OpenAI has just added a powerful new capability to its “deep research” feature in ChatGPT: a GitHub connector that allows users to analyze codebases directly from the platform. Announced Thursday, this marks the first official “connector” for ChatGPT’s deep research tool, which was originally designed to comb the web and other sources to compile detailed […]
As artificial intelligence continues to reshape industries, tech leaders seem divided on how humans will fit into the workforce of the future. On one side are those who believe AI will replace nearly every job—except perhaps their own. (Venture capitalist Marc Andreessen, for instance, appears convinced that his role as an investor is immune to […]
With healthcare systems stretched thin by long waiting times and rising costs, more people are turning to AI-powered chatbots like ChatGPT for medical advice.

In what it claims as a global first, Il Foglio recently completed a month-long trial featuring […]
The Real Challenge in Scaling AI? It’s Not What You Think AI adoption is accelerating—but scaling it remains a different game entirely. While many businesses focus on flashy prototypes or overbuilt architectures, the real challenge lies in balancing complexity, cost, and speed. The result? Tech leaders end up with projects that spiral in scope, drain […]
Weeks after the launch of Gemini 2.5 Pro—Google’s most advanced AI model to date—the company released a technical report on its internal safety evaluations. But according to experts, the report offers limited detail, leaving key questions about potential risks unanswered. Technical reports are typically seen as vital tools for transparency, offering insights—both positive and critical—about […]
A recent incident involving the AI-powered code editor Cursor has reignited concerns about the reliability of artificial intelligence in customer support roles. On Monday, a developer noticed that switching between devices while using Cursor would unexpectedly log them out—a frustrating issue for programmers who rely on seamless multi-device workflows. Seeking answers, the user contacted support […]
OpenAI’s latest AI models, o3 and o4-mini, are designed to be top-tier reasoning engines—but they come with a significant drawback: they hallucinate more frequently than several of the company’s earlier models. Hallucinations, where AI generates false or fabricated information, remain one of the most persistent challenges in the field. While previous models have generally shown […]
