LinkedIn Adds AI Tools to Simplify Job Hunting and Improve Learning Experience

Highlights

  • LinkedIn introduces AI-powered job search and application tools
  • AI generates personalized cover letters and résumé feedback
  • New AI learning courses offer personalized guidance for premium subscribers
  • Microsoft’s backing enables LinkedIn to innovate and adapt quickly

LinkedIn is jumping on the AI trend in a big way.

Unveiling new AI-powered tools on Thursday, the professional networking site will make it easier for people to seek and apply for jobs.

Hari Srinivasan, VP of Product at LinkedIn and the author of the announcement, added: “We work closely with each instructor to ensure the AI-powered responses are authentic to their teaching style and aligned to their expertise to ensure a high-quality experience. As we enter a new world of generative AI technologies, we’re beginning to roll out royalties when learners access our instructors’ expertise using AI-powered coaching within a course. If a learner uses this feature to ask a question within the course, the instructor will be paid for it.”

“The responses you’ll receive are trained by experts and represent a blend of insights that are personalized to each learner’s unique needs,” LinkedIn chief product officer TomerCohen says. 

“With our new search capabilities, every search interaction becomes smarter — whether you’re looking to find someone, explore jobs, conduct outreach, or seek knowledge and answers,” Cohen says. “AI is set to revolutionize our search capabilities, enabling you to explore the depth and breadth of any topic directly through LinkedIn search.” Cohen promises that search enhancements will be rolled out “in the coming weeks.”

AI Job Search

One of the major new features lets you search for a job opening just by describing what you want in normal language.

You might simply say, “Find me marketing manager roles in Chicago paying over $80,000.”

Rather than keyword searches, the AI will learn and bring back up relevant job listings.

But that’s not all-the AI for this social media platform doesn’t just stop there.

It even offers AI-generated cover letters and letters of introduction, once you hit upon potential roles.

Also, AI is going to review your résumé and give you personalized feedback so that you put forward your best self to potential employers.

Then, once you find jobs to apply for, AI on LinkedIn will auto-fill a cover letter and an introduction of yourself for that role.

It will also review your resume for you and give you some feedback to really help you be your best.

New AI Learning Courses

There has been a huge 160 percent increase in demand for the AI skills courses at LinkedIn over the past year as workers seek to learn about the emerging tech.

Now, if you are one of its premium subscribers, AI-powered coaches will give personalized advice and guidance as you watch these instructional videos.

The difference will be evident in the next couple of weeks; people will have a more natural, conversational way of searching and just find things more easily and accurately.

By applying the power of artificial intelligence, LinkedIn is changing how people get search results- comprehensive, relevant, and individualized, enhancing the entire experience of its users.

Highlights

  • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra may launch in China as Galaxy W25
  • Rumoured to have exclusive visual touches like decorative hinge engraving
  • Potential consolidation with the slimmer Z Fold 6 Slim variant
  • Expected official unveiling at next month’s Galaxy Unpacked event

Although several varieties of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 are supposedly stewing in Samsung’s kitchens – there is one that gets us more excited than all the others combined: the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra.

Imagined as the flagship ambassador of Samsung’s folding phone franchise, the Ultra Galaxy Fold 6 is sure to go as far as can possibly be pushed with this truly bleeding-edge form factor.

Z Fold 6 Ultra to Land on Chinese Shores

Rumours of availability have been making rounds for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra, first as a device rumoured exclusive to Samsung’s backyard, South Korea.

Now, however, as per new reports by Android Headlines on the Ultra model, this will also reach Chinese shores.

This only adds to the excitement of foldable fans.

Interestingly, the rumoured Galaxy Z Fold 6 Slim, which is said to debut later this latter end of this year, with its slimmer form factor and larger screens plus an enhanced battery, many just be the Chinese variant of the Z Fold 6 Ultra.

If this proves to be true, it could help clarify the confusion surrounding Samsung’s foldable lineup and consolidate the number of models in development.

Galaxy W25 To Be the New Name

The Z Fold 6 Ultra is tipped to be sold in the Chinese market under the name “Samsung W25,” and may sport some unique visual touches reminiscent of the old Samsung W series of phones, including decorative engraving on the hinge.

