Nintendo offered a closer look at the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 during its latest Nintendo Direct presentation, showcasing the system's hardware and new features. Afterward, the company detailed some of the console's specs, including its battery life.According to a spec sheet on the official Nintendo website, Switch 2's battery life will last between 2-6.5 hours on a single charge. Nintendo says this range is a "rough estimate" and will vary depending on a number of conditions, including what games you are playing. The company also confirmed that it will take approximately three hours to fully charge a Switch 2 when it's in sleep mode.For reference, Switch 2's battery life is roughly in the same ballpark as the original Switch when it first launched back in March 2017. The launch model's battery lasted between 2.5-6.5 hours on a single charge, while the revised model, released in 2019, improved battery life to 4.5-9 hours. The Switch OLED model similarly lasts between 4.5-9 hours on a single charge.Continue Reading at GameSpot

Those interested in music production or users who just appreciate high-fidelity audio would be familiar with studio monitors and their advantages. Studio monitors are essentially speakers with cleaner and more natural sound output, without a heavy emphasis on any one frequency. This results in more accurate audio when listening to music or listening back to your own recorded tracks. Furthermore, studio monitors are designed to be used in close proximity, unlike speakers that fill whatever space you are in with music.

AI is rapidly transforming how organizations solve complex challenges.The early stages of enterprise AI adoption focused on using large language models to create chatbots. Now, enterprises are using agentic AI to create intelligent systems that reason, act and execute complex tasks with a degree of autonomy.Jacob Liberman, director of product management at NVIDIA, joined the NVIDIA AI Podcast to explain how agentic AI bridges the gap between powerful AI models and practical enterprise applications.Enterprises are deploying AI agents to free human workers from time-consuming and error-prone tasks. This allows people to spend more time on high-value work that requires creativity and strategic thinking.Liberman anticipates it wont be long before teams of AI agents and human workers collaborate to tackle complex tasks requiring reasoning, intuition and judgement. For example, enterprise software developers will work with AI agents to develop more efficient algorithms. And medical researchers will collaborate with AI agents to design and test new drugs.NVIDIA AI Blueprints help enterprises build their own AI agents including many of the use cases listed above.Blueprints are reference architectures implemented in code that show you how to take NVIDIA software and apply it to some productive task in an enterprise to solve a real business problem, Liberman said.The blueprints are entirely open source. A developer or service provider can deploy a blueprint directly, or customize it by integrating their own technology.Liberman highlighted the versatility of the AI Blueprint for customer service, for example, which features digital humans.The digital human can be made into a bedside digital nurse, a sportscaster or a bank teller with just some verticalization, he said.Other popular NVIDIA Blueprints include a video search and summarization agent, an enterprise multimodal PDF chatbot and a generative virtual screening pipeline for drug discovery.Time Stamps:1:14 What is an AI agent?17:25 How software developers are early adopters of agentic AI.19:50 Explanation of test-time compute and reasoning models.23:05 Using AI agents in cybersecurity and risk management applications.You Might Also LikeImbue CEO Kanjun Que on Transforming AI Agents Into Personal CollaboratorsKanjun Qiu, CEO of Imbue, discusses the emerging era of personal AI agents, drawing a parallel to the PC revolution and explaining how modern AI systems are evolving to enhance user capabilities through collaboration.Telenors Kaaren Hilsen on Launching Norways First AI FactoryKaaren Hilsen, chief innovation officer and head of the AI factory at Telenor, highlights Norways first AI factory, which securely processes sensitive data within the country while promoting data sovereignty and environmental sustainability through green computing initiatives, including a renewable energy-powered data center in Oslo.Firsthands Jon Heller Shares How AI Agents Enhance Consumer Journeys in RetailJon Heller of Firsthand explains how the companys AI Brand Agents are boosting retail and digital marketing by personalizing customer experiences and converting marketing interactions into valuable research data.

A big new Donkey Kong 3D platforming adventure is coming to Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo announced Wednesday during its Nintendo Direct showcase dedicated to the new console. Its called Donkey Kong Bananza, and it will send (fresh new look) Donkey Kong to heretofore unexplored, underground territories where hell smash, grab, and throw things at anyone who stands in his way.Donkey Kong Bananza will be released on July 17, about six weeks after the Nintendo Switch 2 launches in June, and itll cost $69.99.While Donkey Kong Bananza looks to be primarily a 3D adventure, a trailer for the Switch 2 game reveals it will apparently have some side-scrolling elements too, in the style of the Donkey Kong Country games. Donkey Kong Bananza will be DKs first fully 3D adventure since Donkey Kong 64; subsequent games have largely focused on classic side-scrolling action.Update: This story has been updated to include the games price.

