These are the daily Tech Headlines for Tuesday, June 3rd, 2025. I'm Rob Dunwood. WhatsApp is developing a usernames feature to enhance user privacy by allowing connections without sharing phone numbers. Discovered in a test flight beta by WA BetaInfo. Users will be able to select uni handles similar to Telegram and Signal while not yet live. Code indicates active development of the interface and rules, including restrictions on starting with www and the use of lowercase letters, numbers, periods and underscores. Upon successful selection confirmed with a confetti animation, the username will appear in charts and groups instead of the phone number, with notifications for username changes. The web version will also support username availability checks, suggesting an upcoming launch following the recent iPad app release. Google Wallet will discontinue its PayPal account integration for US users on June 13, preventing them from using their linked PayPal accounts for payments. This comes after Google stopped the ability to link PayPal accounts to Google Wallet in April. This does not affect German users or US users with a direct PayPal branded debit MasterCard. While the reason for a US specific termination is unclear, it coincides with PayPal's recent contactless payment feature launched in Germany, leading to the speculation about a similar US launch, though the continued support in Germany remains according question the FDA has implemented the generative AI tool ELSA across the agency to assist employees in tasks ranging from clinical reviews to investigations. This AI, which completed a successful pilot program with scientific reviewers, aids in reading, writing, summarizing, label comparisons and code generation, aiming to expedite clinical protocol reviews and scientific evaluations, as well as identify high priority inspection targets. The FDA emphasizes Elsa's secure platform within Amazon Web Services, GovCloud, and views its launch as the beginning of its AI integration, with plans for ongoing development based on employee usage. Microsoft will stop prompting Windows users in the European Economic Area to switch to Edge, a change driven by the Digital Markets Act. These users will also gain the ability to uninstall the Microsoft Store and setting a different default browser will automatically pin it to the taskbar. These features currently live in Edge version 137.0 and rolling out widely in July for Windows 10 and 11, extend beyond browser defaults to include more file types and will allow third party apps to integrate their web search results into Windows search. TikTok has officially launched TikTok for Artists, a music insights platform designed to aid artists in career development by providing data on song and post performance follower demographics and access to guides and resources. Complementing this, the new pre release tool enables artists to promote upcoming albums and allow fans to pre save them on Spotify or Apple Music, reinforcing TikTok's shift towards music discovery and promotion as evidenced by the shutdown of its TikTok music streaming service eight months ago. TikTok for Artists is currently available in numerous countries across several continents and will expand to others. Meta has partnered with Constellation Energy to keep an Illinois nuclear reactor running for 20 years. More a first for the tech giant this boasted Constellation shares by 13.4% in pre market trading. The agreement is crucial given rising US power needs from AI data centers pushing big tech to secure stable electricity while.
