Samsung Electronics launched its air-source, heat pump-based home heating solution, the EHS Heat Pump Boiler, in South Korea on April 20. The product uses ambient air heat and electricity to provide space heating and hot water, and can generate more than four times the heat of the input electrical energy, the company said. It can supply hot water up to 70 degrees Celsius at minus 15 degrees and includes anti-freeze features.

Valve, which runs the global PC game platform Steam, appears to be preparing to introduce a generative AI tool called SteamGPT to improve internal efficiency such as incident reports and identification of abusive accounts.

Leaked-file analysis suggests a focus on back-end operations, including report labeling and a summary function reviewing security variables to assess account trustworthiness.
