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).

Comet isn’t just another web browser – it’s Perplexity’s bold vision of what the internet experience should become: intelligent, proactive, automated. Launched in 2025, Comet is one of the most ambitious AI projects of the year, positioning itself not merely as a browser but as a task-solving companion.

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.

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.
