In early 2026, the AI community was briefly captivated by OpenClaw, an experimental agent framework that spread rapidly among researchers and developers. Though the project’s momentum slowed after its founder was reportedly acquired by OpenAI, its influence has continued to shape product development across the industry — most notably at Microsoft. Today, Microsoft announced Scout, a new AI assistant designed to bring agentic, adaptive workflows into the Microsoft 365 ecosystem. A Persistent, Personalized AI Agent Scout is described as an “always-on” assistant built on ideas from the OpenClaw framework. Unlike traditional copilots, it is designed to maintain a persistent identity,…
In 2025, electric vehicles reached a major global milestone: roughly one in four cars sold worldwide was electric. Yet in the United States, EVs account for closer to one in ten sales—and momentum appears to be slowing rather than accelerating. The contrast is sharp. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global EV sales surpassed 20 million units in 2025, growing by around 20% year-on-year. At the same time, falling battery costs—down roughly 8% on average due to cheaper raw materials and wider adoption of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) chemistry—have helped push prices lower in many markets. But the US…
If you’ve spent time on Instagram Reels or TikTok, you’ve probably seen the format where creators overlay their video on top of the content they’re reacting to. It’s become a staple style, especially since these reactions tend to perform well. X is now leaning into that trend with a new feature called “React with Video,” allowing users to record reaction videos directly inside the app. The idea is simple: instead of typing a reply, you can respond to a post with a recorded video of yourself reacting to it. The feature shows up in the Repost menu, and when selected,…
Reports this week indicate that Toyota/Lexus has halted development of the production version of the LF-ZC, which had been intended as a flagship electric sedan showcasing next-generation batteries, gigacasting-style manufacturing, and a new software architecture. What makes it sting is that the LF-ZC actually looked production-feasible. Unlike many wild concepts, it had: The cancellation appears to be part of a broader strategy shift rather than Lexus abandoning EVs altogether. Reports point to weaker-than-expected demand for luxury EV sedans, changing government incentives, and a greater focus on SUVs and more cost-effective EV programs. Lexus says it remains committed to battery-electric vehicles,…
ASUS has introduced a new generation of laptops for creators: ProArt P16 and ProArt P14, built around the new NVIDIA RTX Spark platform, an architecture that brings workstation-level performance to a portable form factor. The AI PC race has mostly been about squeezing more neural processing power into thinner laptops. Asus is taking a different route. Its latest ProArt P16 and ProArt P14 creator laptops are built around Nvidia’s new RTX Spark platform, a chip package that sounds like something you’d expect to find inside a workstation. And that’s exactly the point. The new ProArt machines are targeting creators, developers,…

Instagram has resolved a security issue that allowed several users’ accounts to get hacked. The attack appeared to rely on tricking Meta’s own AI-powered support chatbot into granting access to a victim’s account. Over the weekend, several users on Reddit claimed that their Instagram accounts had been compromised, and a number of users on X warned of similar account hijackings. The compromised accounts include the Instagram handle for the Obama-era White House, which appears to have been inactive since 2017; and the account of the U.S. Space Force’s chief master sergeant John Bentinvegna. Security researcher Jane Wong said her Instagram…
Sony has introduced a new display technology called True RGB, which aims to significantly improve image quality in premium TVs and create an alternative between OLED and Mini LED. This new Sony technology focuses on improving colors, brightness and real-world performance in everyday viewing environments, not just in ideal laboratory conditions. What is Sony True RGB? True RGB is a new TV backlight technology that uses separate red, green and blue (RGB) LEDs to create colors directly at the light source. Unlike Mini LED or QLED, which use a base light and color filters, True RGB creates colors more accurately…
