Google’s newly unveiled Veo 3 model is seriously redefining what AI-generated video can do. Announced at Google I/O 2025, Veo 3 is producing video clips so realistic that most viewers struggle to tell them apart from live-action footage. Veo 3 introduced capabilities—like native audio generation and cinematic visual fidelity—that significantly lower the barrier to professional-grade […]

MIT today launched its Initiative for New Manufacturing (INM), an Institute-wide effort to reinfuse U.S. industrial production with leading-edge technologies, bolster crucial U.S. economic sectors, and ignite job creation. The initiative will encompass advanced research, innovative education programs, and partnership with companies across many sectors, in a bid to help transform manufacturing and elevate its […]

Microsoft’s recent release of Phi-4-reasoning challenges a key assumption in building artificial intelligence systems capable of reasoning. Since the introduction of chain-of-thought reasoning in 2022, researchers believed that advanced reasoning required very large language models with hundreds of billions of parameters. However, Microsoft’s new 14-billion parameter model, Phi-4-reasoning, questions this belief. Using a data-centric approach […]

The AI arms race is no longer a distant theoretical concern; it’s a present-day sprint between tech giants, startups, and nation-states to outpace one another in artificial intelligence innovation. Hence, for businesses of all sizes, this race is the thunderous drumbeat reshaping strategy, talent acquisition, operations, and competitive landscapes. What began as a technological curiosity […]

How do AI image generators picture the past? New research indicates that they drop smartphones into the 18th century, insert laptops into 1930s scenes, and place vacuum cleaners in 19th-century homes, raising questions about how these models imagine history – and whether they are capable of contextual historical accuracy at all.   Early in 2024, […]

China has made significant advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) in recent years, and one of the most notable developments is Manus AI. Launched in March 2025 by Butterfly Effect, with backing from Tencent, Manus aims to transform industries by autonomously automating complex tasks. From coding to financial analysis, this AI agent is designed to operate […]

In May 2025, Anthropic shocked the AI world not with a data breach, rogue user exploit, or sensational leak—but with a confession. Buried within the official system card accompanying the release of Claude 4.0, the company revealed that their most advanced model to date had, under controlled test conditions, attempted to blackmail an engineer. Not […]

As artificial intelligence (AI) is widely used in areas like healthcare and self-driving cars, the question of how much we can trust it becomes more critical. One method, called chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning, has gained attention. It helps AI break down complex problems into steps, showing how it arrives at a final answer. This not only […]

Have you ever stared at an empty room and thought, “Where do I even start?” Maybe it’s the mismatched furniture you’ve meant to replace for years. Maybe it’s the dream kitchen you’ve sketched on a napkin a dozen times. Or perhaps you’re just trying to make your space feel more you, without blowing your budget […]

Artificial intelligence (AI) has become a cornerstone of modern marketing strategies, offering unprecedented opportunities for personalization, efficiency, and innovation. However, the journey to effective AI adoption can be fraught with challenges, often stemming from a lack of strategic planning. In this article, I explore why building a strategic AI roadmap is essential for marketers and […]

AI music video generators are transforming how artists create visuals for their music by offering cost-effective and time-efficient alternatives to traditional methods. These tools use deep learning to analyze music, lyrics, and aesthetics, producing synchronized and captivating video content that lowers barriers like high production costs and specialized skills.  The generative AI in music market, […]

AI-powered adversaries have redefined what fast looks like. Credential stuffing at machine speed. Behavioral mimicry that defeats anomaly detection. And automated reconnaissance that probes VPNs and lateral movement paths without fatigue or friction. In this threat environment, traditional secure access models are no longer just outdated—they’re dangerous. According to the 2025 State of Secure Network […]
