The robotics AI space is seeing massive valuations. A new report suggests Skild AI, which builds a foundational model for robots, could see its worth nearly triple in just months with a huge investment from SoftBank and Nvidia.
In a new 53-minute video with LinusTechTips, Linux creator Linus Torvalds built a new PC and gave a wide-ranging interview. His most surprising take was a defense of Windows, arguing that a “big percentage” of Blue Screens of Death are caused by unreliable hardware, not Microsoft’s software.
NextEra Energy is partnering with ExxonMobil to develop a massive 1.2 gigawatt data center campus. The plan is to use natural gas generation paired with carbon capture tech and market the site to a hyperscaler by Q1 2026. This signals a major shift in how tech giants might power their AI ambitions.
OnlyFans CEO Keily Blair says the secret to her company’s massive revenue with a tiny team is eliminating middle management. She argues that no one has ever had a “really good middle manager,” and her 42 employees are all individual contributors.
Young people are facing a brutal job market, but a new report argues AI isn’t the culprit. The real issue is that companies across the board have simply stopped hiring at recessionary levels.
Samsung is reportedly planning to launch its Galaxy S26 series, including the Ultra model, in late January 2026. This would put it weeks ahead of the massive Mobile World Congress event starting March 2, a strategic move to dominate the news cycle.
Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) are nearing a real-world inflection point, with non-invasive tech leading the charge. Startups like Conduit are using AI to turn noisy EEG data into thought-decoding systems, aiming for a future of telepathy and thought-to-text.
Apple is in the midst of a major leadership transition. Key executives are retiring or being poached, while hardware chief John Ternus is positioned as the likely next CEO. The changes come as Apple faces intense pressure in AI and spatial computing.
For 180 years, scientists thought the Faraday effect was all about light’s electric field. New research shows its magnetic field is a major player, contributing up to 70% of the effect. This could lead to new ways of controlling data in memory and quantum computers.
Geoffrey Hinton, the ‘godfather of AI,’ says a computer science degree will be valuable for a long time, but not for training mid-level programmers. He and other tech leaders emphasize the degree’s role in teaching critical thinking and problem-solving as AI automates more coding tasks.
