Experiments in using AI to build AI show that the future doesn’t just belong to the frontier labs.

After more than a decade of pushback, farmers and repair advocates have won access to equipment and services John Deere had long kept under its control.

Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are betting on AI, health tech, and startups. Mohamed Salah is taking a more traditional route beyond football.

The animal escaped after apparently arriving inside a package at Meta's Bangkok office, injuring one employee before finally being caught.

Even though they haven’t been officially announced yet, Samsung is giving you a chance to save some cash when you preorder what we’re expecting to be the brand’s updated Galaxy Z Fold phones. The next Galaxy Unpacked event will take place on July 22nd, 2026, and features the tagline “A new shape unfolds.” In addition […]

Meta might be the next company to make an always-on AI wearable. The company is working on prototype "super sensing" always-aware smart glasses that could continuously record audio and snap photos "every few seconds," according to the Financial Times. The wearer could then ask Meta AI about the captured audio and images. However, the images […]

Google DeepMind postponed Gemini 3.5 Pro to July 17, 2026 after abandoning its original foundation in favor of a longer pre-training cycle. The move reflects growing pressure from GPT-5.6 and Claude Fable 5, as frontier AI competition shifts from incremental upgrades to major architectural leaps. While Gemini 3.5 Flash remains available, enterprise teams may need multi-model deployment strategies until Pro arrives.

Enterprise AI in regulated industries should borrow proven safety practices from aviation and nuclear engineering rather than relying on new governance frameworks. Explainability, rigorous configuration management, continuous monitoring, human oversight, and least-privilege architectures provide a more trustworthy foundation for deploying AI in safety-critical environments.

Claiming aliens don't exist just because we haven't met them is like a goldfish in a bowl claiming oceans don't exist. The silence of the universe isn't absolute proof we are alone, but could instead be a deliberate protective barrier of cosmic isolation and mismatched timelines. Ultimately, our technology might just be an accident of human biology, meaning other civilizations may have evolved in ways that are completely unfathomable to us.

RAG systems can confidently generate answers that contradict their own retrieved context, with no errors anywhere to flag it. This article builds a self-healing layer that validates retrieval quality before generation, verifies grounding after generation using a separate LLM-as-judge, retries once with a rewritten query on failure, and falls back to an honest "couldn't verify this" response otherwise. Every failure gets logged asynchronously to Kafka, where independent consumers automatically gr...

This article explains how to architect a globally distributed, read-heavy web application using region-local SQLite shards, SvelteKit, Bun, Fly.io, and Litestream. It explores practical design decisions that reduce latency, simplify infrastructure, and keep operating costs low without relying on a traditional backend.

Euro stablecoins hold less than 0.3% of the dollar stablecoin market and are losing ground to the Turkish lira. MiCA was designed to bring clarity to crypto in Europe. It achieved that — and simultaneously made euro stablecoin issuance economically unviable.

Rendering PDFs to images in C# is easy. Choosing the right library for scale, fidelity, licensing, and deployment is harder.

The RWA market may have surpassed **$50 billion** in tokenized assets, but that doesn't mean institutional capital has arrived. Tokenization solved asset representation, not capital deployment. Institutions still face fragmented wallet access, shallow liquidity, limited yield opportunities, and settlement risks that make large-scale allocation unattractive. The next phase of RWA growth depends less on creating more tokenized assets and more on building the infrastructure that lets capital move e...

Drawing on the Critique of Agent Model paper, this article argues that many modern AI agents are better described as agentic workflows than genuinely agentive systems. It explores the distinction through concepts like persistent goals, adaptive identity, self-regulation, world models, and continuous learning, offering a more rigorous framework for evaluating autonomous AI.

When you work with agents, the data from your interactions becomes the prime commodity — the raw material for building the next iteration and training the next generation of agents to do the job more accurately and more efficiently. Even the mistakes and errors are valuable learning opportunities. It is no coincidence that the flagship coding agents came from the two leading model labs, and those same labs shipped the most advanced models right after. Your interaction with your agents is unique....

Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets AI discover and use new tools on the fly. Each MCP server becomes a domain-specific intelligence hub that can serve multiple agents while maintaining its own security and business logic.

This beginner-friendly guide explains the core mechanics of neural networks, focusing on weights, biases, gradient descent, and batch processing. Through analogies, simple Python examples, and practical learning advice, it aims to help new AI learners build an intuitive understanding of how neural networks learn and why foundational mathematics is essential.

As worries about a growing super El Niño mount, new findings suggest a radical solution to mitigating its impacts.

Matthew Danzeisen’s lawyer says the case is a “shakedown about a bag” that brushed someone’s leg. Stefanie Bojar says she was injured aboard the jet—and that the lawsuit is a bullying tactic.

OpenAI is overhauling ChatGPT's voice mode with a new model that it says is more like "talking to another person." The new GPT-Live-1 is designed to interrupt you less and will also wait for you to continue speaking if you pause mid-conversation. During a press briefing, OpenAI research lead Kundan Kumar called GPT-Live-1 the company's […]

If you’ve got a summer trip coming up, the last-gen Twelve South AirFly Pro is one of those gadgets that can make a long flight feel a little shorter. It lets you use your wireless headphones with in-flight entertainment systems, and right now it’s on sale for $39.99 ($15 off) at Amazon. That’s the best […]

This week, Microsoft took a huge ax to its Xbox business. The company announced that it would be laying off 1,600 workers now, 1,600 more over the next fiscal year, and that it would be shedding four studios. Xbox CEO Asha Sharma hasn't been shy about why she's making such dramatic cuts, saying in a […]

A little robotic switch-flipper has become my sidekick in combating cockroaches. Before I got the SwitchBot Bot Rechargeable, I'd tiptoe through the dark every morning, hoping I wouldn't step on one of those terrible bugs scurrying around as I made my way to the light switch across the room. Now I'm ready for battle before […]

When searching for an affordable electric vehicle these days, there are always tradeoffs. How much range are you willing to sacrifice, how much leg room and storage space, how many features, in the pursuit of that magic sticker price that won't break the bank? The Fiat Topolino is basically the ultimate embodiment of those tradeoffs. […]

As part of Microsoft's big Xbox "reset," which includes layoffs affecting 3,200 staffers, jettisoning studios, and shifting investments to focus on "higher priority projects," Obsidian Entertainment is changing its plans. The studio, behind games like Grounded and The Outer Worlds, is starting work on a new Fallout title and has canceled "multiple projects," including a […]
