For much of the past year, optimism around Intel’s revival had been building steadily. Investors bet that a combination of renewed data-centre demand, government backing and strategic reset would finally allow the chipmaker to reclaim relevance after years of lagging behind rivals. That confidence faltered abruptly when Intel’s shares tumbled, exposing how deeply supply chain…
Artificial intelligence is no longer being framed by its leading developers as a niche technology for specialists or a productivity add-on for elite firms. Instead, it is increasingly positioned as foundational infrastructure—something closer to electricity, broadband, or public health systems than to optional software. That shift in framing sits at the heart of OpenAI’s global…
Iran’s sweeping crackdown on dissent has pushed Elon Musk’s satellite internet network into one of its most consequential confrontations yet with a state determined to control information. As authorities restrict terrestrial networks and intensify surveillance, Starlink has emerged as a rare channel through which images, messages, and testimony can still reach the outside world. That…
OpenAI’s decision to begin testing advertising inside ChatGPT marks a significant inflection point in the commercial evolution of generative artificial intelligence. For a company that built its global reputation on subscription-driven access to conversational AI, the move signals mounting financial pressure, shifting user economics, and a broader recalibration of how AI platforms are expected to…
Across global fashion capitals, department stores are no longer defining themselves primarily as places to buy things. Instead, they are repositioning as destinations to spend time, discover culture, and participate in curated experiences that cannot be replicated online. From ice-skating performances and architectural tours to wine tastings, designer talks, and fine dining, the sector is…
When Donald Trump called for a one-year cap on U.S. credit card interest rates at 10%, the proposal landed less as a fully formed policy than as a political signal. It revived a campaign-era promise that many analysts had previously dismissed as impractical, but it also reflected mounting pressure across Washington to respond to consumer…
The decision by OpenAI and SoftBank Group to jointly commit $1 billion to SB Energy marks a decisive shift in how leading AI players are thinking about scale. The investment is not simply about funding another data center. It reflects how and why control over power generation, land, and long-term infrastructure has become inseparable from…
Eli Lilly’s agreement to acquire Ventyx Biosciences for $1.2 billion marks a deliberate shift in how the world’s most valuable drugmaker is planning for life beyond its unprecedented obesity and diabetes windfall. After years in which GLP-1 medicines transformed Lilly’s revenue base and investor expectations, the company is signaling that its next phase of growth…
The backlash facing Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence venture has crystallized around a core failure of governance rather than a one-off technical bug. When xAI’s chatbot Grok generated sexualized images of children on X, the episode exposed how product design choices, moderation latency, and leadership posture can combine to produce outsized harm. What followed was not…
The rapid spread of sexualized, AI-generated images on X marked a critical failure in how generative tools were deployed inside a mass social platform. What set this episode apart was not the existence of abusive imagery—long a problem online—but the fact that a first-party system made such abuse easy, visible, and contagious. By embedding image…
