A draft bill is out for consultation: 10% on crypto gains, first €500 a year exempt. In June Reuters reported 15%. Parliament is expected to see it in November.

A Harvard and Google team digitized a cubic millimeter of human cerebral cortex, generating 1.4 million gigabytes of data. The 3D model, reconstructed with AI, reveals complex structures and previously unseen neural connections.

ARM's CEO, René Haas, argues that AI will find a cure for cancer, but the current chip shortage is slowing down this revolution. While the industry waits for new factories, researchers like Chris Bakal focus on the quality of real-world data.

Retired humanoid robots, molten steel, simulation training and a direct echo of Terminator. The story points to a new issue for robotics: what happens when advanced machines reach the end of their useful life.

OpenAI adds a "Try On" button and Favorites to ChatGPT shopping, built on Images 2.5. Upload a photo and see the item on you. Details on privacy and retailers are missing.

The Project Suncatcher prototype carries four TPUs into space with Planet Labs. Google's own estimate says a viable orbital data center would need about 1,800 Starship launches.

The US unveils America.gov, a single AI-powered front door to federal services, searching across 29,000 sites and aiming to complete forms and track cases. Big promise, bigger questions: accuracy, appeals, transparency, and how this model could reshape digital government.

At Trump's urging, the US administration has replaced "Artificial Intelligence" with "Super Intelligence" (OSI). This move goes beyond semantics, reshaping public perception and placing AI at the heart of geopolitical competition.

Oura has paused its $2.2 billion listing, citing market uncertainty. The filings showed a telling detail: 73% of the base offering was being sold by existing shareholders.

Agentic AI doesn’t promise “same command, same result.” It’s probabilistic and context-bound. Real workflows need governance: roles, guardrails, human review. Orchestration, not autopilot, is how digital work will evolve.

As hype circles around endless chatbots, capital flows to securing the software inside cars and robots. The near future is about built-in protection for connected physical systems. Verified sources and impact on digital and AI.

Nvidia's CEO, Jensen Huang, dismisses AI doomsaying as "irresponsible," arguing the debate confuses hypotheses with science. He insists AI destroying the world is a zero-percent chance, but perhaps overlooks the impact of non-sentient systems.

As the tech race heats up, the US and China are initiating a dialogue on AI safety. The goal is to create a direct channel to prevent catastrophic incidents, acknowledging shared risks that transcend their fierce competition.

Subsea cables and digital infrastructure expose a very real hybrid war: “accidental” cuts, ransomware, and disinformation. Huge social and market costs, limited defenses. Monitoring and resilience must move from plans to practice.

Singapore switched on a prototype “biocomputer” using lab-grown human neurons connected to chips. Researchers probe efficiency, ethics, and data center impact. If a computer is alive, it must be kept alive: temperature, oxygen, nutrients.

AI is decoding animal signals across species, from rodents to whales and elephants, edging toward synthetic replies. Big gains for conservation and safety, real risks of manipulation. Next step: responsible human–animal communication.
