Quantum computers have the ability to solve some extremely tough problems that are virtually impossible for regular computers to crack. There is one catch: those incredibly sensitive quantum bits known as qubits can be thrown out of sync by the smallest disturbance, forcing researchers to spend an eternity modifying hardware and correcting errors on the fly. That has all changed with NVIDIA’s recent announcement, which includes a set of open AI models that anybody may download and adapt.
Everyone has paused in front of a smartphone camera, almost reflexively, and wondered how to position their hands or feet. Suddenly, the shoulders seem rigid, the grin feels forced, and the end product is just another forgettable photo in your phone’s camera roll. Huawei developed a handy tool for the Pura 90 phone series, set for release on April 20, that comes in just at that moment and not only nudges you in the right direction, but also provides suggestions on how to stand, tilt, or turn for a nicer shot.
Boston Dynamics’ Spot, a four-legged machine that has been making its way through factories, warehouses, and power plants on its own for years, can now connect to the Orbit platform and the AIVI-Learning tool. This Google Gemini-powered program uses the photos to provide reports on safety, equipment health, and cleanliness. The system has done well with easy tasks, but when scenarios become cluttered, things become a little hazy.
Mark Zuckerberg is pushing for his staff to communicate with him directly via a highly realistic digital copy of himself. Meta is developing an AI avatar that looks and sounds exactly like him, using a treasure trove of his images, voice recordings, personal habits, and even public remarks. One day, employees across the company’s massive workforce of over 79,000 people will be able to fire off queries, receive responses, and hear words of advice from the founder that sound exactly like the real thing.
Landmines and unexploded shells transform tracts of terrain into silent time bombs, slowing armies and claiming lives long after the conflict has ended. The British have begun employing small drones to undertake reconnaissance work for them first, allowing the computer to identify the threats so that soldiers can stay back and complete the job more quickly.
Software is being rolled out to Samsung Galaxy XR devices beginning April 7th, and one of the new features is an experimental setting that adds a new dimension to 2D material inside the headset. Auto Spatialization handles the translation from 2D to 3D so you don’t have to edit a single web page’s code or modify any apps, allowing you to continue watching YouTube or browsing the web while seeing the sites come to life in 3D with layers that provide a sense of depth and space.
RagnaPop just released an AI-generated theme song for a show that never existed: Nintendo Family Matters, a sitcom that replaces the Winslow family with a crazy mix of iconic gaming characters all living under one roof. The soundtrack begins with a tune that sounds like it could have come directly from an early 1990s television show.
Robots equipped with Generalist AI’s new GEN-1 model have evolved into the ultimate automation workhorses, capable of completing the same simple tasks repeatedly without fail. You can witness in real time as one arm folds shirts row after row, carefully placing each one neatly into a basket, while another robot services robotic vacuums.
Video making has long required breaking the bank or devoting hours to learning complex software. Google Vids eliminates all of those hassles at once. If you already have a Google account, you can create, edit, and share videos right from your browser, no downloads or subscriptions required.
Riders in one European capital will soon be able to summon a self-driving car and pay for it using a familiar app. Uber is collaborating with Pony.ai, a Chinese autonomous car technology startup, and Verne, a Croatian company familiar with the local scene. On March 26, 2026, the three firms revealed their plans, and they’ve decided to kick things off in Zagreb.
