AI drives job growth while reshaping risks - 50% of employers plan AI transformation by 2030, as digital threats climb in 10-year risk forecasts.

In 2025, the AI landscape is undergoing a transformative shift, expanding into two critical new layers: the application layer and the data infrastructure layer.

The result was Athenic AI, a company that uses AI to run data analytics for enterprises across all of their data sources. Zhao, the founder and CEO, said that Athenic’s products are designed to be a central nervous system of an organization’s databases that can be used by anyone in the company regardless of their coding or data experience.

Quantum computing has been on the horizon for what feels like decades. But with the explosion of artificial intelligence (AI) over the past year or so, the quantum computing future could be upon us. In 2025, there are several stocks that could benefit. Some are big tech businesses; others are specialty start-ups focused on a particular niche.

Voice deepfakes are making it increasingly hard to figure out if there’s a real person or a bot on the other end of the line.

David J. Ball and Alexandria Moriarty of Bracewell LLP discuss the use of generative AI in legal evidence, such as expert declarations, and the moves within the legal profession to develop rules on its use to ensure accuracy and reliability.

Chinese startup DeepSeek has been taking the AI industry by storm with a new chatbot rivaling ChatGPT and Gemini that uses a fraction of the power, time, and money to train and operate.

AI-powered data analysis tools have the potential to significantly improve the quality of scientific publications. A new study by Professor Mathias Christmann, a chemistry professor at Freie Universität Berlin,

By analyzing almost 10,000 pregnancies, researchers discovered previously unidentified combinations of risk factors linked to serious negative pregnancy outcomes, finding that there may be up to a tenfold difference in risk for infants who are currently treated identically under clinical guidelines.

This AI-driven approach goes beyond traditional voice analysis methods by detecting nuanced vocal characteristics imperceptible to the human ear. The machine learning models use complex algorithms to analyze numerical embeddings of audio segments, creating a more sophisticated assessment of a speaker's mental state.

Weeks after Japan revealed details of a landmark energy plan partly designed to keep up with an expected AI surge, the shock rise of Chinese startup DeepSeek has upended conventional wisdom over the sector's future power demands.

NOAA satellites paired with AI data analysis also generate alerts but over a wider area. They can detect heat signatures, map fire perimeters and burned areas, and track smoke and pollutants to assess air quality and health risks.
