DOGE has reportedly started rolling out a custom chatbot to automate some government tasks

Posted in: Today's Chili

Employees of the General Services Administration, which manages government real estate and certain IT efforts, have been given a custom chatbot from Elon Musk’s DOGE to help automate tasks, according to a new report from Wired, with an internal memo telling workers it can be used to “draft emails, create talking points, summarize text, write code.” The chatbot, GSAi, gives users a choice of three models — Claude Haiku 3.5 (the default), Claude Sonnet 3.5 v2 and Meta Llama 3.2 — and is ultimately meant to be used to “analyze contract and procurement data,” Wired reports.

The GSA is one of the many agencies that have been affected by the federal government’s mass job cuts, and has so far let go upwards of 1,000 workers, sources told NPR in a report published this week. That includes roughly 90 people from its tech branch, according to Wired. In memos about the new chatbot seen by Wired, workers were told not to input “federal nonpublic information,” personally identifiable information or “controlled unclassified information.” It was reportedly tested among a smaller group last month before rolling out to the roughly 1,500 workers who now have access, with plans to expand down the line.

Lenovo ThinkBook 16p Gen 6 With Four Magic Bay Concept Adds-On For Modular Multitasking

Posted in: Today's Chili

The ThinkBook 16p Gen 6 with the Magic Bay Dual Display Concept attached

Lenovo came to MWC 2025 with the ThinkBook 16p Gen 6, an impressive successor to the ThinkBook 16p Gen 5. Featuring Intel Core Ultra processors (HX-SKUs), a 16-inch 3.2K display with X-Rite color calibration, and a higher system TDP of 180W (up to 200W in Geek Mode), this laptop is built for creators and power users alike. However, what truly sets this model apart is its modularity through the Magic Bay ecosystem—a series of attachable AI-powered accessories that redefine multitasking and productivity.

Performance Combined with Advanced AI Integration

With the ThinkBook 16p Gen 6, Lenovo aims to redefine AI-enhanced computing. Equipped with a discrete Neural Processing Unit (NPU), it offloads AI-related tasks, allowing the NVIDIA GeForce RTX GPU to focus on more complex operations like real-time 3D rendering, modeling, and visualization of intricate designs. Additionally, the Lenovo AI Now personal assistant streamlines workflows by automating routine tasks, offering a seamless experience for professionals dealing with demanding workloads.

The 16-inch display, enhanced with X-Rite color calibration, ensures precise and vibrant visuals, making it ideal for designers and content creators. Thanks to the higher power envelope, users can expect smoother multitasking and reduced rendering times, significantly boosting efficiency.

The Magic Bay Ecosystem For A Modular Computing Experience

Lenovo’s Magic Bay ecosystem introduces a range of concept accessories that attach via the built-in Magic Bay dock, transforming the ThinkBook 16p Gen 6 into a modular laptop. These concepts include the Magic Bay Dual Display, Magic Bay 2nd Display, Magic Bay Tiko Pro, and Magic Bay Tiko—each designed to enhance productivity and enable a customizable user experience.  Lenovo Magic Bay Concept ecosystem is one of Ubergizmo’s Best of MWC 2025 Awards.

Magic Bay Dual Display Concept Delivers Better Productivity

The Magic Bay Dual Display Concept is an attachable dual 13.3-inch screen that connects to the ThinkBook 16p via the dock. It turns the laptop into a triple-screen workstation, providing an extended canvas for working on data visualization, content editing, or collaborative projects. This add-on allows users to manage multiple applications side-by-side without needing an external monitor, making it an excellent tool for traveling multitaskers like me. I cannot wait to get one!

Magic Bay 2nd Display Concept: An AI Dashboard on the Go

The Magic Bay 2nd Display Concept offers an 8-inch attachable screen that serves as a dedicated AI dashboard. This compact display provides quick access to essential tools, messaging apps, and AI-generated insights, ensuring that key information is always within reach.

The AI dashboard can be customized to display widgets like to-do lists, notifications, and performance metrics, allowing users to stay organized and informed. Its small footprint makes it ideal for mobile professionals who need to maximize productivity without being tethered to a desk.

Magic Bay Tiko Pro Concept: A Smart Assistant

Lenovo’s Magic Bay Tiko Pro is another standout concept. It features a slim, horizontally oriented display that attaches magnetically to the top of the ThinkBook 16p’s screen. Designed as an always-on assistant interface, Tiko Pro integrates with Lenovo AI Now, offering real-time widget displays to streamline information management.

Tiko Pro provides direct visual access to customizable functionalities, including to-do lists, timers, and dashboards. Additionally, it turns into a teleprompter during presentations, displaying notes directly in the user’s line of sight above the main display where the presentation is shown. Tiko Pro enables widgets and tool personalization to tailor the workspace for specific tasks and workflows.

Tiko Pro Concept, an add-on mini display for direct access to customizable functions offers four modes, daily, Focus, Meeting or Gaming.

Magic Bay Tiko Concept: AI with a Personality

The Magic Bay Tiko Concept takes a more playful approach to AI integration. Tiko is designed as an AI emotional interaction companion, featuring a compact, circular screen that attaches to the top of the laptop display. This device not only displays real-time, emoji-style status updates but also responds to voice commands and gestures—such as a thumbs-up or a heart—adding a layer of personalized interaction.

Users can mute the Tiko companion’s audio with a simple “shush” gesture. Additionally, it can display emojis, generate information, and even play games, making it a versatile companion for users looking for productivity while having fun. An API connector further expands Tiko’s capabilities, allowing developers and users to create custom features and integrations.

During our meeting at MWC, Lenovo’s spokesperson emphasized Tiko’s potential for customization and user interaction, underscoring its role as a personalized assistant that adapts to individual preferences.

The Netflix film adaptation of Keanu Reeves’ BRZRKR now has its director

Posted in: Today's Chili

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Netflix has tapped Fast & Furious director Justin Lin to direct its upcoming movie adaptation of BRZRKR, the popular comic by Keanu Reeves and Matt Kindt about an immortal warrior. Netflix first announced plans to create both a live-action movie and an anime based on BRZRKR back in 2021, with Reeves starring in the former and returning to voice his character in the animated show. But, we’ve heard little about the projects since. In the meantime, Reeves and author China Miéville dove back into the BRZRKR lore with The Book of Elsewhere, which was released last year.

There are still no details on when the Netflix adaptations will air, but we can safely expect both to bring violence and plenty of action. BRZRKR follows a half-mortal, half-god man known as “B” who has fought his way through 80,000 years of life. By the time he accepts a job killing for the US government, he’s very much over his immortality and looking for a way out. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Terminator Zero showrunner Mattson Tomlin is writing the script for the movie and the anime.
