Nobody knows how to build with AI yet

Last week I released Protocollie. Built in 4 days with languages I don’t know, without even directly touching the code. People keep asking “how?” but I’m not entirely sure it’ll work the same way twice. We’re all making this up as we go. The Great Experiment Nobody's Running the Same Way There's this moment in every new technology where everyone pretends they know what they're doing. We're past that moment. Or maybe we haven't reached it yet. Either way, we're in this delicious middle ground

How to Buy an Electric Bike (2025): Classes, Range, Repairs

Love them or hate them, electric bikes are here to stay. Between 2019 and 2023, electric bikes represented 63 percent of the growth in dollar sales of all bicycles. Translated to actual numbers, the US ebike market was valued at $1.98 billion in 2022. It’s expected to grow by 15.6 percent from 2023 to 2030. Some electric bike customers haven’t been on two wheels since they rode a Schwinn Stingray with a banana seat; others are lifelong cyclists who want a little extra oomph to flatten the hills

The Pixel Watch 4 might not become e-waste if you damage it

Google is hosting its annual Pixel event on August 20, which will likely feature the Pixel 10 series and the Pixel Watch 4. The new Pixel phones are expected to retain the physical design of last year's phones, but a new report claims Google's smartwatch is getting an important hardware upgrade—it may finally be repairable. Google has stuck with the same design for all three generations of the Pixel Watch, making changes only to internal components, displays, and charging. Even with the year-to

Finding value from AI agents from day one

From assuming oversight for complex workflows, such as procurement or recruitment, to carrying out proactive cybersecurity checks or automating support, enterprises are abuzz at the potential use cases for agentic AI.

The New Intern on Wall Street Is an AI, and It’s Already Taking Jobs

The transformation underway in finance should give pause to anyone who still thinks artificial intelligence is a distant threat. On July 15, Wall Street met its most overqualified and tireless intern. AI safety and research company Anthropic, a chief rival to OpenAI, unveiled its new “Financial Analysis Solution,” an enhanced version of its Claude AI assistant designed to take over the research, modeling, and compliance grunt work that finance teams typically rely on junior analysts to perform.

2026 Mercedes-Benz CLA feels like a real car, not a science experiment

Mercedes provided flights from Detroit to Copenhagen, Denmark, and accommodation so Ars could drive the CLA with EQ Technology. Ars does not accept paid editorial content. The Mercedes-Benz CLA is a marked departure from Mercedes' EV efforts. Instead of a dedicated line of EQ vehicles—like the EQB, EQC, and EQS—we're getting vehicles "with EQ Technology." It started with the electric G Wagon, but the CLA is the first mainstream product to make the change. The thing is that the change is signifi

Tariff Troubles Ahead: Auto Experts Advice on Rising EV and Car Prices

It's not just iPhones and TVs that might cost more. President Donald Trump's tariff policies might be driving up the cost of electric vehicles and combustion cars, too. EVs, in fact, might be especially vulnerable to the new tariffs that target China (a major exporter of critical metals) and the steel industry. China already has a near monopoly on critical minerals and rare earth metals used to manufacture cars, and these tariffs have given China a reason to use that as leverage over the US. Th

Tidy up your Mac office space with a Thunderbolt dock hidden under your desk

Like many people these days, I work from home and use a 16-inch MacBook Pro with an external display. I have been a long-time user of the OWC Thunderbolt Dock which lets me connect my display and various peripherals to the hub’s I/O ports, with only a single cable plugged in to the laptop. This dock has simply sat atop the desk, until recently. I came across a further improvement to my setup which helps declutter even more. Quite simply, I discovered this cable management tray that lets the doc

Netflix Expands Zach Snyder's Rebel Moon Series With Blood Line Game

I never got around to watching Zack Snyder's Rebel Moon film series on Netflix. So, before I started playing an early version of Blood Line: A Rebel Moon Game through Netflix Games, I was nervous I wouldn't understand what was happening. But you don't need to have seen the films to enjoy this mobile game.
