Here’s how we picked this year’s Innovators Under 35

We’ll also soon reveal our 2025 Innovator of the Year, whose technical prowess is helping physicians diagnose and treat critically ill patients more quickly. What’s more (here’s your final hint), our winner even set a world record as a result of this work. MIT Technology Review first published a list of Innovators Under 35 in 1999. It’s a grand tradition for us, and we often follow the work of various featured innovators for years, even decades, after they appear on the list. So before the big

Appeals court says NLRB structure unconstitutional, in a win for SpaceX

A federal appeals court handed SpaceX a win on Tuesday, in a ruling that prevents the National Labor Relations Board from prosecuting unfair labor practices against the company.

Each time we use them, we bet that the time saved will outweigh the ri

It’s “frighteningly likely” many US courts will overlook AI errors, expert says

Order in the court! Order in the court! Judges are facing outcry over a suspected AI-generated order in a court. Fueling nightmares that AI may soon decide legal battles, a Georgia court of appeals judge, Jeff Watkins, explained why a three-judge panel vacated an order last month that appears to be the first known ruling in which a judge sided with someone seemingly relying on fake AI-generated case citations to win a legal fight. Now, experts are warning that judges overlooking AI hallucinati
