SLACK CODE: CODING BECOMES A TEAM SPORT

Slack has just launched “Slack Code,” a feature that turns software development into a group activity inside the very chat app where teams already talk. Instead of one engineer working alone with an AI tool, anyone—product managers, designers, even non-technical staff—can join a shared “code channel” where AI agents draft code, show live previews, and iterate […]

AI’S BRAKE PEDAL: SAFETY BEFORE SPEED

More than 1,000 employees from leading AI companies recently asked governments to create a way to slow down the development of powerful AI systems. Their concern is simple: AI is moving faster than safety checks, laws and public understanding. They want development to be paced when the risks become too high. The Hugging Face incident showed why this

META’S ADDICTIVE MACHINE: KIDS IN THE CROSSFIRE

Meta is on trial in Oakland, with 29 U.S. states accusing it of deliberately designing Facebook and Instagram to addict children — using infinite scroll, algorithmic feeds, and push notifications to keep young users hooked for hours. Internal documents and whistleblower testimony suggest the company knew these features could harm mental health but deployed them anyway, prioritizing

AI’S TRUST CRISIS

AI’s trust problem comes from exaggerated promises, opaque decisions, job and privacy fears, deepfakes and security failures. The public also feels that companies are moving faster than governments and society can respond. When AI leaders warn about dangers while building more powerful systems, people see contradiction rather than responsibility. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei says marketing cannot repair this

HONOR’S ROBOT PHONE: THE CAMERA THAT MOVES ON ITS OWN

Honor has launched the world’s first “robot phone” with a motorised titanium camera arm that pops out and follows people or objects on its own. Priced at $1,400–$1,820 in China, it pairs a 200MP camera on a tiny robotic gimbal with AI that decides where to point. Unlike normal phones, this one hides a four-joint titanium

SELF AI AUDIT

The concept turns your AI conversation history into a mirror for self-reflection. By exporting months or years of chat logs and feeding them back into an AI with a specific audit prompt, you let pattern-recognition algorithms identify contradictions between your stated values and actual attention. It’s essentially using AI as an external, data-driven coach that has witnessed

FRONTIER AI’S NEED FOR SPEED: REVOLUTION OR HYPE?

OpenAI’s new Ultrafast tier shows that frontier AI is competing not only on intelligence, but also on speed. Powered by Cerebras, GPT-5.6 Sol is claimed to deliver up to 750 tokens a second — nearly 14 times faster than standard processing. It is currently an invite-only API preview aimed at time-sensitive business tasks. Such speed could help cybersecurity teams,

A DECADE IN THE MAKING, A STATEMENT REBORN

For nearly ten years, Apple has chased Jony Ive’s vision of a “single slab of glass” iPhone—a seamless, futuristic device that would redefine smartphone aesthetics. The dream was never just about looks; it was a technological Everest, symbolising Apple’s ability to merge engineering with art. The world watches closely because when Apple shifts design language, the

META’S AI COMEBACK: WHY OPEN MODELS MATTER

Open-source AI allows developers to download, study and improve models instead of depending only on big technology companies. Meta’s Muse Glimmer, a 30-billion-parameter model, has open weights and can run locally on powerful consumer devices. This could make advanced AI cheaper and more accessible. The United States may lose momentum if excessive restrictions slow AI development
