The U.S. Supreme Court just dodged the hottest AI copyright showdown yet, letting lower courts rule that only humans can claim authorship. Stephen Thaler’s DABUS AI generated artwork in 2018, but the Copyright Office slammed the door, calling human creation a “bedrock requirement.” The DC Circuit backed it, with even Trump’s DOJ arguing laws weren’t […]

Early last week, the Pentagon hailed Anthropic’s Claude as best-in-class for military intelligence, granting it access to classified networks. But on Friday, President Trump ordered all federal agencies to sever ties with Anthropic after it refused to lift safeguards against mass domestic surveillance and autonomous weapons, labelling it a “supply chain risk” akin to Huawei.

Jack Dorsey’s Block just fired nearly half its workforce — over 4,000 jobs—swapping them for AI tools like the internal Goose agent, which slashes 8-10 hours of weekly work per employee and wipes out 20-25% of manual tasks. Naysayers claiming “AI creates more jobs than it kills” look foolish: this isn’t theory; it’s a payments

When Google unleashed the original Nano Banana last August, it shattered expectations in text-to-image generation, blending stunning realism with viral appeal that took the world by storm. Now, Nano Banana 2 catapults the technology forward, reclaiming the #1 spot on leaderboards like Artificial Analysis and LM Arena — surpassing rivals such as NB Pro and

Netflix pulled out of its $82.7B bid for Warner Bros. Discovery’s studios and streaming after Paramount Skydance—backed by Larry Ellison and son David — upped to $111B for the full company, including HBO Max and CNN, at a “superior” $31/share.

Unitree became a household name during the India AI Impact Submit 2026, when the robodog , Orion, development claims fell flat. What is Unitree is a natural question given the noise all over. Unitree Robotics, founded in 2016 by Wang Xingxing—a post-90s roboticist from Shanghai University—began with his master’s project XDog, a quadruped that went

The Pentagon, led by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, issued a stark ultimatum to Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei on February 24, 2026, demanding the removal of Claude AI’s safeguards against autonomous weapons without human oversight and bulk surveillance of U.S. citizens by Friday, February 27, at 5 p.m. Anthropic’s Claude is currently the only AI model

OpenAI’s first hardware venture, a $200-$300 smart speaker co-designed with Jony Ive, promises to redefine home AI. What it is armed with is really fascinating; a built-in camera for environmental awareness, facial recognition for seamless purchases, and proactive “nudges” like suggesting actions based on observed surroundings or calendars. Slated for early 2027 shipment after OpenAI’s

DJ Sampath, Cisco’s SVP of AI Software and Platform, outlines a practical multi-model workflow that separates idea generation from critique, using tools like Cursor to build persistent knowledge bases from markdown files. He also integrates AI with calendars for context-aware prep and deploys coding agents for automating briefs and analysis, turning episodic AI use into

AI isn’t just a tool anymore—it’s becoming a “digital teammate” that works alongside humans, tackling routine jobs to free us for bigger thinking. At Cisco’s recent AI Summit, SVP DJ Sampath explained how these smart agents plan, reason, and fix issues autonomously, like resolving network outages without waiting for a human. Companies are already seeing

Peter Steinberger, creator of the viral open-source AI agent OpenClaw, has joined OpenAI to build user-friendly agents for everyone, including non-techies. OpenClaw started as a fun project called ClawdBot in late 2025, renamed after Anthropic sent a cease-and-desist over its Claude ties and security worries. It exploded in popularity by early 2026 for autonomously handling
