Amazon Prime Video Starts Showing Ads Unless Users Pay Extra Fee

In January 2024, Amazon Prime Video started showing advertisements to users, requiring an extra monthly fee of about $3 to watch ad-free.

Qualcomm announced new mobile chipsets optimized for AI processing in smartphones. The Snapdragon processors offer improved battery life and faster on-device AI capabilities.

Smartphone manufacturers are integrating these processors into their flagship devices for 2025. On-device AI processing reduces reliance on cloud services and improves privacy.

The company is strengthening its position in the competitive mobile processor market.
