טכנולוגיה חדשות: 8 אוקטובר 2025 - 11 אוקטובר 2025

November 21, 2025, 7:50 PM EST. On its 40th anniversary, Windows is being pitched as an agentic OS, with AI baked into core experiences and a Copilot-driven future. Microsoft unveiled this vision at Ignite, promising AI controls that could operate the PC for you while sprinkling Copilot features across the OS. But the reaction has been swift and mixed: social posts by Windows chief Pavan Davuluri drew hundreds of remarks, with users calling to return to a simpler, bloat-free UI and better fundamentals. Critics warn the focus on AI risks alienating a billion users and ignores the basics users value. Even as Microsoft touts ambition and developer engagement, many observers worry the path resembles past missteps rather than a clear, usable upgrade.

November 21, 2025, 7:48 PM EST. Tesla stock jumped about 4% as investors piled into AI plays following Nvidia's strong results, with Nvidia up ~2% and lifting market risk appetite. The rally reflects AI momentum driving sentiment toward Tesla's AI-driven vehicle software, self-driving tech and in-house training platform, which sit at the core of its long-term plan. Analysts say earnings from chipmakers may attract more attention to automakers like Tesla, though the move is driven by sentiment rather than new business updates. Traders will scrutinize upcoming delivery figures and any disclosures on autonomous-development timelines to gauge the rally's staying power. While the broader market rallies with AI exposure, experts caution that execution on software rollouts and vehicle deliveries remains pivotal.

November 21, 2025, 7:46 PM EST. Google announced that Android's Quick Share now interoperates with AirDrop, letting photos, videos, and files be shared directly between Android and Apple devices across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. In Quick Share, Apple devices appear as sharing targets and transfers require user approval, enabling two-way sharing between platforms. The connection is peer-to-peer and native to both ecosystems-no server relay and no cross-platform data logging. Google highlights an end-to-end security approach, a Rust-based secure channel, and built-in protections like Google Play Protect on Android alongside iOS safeguards. Google did not partner with Apple but would welcome collaboration, including a potential Contacts Only mode. The goal: seamless, cross-platform sharing without worrying about device type or OS.

November 21, 2025, 7:40 PM EST. Google has announced that Pixel 10 phones can now send and receive files with Apple devices over an AirDrop-style protocol. The feature works with iPhone, iPad, and macOS, and currently applies only to the Pixel 10 series. To transfer, the Apple device must be discoverable (or in automatic receive mode) for a limited time, after which the Pixel 10 user can initiate the Quick Share transfer and the Apple user approves it. Transfers are described as direct, peer-to-peer, with no server routing and no extra logging. Google notes there was no workaround involved, and hints at future cooperation to enable Contacts Only mode. For now, this is limited to Google's own phones, but represents a major step toward cross-platform sharing between Android and Apple devices.

November 21, 2025, 7:38 PM EST. Black Friday deal makes the Meta Quest 3S a compelling entry point into VR. The 128 GB model is $250 on Amazon, $50 off, and includes a copy of Gorilla Tag plus a 3-month Quest game subscription. Powered by the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2, it's wireless with full-color passthrough and no PC tether. It can unlock Quest 3-exclusive titles for Quest 2 owners, with around two hours of battery life. A strong budget pick vs Steam Frame, but note only the 128 GB SKU is on sale and some titles may be larger (Batman: Arkham Shadow ~19 GB). For VR-curious shoppers, this is a smart starter headset.
