Xgimi MoGo 4 Series Gets A Crucial Upgrade For Real Portability
Xgimi has announced two new portable projectors in the MoGo lineup. With the MoGo 4 and MoGo 4 Laser, you no longer need to bring your own battery with Xgimi's new projectors. The MoGo 4 series introduces several firsts for the brand's entry-level lineup, including a built-in battery and support for magnetic color filters that lets you adjust the mood and tone of your projection environment.
The standard MoGo 4 features 1080p resolution and 450 ISO Lumens brightness, with support for up to a 120-inch screen. It includes dual 6W Harman/Kardon speakers, auto keystone correction, and 360-degree rotation. A new ambient speaker mode allows the device to act as a standalone Bluetooth speaker, while the included detachable lanyard and gesture controls add to the portability and ease of use.
The Xgimi MoGo 4 Laser brings a more premium visual experience with triple-laser projection technology. It outputs 550 ISO Lumens of brightness and same resolution but is said to offer improved clarity and color performance over the standard model. It also features a native 1000:1 contrast ratio.
The Laser model includes a full set of four magnetic filters called Sunset, Ripple, Lunar, and Dreamscape, which attach to the lens and create varying lighting effects. The MoGo 4 Laser also has a more refined design that includes a transparent base with an illuminated power light and brushed metal side rails.
Both new Xgimi portable projectors offer gesture control support to switch between filter modes with a wave of the hand. They are powered by Google TV with licensed Netflix support, and include HDMI (ARC), USB, Wi-Fi 5, and Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity.
Xgimi MoGo 4 Laser
The Xgimi MoGo 4 is priced at £509, while the MoGo 4 Laser is available for £679. Bundle options include the MoGo 4 with a PowerBase Stand (an accessory that doubles battery life) for £579, and the MoGo 4 Laser paired with both the PowerBase Stand and Outdoor Screen for £799. Both models are available now on the company's official website and Amazon.

Breakfast With ChatGPT: Three Workers, One Morning, A Different AI Story
I came to Cleveland, Ohio, for the 50th anniversary of the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) convention. I expected the hallways to be buzzing with conversations about AI, and they were, but not in the way I'd hoped. For the first two days, the phrase I heard most from my fellow journalists was 'we must protect ourselves.' In session after session, the consensus was that AI is a danger, a threat, an enemy coming to replace us. Then I had breakfast at Betts, the restaurant in my hotel, and a single conversation with my waiter gave me another perspective on the AI revolution. As he brought me the bill, I asked Kevin Knestrick, 49, if he used AI. Haunted by the fearful rhetoric from the convention, I expected him to either rebuff me or launch into an anti-AI tirade. 'Not really,' he replied cautiously, then paused. 'Actually,' he continued, 'I used it for the first time when we changed the menu. I took a picture and uploaded it to ChatGPT and asked it to copy the text and prepare a message for a colleague. It saved me so much time.' As he relaxed, he called over a younger colleague, Jamie Sargent, 31, and he introduced me a bit later to another younger colleague of his, Dawud Hamzah, 37. 'You should talk to these guys,' he said. 'They use it a lot more.' He was right. It quickly became clear that for Hamzah and Sargent, ChatGPT is a part of their daily lives. They don't see it as a threat. For Hamzah, a bartender at Betts and a youth motivational speaker who founded his own empowerment association, H.Y.P.E. (Helping You Produce Excellence), ChatGPT has effectively replaced Google. 'I use it to build solid, well-structured PowerPoint presentations for my speaking engagements with students,' he told me. But its use extends far beyond his professional life. It's his trip planner, health advisor, and personal coach. 'I just used it for my lady's birthday,' he said. 'I said, 'I want something relaxing that has vegan friendly foods.' It gave me a whole itinerary, a phenomenal itinerary.' When back problems flared up, he turned to the chatbot for help. 'I asked it to give me specific home workouts and mobility exercises to relieve pressure from a degenerating disc in my back. And it did.' Did it work? 'Oh yeah!' he responded. Sargent, a former special education teacher, has been using ChatGPT since it launched in late 2022. He used it to generate baseline lesson plans, saving him hours of work which he could then devote to tailoring the content to each of his students' individual needs. 'I saved about an hour's worth of time writing a lesson plan,' he said. I asked him if it felt like cheating. 'No, because I would have done the same thing it did. It just did it faster than I can.' He dismisses the idea that teachers shouldn't use it. 'I'd say, that's nonsense. We spend so many hours outside of the classroom working on our own stuff. If we can make it faster, the better.' Like Hamzah, Sargent is also an avid travel planner, using ChatGPT to map out complex international vacations. 'My brother and I planned a trip to Italy from Milan to Florence to Naples, and it basically showed us the map of taking a train from here to here, gave us good restaurants to go to, and then it told us how much it was going to cost.' Both men hold a pragmatic view of AI's future. They believe jobs will be lost, but that it's on individuals to adapt. 'If you don't learn, develop, and adjust, you'll fail, because it's not going to stop,' Hamzah insisted. Sargent agreed, adding that the key is to focus on what makes you human. 'I'm part of the experience, whereas AI is not part of that experience. Find a way to differentiate yourself from AI and make yourself valuable.' Kevin, who first introduced me to the group, represents a different demographic's journey into AI. His use was born of pure necessity. 'I was in a time crunch to get this menu to the printer,' he recalled. The AI solved his problem in seconds. That single, surprisingly effective interaction transformed him from a non-user into a curious convert. 'Now I'm much more open to any problem I have. I'm just going to ask it now,' he told me. His regret over missing out on the Bitcoin boom has also made him wonder if AI could be a tool to help 'the little guy' get an edge in investing. 'I guess I'm from the generation where all the Wall Street fat cats make money, while us little people just get crushed,' he said. 'How do we not be the little guy anymore?' Their manager, Curtis Helser, 56, was also introduced to ChatGPT by his wife about a year ago. He uses it to refine important work emails, making them shorter and more professional. He isn't afraid of it, seeing it as a tool that can be used for good or ill, just like a car. And he's not worried about his job. 'You have to be in the building,' he said with a laugh. 'Kissing babies, shaking hands, that kind of stuff.' I was stunned. At the restaurant, AI wasn't a terrifying enemy; it was a useful, if imperfect, assistant. The younger employees had fully embraced it, while the older generation was more cautious but still open, integrating it into their lives at their own pace. They see the current panic as a movie they've seen before, recalling the fears that accompanied the rise of the personal computer. The contrast with my colleagues at the journalism convention was stark. Perhaps those of us whose jobs are built on creating and controlling information see AI as an existential threat, while those in the service of people see it as just another tool to get the job done. The real AI revolution, I realized, wasn't happening in the headlines or the panicked convention halls. It was happening quietly, in conversations like this, one practical problem at a time.

