New Delhi: Google is under fire again, this time from its own employees. Several workers have come forward claiming that the company used internal documents, private user data, and confidential materials to train its AI models without proper permission. This has created a major debate about transparency and ethics inside one of the worlds biggest tech companies. According to the employees, some datasets used for AI training included sensitive information that should not have been accessed. They say there were no strong checks to stop such data from entering the training pipeline. Many workers who reported these issues say their…

New Delhi: The leadership in the European Union is now considering relaxing some of the strict regulations on artificial intelligence. This shift comes after heavy pressure from big tech companies like Microsoft, Google, and other advanced AI players that say the current rules are too tough and may slow down innovation. The original plan of the EU was to make very strong AI laws controlling everything from how data is used to how transparent models are, to even how much risk certain AI tools can pose. Large tech players in their argument say that many of these aforementioned rules might…

New Delhi: Despite importing much less Russian oil than earlier, India’s major state-run oil refiners had massive profits in Q2. Combined earnings of such companies as Indian Oil, BPCL, and HPCL jump massively; their year-on-year profits soar 457%, which is big. The reason? Global oil market conditions were more favorable for them than just cheap Russian crude. This was because the cost of producing fuel declined due to international crude prices falling, while demand for refined products remained strong and the refining margin (the “crack”) expanded considerably. For instance, diesel cracks-a kind of refining margin-soared, along with margins for both…

New Delhi: A new AI tool has shocked the world by being able to clone any persons voice in just three seconds. This means the system only needs a small audio clip to perfectly copy a persons tone, style, and even emotions. While tech lovers are excited about such advanced AI, many experts are extremely worried. They warn that this tool could lead to a new wave of identity theft and financial fraud. Scammers can use cloned voices to trick people into sending money or revealing private information. For example, a fraudster could copy a parents voice and call their…

New Delhi: A new wave of anger is rising among Indian startups as they protest against the increasing number of GST audits and tax notices. Many young business owners say the frequent inspections, repeated demands for old documents, and long verification processes are making it extremely difficult for them to run their companies smoothly. Startups say the biggest problem is the uncertainty. Even small companies with limited revenue are receiving large notices and are asked to submit paperwork that is sometimes five to seven years old. Entrepreneurs say this slows down growth, scares investors, and takes away time that should…

New Delhi: Google is under fire after its new AI-powered search tool started giving strange and incorrect answers to users around the world. This tool, designed to give quick and smart summaries, confused people with unusual suggestions and wrong facts. Many screenshots of these wrong answers went viral on social media, leading to a debate about whether Google rushed the feature. Its AI tool was supposed to help users by giving short summaries at the top of the search results, but many times, the tool gave misleading information. For some users, it showed fake historical facts, while for others, it…

Every year, as Ganesh Chaturthi and Navratri bring color, devotion, and togetherness to cities across India, sculptors work quietly behind the scenes to give shape to the divine. For them, these festivals are not just celebrations, they are a chance to bring art, faith, and emotion together in one powerful form. For many devotees, a sculpture isn’t just a piece of art; it’s a symbol of protection and peace. “When a murti enters a home, it brings a sense of divine security,” the sculptor explains. “It’s not just about clay or paint, it’s about faith. Each idol carries hope and…

New Delhi: A new AR app has taken things a bit wild, it lets people “block” real individuals in real life. Yes, you heard it right — not only on social media, but in your actual physical world, through your phone or AR glasses. Some find it fun and quite ingenious; many others are deeply alarmed at the ethical dimensions involved. Here’s how the app works: You point your camera at someone, and the app conceals them, making them invisible to you. In other words, that person disappears or vanishes in your personal AR view. To the user, that feels…

New Delhi: Recently, OpenAI announced a massive cloud computing deal that enables it to run AI models on an enormous number of powerful servers. Although this sounds exciting to technology fans, many experts are now asking whether this push will further deteriorate the already growing crisis of energy consumption, especially in regard to AI. The deal now means that OpenAI can use more data centers than ever, raising its demand for electricity. Data centers use tons of power to operate and cool thousands of servers. All that power usually comes from non-renewable sources, such as coal or natural gas, which…
