If it weren't for Amazon, it's entirely possible that instead of calling out to Alexa to change the music on our speakers, we might have been calling out to Evi instead. That's because the tech we know today as Amazon's smart assistant started out life with the name of Evi (pronounced ee-vee), as named by its original developer, William Tunstall-Pedoe. The British entrepreneur and computer scientist was experimenting with artificial intelligence before most of us had even heard of it. Inspired

After a brief court dispute, 23andMe and all its assets are up for auction once again. The second time around, former CEO Amy Wojcicki has started out hot with an opening bid nearly $50 million higher than the previous auction’s winner. Last month, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals purchased the bankrupt 23andMe for $256 million, beating out Wojcicki’s nonprofit, TTAM Research Institute’s opening bid by over $100 million. However, Wojcicki quickly requested that a U.S. judge reopen the auction. In her

The social media company will buy all the “clean energy attributes” of Constellation Energy’s Clinton Clean Energy Center, a 1.1 gigawatt nuclear power plant in central Illinois, starting in June 2027. Electricity will still flow to the local grid, so Meta’s purchase won’t directly power one of its data centers, though the company does have one about two hours nort
