The University of Maryland is introducing two new artificial intelligence bachelor’s degree programs. One focuses on building AI systems, while the other explores the technology’s ethical, social, and human implications.
A new Hexagon study found that people are far more comfortable with robots handling physical labor in warehouses and factories than caring for patients or teaching children. The findings reveal where the public is drawing the line as robotics adoption grows.
Amazon has announced a $10 billion investment in a new Missouri data center campus that will create hundreds of permanent jobs and thousands of construction positions. The project reflects the growing demand for cloud computing and AI infrastructure across the United States.
An AI-powered restaurant in Beijing says it can serve 500 diners an hour with only three human workers. Automated cooking equipment, smart plates, and data-driven operations are reshaping how meals are prepared and served.
CrowdStrike believes the traditional login-and-trust model is no longer sufficient for autonomous AI agents. The company is pushing a new approach that continuously evaluates whether an AI agent should be allowed to act, potentially changing how organizations think about identity security in the AI era.
Americans now spend an average of 52 hours and 12 minutes online every week, according to a new NordVPN study. The research also reveals how quickly AI chatbots have become part of everyday digital life.
Artificial intelligence may not be eliminating jobs as quickly as many feared, but it is changing what employers expect from workers.

OpenAI’s new Partner Network aims to create 300,000 certified consultants by 2026. The move suggests the biggest challenge in AI is no longer building the technology but helping companies use it effectively.
Sundar Pichai’s Stanford commencement address focused on optimism, hard work, and following your passions. But for the CEO of Google, one topic seemed notably absent: artificial intelligence. I explore whether the omission was intentional and why it stood out during one of the most transformative periods in technology history.
Anthropic’s forced shutdown of its newest AI models may be about government regulation on the surface, but it exposes a much larger issue. Businesses are increasingly building critical workflows around AI services they do not control. Whether the risk comes from regulators, outages, pricing changes, or vendor decisions, putting all your eggs in one AI basket could prove to be a costly mistake.
AMD is now accepting pre-orders for its Ryzen AI Halo Developer Platform through Micro Center. Powered by the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 processor and featuring 128GB of unified memory, the $4,000 system is designed for developers who want to build and run large AI models locally on Windows or Linux.
Anthropic says the U.S. government ordered it to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 over national security concerns. The company disputes the reasoning behind the directive, arguing the alleged jailbreak is limited and that similar capabilities exist in competing AI models. The move could become a major moment in the debate over government oversight of advanced AI.
