Electronic Arts has spent the past year pushing its nearly 15,000 employees to use AI for everything from code generation to scripting difficult conversations about pay. Employees in some areas must complete multiple AI training courses and use tools like the company’s in-house chatbot ReefGPT daily.

The tools produce flawed code and hallucinations that employees then spend time correcting. Staff say the AI creates more work rather than less, according to Business Insider. They fix mistakes while simultaneously training the programs on their own work. Creative employees fear the technology will eventually eliminate demand for character artists and level designers. One recently laid-off senior quality-assurance designer says AI performed a key part of his job — reviewing and summarizing feedback from hundreds of play testers. He suspects this contributed to his termination when about 100 colleagues were let go this past spring from the company’s Respawn Entertainment studio.

Businesses are increasingly being deceived by employees using artificial intelligence for an age-old scam: faking expense receipts.

The launch of new image-generation models by top AI groups such as OpenAI and Google in recent months has sparked an influx of AI-generated receipts submitted internally within companies, according to leading expense software platforms.

Software provider AppZen said fake AI receipts accounted for about 14 percent of fraudulent documents submitted in September, compared with none last year. Fintech group Ramp said its new software flagged more than $1 million in fraudulent invoices within 90 days.

The Eufy SoloCam S340 is designed for individuals who want complete control over their home’s security without a monthly subscription commitment. Now $223.99 at Walmart, down from $349.99, which is about $55 cheaper than Amazon’s current price of $279.98 (and an all-time low, according to price trackers), this outdoor home security camera delivers 3K resolution, 360-degree coverage, and solar-powered operation. Its two-lens setup captures both wide-angle and zoomed-in footage with surprising clarity. You can easily mount it anywhere—the solar panel connects via a 10-foot USB-C cable or sits neatly on top—so setup is as simple as picking a spot. As our reviewer put it in her review, “choosing where to put the SoloCam S340 will be the hardest part of installing it.”

Design-wise, the camera looks as sturdy as it feels. The IP67-rated weatherproof housing makes it safe for all seasons, and the motorized base allows 360-degree horizontal panning and 70-degree vertical tilt. That flexibility gives you full yard or driveway coverage, and you can control the view remotely through the Eufy Security app, complete with a virtual joystick and preset “stations” for quick repositioning. The dual-lens setup means you can see both the big picture and fine details you’d normally miss, like the license plate of a passing car or a squirrel raiding your plants. Color night vision and a built-in spotlight make low-light monitoring surprisingly clear, while two-way audio lets you talk through the camera in real time.

Everything saves locally, thanks to onboard storage or the included HomeBase 3 hub, which can hold up to 16TB via USB. That means you get smart motion detection, human and vehicle alerts, and full access to recordings without ever paying a monthly subscription fee. That said, there are a few things to consider. It doesn’t support Apple HomeKit or Matter, and clip loading and live feed access can occasionally lag, especially from a distance. But paired with Alexa or Google Assistant, it’s still easy to manage hands-free, notes this PCMag review.

Apple only released its newest iPad in mid-October but the device is already on sale. Right now you can pick up the 11-inch iPad Pro (M5) for $949, down from $999. The five percent discount is exclusive to the 256GB Wi-Fi model with standard glass. It’s also only available for the Space Black model, though the Silver version is currently listed as $983. 

We gave the new iPad Pro an 85 in our review, in large part because of its impressive M5 chip. It’s especially powerful when you’re using the iPad for GPU-powered tasks. While you’ll see an improvement from the M4 model, it’s a really significant boost if you have an iPad Pro with an M3 chip or older. 

Then there’s the other bits and bobs we liked, such as its extremely thin and lightweight design. It also has Apple Intelligence and an ultra retina XDR display — the screen is really great overall. Plus, the iPad Pro finally supports fast charging, so a 60W power adaptor should get you to 50 percent in just a half hour.