As suggested by the initial Switch 2 reveal, the big launch game for Nintendos new system will be an all-new Mario Kart. Its called Mario Kart World and will launch alongside the console on June 5, Nintendo revealed during Wednesdays Switch 2 Direct. The game has a $79.99 price tag, although you can get Mario Kart World for less if you pre-order it as part of a Switch 2 bundle priced at $499.99.Mario Kart World is an open-world racing game in the style of Forza Horizon, in which fields of 24 racers compete across a huge map with different regions. It has many features associated with more realistic racing games, including a photo mode, dynamically changing weather conditions, and time-of-day that will affect the racing experience.Players will be able to go off-road and drive virtually everywhere in this world in a free-roam mode, while the drive from one race to another during a traditional Mario Kart four-course Grand Prix will be an integral part of the competition. Knockout Tour races are a new battle royale-style variant that see players racing from one side of the map to the other, getting knocked out at checkpoints as they go.The trailer showed off a wide variety of custom vehicles, including snowmobiles, jet skis, and karts adapted for actual flight not just gliding. On some levels, its possible to perform the Mario Kart equivalent of wall-running and grinding rails. The cast of characters encompassed all the Mario Kart favorites and a few wild cards (like a playable cow), and it seemed as though custom outfits will be a thing in Mario Kart World.Therell be more detailed about Mario Kart World in a dedicated Nintendo Direct on April 17.Nintendos focus on Mario Kart World at the launch of the Switch 2 is easy to explain: Its predecessor, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, has been a smash hit on the original Switch, selling an astonishing 67 million copies. Its the best-selling Switch game by a large margin. In fact, if you add sales of the original Wii U version to bring the total to almost 76 million, Mario Kart 8 is the fifth-best-selling game of all time. Its also, arguably, Nintendos biggest hit ever Wii Sports has shipped more copies, but that was bundled free with the Wii console in many territories. Mario Kart 8 was so successful that Nintendo kept adding to it throughout the Switchs lifespan, unleashing six waves of new courses and characters through the Booster Course pass.So its no surprise that Nintendo should peg Switch 2 marketing to a hugely popular series that both defined and dominated the kart racing genre, and that has been a perennial on every Nintendo system since Super Mario Kart debuted on the SNES in 1992. Mario Kart is one of the biggest games series in the world. Will Mario Kart World continue the trend?Update: This article has been updated to include Mario Kart Worlds price.

There are many ways to copy text that can't be easily selected, but few that are as simple and fast as Text Lens ($6)a new Mac app by prolific developer Sindre Sorhus. Text Lens lets you select any part of your Mac's screen and automatically copy all of the text from that part. This makes it easy to copy text from images, videos, scanned pages, settings menus, and other types of text that are otherwise impossible to grab.Text Lens vs. Apple's Live TextLive Text, which is built into macOS, allows you to capture text from screenshots. While it's good enough to get you started, it works only with Safari, Preview, and the built-in screenshot tool. You can't select text from other apps without taking a screenshot first, which adds an extra step to the process. With tools such as Text Lens, you can instantly go into selection mode to capture and copy text. There's no need to take a screenshot and then extract text.Using Text Lens on your Mac Credit: Pranay Parab Text Lens is simple and fast, but you should take a moment to configure it to make the most of the app. Once you've installed the app, click its menu bar icon and go to Settings. In the General tab, enable the following options:Launch at loginClick menu bar icon to capture [you can right-click it to open the menu]Next, go to the Shortcuts tab and record keyboard shortcuts for this app. You can even use Raycast's Hyper Key to quickly create unique shortcuts. Once this is done, you're ready to use the app. Try either its keyboard shortcut or click the menu bar icon to fire up the selector. Click and drag to cover the area you want to copy text from, and release the mouse when you're done.Text Lens will show a popover to confirm if the text has been copied to your clipboard. (In case it fails to copy, the same popover will tell you that no text was detected.) Once it's successful, you can now paste the text in any app and carry on with your day. This app supports 18 languages including English, French, and Spanish. Text Lens will also allow you to copy text from saved files on your Mac: You can import images, PDFs, or other files, and Text Lens will copy everything on the page. The app can also copy text from images in your clipboard. Credit: Pranay Parab While I was quite impressed with Text Lens' accuracy with smaller bits of text, I imported a few larger batches of text to see how it works. For this, I compared it with the results from TextSniper ($11.99 for unlimited license) and Cleanshot X($29), two other Mac apps that let you copy text from images. I used one of my invoices to see how all three apps handle formatting challenges, and at the end of the quick test, TextSniper did the best job with the file.Text Lens and Cleanshot X were able to capture text from the invoice fairly well, but they both included a few typos and messed up the formatting. Both these apps listed all the items and dates first, and lumped together the prices at the end. Meanwhile, TextSniper listed each item, its date, and the price together. It also had the fewest typos.Still, for basic text copying, Text Lens does a fairly good job and is priced quite well. I hope that it gets better at copying large amounts of text in the future, but for copying a few lines here and there, it will do what you need it to do without much of a fuss.