Further proving this leak, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is reportedly being called the “W25 Flip” in China’s lineup, much like how the firm branded its clamshell foldable lineup up.

Although not much has been revealed about the specs and features of the Galaxy Z Fold 6Ultra, the mood and feel of this device are more or less palpable.

As the standard Galaxy Z Fold 6 gears up for its official unveiling at Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event next month, all eyes will be on the elusive Ultra variant.

With its potential limited availability in select markets, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra could become a coveted and exclusive device, further solidifying Samsung’s position as a leader in the foldable smartphone segment.

iOS 18 To Warn Users When A Slow iPhone Charger is Used

Highlights

  • Apple unveiled iOS 18 at the WWDC 2024.
  • There is a new feature in the battery section that can detect slow chargers being used and warn users.
  • As per Apple, this will help iPhone users make an informed decision regarding the battery health of their devices.

The Apple event during WWDC 2024 is a gift that keeps on giving.

Too many exciting things were announced and it is difficult to keep track unless you pay attention to every word uttered during the event.

But that’s what we are here for, to bring you the latest updates.

So, in the latest news, Apple doesn’t want you to use slow iPhone chargers and from now on whenever it notices that you do, it is going to warn you.

Let’s understand more.

iOS 18, introduced during WWDC 2024, brings some neat tweaks to how your iPhone handles battery health and charging.

Now, if you’re rocking an iPhone 15, you’ll find a few new options to tinker with in your Settings.

When you head over to the Battery section, nestled within the Settings app, you’ll spot a whole bunch of choices under “Charging.”

Apple’s upped the ante here.

Earlier, you could only cap your charge at 80%.

But now? Oh, now you’ve got way more control.

You can pick 85%, 90%, or even 95% if that suits your fancy.

There is a new feature in the battery section that can detect slow chargers being used and warn users.

But that’s not all.

There’s this nifty new feature that lets you know if you’re using a slow charger.

Just pop into the Battery menu, check out the Battery Level graph, and keep an eye out for a warning if you’re juicing up with a sluggish charger.

Oh, and they’ve jazzed up the graph with a snazzy orange hue to really drive the point home.

Now, while this is all exciting stuff, we might need to wait a bit for Apple to drop some more deets.

They’ll probably spill the beans in a support document once iOS 18 hits the streets this fall.

And as for what exactly qualifies as a “Slow Charger”?

Well, your guess is as good as ours for now.

FAQs

Q1. Which is the biggest Apple announcement in WWDC 2024?

Answer. Apple Intelligence was one of the biggest announcements that came out of WWDC 2024, with capabilities that include actions across apps − like carrying out tasks on your behalf.

Q2. What devices will support Apple AI?

Answer, The processing power required for Apple Intelligence means you may have to upgrade to a device that harnesses Apple’s robust semiconductors.

For now, that’s an iPhone 15 Pro or 15 Pro Max, which start at $999 or $1,199 respectively, or an iPad or Mac with Apple’s M1 chip or later.

Q3. What is special about iOS 18 announced in WWDC 2024?

Answer. As per Apple’s keynote, “With iOS 18, users will now be able to arrange apps and widgets in any open space on the Home Screen, customize the buttons at the bottom of the Lock Screen, and quickly access more controls in Control Center.

With the biggest redesign ever of the Photos app, photo libraries are automatically organized in a new single view in Photos, and helpful new collections keep favourites easily accessible.

All-new text effects come to iMessage, amplifying any letter, word, phrase, or emoji with dynamic, animated appearances to bring conversations to life.

Users can also now communicate over satellite in the Messages app, even when a cellular or Wi-Fi connection isn’t available.”

Q4. Is Apple bringing ChatGPT into its phones?

Answer. Siri’s big AI upgrade also includes an integration with OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot.

With the new integration, Siri will automatically determine whether a query would be better suited for ChatGPT.

It will then ask for your permission before sending its request to ChatGPT. You’ll be able to use ChatGPT through Siri for free and without an account.

Q5. What is Genmoji?

