Winning capital for your AI startup? Kleida Martiro is leading the conversation at TechCrunch All Stage

AI-native startups are rewriting the rules of what early traction looks like — and too often, investors are still playing by the old ones. At TechCrunch All Stage, happening in Boston on July 15, Kleida Martiro, partner at Glasswing Ventures, will lead a breakout that cuts straight to the core of this disconnect. Her session, “Winning Capital in a Competitive Market: How to Fund Your AI-Native Startup,” on the Foundation Stage, explores how early stage AI founders can frame their growth story i

Assembly Theory of Time

If the lineages are followed back beyond the origin of life on Earth to the origin of the universe, it would be logical to assume that the memory of the universe was lower in the past, which means that the universe's ability to generate objects of high Assembly is limited by its size in time. Some objects are too large in time to come into existence in intervals that are smaller than their assembly index. For complex objects such as computers to exist in our universe, many other objects had to f

This Amex Card's New Welcome Offer Has Me Scratching My Head. Here's Why

CNET/Getty Images A welcome offer is usually one of the main reasons people apply for a new credit card. But what if the issuer didn't disclose the offer until after you applied? American Express recently changed the language for the terms on The Platinum Card® from American Express without specifying the exact number of points you'd be eligible to earn with its welcome offer. A credit card's welcome bonus -- a lump sum of rewards you can earn, typically for reaching a certain spending thresh

From MIT to low Earth orbit

Coleman sits in the rear seat of a supersonic T-38 jet for pilot training as a newly minted NASA astronaut candidate in 1992. “When a chemist gets to fly a T-38, she will always be smiling,” she says. NASA On the day of Sally Ride’s talk, I hurried into 10-250, the large lecture hall beneath the Great Dome that is the emblem of MIT. Sandy Yulke, the chair of the Association of MIT Alumnae, was already introducing Sally. Sally. Just a first name. As if she were one of us. I slid into an empty se

You’ve got one week to stock up on Philips Hue gear before a tariff-fueled price hike

We’d usually advise most shoppers to wait until Prime Day to get the best prices on tech, but smart home buyers in the US may want to consider stocking up in the next week. Philips Hue devices are already on the costly side, but it has now been confirmed that prices will increase from July 1. The unsurprising reason is the impact of US tariffs. After alluding to the price hike in a marketing email, Hue’s parent company, Signify, confirmed the increases in a statement to HueBlog. No further deta

Nvidia announces RTX 5050 laptop GPU, desktop version set to launch on July 1

Something to look forward to: Nvidia has officially announced the RTX 5050 mobile GPU for entry-level gaming laptops.

Philips Hue says US prices will go up in July because of tariffs

When Philips Hue’s US prices go up next month, you can officially know who to blame. (Hint: It rhymes with "rump.") Parent company Signify told Hueblog (via The Verge) that its price increases are "a direct result of tariffs." See how easy that was, Amazon? Before that confirmation, the company vaguely referred to an upcoming price increase. "Hurry, prices go up on July 1," marketing copy from earlier this month stated. Signify’s statement to Hueblog doesn’t mince words about Trump’s trade war

Chrome on Android is finally making a long-awaited UI change over a year after iOS

TL;DR A browser with its address bar at the bottom of the screen is a desirable layout for mobile devices. Chrome on iOS got this option back in 2023, but has so far lacked it on Android. Today, Google finally starts giving Android users the choice, as well. Smartphones may be pocket-sized computers, but there are a million and one good reasons why we wouldn’t want to use the same exact apps we do on our full-sized machines. Just the very fact that we’re interacting through a touchscreen mean

YouTube Music solves the offline lyrics problem that Apple Music and Spotify still haven’t

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR YouTube Music is rolling out support for offline lyrics. The feature lets users access lyrics for downloaded songs while offline. Reports suggest the feature is rolling out to YouTube Music on Android but is not yet available on iOS. YouTube Music rolled out a new lyrics sharing feature earlier this month, which lets users easily create shareable images featuring up to five lines from their favorite songs. But that isn’t the only new lyrics-related upgrad

Mom-Approved Best Pregnancy Pillows to Help You Sleep Better While Pregnant

Sleeping well during pregnancy is tough, and expectant mothers may experience sleep issues. I was pregnant during the summer and the only thing that seemed to help me, as my bump grew, was using pregnancy pillows. I tried many during my second and third trimesters, and they made a big difference. Cooling options and extra support helped ease the pressure on my back and hips, and I finally started sleeping better. While testing, I kept in mind that everyone’s needs vary when they're pregnant. Fr

Brace your wallet: The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 may be Samsung’s priciest foldables yet

