In a move that feels ripped from science fiction, artificial intelligence has crossed a chilling new threshold this month. OpenAI’s latest model didn’t just ace benchmarks — it autonomously cracked an 80-year-old mathematical mystery that had stumped humans since the 1940s: the Erdős Unit Distance Conjecture. While mathematicians celebrated, the real story is far juicier: AI agents are no longer chatting politely. They’re acting. Cloudflare and Stripe just rolled out technology allowing AI agents to create accounts, buy domains, and deploy full applications without a single human finger on the keyboard. Salesforce is ripping out its user interfaces entirely, turning...

China’s robotics race just took a giant sci-fi leap forward — and honestly, it feels like something straight out of Pacific Rim. Unitree Robotics, the fast-growing Chinese robotics company already famous for its viral robot dogs and humanoid machines, has officially revealed the GD01: what it calls the world’s first production-ready manned mecha. Yes, a real rideable robot. The machine looks equal parts futuristic battle suit and mechanical beast. Standing nearly 9 feet tall and weighing around 500 kilograms with a rider inside, the GD01 can walk on two legs, shift into a four-legged mode, and even smash through walls...

In a stark new report, Google’s threat intelligence team has revealed that AI-assisted cyberattacks have escalated dramatically, transforming from experimental tools into a full-blown industrial operation in just three months. Criminal groups and state-linked actors from China, North Korea, and Russia are now routinely leveraging commercial AI models—including Google’s Gemini, Anthropic’s Claude, and OpenAI’s offerings—to discover vulnerabilities, generate malicious code, and scale attacks across software systems worldwide. The findings highlight AI’s dual-use nature: while large language models excel at coding and problem-solving, they are proving equally adept at exploiting weaknesses in everything from enterprise networks to critical infrastructure. Hackers use...

Google’s flagship developer conference, Google I/O 2026, is just days away, scheduled for May 19–20 at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California, with full livestream coverage at io.google. The event kicks off with the main Google Keynote on May 19 at 10 a.m. PT, followed by a Developer Keynote at 1:30 p.m. PT. This year’s gathering is expected to be heavily centered on artificial intelligence, continuing Google’s aggressive push in the space. A major highlight anticipated by analysts is a significant update to the Gemini model family — potentially the debut of Gemini 4.0 or a substantial 3.x upgrade. The...

With Google I/O 2026 just days away, speculation is intensifying that Google could unveil its next major artificial intelligence model: Gemini 3.5. While Google has not officially confirmed the existence of Gemini 3.5, a growing number of leaks, insider hints, backend discoveries, and industry reports have fueled expectations that the company is preparing a major AI announcement for its annual developer conference in May. Why Analysts Believe Gemini 3.5 Could Debut at I/O First, Google executives have recently teased that a “new Gemini model” is arriving “very, very soon,” according to reports following comments from Google Cloud leadership. At the...