Answer. Genmoji opens up entirely new ways to communicate, letting users create a new emoji to match any moment.

While emoji are represented as text, Genmoji are represented as inline images.

If you are using standard UI frameworks to render text fields, you can support Genmoji easily.

For other situations, Genmoji is supported using AttributedString, a data type for representing rich text with graphics.

Q6. Is Apple releasing any hardware at WWDC 2024?

Answer. Over the years Apple has trotted out plenty of new hardware at WWDC, including the Vision Pro, its mixed-reality headset that made its debut at last year’s event.

But at the 2024 WWDC keynote, Apple chose instead to focus exclusively on new software features along with new AI tech that it’s marketing as “Apple Intelligence.”

Q7. What are the advantages Of iOS 18 Updates For Users ?

Answer. This notification offers many benefits :

Users can make the right choices about charging.

If the users are in a hurry , they can go for a more powerful charger to speed up the charging .

  • To be informed about using a slow charger will help users to set realistic expectations for charging times.
  • Using the right chargers can potentially improve battery health over time as per many ongoing discussions.

Q8. What does iOS 18’s Battery Section tell You If You Used a Slow Charger?

Answer. Apple updated the Battery section of the Settings app in iOS 18 to add a feature that lets you know if you charged your iPhone with a “slow” charger.

Periods of slow charging are shown with an orange bar in the portion of the Battery settings that show battery usage and charging over the past 24 hours or the past 10 days.

We saw the slow charging notice after charging with a 5W wireless charger, as did a Redditor who highlighted the feature.

It’s not clear what exactly is considered “slow,” but the designation is useful for those who are seeing slow charging speeds and aren’t sure why.

Many wireless chargers claim to be MagSafe while being limited to Qi speeds or below, so this feature could help ‌iPhone‌ users understand why their devices aren’t charging at optimum speed.

There does not appear to be an option to enable an alert when charging from a slow charger, which could be an arguably better feature because the battery settings are somewhat hidden.

There is a tappable information button that accompanies slow charging notices, but as of right now, it goes to a support document that does not yet exist.

Highlights

  • One UI Watch 6 beta available for Galaxy Watch 6 in the US and Korea
  • Enhanced sleep analysis and energy level tracking with Galaxy AI
  • New double pinch gesture for easier navigation and multitasking
  • Notification settings can now be adjusted directly from the watch

Samsung has officially rolled out the One UI Watch 6 beta to users through the Samsung Members app, marking the arrival of the next generation of Wear OS and One UI Watch for the Galaxy Watch series

However, there are a few limitations to this initial beta release.

Firstly, it’s currently available only for the Galaxy Watch 6 in the US and Korea, with Samsung noting that other Wear OS-based watches will receive the beta at a later point. 

Additionally, LTE versions of the watch cannot download the beta for now.

One UI Watch 6 Beta: How to Get it

The new One UI Watch 6 beta is based on Wear OS 5 and integrates some of Samsung’s recently introduced Galaxy AI features for Galaxy phones, tying in with the company’s revamped ecosystem.

This move follows Samsung’s announcement that a new version of One UI Watch would be coming to the Galaxy Watch series shortly after the unveiling of its Galaxy AI capabilities.

For Galaxy Watch 6 users who can access the beta, the process is straightforward: simply swipe through the feature cards in the Samsung Members app until you find the One Watch UI card and tap it.

After agreeing to the terms, users can explore the new changes and enhancements.

One significant addition is a more detailed sleep analysis and energy level tracking throughout the day, powered by Galaxy AI

However, observing these features’ impact will take time.

A notable change is the introduction of a double pinch gesture for selecting certain features in the operating system.

This gesture, similar to the Universal Gestures feature in accessibility settings, is now integrated into the OS, allowing users to scroll through notifications, turn off alarms, and perform other actions with a simple double pinch.

A small finger icon on buttons within apps will indicate when this gesture can be used.

For those who still prefer to use Universal Gestures, there’s a significant improvement: recommended actions will now be automatically highlighted during certain situations, such as the answer button being highlighted when receiving a call.

