Internet can't believe Kash Patel is 5'9'': 'His cute little legs are dangling'
FBI director Kash Patel sat with Fox News' Bret Baier in a one-on-one interview where the Indian-origin top cop laid down the future works of the agency and addressed the criticisms his agency is facing on some specific issues like delaying the release of Epstein's Files, etc. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now But what intrigued social media was the high chair on which Kash Patel was made to sit from where his legs were dangling and he looked like a tiny figure. Bret was also sitting on a similar chair but he is definitely taller than Patel, and the Internet was in disbelief that Kash Patel is 5 feet 9 inches tall, as publicly recorded, because he looked nothing like that. 'Serious issues discussed during this segment so I'm sorry, there's nothing funny about FBI Director Kash Patel sitting atop a high chair like a big boy, kicking his feet lackadaisical," Washington Post tech reporter Drew Harwell wrote on BlueSky. "Look at this DEI 👀 Republicans said they only wanted cops that could carry a grown man over their shoulder. Our top cop, Kash Patel, weighs like 80 lbs," one wrote on X. "Kash Patel seriously took one look at this chair and said "Let's do this"?? 😂 His cute little legs are dangling! Respect though, he needs crazy upper body strength to boost himself way up there," another wrote on X. Grok replied to curious X users that Kash Patel's height is reported as 5'9'' based on information available on social media and Bret Baier's height is 5 feet 11 inches. "Fox News .... Why did you put Kash Patel in such a high chair? He looks tiny!" one wrote while another conjectured that this can;t be unintentional. Reddit erupted over theories on why Kash Patel was made to sit in that high chair. Some thought it was to make him look taller while others pointed out that it was because of the height of the chair that he looked so tiny.

Apple to introduce advanced Siri features in 2026 with iOS 19.4: Report
With iOS 19, Apple reportedly aims to rebuild Siri's underlying system from the ground up, a move expected to finally unlock the three major capabilities promised earlier New Delhi Apple Intelligence-powered advanced Siri abilities are now expected to roll out in spring next year, likely alongside the iOS 19.4 update. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is currently building a new architecture for its digital assistant, which could be ready by spring 2026. This means the delayed features—such as personalised responses, on-screen awareness, and cross-app functionality—may finally arrive on compatible devices next year. Gurman noted that Apple could announce the new Siri architecture as early as the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in June 2025 — 'with a launch by spring 2026 as part of iOS 19.4.' New Siri architecture: Details In his report, Gurman explained that the current version of Siri operates with 'two brains'—one handling legacy Siri commands like setting timers or making calls, and another managing more advanced queries. While these systems currently work together for certain tasks, like changing a request mid-command, the integration is not seamless. Apple had initially planned to merge these systems for iOS 18.4 to enable more powerful Siri features but ran into major challenges. Limited development time led to a "rash of bugs," with Apple's Senior Vice President of Software Engineering, Craig Federighi, reportedly raising concerns that the features weren't performing reliably. With iOS 19, Apple aims to rebuild Siri's underlying system from the ground up, a move expected to finally unlock the three major abilities promised earlier. Internally, Apple has also restructured leadership in its AI division, hoping to speed up development and improve stability. Notably, Siri oversight has reportedly been handed to Vision Pro chief Mike Rockwell, who is reorganising teams focusing on speech, understanding, performance, and user experience. Advanced Siri features Several new Siri abilities announced at WWDC 2024 are now expected to debut during the iOS 19 cycle: On-screen awareness: Siri will recognise what's currently displayed on the screen and act accordingly. For example, if a friend sends you their new address in Messages, you can ask Siri to "Add this address to their contact," and it will complete the task without needing more details. In-app actions: Powered by the App Intents framework, Siri will be able to perform complex, multi-step tasks across both Apple and third-party apps—without having to open them. For instance, you could ask Siri to find a photo, edit it, and save it to a specific folder in the Files app. Personalisation: Thanks to an on-device semantic index enabled by Apple Intelligence, Siri will gain deep contextual awareness. It will be able to pull information from apps like Messages, Mail, Calendar, Photos, and Files to assist with tasks—such as retrieving your driver's licence number from a stored image to autofill a form.