Alex Walker-Todd / Android Authority TL;DR A retailer has published premature listings of the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7, revealing prices for Italy and the UK. The listings highlight a steep price increase for all Fold 7 models and a marginal hike for Flip 7 models. In addition, the listings include information about the new color options and storage configurations. As we draw closer to Samsung’s next Galaxy Unpacked event, fresh leaks about the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 seem to be popping

Sony Is Practically Giving Away 4.5-Star Rated Wired On-Ear Headphones for Under $10 to Clear Out Stock

Not every pair of headphones needs to have noise cancellation, touch controls, or a premium price tag to be worth your money. Sometimes, the best pair is the one that just gets the job done. That means they produce sound and they connect to your devices. It doesn’t have to get any more complicated than that. If you’re looking for that kind of everyday listening solution, the Sony ZX Series Wired On-Ear Headphones are worth buying, especially when you can get them at such a great price. Head to

Tesla’s robotaxi reality check

After years of grand promises about how robotaxis would change the way we buy and use our cars, Tesla finally launched its taxi service. In one small portion of one city. With only a few cars and a few riders. Plus safety monitors in the passenger seat. Caution is a good thing in this industry, but what does all this say about where Tesla’s self-driving efforts really stand? After that, The Verge’s Allison Johnson joins the show to dive deep on MVNOs. In the United States, the cell market is co

Here how the Nothing Phone 3’s new Glyph Matrix will work

The micro-LED cluster enables new features like custom animations, symbols, and reactive lighting while maintaining app-based notifications. Nothing says the design change allowed it to reclaim internal space and enhance the Phone 3’s visual identity with a smaller, circular layout. Nothing has revealed how its new Glyph Matrix system will work on the Not

Andreessen Horowitz Backs AI Startup Whose Motto Is ‘Cheat at Everything’

By now, it’s well established that one of AI’s biggest accomplishments is to help Americans cheat at life. Students are using it to cheat on their homework, teachers are using it to cheat at grading homework, sad and horny men are using it to cheat themselves out of having a girlfriend, actors are using it to cheat at ethnic accents, and some lawyers are even using it to cheat on legal filings. Given all the cheating that’s been happening, it just makes sense that a company would come along that

A Mysterious Website I Stumbled Upon

It's clear that the sport of football needs to change. And the $64,000 question, my friends, is simple: "how?" Something is terribly wrong. The writing's on the wall: youth participation in the sport is down, thanks in large part to their parents' concern for their health. In recent years, the NFL has something is terribly wrong. In response to numerous clinical studies regarding something is terribly wrong, the league has taken action — and something is terribly wrong. Oh no. Something is terr

Galaxy S26 Ultra, S26 Edge spotted: Is the ‘Plus’ model really going away?

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra and Galaxy S26 Edge have appeared in the IMEI database. The early listing of the Galaxy S26 Edge suggests a January launch for the phone. It also adds weight to rumors that Samsung may drop the Plus variant from next year’s flagship lineup. The first official signs of Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series have emerged, with the Galaxy S26 Edge and S26 Ultra appearing in the IMEI database. The listings, uncovered by SammyPolice, are an

Tempur-Pedic Promo Codes: Up to $500 Off

Life is hard, but you know what isn’t? Tempur-Pedic mattresses. This brand’s been around for a long while, which isn’t shocking given the high-quality materials that perform for those that need advanced pressure relief and support. If you’re someone who deals with regular aches and pains, this is a good place to start looking for a new mattress. For those that also want to avoid putting a strain on their budget, now’s a good time to look, as Tempur-Pedic is launching its summertime 4th of July s

Samsung’s summer Unpacked is officially on, starting at 10AM ET on Wednesday, July 9th.

The Director of ‘Jaws @ 50’ Explains Why It’s the Ultimate Chronicle of the Classic

Jaws officially turned 50 last week, and it’s easy to imagine that Steven Spielberg’s shark thriller—Hollywood’s first summer blockbuster—will be considered just as much of a classic in 50 more years. National Geographic’s annual “Sharkfest” programming marks the milestone with Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story, a new documentary from frequent Spielberg collaborator Laurent Bouzereau (Music by John Williams). As fans of cinema history well know, however, Jaws is already a well-documented f

Which Death Stranding 2 Edition Should You Buy?

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach will launch on June 26 exclusively for the PlayStation 5, but those who buy a special edition of the game will be able to access it early.

Backyard Coffee and Jazz in Kyoto

One of the things I read about while getting ready for our vacation in Japan were these famous tiny businesses: bars or izakayas with four seats, narrow little bookstores or record shops in people’s houses or the bottom floors of small buildings, hyper-specialized or themed bars owned by one passionate guy. (There’s one that’s chock-full of Star Wars memorabilia, for example.) We got to visit a couple of such places, and saw many more from the street. I’m planning to write a longer, more themat
