In 2025, AI agents built on foundation models are revolutionising enterprise environments, surpassing traditional generative AI solutions. While most organisations still deploy ChatGPT-like applications, leading companies are adopting autonomous AI agents that respond to commands and execute complex business processes with minimal human intervention. Data-driven results from enterprise implementations demonstrate
The concept of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has long been employed in academic and technological discourse; however, it only began to garner widespread recognition in the mid-to-late 2010s, a period marked by pivotal breakthroughs in AI development that fundamentally transformed the landscape of its potential applications. Early in the decade,
On 4 April 2025, GitHub released a public preview of its official, open-source Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server, enabling developers to facilitate seamless communication between artificial intelligence models and the GitHub API. This development is significant as it provides a unified approach for AI models to access GitHub functionalities, such
On 8 April 2025, Amazon announced the Nova Sonic foundation model, which combines speech understanding and speech generation into a single model, enabling more human-like voice-based conversations in AI applications. This new technology not only comprehends what is said but also how it is said—including tone, style, and speech
The European Commission is set to propose simplifications to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), introduced in 2018, focusing primarily on reducing administrative burdens for small and medium-sized enterprises in the coming weeks. The planned amendments aim to enhance the competitiveness of European businesses while preserving the GDPR’s core
According to a study published by Forethought Research on 26 March 2025, the complete automation of AI research and development could potentially lead to a software-driven intelligence explosion. The researchers examined what happens when AI systems become capable of fully automating their own development processes, creating a feedback loop where
European Union regulators are preparing to impose significant penalties on Elon Musk's social media platform X for violating the Digital Services Act (DSA), which could include a fine exceeding $1 billion and forced product changes. The EU investigation launched in 2023 found that X broke the law by
On 8 April 2025, Chinese DeepSeek AI introduced its novel technology, Self-Principled Critique Tuning (SPCT), marking a significant advancement in the reward mechanisms of large language models. SPCT is designed to enhance AI models’ performance in handling open-ended, complex tasks, particularly in scenarios requiring nuanced interpretation of context and user
On 11 March 2025, the third draft of the EU General-Purpose AI (GPAI) Code of Practice was published, raising significant concerns among industry stakeholders and legal experts. Designed for providers of GPAI models like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Midjourney, the Code aims to assist businesses in complying with the EU
Generative artificial intelligence (generative AI or GenAI) tools represent an emerging branch of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms (Tan et al. 2024, 168). In contrast to traditional AI models, which typically categorise data or make predictions based on learned patterns (Turchi et al. 2023, 35), generative AI extends beyond the mere
OpenAI’s GPT-4o image generator went viral almost instantly after thousands of users began creating images in the iconic style of Studio Ghibli, raising serious copyright concerns. The artificial intelligence mimics the Japanese animation studio’s visual world with remarkable accuracy based solely on text prompts. The phenomenon was amplified
In a study published on 8 April 2025, researchers from Semmelweis University demonstrated that OpenAI’s GPT-4o model achieved a 93% accuracy rate in identifying acne and rosacea, while Google’s Gemini Flash 2.0 model correctly identified these skin conditions in only 21% of cases. The scientific study used
