Your savings will grow faster in this account. Kristina Kokhanova/Getty Images Until recently, reviewing the interest earned on my savings account was a snoozefest. If I was lucky, my balance increased a whole cent or two each month. Interest rates -- like temperatures -- are high right now. You just need to look in the right place. Instead of the meager annual percentage yield I'm getting with my current savings account, I can net up to 4.5% APY with one of today's top CDs. That means my inte

AMD's CDNA 4 Architecture Announcement

CDNA 4 is AMD’s latest compute oriented GPU architecture, and represents a modest update over CDNA 3. CDNA 4’s focus is primarily on boosting AMD’s matrix multiplication performance with lower precision data types. Those operations are important for machine learning workloads, which can often maintain acceptable accuracy with very low precision types. At the same time, CDNA 4 seeks to maintain AMD’s lead in more widely applicable vector operations. To do so, CDNA 4 largely uses the same system

Image by Getty / Futurism Rx/Medicines Broken ice cream machines aren't the only thing bedeviling stalwart fast food chain McDonald's. Financial services firm Redburn Atlantic put the company's stock in the bear category, coinciding with a slumpy week in which it lost about three percent of its value — because analysts are betting that GLP-1 agonist weight loss drugs like Ozempic are going to disrupt the fast food business model, CBS News reports.

Despite ChatGPT's well-documented issues, people are using it to advise them on relationship issues — and it's going about as well as you'd expect. In a new editorial, Vice advice columnist Sammi Caramela said she had been blissfully unaware of the ChatGPT-as-therapist trend until someone wrote into her work email about it earlier this year. Back in February, an unnamed man told the writer that his girlfriend refused to stop using the chatbot for dating advice and would even bring up things it

Key takeaways You can earn up to 4.65% APY with today's best CDs. APYs haven't shifted much in recent days, but they won't stay high forever. By opening a CD now, you can protect your earnings from expected Fed rate cuts. Sometimes, no news is good news.
