ABC Adelaide Mornings: a nudity blocking phone

Can a phone prevent nudity, and will parents be told about it? And how heavy is AI usage on power? Pickr’s Leigh Stark joins ABC to explain.

If you’re a parent concerned about their kids accessing media and material that’s not only NSFW (not safe for work), but also not ideal for their age, a new phone could just make you feel a little better. But it does come with a catch: the HMD Fuse will block nudity, but not tell the parent when it happens.

This week on ABC Adelaide, host Rory McClaren jumped into this issue, and whether it was a surprise. Plus there’s conversation about the needs of AI and what’s coming from Apple in the very near future, with a possible thin iPhone.

Hear about all of that from ABC Adelaide Mornings on the August 27 program, kicking off at the 1 hour 8 minute 54 second minute mark (1.08.54).
