OpenAI’s latest governance frameworks offer enterprise leaders a structured blueprint for scaling safe and compliant AI deployments globally.The adoption of large language models has steadily progressed towards requiring sustainable, commercial-grade architecture.
WIRED published an excerpt from Steve Rosenbaum’s buzzy new book, The Future of Truth, which looks at how artificial intelligence warps people’s sense of reality. Shortly thereafter, The New York Times reported that the book contained over a half-dozen made-up or misattributed quotes.
Groq is looking to raise $650 million in new funding from existing investors, sources tell Axios, as it leans into its inference neocloud business that relies on its homegrown AI chip and systems.

Loading the player… The people deciding that AI can replace your job are also the ones least likely to understand what your job truly involves, according to Box founder Aaron Levie, who pointed to this as an example of “AI psychosis.” Indeed, ClickUp recently cut 22% of its workforce for AI agents,
Earlier this month, I got my hands on the Kiwibit Bird Feeder 2 4K AI Camera, and it has become my favorite backyard accessory. Setting it up is pretty straightforward. Multiple mounting options allow you to place the feeder on a pole, window ledge, or tree.

TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 returns October 13–15 to Moscone West in San Francisco — and applications to speak are open for just a few more hours. We’re inviting founders, investors, operators, and technology experts to apply for a chance to take the stage at one of the most influential tech events of t
someone you’d expect to see as a speaker in the ceremony following Pope Leo’s historic AI encyclical, in which the pontiff called for “disarming” the technology. For one thing, Olah is an atheist who at 15 rejected his evangelical Christian upbringing.
Every time you ask ChatGPT a question, your request triggers a data relay race. Information leaves memory, passes through a CPU for preprocessing, travels to a GPU for heavy computation, and then makes its way back — and that entire journey repeats for every single word the AI generates. The bottlen
This is today's edition of The Download, our weekday newsletter that provides a daily dose of what's going on in the world of technology. How a new extraction process could unlock the world’s lithium A new method for extracting lithium could cut costs and emissions from one of the world’s most impor
Pope Leo XIV’s new encyclical on artificial intelligence includes a statement that warrants serious attention from technologists and policymakers: “Technology is never neutral.” Magnifica Humanitas (“Magnificent Humanity”) is a clarion call to all people to act with courage and solidarity as we ente
Anthropic has released Claude Opus 4.8, an upgrade to Claude Opus 4.7 that the company says brings improved results for coding, agent work, reasoning, and knowledge work. The platform can be used through claude.ai, Claude Code and the Claude API, with the API name claude-opus-4-8.
The alert was raised on May 5. Four health-care workers in the Ituri Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo had died from an unknown illness within four days. Rapid response teams were sent to investigate, and tests at a research center in Kinshasa revealed the culprit: the Bundibugyo viru
Glean, a company often described as the Google for enterprise, said it has reached $300 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR), a three-fold increase from the $100 million milestone it reached just 15 months ago. While many AI startups are growing at a blistering pace, Glean’s progress is particu
Asana has acquired the workflow automation company StackAI for $75 million, part of a larger effort to position itself as an AI-native workplace platform.
The controversy over vibe coding reached a new high this week after a developer added hidden instructions to his open source Java testing app to sabotage projects performed by AI coding agents. The instructions were added to jqwik, a test engine for JUnit 5, a platform for testing Java virtual machi
Cloud infrastructure has long been designed around humans who search, click, scroll, and stream in a steady and predictable fashion. AI agents behave differently.
Imagine a kid who grows up reading history books where every page is stamped “WARNING: THIS BOOK IS LYING.” You’d expect them to come away skeptical, or at least uncertain. New research on so-called “negation neglect” finds that LLMs in a roughly analogous situation don’t behave that way.
Researchers say they’ve found a new way to extract lithium, a crucial metal used in the lithium-ion batteries that power electric vehicles and energy storage arrays.
It’s impossible to totally avoid generative AI when interacting with technology anymore, but Apple has a bit less of it. That’s not entirely by choice, though.
