As artificial intelligence advances at breakneck speed across the globe, the European Union is stepping forward with one of the most ambitious regulatory frameworks to date. Alongside the landmark AI Act—the world’s first comprehensive law on artificial intelligence—Brussels has now introduced a voluntary but potentially influential Code of Conduct aimed specifically at developers and providers of general-purpose AI models (GPAI).

A startling new development at the intersection of artificial intelligence and academia is sending shockwaves through the scientific community. In a growing number of research papers, investigators have uncovered deliberately hidden prompts—commands designed to influence AI-powered review tools.

It sounded too good to be true — and it was. Shared millions of times, hotly debated and swiftly taken at face value by many: the claim that every citizen of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) was getting free access to ChatGPT Plus turned out to be a complete misunderstanding. But this episode reveals more than just a slip-up — it exposes how fast misinformation travels in the age of AI, and why falsehoods around new technologies spread with such alarming ease.

A new study by researchers from Harvard, Wharton, and Procter & Gamble reveals: artificial intelligence is no longer just a tool – it’s becoming a true teammate. It boosts performance, bridges expertise gaps, and even motivates. Most impressively, AI-enhanced teams deliver top-tier results more frequently. The researchers' call to action: it’s time for organisations to rethink teamwork.

What began as a sprinkle of digital magic has, in just a few days, become a global debate about art, copyright, and the role of artificial intelligence in creative culture. With the release of its GPT-4o image generation tool, OpenAI introduced a feature that allows users to produce illustrations in the iconic style of the Japanese animation studio Studio Ghibli. What started as playful experimentation quickly went viral—unleashing both admiration and outrage, and raising profound legal and artistic questions.

The digital world stands at a pivotal moment. Where once firewalls and manual updates formed the front lines of enterprise defence, today we’re witnessing a high-speed, invisible arms race—machine versus machine. In 2025, artificial intelligence is no longer just a tool in the cybersecurity toolkit; it has become the core force in defending against a new generation of threats—and, increasingly, a target itself.

Retail advertising is undergoing a seismic shift, and at the heart of this transformation is artificial intelligence. For decades, marketing relied on experience, intuition, and broad audience targeting. But AI has rewritten the rulebook, bringing a level of precision, efficiency, and adaptability that was previously unimaginable. Advertising is no longer static or one-dimensional—it is dynamic, intelligent, and often tailored to an individual before they even realise what they want.

From 2 February 2025, businesses and their employees will enter a new era in their use of artificial intelligence. On this date, one of the central provisions of the European AI Act will come into force: the importance of demonstrable competence in the use of AI. This means that AI tools, regardless of their purpose or risk level, should only be used by individuals who possess the necessary expertise.
