Reddit has quietly been reinventing how users find answers — not just through upvotes and threads, but now via generative AI. With the launch of Reddit Answers, the platform is no longer just a social forum; it’s becoming a powerful knowledge engine. And as of October 2025, it’s available in German, marking a key step in Reddit’s international expansion of AI features.

Artificial intelligence is no longer just a practical tool for many people – it’s becoming a potential conversational partner, and perhaps even an emotional one. That’s the central finding of a new study from Germany’s digital industry association Bitkom, painting a striking picture of how human communication is evolving in the digital age.

A new and growing problem is surfacing in the world of AI-powered search: second-order hallucinations. While standard AI hallucinations involve a language model making up facts or misrepresenting information, second-order hallucinations occur when a search engine picks up errors that were themselves generated by another AI system—and presents them as fact. The issue is subtle, but potentially far more dangerous than simple mistakes, as it allows misinformation to spread in a feedback loop between machines.

Imagine a browser that doesn’t just show you websites but thinks, plans, summarises, and even acts on your behalf. That’s exactly what Comet, the new AI-powered browser from Perplexity, sets out to deliver. Now available for free to all users, Comet signals a bold challenge to Chrome, Edge and other major players – positioning itself not just as a browser, but as your intelligent digital assistant.

From the outside, all seems well: Wikipedia continues to be used by millions around the world, editorial activity remains strong, and accessing the world’s most comprehensive free encyclopaedia is as natural in 2025 as it ever was. But under the surface, something is shifting. A new study from King’s College London casts a clear, sober light on the subtle power shift taking place in the digital knowledge space – one driven by artificial intelligence.

In the fast-evolving world of generative AI, there are plenty of tools – but very few that truly unlock the full potential of large language models (LLMs) in real-world applications. LangChain is one of those rare exceptions. Now widely regarded as the go-to open-source framework for building advanced LLM-based solutions, LangChain brings clarity, structure and deep integration to a field that has long been dominated by ad-hoc prompts and disconnected experiments.

What was once just a search bar is now becoming a digital assistant. In September 2025, Google began rolling out its most significant browser update to date: the deep integration of Gemini into the Chrome browser. While it may seem like a handy new feature on the surface, this development marks a fundamental shift in how we interact with the internet. Chrome is no longer just a window to the web – with Gemini, it becomes a co-pilot for everyday digital life.

Stan Lee, the man behind Spider-Man, the Avengers and countless other comic book icons, passed away in 2018. Yet his legacy is about to be revived in a form that is as fascinating as it is controversial: this year’s Los Angeles Comic Con will feature an AI-driven hologram of the legendary Marvel creator. The organisers are calling it the “Stan Lee Experience” – promising something far more immersive than a simple tribute.
