Fed Boss Concerned About AI's Effect on Job Market

futurism.com Unknown 2025-10-09 02:00:47

One of the key questions swirling around economics circles is the effect artificial intelligence will have — or perhaps is already having — on the job market. While most tales of "AI automation" are anecdotal at best, preliminary data appears to show at least some level of job market disruption for young workers in fields vulnerable to the current capabilities of AI software. Whether or not AI is actually taking those jobs is another question. Real-world performance of the software remains dre

Air Traffic Controllers Still Struggling to Communicate With Pilots: Report

Throughout much of this year, a slew of technical problems at Newark International Airport have spurred concerns about flier safety. On a frightening day in April, the airport lost communication with regional planes for about 90 seconds. Not long afterward, United Airlines announced it was cancelling dozens of flights out of the airport. That same month, the FAA committed to sending new equipment and resources to the site, but not long afterward, Trump’s transportation secretary, Sean Duffy, adm

Linking to text fragments with a bookmarklet One of my favourite features added to web browsers in the last few years is text fragments.

I Love Hallmark Movies, but This New Netflix Flick Shakes Up the Rom-Com Formula

You could argue that the newly released Miranda Cosgrove romance movie, The Wrong Paris, which arrived on Netflix last week, could have been a Hallmark movie. As someone who covers a lot of streaming and television content, I've watched at least 100 Hallmark movies over the course of my career, and the plot of The Wrong Paris, at least on paper, is the perfect Hallmark film. In it, a broke artist named Dawn (Cosgrove) applies to a dating show, thinking it takes place in Paris, France, but to he

Unprecedented ‘Einstein Cross’ Reveals Fifth Ghost Image and a Dark Matter Surprise

When gravity—an invisible yet ubiquitous force—bends and distorts light from distant galaxies, Earthbound observers get a rare glimpse of elusive cosmic phenomena. And the weirder the glitch, the more insightful the finding, as a team of astronomers recently discovered. These glitches are formally referred to as Einstein Crosses. As light from a distant galaxy travels toward our observatories, the gravitational force of galaxies closer to us bends that light, creating an image of four bright do
