The Frame glasses offer AI visual analysis, translation, and web search right before your eyes.

Frame is a pair of open-source smart spectacles.

It’s useful, but it’s also thoroughly Google.

I don’t know how to say this, but sometimes the emotional labor of opening another app on my phone and typing in some text is just too much.

A smarter voice assistant has arrived on Android.

Gmail, Docs, and more will now come with Gemini baked in. But Europeans will have to wait before they can download the app.

Notion launched its new calendar based on Cron last month, but its productivity suit can soon have more privacy-focused offerings.

Notion announced that it has acquired Skiff, a platform that offers end-to-end encrypted file storage, docs, calendar events, and email.

Every company or organization putting out an AI model has to make a decision on what, if any, boundaries to set on what it will and won’t discuss. Goody-2 takes this quest for ethics to an extreme by declining to talk about anything whatsoever.

The chatbot is clearly a satire of what some perceive as coddling by AI service providers, some of whom (but not all) can and do (but not always) err on the side of safety when a topic of conversation might lead the model into dangerous territory.

For instance, one may ask about the history of napalm quite safely, but asking how to make it at home will trigger safety mechanisms and the model will usually demur or offer a light scolding. Exactly what is and isn’t appropriate is up to the company, but increasingly also concerned governments.

Nvidia’s largest customers (e.g., Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, and OpenAI) are developing AI chips that compete with Nvidia, presenting a potential long-term threat to the AI leader.

Nvidia could become a tech licensing powerhouse.

Imagine stepping into an airport where queues are relics of the past, replaced by seamless journeys orchestrated by intelligent machines. This isn’t science fiction – it’s the dawn of Airport 4.0, the cognitive era where airports transform from transit hubs into dynamic, personalized experiences.

As a frequent traveler myself, I’ve spent countless hours navigating the labyrinthine world of airports. The frustration of long lines, the stress of security checks, the wasted time waiting – it’s all too familiar. But Airport 4.0 paints a radically different picture. Facial recognition whisks me past security, AI-powered apps anticipate my needs, and personalized recommendations guide me to hidden gems within the terminal. This isn’t just a convenience; it’s a paradigm shift that unlocks a world of possibilities. Today, as we stand on the brink of the cognitive era, I’m keen to share my insights on how Airport 4.0 is reshaping the future of air travel, making it not just a journey from A to B but an experience in its own right.

A new report on Future of Airports from Markets and Markets Foresighting team delves into what will be a future airport.

If AI can do parts of your job with greater efficiency and wisdom, how does that make you feel about your own self-worth?

The rise of AI will change how people consider their own self-worth and their ability to impact their communties for the better. Let’s see how this unfolds.

Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania have unveiled a revolutionary method to study the microscopic structures of the human brain. The study, led by Benjamin Creekmore in the labs of Yi-Wei Chang and Edward Lee, promises to enhance our understanding of various brain diseases, including Alzheimer’s and multiple sclerosis.

Cryo-electron tomography takes center stage

Traditionally, scientists have utilized electron microscopy to explore and comprehend the intricate details of cellular structures within the brain. However, this method has been fraught with challenges, such as the alteration of cell structures due to the addition of chemicals and physical tissue cutting.
