海外TECH	Engadget	The biggest winners in tech in 2023	https://www.engadget.com/the-biggest-winners-in-tech-in-2023-143012912.html?src=rss	Throughout it felt like the drama never let up From Elon Musk s nonstop shenanigans to the constant launches in the generative AI race the last twelve months was packed with news Thankfully it wasn t all bad and this year saw more winners than before There were clear frontrunners like Threads and AI but we also saw surprises like Apple s Vision Pro headset and the iPhone maker finally embracing several open standards Of all the things that happened this year here s the Engadget team s list of tech s biggest winners in ThreadsIf you had told me a year ago that Mark Zuckerberg would use the Elon Musk induced chaos at Twitter to his and Meta s advantage I wouldn t have been surprised If however you had told me that Meta s slapdash effort to build a standalone Twitter clone based on Instagram would emerge as the most viable and popular alternative I probably would have laughed But if taught us anything it s that Elon Musk was more adept at taking Twitter X to lower lows than we could have possibly imagined And while we ll likely never see an actual cage match between Zuck and Musk it s impossible to ignore just how much Threads has benefitted from Musk s self inflicted wounds After an initial surge and drop off in interest Threads is back at million monthly users It was the fourth most downloaded app of the year according to Apple despite a mid year launch and months without any EU availability The app is also beginning its long awaited experiment with federation which will eventually make its content interoperable with Mastodon Threads has of course benefitted from Meta s vast engineering resources as well as the company s willingness to engage in good old fashioned growth hacking And there are still valid concerns about Meta s content moderation practices and the implications for allowing the Facebook owner to control yet another major social platform But the fact that Threads was able to grow so quickly despite all that shows just how desperate people were for an alternative Threads may not have been the most advanced or most interesting of the wave of alternatives but it s been able to use its ties to Meta and Instagram to attract the most interest And right now it has something X doesn t a whole lot of momentum ーKarissa Bell Senior reporterGenerative AIWe capped off with the rising popularity of ChatGPT OpenAI s remarkably powerful generative AI chatbot While the idea of having a conversation with a chatbot wasn t exactly new ChatGPT leveraged a large language model LLM to achieve natural almost human like responses as well as the ability to craft readable text or pull up information on demand It was a sign that AI was going to be an important topic in ーsomething Microsoft proved when it launched Bing s AI Chat in February which was powered by OpenAI s next generation GPT model And so the AI wars began ScreenshotGoogle rushed to announce its Bard chatbot to pre empt Microsoft s Bing Chat launch but it demonstrated the limitations of generative AI when it confidently answered a question about the James Webb telescope incorrectly That led to an immediate percent drop in Google s stock and it made the company seem like it was just chasing Microsoft s and OpenAI s accomplishments with Bing Chat and ChatGPT Bard was originally powered by Google s LaMDA LLM which had been in development since Bing Chat was just the start for Microsoft It also launched AI integration in Microsoft Edge through a Copilot sidebar something that also ended up arriving in Microsoft apps Windows and Windows Google meanwhile announced Bard integration for its Assistant and implemented a slew of AI powered features into Gmail Docs Sheets Meet Chat Slides as well as the new Pixel and Pixel Pro Heading into we can look forward to Google s GPT competitor Gemini and Microsoft also announced that its Copilots are getting upgraded with GPT Outside of Microsoft and Google AI ended up being the buzzword adopted by much of the tech world throughout How quickly we forgot about Web crypto and the metaverse But while the relentless hype cycle was inevitable we also saw text to image generation tools like OpenAI s Dall E become even more powerful evolving beyond the creepy multi fingered imagery it was famous for AI is starting to influence the the world outside of tech as well It was one of the most prominent concerns for WGA members during their day long strike and many people were fooled by the famous image of the Pope wearing a puffy Balenciaga coat which was generated by Midjourney There s still plenty we don t know about how AI will influence our lives though researchers like Timnit Gebru founder of the Distributed AI Research Institute and Margaret Mitchell are continually raising the alarm about ethical AI concerns Much of the AI world seems to be following Facebook s former philosophy of move fast and break things ーexpect to see more drama around artificial intelligence like OpenAI CEO Sam Altman s surprise firing and re hiring It normally takes a few years for a founder to get ousted from their company like Steve Jobs and Twitter s Jack Dorsey Devindra Hardawar Senior reporterPhoto by Cherlynn Low EngadgetApple meets RCS USB C and Qi In it almost felt like hell froze over Apple notorious for its walled garden not only introduced new phones with USB C charging ports this year but also announced it would support the RCS messaging standard This happened after months of public badgering from Google and its execs and multiple reports calling out the green bubble stigma Apple appeared to relent seemingly having come to terms with previous misgivings Though Apple s declaration is a step in the right direction and brings better security and multimedia support for those on iPhones texting people on Androids the bubble color divide is far from dissolved When the company does adopt the messaging standard it may not change the way texts are presented iMessage still has many features that RCS lacks particularly those introduced in iOS this year like Voice Memo transcripts and Check Ins Of course it s not like Apple is welcoming all these interoperable standards with open arms Its adoption of USB C is clearly a reaction to the EU s mandate that all new devices sold next year charge with the same standard And even after announcing RCS support the company still worked hard to plug the workarounds that enabled Android platforms like Beeper and Sunbird to bring some semblance of iMessage support to non iOS devices But when you consider all the changes made this year plus the fact that iPhone s are among the first devices that work with the new Qi wireless charging protocol it s hard to ignore the momentum It doesn t feel quite right to label Apple a winner because of all this but with the number of people that are now better