Resizable widgetsWidgets are resizable, so users can expand them to show more content or shrink them to save space
Multi-LanguageSupports single direction and bi-directional text.
GCMGoogle Cloud Messaging (GCM) is a service that lets developers send short message data to their users on Android devices, without needing a proprietary sync solution.
Wi-Fi DirectA technology that lets apps discover and pair directly, over a high-bandwidth peer-to-peer connection.
Android BeamA popular NFC-based technology that lets users instantly share, just by touching two NFC-enabled phones together.

Android Applications

Android applications are usually developed in the Java language using the Android Software Development Kit.
Once developed, Android applications can be packaged easily and sold out either through a store such as Google Play or the Amazon Appstore.
Android powers hundreds of millions of mobile devices in more than 190 countries around the world. It's the largest installed base of any mobile platform and growing fast. Every day more than 1 million new Android devices are activated worldwide.
This tutorial has been written with an aim to teach you how to develop and package Android application. We will start from environment setup for Android application programming and then drill down to look into various aspects of Android applications.

What is prompt engineering?

  Prompt engineering refers to the process of designing or crafting effective and specific prompts to interact with AI language models. It involves formulating queries, instructions, or input text that can elicit desired responses or outputs from the AI model. The goal of prompt engineering is to guide the model's behavior and generate more accurate and relevant results. Prompt engineering is especially important in the context of AI language models like GPT-3 (Generative Pre-trained Transformer 3) and similar models. These models are incredibly powerful but also very large and complex. Without well-crafted prompts, they may produce responses that are nonsensical, biased, or otherwise undesirable. The process of prompt engineering involves several key steps: Understanding the Model: Familiarize yourself with the capabilities and limitations of the AI language model you are working with. Understand the types of questions or inputs it can handle effectively. Defining the Task: Clea...

Apple is testing a ChatGPT-like AI chatbot

  According to a recent report by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is making significant strides in the development of artificial intelligence tools to rival the likes of OpenAI and Google. Internally referred to as "Apple GPT," the tech giant has created a chatbot using its proprietary framework called "Ajax." This framework, built on Google Cloud with Google JAX, enables the creation of large language models similar to ChatGPT and Google's Bard. While Apple is yet to finalize its strategy for consumer release, it is reportedly planning a major AI-related announcement next year. The chatbot's internal rollout faced delays due to security concerns related to generative AI. However, it has been made available to a growing number of Apple employees with special approval, primarily for product prototyping purposes. Apple's chatbot can summarize text and answer questions based on its training data. Although it shares similarities with commercially availabl...
