You can’t spot a hedgehog from space, but you might be able to find where they live by looking for brambles. That’s the premise behind ongoing research at the University of Cambridge, where scientists are using satellite imagery and AI models to map potential hedgehog habitats across the UK by first identifying their favorite hiding

Late last week, The Hollywood Reporter ran a story about an “AI Stan Lee hologram” that would be appearing at the LA Comic Con this weekend. Nearly seven years after the famous Marvel Comics creator’s death at the age of 95, fans will be able to pay $15 to $20 this weekend to chat with

The United States secretary of health and human services advocates against using the most

Google has unveiled its Agent Payments Protocol (AP2), a system designed to let AI agents autonomously handle transactions, from credit cards to stablecoins and even real-time bank transfers.

Not just a quick click-and-leave either. I actually sat down, gave prompts, built characters, flirted a little, asked awkward questions, and even pushed on the

Ever found yourself staring at a blank chat box, trying to kickstart an imaginative roleplay, only to realize your brain has temporarily gone on holiday? Happens to the best of us. That’s where AI tools step in, not as a replacement for creativity, but as that mate who always has a wild idea ready when

AI-powered search capabilities are continuing to work their way into toolkits as developers seek to speed up, optimize, and enhance their work. Fast-growing startup Perplexity has been a key player behind that push, and is now further bolstering its capabilities with a new search application programming interface (API).
