 Threads seems to be rolling out a new location tagging feature that allows users to add a location to their posts. Some users have reported seeing the change in Threads' app, though it doesn't seem to be available to everyone just yet.
The feature is similar to location tagging on Instagram. When you give Threads access to your location, you'll see a list of nearby places to tag, though you can also manually search for a place. For example, I saw that a few users already jokingly tagged their posts as "hell."
According to an in-app disclaimer from Meta, the company plans to use location sharing to better customize Threads by showing "personalized content" about places nearby. The change could help improve Threads' search functionality, which still often falls short, and make the app slightly more useful for following breaking news and other timely events.

The change could also come in handy in the future when Meta finally flips the switch on advertising in Threads. Mark Zuckerberg has said the company plans to continue growing the service before bringing ads to the platform, but getting users' consent to sharing locations would provide a crucial bit of information for the company's ad machine.
Meta didn't immediately respond to questions about the feature, but the company appears to still be rolling it out. Locatio

Although the October edition of Amazon Prime Day isn't in full swing just yet, there are still tons of deals to be had, especially on the company's own products. A bundle of a Blink Outdoor 4 camera and Echo Show 5 smart display is available for just $60. That's $130 off the regular price and it marks a record low for this bundle. There is one caveat, though: this deal is only available to Prime members.
This bundle is one that makes a lot of sense. You'll be able to use your Echo Show 5 to get a live view of whatever the Blink Outdoor 4 camera is capturing with a simple Alexa command.

Keith Sonderling, commissioner of the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), has for years been sounding the alarm about the potential for artificial intelligence (AI) to run afoul of federal anti-discrimination laws such as the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
It was not until the advent of ChatGPT, Bard, and other popular generative AI tools, however, that local, state and national lawmakers began taking notice — and companies became aware of the pitfalls posed by a technology that can automate efficiencies in the business process.
Instead of speeches he'd typically make to groups of chief human resource officers or labor employment lawyers, Sonderling has found himself in recent months talking more and more about AI. His focus has been on how companies can stay compliant as they hand over more of the responsibility for hiring and other aspects of corporate HR to algorithms that are vastly faster and capable of parsing thousands of resumes in seconds.
