly svelte for something with a 65W Intel desktop chip inside, and there’s a companion eGPU with direct PCIe connection that’s allegedly faster than Thunderbolt. It’s not just vapor: Tom’s Hardware saw one.

It lets you put shortcuts to Google Home devices directly on your Home screen and can be resized to one tile, three tiles, six tiles, or a total of 9. Lights can be controlled directly, but devices like cameras and thermostats launch the Home app.

The widget launched in public preview earlier this month and is now rolling out to phones and tablets running Android 12 and higher.

Correction: It is 9 tiles total, not 6 tiles.
