The higher volume also drove Bausch + Lomb's CEO, Brent Saunders, to embrace new AI software, which helps manufacturing workers monitor, test, and fix mechanical issues. The technology, called Atlas and produced by Arena AI, is designed to predict machinery issues before they arise and send alerts to maintenance workers so they can diagnose errors and fix them. Saunders said that Atlas was tested in Rochester in 2023 and, by last year,

That's because most top AI companies - like OpenAI, Microsoft, Anthropic, or Meta - operate in a primarily virtual space, processing unfathomably complex rivers of information into more digital information. AI-adjacent companies like Nvidia, Intel, and Oracle focus on providing the physical infrastructure upon which the AI machines function. Then there are the companies that are using digital intelligence to deliver physical results through automation and augmented experiences, like Tesla and Amazon.

"Given Google's scale, size and market condition, they need to come to a place of playing ball," Vogel said Monday.

Revenue at US companies providing AI infrastructure has risen by $400bn since 2022, which at first glance seems to suggest that AI has been a meaningful driver of economic growth recently. But official numbers tell a different story. AI technology has lifted real US economic activity by about $160 billion since 2022, or 0.7% of GDP. Yet only around $45 billion, or 0.2% of GDP, of AI-spurred growth has been recorded in official statistics. That leaves roughly $115 billion uncounted, according to the analysts.

Whether it's Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner or the legendary Novak Djokovic in the men's tournaments, Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek or Coco Gauff in the women's, the level of individual talent rises constantly. These improvements are attributable to the amazing natural talents of the athletes, combined with the best coaching the sport can offer. The right coach can make all the difference between being a player and being a champion.

OpenAI has added a beta of Developer mode to ChatGPT, enabling full read and write support for MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools, though the documentation describes the feature as dangerous. Developer community lead Edwin Arbus said that "in developer mode, developers can create connectors and use them in chat for write actions (not just search/fetch). Update Jira tickets, trigger Zapier workflows or combine connectors for complex automations." Limitations in the initial beta are that developer mode does not work in Team workspaces or in project chats.

I feel like if A.I. can make all of our lives better, why do we need to work for five days a week?

CrowdStrike and Meta are jointly introducing CyberSOCEval, a new suite of open source benchmarks to evaluate the performance of AI systems in security operations. The collaboration aims to help organizations select more effective AI tools for their Security Operations Center. Meta and CrowdStrike are addressing a growing challenge by introducing CyberSOCEval, a suite of benchmarks that help define what effective AI looks like for cyber defense. The system is built on Meta's open source CyberSecEval framework and CrowdStrike's frontline threat intelligence.

We're all experimenting with ChatGPT and every AI tool we can get our hands on. Sometimes it spits out gold. Other times? Not so much. Like when you ask it to write a training story about workplace safety and end up with something that sounds like a robot having an identity crisis. You read it, cringe, and think, "My old PowerPoint slides were more inspiring than this." Sound familiar? You're not alone.

The move comes amid an ongoing fight over pay and working conditions, according to workers who spoke to WIRED. Most raters working at GlobalLogic are based in the US and deal with English-language content. Just as content moderators help purge and classify content on social media, these workers use their expertise, skill, and judgment to teach chatbots and other AI products, including Google's search summaries feature called AI Overviews -the right responses on a wide range of subjects.

When a vendor offered 2000 tokens per second (TPS) of Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct (aka Qwen3 Coder) for $50 ( Cerebras Code Pro) or $200 ( Cerebras Code Max), I, like many, was spellbound. However, the offer was sold out almost instantaneously. When the next window opened up, I grabbed a Max plan immediately. Not shockingly, the 2k TPS claim is basically a lie.

AI organization tools are designed for this new reality. They go beyond filing and scheduling to anticipate needs, adapt plans in real time, capture action items automatically, and surface critical information before you even search for it. In this guide, we've curated the most effective AI productivity tools for the workplace to help you cut through the noise, maintain focus, and manage your work with clarity and precision.

Google's AI Summaries have already stirred up major opposition from the publishing industry since rolling out in May 2024, with trade groups claiming the service is making a serious dent in both their clicks and revenue. Now, Penske Media (PMC), the company behind brands like Rolling Stone, Billboard, Variety, and The Hollywood Reporter, is suing Google.

Manual data entry is nobody's dream job. Copying invoices, logging survey results, updating spreadsheets... it's slow and repetitive. And one typo away from chaos. If your days feel like one endless copy-paste loop, it's time to bring in reinforcements. AI-powered tools for data entry are built to tackle the grunt work. They extract, clean, validate, and organize your information-all while you focus on work that actually moves the needle.

In The Singularity is Nearer: When We Merge with AI, the futurist Ray Kurzweil imagines the point in 2045 when rapid technological progress crosses a threshold as humans merge with machines, an event he calls "the singularity." Although Kurzweil's predictions may sound more like science fiction than fact-based forecasting, his brand of thinking goes well beyond the usual sci-fi crowd. It has provided inspiration for American technology industry elites for some time, chief among them Elon Musk.
