Inspired by his grandparents, who were apple farmers in China, Charlie Wu got the idea to apply technology to agriculture while studying computer science at Cornell University, a top agriculture school. “I got to meet fruit professors who are the best in the world at what they do,” Wu told TechCrunch. “Through talking to them, I realized even the largest farms in the nation basically have no idea what is actually growing out in their fields.” He dropped out of Cornell, became a Thiel fellow, a

I Had ChatGPT Order Me a Pizza. This Could Change Everything

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-19 04:52:03

Ordering a pizza online is wildly more interesting when AI does it. When OpenAI announced ChatGPT Agent, an AI-powered tool that handles complex tasks from start to finish, I didn't fully understand its capabilities. OpenAI says it can be your personal assistant, but that means little to someone who's never had one. I imagine if I did have a personal assistant, I might ask them to order me a pizza. So, that's what I did. Near CNET's New York office is a relatively new spot named Cello's Pizzer

Venezuela’s president thinks American spies can’t hack Huawei phones

During a press conference on Monday, Venezuela’s president, Nicolás Maduro, showed off a Huawei smartphone that China’s President Xi Jinping gifted him, calling it “the best phone in the world,” and making a bold claim. “The Americans can’t hack it, neither their spy planes, nor their satellites,” Maduro said. The phone looked like a Mate X6, a foldable phone released by Huawei in 2024. Obviously, nothing is impossible to hack, and even less so by U.S. government hackers, who are considered s