served and supported by the company s devices it won t be surprising to see a fair amount of goodwill flow its way ーCherlynn Low Deputy editorPhoto by Sam Rutherford EngadgetFoldable phonesSince Samsung has had a virtual monopoly on big fancy foldable phones But in we got not one but two new challengers in the Pixel Fold and OnePlus Open And while neither can claim total superiority they ve brought some interesting innovations to the category With its super thin design and wider front display the Pixel Fold makes it easy to use all of your apps without ever needing to open the device So when do unfold it you appreciate its inch flexible screen even more And unlike its rivals Google didn t cut corners with its cameras as the Pixel Fold offers better image quality than pretty much any other handset foldable or otherwise aside from its recent sibling the Pixel Pro Meanwhile with the Open OnePlus created a clever card based multitasking system that makes it super easy to flip between apps The Open is also thinner and lighter than Samsung s Galaxy Z Fold And while it s still pretty expensive thanks to a nifty deal that brings its price down to with the trade in of any phone OnePlus first foldable is helping lower the barrier to entry for devices even further So in a year when the pace of Samsung s innovation felt like it was starting to stagnate two new rivals brought increased competition to the category which is a win for anyone who s ever thought about buying a big foldable phone ーSam Rutherford Senior reporterApple Vision ProApple didn t make the first MP player and it certainly didn t make the first smartphone But the iPod and iPhone managed to out innovate existing products and reorient the entire technology world around their existence The Vision Pro is a similar play albeit one that isn t immediately meant for everyone Companies like Oculus now Meta and HTC Vive have been pursuing consumer VR for almost a decade but the Vision Pro takes an even bolder leap forward Imagine having your apps floating above your desk or having a video pinned to a wall of your room or seamlessly reliving your memories captured in D spatial videos And yes it can also deliver immersive virtual experiences when it needs to As is true for many VR solutions it s hard to convey the magnitude of Apple s accomplishment with the Vision Pro in words screenshots or promo trailers If you re not terribly excited about spending on Apple s unproven goggles I can t blame you But after spending some time with the Vision Pro during its launch event I m convinced it s something special Its screens are far sharper than any VR headset I ve seen its onboard cameras deliver a better mixed reality experience and the simple gestures Apple has developed for navigating its interface are wonderfully intuitive While the Vision Pro has its obvious issues ーit s priced for developers and early adopters not average consumers it s still a chunky device that many people won t want to wear ーit fundamentally reshapes the way we ve been thinking of mixed reality It s not just a gadget for VR games nor is it something purely geared towards business purposes like the Hololens and Magic Leap It s something truly new and it could end up paving the way towards our spatial computing future ーDevindra HardawarEngadgetGaming handheldsHandheld gaming PCs combine everything you love about classic portables like the Gameboy Advance or the PSP with big performance and admittedly much larger builds plus the freedom to play practically any title you can think of And in we saw an explosion of compelling devices with a range of designs from big chunky units with detachable controllers like Lenovo s Legion Go to a major revamp for the Steam Deck featuring a new OLED display Meanwhile systems like the ASUS ROG Ally offer top notch specs in a sleek design And this is before you mention smaller manufacturers like Ayaneo GPD and others that have put their own twist on the category But the best part is that most of these cost half the price of a typical gaming laptop so if all you care about is being able to game from well anywhere has given us a wealth of options ーSam RutherfordNeuralinkElon Musk s Neuralink brain computer interface startup came into against the figurative ropes The FDA had denied its petition to begin human trials of its implantable prosthetic over concerns that prototypes of the device had killed a slew of porcine test subjects rival BCI maker Synchron had already beaten it to market having having successfully installed their device in a human patient that July and the USDA had launched an investigation into animal cruelty claims against the company Musk s promise of beginning human trials within six months made during a November show and tell event appeared increasingly unlikely Heading into Neuralink is in a much better place The USDA conducted a focused inspection of the company s facilities but did not find any compliance breaches beyond a single issue in that Neuralink self reported per a report obtained by Reuters That investigation came in response to a complaint filed by the Physicians Committee of Responsible Medicine an animal welfare advocacy group that alleged Neuralink and research partner UC Davis had caused the needless suffering and death of simian test subjects between and Neuralink may have placated that investigation however the USDA s Office of Inspector General OIG has since launched its own independent investigation at the behest of federal prosecutors into the allegations as such actions might violate the Animal Welfare Act That process remains ongoing In May Neuralink received the best news of its year the FDA had cleared the company to begin early stage human trials after it had satisfactorily address the agency s previous issues The agency s major safety concerns involved the device s lithium battery the potential for the implant s tiny wires to migrate to other areas of the brain and questions over whether and how the device can be removed without damaging brain tissue current and former Neuralink employees told Reuters in March In September nearly a year after Musk s six month promise the Precise Robotically Implanted Brain Computer Interface PRIME if you really squint study opened for subject volunteers The study aims to evaluate the safety of our implant N and surgical robot R and assess the initial functionality of our BCI for enabling people with paralysis to control external devices with their thoughts Whether patients turn out to have the devices implanted won t be revealed until the trials are complete but given Musk s increasingly erratic behavior and irrational diatribes embrace of antisemitism and promotion of far right hate speech ーthe fact that he ran Twitter into the ground in barely a year ーcould make selling people on the finer points of their cranial surgery an impossible task ー Andrew Tarantola Senior reporterThis article
