Valve prepares SteamGPT to boost Steam operations and block fraud accounts

Reference data tied to SteamGPT was spotted in Steam client update files, with terms linked to generative AI systems. Leaked-file analysis suggests a focus on back-end operations, including report labeling and a summary function reviewing security variables to assess account trustworthiness.

Amazon to end support for older Kindle devices
Amazon will end support on May 20 for Kindle models released before 2012.

After the change was emailed to users, criticism spread in online communities, TechRadar reported. Users cite continued functionality, the single-purpose nature of e-readers and concerns about electronic waste. Some plan to use sideloading as a workaround.

Google allows Gmail address changes, but only once a year
Google is rolling out a feature for U.S. users that allows them to change their Gmail address without creating a new account. The company is distributing the capability for the first time in more than 20 years since Gmail launched.

Google limits username changes to once every 12 months and restricts deleting the new address during that period. Old addresses remain as alternate addresses, and users can log in with both.
