Big Tech ramps up living room rivalry as Instagram launches Reels app for TVs  The battle for the future of television is intensifying, and Meta is making its move. The company announced the launch of an Instagram Reels app for connected TVs, starting with Amazon Fire TV devices. The app aims to bring Reels directly to the living room, allowing users to watch short-form videos on a larger screen alongside friends and family. Tessa Lyons, Instagram’s VP of product, explained that research showed people were already mirroring their phones to TVs to view Reels, signaling a demand for a dedicated TV experience. The new app is designed to make that experience seamless, with features like Blend, which lets users combine their algorithms with those of friends or family for co-viewing, and support for channels and categories for easier content discovery. The move represents a significant shift in the entertainment and digital advertising landscape. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg reported that Re...

THAILAND HAS LAUNCHED ITS FIRST AI-POWERED POLICE ROBOT, NAMED AI POLICE CYBORG 1.0 OR POLICE COLONEL NAKHONPATHOM PLOD PHAI, DURING THE SONGKRAN FESTIVAL IN NAKHON PATHOM PROVINCE. (PHOTOS).

Thailand has launched its first AI-powered police robot, named AI Police Cyborg 1.0 or Police Colonel Nakhonpathom Plod Phai, during the Songkran festival in Nakhon Pathom province. 

The robot is designed to boost public safety during large gatherings by using artificial intelligence and facial recognition to monitor crowds and detect security threats.


The robot, developed with help from local police and city authorities, is not mobile but is equipped with three wide-angle cameras that provide 360-degree surveillance. These cameras gather video from CCTV and drones. Its AI system analyzes the footage in real-time to detect aggressive behavior, unauthorized entry, or hidden weapons. It can also tell the difference between actual threats and harmless objects like water guns used during the Songkran celebration.


Facial recognition technology allows the robot to scan faces and match them with police databases. If it finds a match, it sends an alert to officers. All data is sent live to a command center. This move is part of Thailand’s broader push for digital security tools, including earlier efforts in 2025 to use biometrics to track undocumented workers.


While the robot has drawn praise for improving event safety and showing Thailand’s progress in smart policing, some critics are worried. Human rights groups have raised concerns about privacy and the lack of strong laws to prevent misuse of AI and biometric data. The robot’s actual impact on safety is still unclear, and many are waiting to see if it can deliver real results beyond its initial showcase.
