VR has really started to catch on with developers and content creators this year as VR-ready graphics cards capable of driving this intense graphic content are now to a point where they are much more affordable to the average consumer. This in turn has increased the demand for more VR content, which has led to more of such content being produced, and that has led to Adobe’s addition of better VR tools this year.

Other notable updates/improvements include:

  • Improved real-time playback performance
  • Improved HDR video tools including HDR Metadata, and HDR 10 support
  • Quick render + share functionality to upload content to Behance
  • Better tools for adding and supporting Captions and Subtitles
  • Improved video analytics through Adobe Analytics, allowing creators to monitor streams, rather than just stop/start metrics

Gigabyte's RX 9070 XT GPU.

AMD unveiled its RDNA 4 architecture at CES 2025, but the announcement failed to generate much hype, as many questions were left unanswered. However, thanks to leaked benchmarks, we now have unofficial data that shows the card beating Nvidia's $1,000 RTX 4080 Super, which helps us figure out where it'll rank among some of the best graphics cards.

The benchmarks originated from the Chiphell forum, where admin user nApoleon shared 3DMark scores and GPU-Z details. The post also urged users to delay buying Nvidia's RTX 50-series, claiming the GPU market has "completely changed" based on the results.

Tesla/X CEO Elon Musk seems to believe that training AI models with solely human-made data is becoming impossible. Musk claims that there's a growing lack of real-world data with which to train AI models, including his Grok AI chatbot.

“We’ve now exhausted basically the cumulative sum of human knowledge … in AI training,” Musk said during an X live-stream interview conducted by Stagwell chairman Mark Penn. “That happened basically last year.”

Sick of spam calls? Us too – which is why we got Incogni (and saved 55%!)
Incogni remove personal information from identity thieves

By now, you may be absolutely sick of spam calls. I have the Pixel 8 Pro, which does a pretty nice job of telling me when a spam call might be incoming, but I still waste time and get distracted parsing it every time that happens. To make the situation better, improve my overall data privacy, and save some money on a limited time offer, I might consider signing up for Incogni. Incogni removes personal info from the web and other data brokers to help you regain privacy and reduce annoying calls. And, right now, it is 55% off for the year if you use code DIGITALDEAL upon checkout. That means you can get a 2025 with reduced spam calls (and better overall privacy) for just $81. That's a savings of $99 over the usual $180, which is a pretty good deal if you ask us. Tap the button below to check it out for yourself, or keep reading to see why Incogni is a good choice for spam reduction.

Why you should get Incogni
Incogni is a very well-rounded personal data removal service. That means that it targets the people search sites that anyone can stumble upon via a simple Google or Bing search, as well as more complex data brokerages that contain detailed information about your financial records, medical history, and more. Of course, in addition to this sort of information, these databases also have access to your phone number, which can generate further calls. Incogni uses its large knowledgebase in the sector to target these data brokerages on your behalf, reducing both the amount of knowledge available about you and spam calls along the way. There's no simpler way to reduce your personal data than to have a team do it for you, and Incogni remains one of the best teams to do that job.
