You're tuned in to Tech Beat, and here's what's moving today.
Apple and its rivals are now pushing two terabytes of onboard storage for smartphones, and while that sounds like overkill, the math starts to make sense faster than you'd expect. A single hour of four-K video can eat through six gigabytes, and mobile games are routinely crossing the thirty gigabyte mark. For heavy creators, the case is real.
Shifting to wearables, AI glasses are generating genuine excitement, but the trade-offs are harder to ignore the closer you look. Privacy concerns top the list — these devices can record and process the world around you passively, and bystanders rarely know it's happening. Battery life and social awkwardness round out a list of friction points that no amount of clever marketing has solved yet.
And in the world of developer tools, a project called Recto surfaced on Hacker News this week, pitching itself as a visual editing layer on top of whatever coding agents produce. The idea is simple but pointed — AI can generate code quickly, but humans still need an intuitive way to shape and correct the output without diving back into raw text.
That's your update for now. Keep surfing. Tech Beat out.
