Artificial intelligence is reshaping the games industry, but not quite in the way many expected. The biggest breakthrough isn't unbeatable enemies or fully AI-generated games. Instead, it's a new layer of interaction. Game characters can understand natural language, respond to changing situations, act as teammates and support players in entirely new ways. At the same time, AI is transforming game development itself – from asset creation to testing.

The legal battle between Midjourney and the Hollywood studios Disney, Universal and Warner Bros. Discovery has evolved into far more than a conventional copyright dispute. While the studios accuse the AI company of using copyrighted characters and creative works to train its image generation models without permission, Midjourney has launched an unexpected counterstrategy: it wants the studios to reveal how they use artificial intelligence themselves.

Artificial intelligence is changing the rules for people entering the workforce. Many tasks that were once considered classic entry-level work can now be automated or at least significantly accelerated: research, initial analysis, drafting presentations, writing first versions of documents, generating code snippets, preparing data and responding to customer enquiries. Precisely because of this, it is no longer enough for graduates and junior employees to be hardworking, reliable and technically competent.

With Scout, Microsoft is taking its AI strategy a significant step further. Until now, Copilot has largely functioned as an assistant: answering questions, summarising documents, drafting content and helping users complete tasks. Scout, by contrast, is designed not merely to respond but to work in the background. Microsoft describes this new category of systems as “Autopilots” – always-on agents capable of identifying, prioritising and carrying out tasks without requiring constant instructions.

While many countries are still debating whether students should be allowed to use ChatGPT in the classroom, Estonia has chosen a far more ambitious path. Through AI Leap, the Baltic nation is...

The race for AI-powered robots – between industrial transformation, safety and geopolitical power

At CHI 2026 in Barcelona, Apple is not showcasing major product launches, but something arguably more significant: a set of research contributions that offer a rare glimpse into how the company is thinking about the future of interfaces, accessibility and data-driven design.

The warning does not come from a start-up or a trade union, but from UNESCO. In its latest report on the future of the creative economy, the organisation outlines a scenario that extends far beyond technological disruption. Generative AI and platform-driven markets, it argues, could lead to significant income declines for creative professionals by 2028 — not as a temporary shock, but as a structural shift.
