Explore our reporting on how AI and robotics change work, business and the world.
A documented guide to deploy AWS's synthetic purchase-order sample, compare extracted JSON with the source PDF, inspect saved instructions, and identify checks its validator does not perform.
A documented setup sequence for BigQuery administrators: set project and per-user input and output token limits, check a small AI query, and identify rows affected by quota exhaustion.
Ai2's HiRO-ACEv2 adds wind and pressure to 3 km simulated rainfall. Its reported extreme-event matches are to X-SHiELD, with limits for forecasting and changed climates.
Square's new standalone kiosk lets diners order by voice or touch. Its answers depend on restaurant menu data, while setup requires a Plus or Premium plan and live connection.
A new Science Robotics paper details the camera, IMU and onboard control behind a 2025 drone racing win. The result is bounded to a known competition course.
Intel's new Inference Microservices select a Xeon serving profile for one model per container. Developers still need to secure the HTTP endpoint and test their workload.
YouTube Music is rolling out a player label for tracks with significant generative AI involvement. The disclosure does not reveal every step of a track's creation.
State attorneys general want data access, deletion and safety protections in any Character.AI sale. Their October 14 bankruptcy notice is a request, not an order.
Continues Character.AI enters Chapter 11 as Disney offers $20 million for a limited license
99 says trip telemetry and phone sensors can flag a possible incident on its motorcycle services for a 24/7 safety team. Staff check what happened before arranging help; accuracy and response-time results were not disclosed.
Deezer says listeners will be able to hide fully AI-generated tracks, albums and related artists from search, then restore them by switching the setting off. The global rollout is planned before the end of 2026.
Honeywell says Forge Cognition can triage building alarms, predict HVAC issues and simulate energy changes. Its Voyager pilot reports early results with important measurement limits.
QuEra reports 695 on-target recoveries in 700 testbed trials of a deterministic laser-relocking script developed with Claude. Its separate tuning workflow still uses AI.
NVIDIA has committed compute access valued at $250 million over five years for UK agent safety research. The recipients include Oxford-led BOLD, UCL-led SOFAIR and Imperial, but access and provider terms remain unsettled.
ASE says its PowerSiP expansion lets designers place voltage-regulator modules beneath AI processors. Its claimed 50% or greater reduction concerns parasitic routing losses; the public pages give no test method or system-level measurement.
DeepMind and Singapore's GovTech describe a two-stage phone-based scam detector: quick message screening followed by Gemma conversation analysis. Its rollout and results are unknown.
In ISE's 2026 survey, 92% of UK student employers suspected or confirmed misconduct. The public findings show where AI use is usually permitted and what the figure cannot prove.
Meta is rolling out topic controls and more detailed post feedback for Facebook Feed and Reels. This documentation-only guide explains the available steps and what remains untested.
Physical Intelligence’s Pi API beta lets selected robot teams upload task data, fine-tune a model on managed infrastructure and use hosted inference. Teams still need their own robots, demonstrations and repeated evaluation.
