In April, an Earth-observation satellite reportedly crossed a threshold that has long separated “smart imaging” from truly autonomous sensing: it found what it was looking for on its own. Not just by capturing data and sending it back for later…
The AI layoff wave is no longer just a story about technology replacing tasks. It’s becoming a story about timing, distribution, and trust—about what happens when the economic shock arrives faster than the social contract can adjust. In recent months,…
Legora, a legal AI startup valued at $5.6bn, says it is preparing to double its headcount as demand for its services accelerates—an unusual growth story that blends product momentum with a high-profile marketing push fronted by actor Jude Law. The…
Battery technology has always advanced through a familiar rhythm: propose a chemistry, synthesize materials, test them under increasingly realistic conditions, and repeat—often for years—until performance, safety, cost, and manufacturability line up. That process is not just slow; it is also…
For years, the AI industry has treated “efficiency” as a kind of straight line: make models smaller, reduce compute, optimize kernels, and energy use will follow. But the reality emerging from researchers, infrastructure teams, and sustainability analysts is more complicated—and…
Finance is entering a new era, and it won’t feel like the old one with a faster spreadsheet. It will feel like a different kind of work altogether: more decisions made with machine assistance, more data processed in seconds, more…
In a growing number of hiring processes, “AI experience” is no longer treated as a checkbox. Employers are increasingly asking candidates to demonstrate—sometimes in real time, sometimes through take-home work—how they would use artificial intelligence and adjacent technologies to solve…
Anthropic is scrambling to adjust to a sudden shift in US policy after the Trump administration moved to freeze access to its most advanced AI models, according to new reporting that points to Fable and Mythos as the systems at…
UK consumers lost more money to financial fraud in 2025 than at any point in the past four years, according to new figures that are already reshaping the debate between banks, regulators and the technology platforms that increasingly sit at…
The White House’s decision to impose export restrictions on Anthropic’s Mythos has reportedly been shaped by a concern that the model—or at least a version of its capabilities—may have been accessed by a group linked to China. The claim, first…
The IPO calendar has always been a kind of weather system for venture-backed startups: when the skies clear, capital moves; when storms roll in, companies hunker down and wait. But in the last year or two, the pattern has started…
AI is often discussed as if it were a simple replacement story: a machine takes over a task, a worker loses it, and the economy adjusts. But that framing misses the more immediate transformation happening in the background of everyday…
