For years, the AI industry has pushed the idea that faster always means better. Faster models, quicker coding, speedier research—just get there before anyone else does. Now, one of the biggest players in AI is hitting the brakes and saying: hold on, speed itself could be the actual danger. Anthropic, the company behind Claude, wants the world’s top AI labs to work out a way to slow down or even pause building the most advanced AI systems if the risks keep growing. They’re not asking for an immediate halt. What they want is trickier—an agreement that would let big labs…

Entrepreneurship is never a smooth ride, but starting a business in 2026 is nearly like trying to build a plane while head for Goliath. From all angles: the West-Asia deadlock has closed the Strait of Hormuz, storm’s hitting the world’s energy markets. The OECD is waving red flags across the continent for global recessions, and the future of industry is being nuked by a dizzying and frenzied adoption of AI technologies. The sweet spot for volatility. But, as history has repeatedly shown us, economic downturns are like a mineral-rich vein of possibility. Necessity is the mother of invention, and necessity…
It has been a tense summer for the global economy, with political uncertainties, skyrocketing energy prices and concerns about the fast-growing use of AI simultaneously dominating the weeks since the UK parliamentary elections. In that context, dozens of world-renowned mathematicians have signed a statement calling for the Institute of Mathematical and Physical Sciences to seriously consider the possible consequences of AI in mathematics, to ensure that the best scientists are used for the good of society. The statement, known as the Leiden Declaration on Artificial Intelligence and Mathematics, adopts a view that is far from simply a knee-jerk ideological reaction…
For almost 20 years, people have talked about Yahoo as the company that missed its shot online. They used to be one of the biggest doors to the internet, but then Google blew past them — grabbing almost all of the global search market while Yahoo faded into the background as a familiar but mostly forgotten brand. Now, things are shifting. AI is changing how we all find information online, and Yahoo is making its boldest move in ages. Back in January 2026, they rolled out Yahoo Scout, their own AI-powered answer engine. Scout isn’t another search tool with a…
Google wants to release up to 32 million mosquitoes in California and Florida, hoping to cut down on diseases like West Nile virus and Zika. Their Debug project isn’t new — it’s part of Alphabet’s life sciences division, and it’s all about using biology instead of typical chemicals. Instead of spraying pesticides everywhere, they plan to release male mosquitoes infected with Wolbachia, a harmless bacterium. Here’s the trick: when these males mate with wild females, their eggs don’t hatch. Over time, it shrinks the mosquito population that spreads disease. Right now, the EPA’s looking over the proposal — first phase…
For years, the car key was a quiet constant in our lives, even as cars themselves got smarter. Screens replaced dials, engines turned into computers, and everything about the driving experience became more high-tech—except for the key fob you tossed into your bag every morning. That old routine might finally be changing, especially in India. Here’s the scoop: MacRumors recently discovered that Apple is getting ready to support Mahindra cars with its Apple Car Key technology. Neither Apple nor Mahindra has made anything official yet, but this looks like a big step. Apple’s clearly moving beyond luxury car brands and…
Kathmandu: Nepal Prime Minister Balendra Shah’s remarks in Parliament acknowledging instances of cross-border cultivation into Indian territory have drawn attention in New Delhi, with the development being viewed as a potentially significant moment in ongoing India-Nepal border discussions. Speaking before Nepal’s Parliament on Sunday, Shah stated that technical assessments had identified cases where local residents were cultivating or using land that legally falls on the Indian side of the border. The comments marked an unusual public acknowledgment by a Nepali prime minister regarding border management complexities involving India. The statement comes against the backdrop of longstanding boundary administration challenges along…
Looks like Indian football fans are finally getting some good news — Zee Entertainment’s close to locking in a deal to broadcast the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with reports pegging the deal somewhere between $30 million and $35 million. For months, people wondered if anyone would actually step up to show the world’s biggest football tournament in a country where the sport’s growing fast. Once the agreement is done, Zee plans to air the games on its new Unite8 Sports network and stream them on Zee5. That ends the uncertainty about who’ll bring the tournament to screens in India. The…
For years, the easy answer to automation anxiety was: let robots do the work, and the state will hand out cash to keep us afloat. Universal Basic Income sounded like the best fix for a world where human labor couldn’t compete. But now, as AI stretches deeper into everything we do, that old promise is starting to seem naive. The real issue isn’t just losing jobs; it’s losing the value we actually create to tech systems we don’t control, don’t own, and don’t profit from. That’s why Universal Data Wages is getting attention. It flips the script: instead of treating…
New Delhi: This year’s UPSC Civil Services Preliminary Exam, held on May 24, has really stirred things up among students, teachers, and coaching centers. People are saying it wasn’t just hard, it was a marathon. Most who took the test are calling it the toughest in years, with a heavy focus on analysis instead of rote learning. Not surprisingly, early predictions suggest the General Category cut-off will sink to somewhere between 75 and 79 marks, and honestly, it might dip even lower once all the results are in. These numbers aren’t just random. If you look at the cut-off scores…