Multitasking has also been improved, with a simple tap on the bottom of the watch face displaying all active apps running in the background, making it easier to adjust the most important ones quickly.

WhatsApp is Testing a New Feature to Transfer Chat History with a QR Code

0
WhatsApp Enhances Storage Management with New Filtering Features

Highlights

  • WhatsApp testing QR code chat history transfer for Android
  • New feature eliminates the need for Google Drive backups
  • Video calls now support up to 32 participants
  • Screen sharing with audio and speaker spotlight feature introduced

WhatsApp is testing a new tool meant to simplify the switching of devices for the user by allowing the transfer of chat history using a QR code for Android users.

The “Transfer chat history” feature is meant to let users do without Google Drive when transferring their chats between devices.

New WhatsApp Chat Transfer Feature in Beta

WhatsApp is testing a new feature to make it easier for it’s users to transfer chats.
WhatsApp is testing a new feature to make it easier for it’s users to transfer chats.

This latest development comes after a similar feature was discovered in a beta update last year, suggesting that the company is experimenting with different ways to allow chat history transfer. 

As tweeted by WABetaInfo, a popular and unofficial WhatsApp news portal, the transfer chat history feature can be viewed on the beta version of the app on Android- version 2.24.13.6.

This feature, as of now anyway, is made available only for Android users in the said beta version but it’s not clear as of yet whether or not Apple will spawn the feature for iOS.

However, given that WhatsApp on iOS uses iCloud for backing up chat history, the feature should be useful for iOS devices as well, although there are no details yet on when it might be introduced for Apple’s platform.

WhatsApp Enhances Video Calling Experience

Apart from the chat history migration feature, WhatsApp has also confirmed a number of upgrades for its video calling feature.

Most significantly, up to 32 people will now be able to participate in a video call from any device.

Also, video calls on WhatsApp now allow screen sharing with audio so that users can easily do so during video calls.

The next to be introduced is the “speaker spotlight” feature where the person speaking would automatically be highlighted and his image shown on the screen.

It says that “over the next few weeks” these new video calling enhancements will be available to all WhatsApp users.

The company is said to be relentlessly focused on audio and video quality, thus its service ensures its users get clearer calls irrespective of the user’s place.

To improve call reliability, WhatsApp has recently launched a new codec that enhances noise and echo cancellation for mobile device calls, while also providing higher resolution for video calls on fast connections.

How will WhatsApp users transfer Chat History with QR

whatsapp-new-features-photo-getty-images-182016829-16x9
New feature eliminates the need for Google Drive backups

Users will have to open the chat transfer section and use their old phone’s camera to scan the QR code which will be available on their new device.

After the user scans the QR code, the chat history will get transferred to the new Android phone.

WaBetaInfo says that the feature has been spotted in the WhatsApp beta for Android 2.23.2.7 update, but it may not be visible to everyone.

There are many ways to back up chats & transfer them.

Users can save chats locally in the phone’s storage or cloud storage solutions like Google Drive.

Once this is done the next step is to log in to WhatsApp on a new device, and then the app lets you recover the chat history.

To recover data from local storage is little difficult while through Google Drive it’s a little simpler .

WhatsApp users can enable auto backup for chats.

The chat backup option can be seen in the messaging app itself.

The steps below need to be followed –

  • WhatsApp’s settings > Chats > Chat Backup.
  • You can select “Daily” option in the Back up to Google Drive section.
  • WhatsApp let’s you select your own Google account or any other email id, which you can enter in the Choose an account section.
  • The iPhone users get iCloud option to backup chats.

FAQs

What is the new chat history transfer feature on WhatsApp?

The new feature allows Android users to transfer their chat history between devices using a QR code, eliminating the need for Google Drive backups.

Is the chat history transfer feature available for iOS?

Currently, the feature is only available in the beta version for Android, and there is no information yet on when or if it will be introduced for iOS devices.

What video calling upgrades has WhatsApp introduced?

WhatsApp has upgraded its video calling feature to support up to 32 participants, added screen sharing with audio, and introduced a speaker spotlight feature.

When will the new video calling features be available?

The new video calling enhancements will be rolled out to all WhatsApp users over the next few weeks.
