What happens when music, musicians, and myth are entirely created by machines – and no one notices? The Velvet Sundown is the answer. In June 2025, a seemingly new indie rock band appeared out of nowhere on major streaming platforms, released two nostalgic-sounding albums, and amassed hundreds of thousands of monthly listeners on Spotify in just a few weeks. It looked like a breakout musical phenomenon – until it emerged that the band wasn’t real. Not the members, not the voices, not even the songs. The Velvet Sundown is a meticulously crafted AI project that demonstrates just how deeply artificial intelligence is already reshaping the music industry – and it raises urgent cultural questions in the process.

Mark Zuckerberg is going all in. With a planned $29 billion capital raise, Meta is embarking on the most ambitious investment in its corporate history—a bold strategic move designed to position the company as a global leader in artificial intelligence. In an escalating race with OpenAI and Google, this unprecedented financing round will be used to build a sprawling network of AI-focused data centres across the United States, turning Meta into a computing powerhouse.

The fusion of quantum computing and artificial intelligence – often referred to as Quantum Machine Learning (QML) – marks a profound shift in the development of advanced technologies. While conventional AI models are increasingly constrained by physical and algorithmic limits, quantum-based systems offer entirely new computational pathways for tackling problems previously deemed unsolvable. This evolution has the potential to transform not just the speed of machine reasoning, but also its depth and quality.

A new study from the renowned MIT Media Lab has sparked considerable debate in recent days. Headlines are full of dramatic claims: using ChatGPT when writing supposedly makes the brain sluggish, weakens memory, and stifles creative thinking. Talk of AI causing “mental decline” spread rapidly. But on closer inspection, it becomes clear: while the study offers interesting insights, it’s far from proving that ChatGPT is inherently harmful to our minds.

Few topics have captured global attention in recent weeks like the statements of Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI. Altman is speaking openly about humanity standing on the threshold of what he calls the AI singularity — a point at which artificial intelligence surpasses human intellect across all domains and begins to autonomously improve itself.

Few concepts have spread so swiftly among web developers, SEO experts and AI specialists as “llms.txt”. Behind this unassuming text file lies an idea that could reshape how websites interact with large language models (LLMs).

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.

Unveiled at Google I/O last week, Veo 3 is the latest and most advanced generative video model from Google DeepMind—and it’s making waves across creative and tech communities alike. This groundbreaking AI is not just about producing realistic visuals; it marks a turning point in how videos are imagined, directed and delivered. From hyperrealistic scenes to full audio production and precise editing controls, Veo 3 positions itself as the new benchmark in AI-driven video generation.
