techcrunch.com Kate Park 2025-12-06 18:00:00

Eyebot, a startup offering a 90-second vision test kiosk that delivers doctor-verified glasses prescriptions, has secured $20 million in Series A funding. The Boston-based startup, founded in 2021, streamlines how people access vision care by eliminating traditional obstacles, such as appointment delays, limited accessibility, complex insurance requirements, and cost.

Bridging the Governance Gap: AI, Risk, and Enterprise Innovation

computer.org Laurel Tweed 2025-12-07 00:00:05

Artificial intelligence (AI) is redrawing the boundaries of IT governance. Traditional frameworks built around predictability, transparency, and linear systems are ill-suited to AI and machine learning models’ dynamic, opaque, and constantly evolving nature. As organizations expand AI applications across critical sectors like healthcare, finance, and public services, the friction between innovation and oversight grows more pronounced. Without a reimagined governance strategy, these gaps can hind

Video Shows Tesla Robotaxi Safety Driver Giving Up, Climbing Into Driver's Seat

futurism.com Unknown 2025-12-07 03:05:57

Launched just two months ago in Austin, Tesla's Robotaxi service has been plagued with errors and safety issues — many of which have been caught on camera by passengers — from the very start. From freaking out at the sight of a child and getting stuck in infinite loops to reckless wheel-jerking and ominous calls advising passengers to exit the vehicle immediately, it would seem that "failure" is not a strong enough word to describe how poorly Tesla's not-so-driverless taxis are doing.

The latest Framework 16 modular laptop includes the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070

There's a refresh of the popular Framework Laptop 16 available for pre-order right now, and it's a doozy. The new model is heavy on high-grade specs, with the inclusion of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 GPU and AMD's Ryzen AI 300 Series processors. We loved the modular nature of the previous iteration, but said the internals were a bit underpowered for serious gamers. It looks like that's been handled here.

On a quiet patch of former farmland in northeastern Louisiana, a fleet of excavators has leveled more than 2,000 acres of reddish clay earth. This is rural Richland Parish, once a floodplain tangled with meandering bayous and wild canebrake where black bears still wander and a quarter of the 20,000 residents live below the poverty line.

Beyond GDPR security training: Turning regulation into opportunity

By Eirik Salmi, System Analyst at Passwork Even though 88% of businesses spend over €1 million on GDPR compliance and 40% invest up to €10 million, 80% of their employees still ignore basic password security practices. The formal risk is obvious: GDPR fines can reach up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover. The informal one is quieter but often far more damaging: lost trust, declining customer loyalty, and disrupted operations. In 2024, European regulators issued fines exceeding €1.2
