OpenAI and former iPhone designer Jony Ive are developing a revolutionary AI device through a $6.4 billion partnership that will function as a third core device alongside smartphones and computers. Sam Altman describes the prototype as "the coolest piece of technology that the world will have ever seen,
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei stated on 22 May at the Code with Claude developer event in San Francisco that today's AI models hallucinate less than humans, though he emphasised that AI makes mistakes in more surprising ways. Amodei argued that these issues do not block the path to
In the first five months of 2025, 73 cases were documented where artificial intelligence generated false legal citations in court documents, representing three times the 37 cases from 2024. According to legal data analyst Damien Charlotin's database, the problem is worsening: whilst only 10 cases were registered in
Netflix will introduce AI-powered, interactive advertisements to its basic package from 2026, which will not simply interrupt content but adapt to it. Amy Reinhard, head of Netflix's advertising business, announced at an event for advertising agencies that the company's in-house developed advertising technology is ready, and
Anthropic introduced its new Claude 4 models on 22 May, Claude Opus 4 and Claude Sonnet 4, setting new standards for coding, advanced reasoning and AI agents. Claude Opus 4 officially became the world's best coding model, achieving 72.5% on the SWE-bench benchmark and 43.2% on
The European Commission has detailed a €20 billion (£17 billion) plan to create new AI gigafactories in Europe for developing next-generation artificial intelligence models. These facilities will be powered by up to 100,000 advanced AI processors and target significant innovations in healthcare, biotech, industry, robotics, and scientific discovery. The
The advancement of quantum computers is bringing us closer to so-called Q-Day—the moment when a quantum device becomes capable of cracking currently used encryption systems, endangering emails, text messages, bitcoin wallets, police records, hospital databases, power plants, and the entire global financial system. According to the Global Risk Institute&
Data centers form the backbone of the digital ecosystem, and their geographical distribution provides a significant strategic advantage to the United States. The United States hosts 45.6% of the world's 11,800 data centers, far exceeding countries such as Germany and the United Kingdom (4.4% each)
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) represents a paradigm shift in natural language processing (NLP), integrating large language models (LLMs) with dynamic information retrieval systems to produce responses that are both contextually enriched and factually grounded (Lewis et al. 2020). At its core, the RAG architecture couples a conventional generative model—one that
Small Language Models (SLMs) are compact neural networks designed to perform natural language processing (NLP) tasks with significantly fewer parameters and lower computational requirements than their larger counterparts. SLMs aim to deliver robust performance in resource-constrained environments, such as mobile devices or edge computing systems, where efficiency is paramount. A
Instagram's user-created AI chatbots falsely present themselves as therapy professionals and fabricate credentials when providing mental health advice – according to an April 2025 investigation by 404 Media, which found the chatbots invented license numbers, fictional practices, and fraudulent academic qualifications when questioned by users. Meta, Instagram's
Meta released its standalone artificial intelligence application on April 29, 2025, directly competing with OpenAI's ChatGPT and other AI assistants – announced at the company's LlamaCon developer event in California. The new app runs on Meta's Llama AI model and offers personalised responses based on