Robot dealership opens in China selling over 40 different brands of humanoid bot
A robot dealership which sells over 40 different brands of humanoid bot has opened in China. Robot Mall, which is located in Beijing, opened on Friday (8 August) and is the first of its kind in the country. Shoppers can get their hands on over 100 types of robots, including a coffee machine with arms, a robotic pet dog and a humanoid that plays the guitar. The outlet not only sells robots but also offers services such as maintenance and insurance. 'If robots are to enter thousands of households, relying solely on robotics companies is not enough," Wang Yifan, a store director, told Reuters.

GVNR: Unlocking Permissionless, Peer-to-Peer Asset Control Across All Chains
Singapore, Aug. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cross-chain infrastructure has long been burdened by bridge-related vulnerabilities, centralization risks, and fragmented liquidity. GVNR introduces a new paradigm — permissionless, peer-to-peer control of digital assets across all connected chains. Built with modularity and security at its core, GVNR is not a blockchain but a general message-passing network that allows smart contracts on one chain to control assets on another, including non-smart contract chains like Bitcoin and XRP. The $GVNR token is the backbone of this ecosystem. With a maximum supply of 20 million and an aggressive deflationary model, GVNR is designed to be a scarce, high-utility token for governance, fees, and node operations. Token Overview What are the utilities of $GVNR? The GVNR token ($GVNR) serves several critical roles within the network: Payment for Network Access Blockchain foundations must acquire $GVNR to mint time-bound NFTs that grant access to the GVNR network. These NFTs are priced in USD and paid using $GVNR. Transaction Fee Routing While users pay fees in native gas tokens on their chain, those fees are routed back through the GVNR system, swapped into USDC, used to buy $GVNR, and then partially burned — funneling value back into the token. Deflation Through the Furnace Mechanism Inspired by Ethereum's EIP-1559, GVNR's 'Furnace' automatically burns a progressively higher percentage of protocol fees — starting at 25% in year one and increasing to over 90% in later years. Staking and Node Participation GVNR relayer nodes must stake $GVNR to operate. Honest node behavior is rewarded with protocol fees, while malicious behavior can result in slashing. Governance Rights $GVNR holders govern the GVNR DAO LLC, a non-profit registered in the Marshall Islands. Token holders vote on network upgrades, fee allocation, and DAO resource management. Ecosystem Overview GVNR's architecture is built to unify the blockchain world, not replace it. Key elements include: Universal Control Framework Using Lit Protocol's decentralized MPC and POKT Network's decentralized RPC, GVNR enables any contract on a connected chain to control assets or contracts on another — without relying on centralized bridges. GVNR Nodes These nodes operate like block explorers but with relayer capabilities. They track state changes and propagate messages across chains in a decentralized, trustless manner. MPC + RPC Security Layer All MPC operations are secured within AMD's SEV-SNP confidential hardware, with node redundancy and slashing mechanisms in place. RPC calls are routed through Grove and POKT infrastructure to ensure uptime, privacy, and decentralization. JustPay MVP A multichain payment layer that allows NFT and Web3 platforms to accept tokens from any chain, for any transaction — eliminating the need for bridging or asset swaps. Bitcoin Collateralized Stablecoins Through GVNR's framework, Bitcoin can be directly locked or moved to support decentralized stablecoins across other connected chains — bringing dormant BTC liquidity into DeFi.
