wired.com Graham Webster 2025-11-21 10:13:18

Alan Estevez was sitting at his dining room table wearing a t-shirt when Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo called on Zoom to ask if he wanted to be the Biden administration’s top export control official. “You’re going to have to sell me on this,” Estevez recalls telling her. It was 2021, and the outspoken New Jersey native thought he had finally left public service behind. After more than three decades at the Pentagon, he had left and taken a job in consulting.

The AI Industry Just Got Some Horrible News

For years now, big tech and its financial backers have been blowing past the warning signs that human-level AI — the theoretical technology with hundreds of billions of dollars riding on it — could turn out to be a pipe-dream, at best. Now, however, Wall Street appears to be yanking its money out of one of the largest datacenter providers in the game, possibly an early indicator that reality could be finally catching up to the massively hype-dependent AI industry.

AI Industry Warns That New Lawsuit Could Destroy It Entirely

futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-29 05:10:33

Last month, a federal judge ruled that potentially millions of writers can join a copyright infringement lawsuit brought against the AI startup Anthropic. The suit, filed by three authors, accused the Claude chatbot maker of using pirated books downloaded from "shadow libraries" such as LibGen to train its large language models. Upping the ante through the roof, US district judge William Alsup said that the trio's suit can represent every single writer of the some seven million books that Anthr

Honda just dealt a huge blow to the all-electric dream. In a stunning reversal, the Japanese auto giant has announced it is rethinking its electrification strategy, signaling that battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) are no longer the holy grail of its future. The move is a major setback for the EV industry, which is already reeling from the September 30 expiration of federal tax credits that made electric cars competitive with their gas-powered counterparts.

“We Miss All the Trains to Get Rich”: The Real Story of Crypto and the Black Community

I’ve been at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) Annual Convention in Cleveland since August 6. I came expecting to hear about the state of our industry under Donald Trump’s second presidency, especially how to navigate the administration’s anti-DEI policies, which many in the Black community see as a direct attack on progress. I thought the talk would be about AI: how to use it, how to control it, and whether it was a threat to our profession. I definitely did not expect to ta

This story originally appeared on Inside Climate News and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration. “We will drill, baby, drill,” President Donald Trump declared at his inauguration on January 20. Echoing the slogan that exemplified his energy policies during the campaign, he made his message clear: more oil and gas, lower prices, greater exports.

Microsoft backtracks on $80 The Outer Worlds 2 pricing

Xi Jinping warns against China's overinvestment in EVs and AI

But Xi appears to think that the strategy is flawed. As reported by the Financial Times , China's President sent out a pointed message about over-investment at the two-day Central Urban Work Conference in Beijing.
