WWDC 2025 felt like a course-correction. Last year’s tech event season left me cold — all the AI-powered tools supposedly for consumers that Microsoft, Google and finally Apple were peddling felt like a lot of hype without much real benefit. And that was before Apple fumbled the development of its more advanced Siri, showing off pre-recorded demos that weren’t close to ready. Google I/O last month was more of the... Read more ›

A couple weeks ago, I did something I try to do at least once a month: I went to the church I’m a member of in person instead of online. Growing up, church was a regular part of my life, and not just on Sundays. My father is a pastor, so it was common to […] Read more ›

President Donald Trump can’t stop using — and abusing — his legal authority to block the entry of noncitizens into the country. When he issued a travel ban on citizens of Muslim-majority countries early in his first term, he did so by invoking Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which allows him to […] Read more ›

In iOS 26 beta 1, Apple has seemingly tweaked the swipe-to-go-back gesture to make it easier to navigate screens on bigger iPhones. In iOS 18, many apps allow you to navigate back to the previous screen by swiping with your thumb from the left edge of the display. This is generally easier than tapping a back button in the top-left corner, especially if you're navigating with one hand. However, to... Read more ›

Instead of having your music suddenly blast through your car's... Read more ›

In March, at a Microsoft all-hands meeting, one of the company’s newest executives, Jay Parikh, laid out a rough vision for Microsoft’s path forward in artificial intelligence. AI models made by OpenAI and others were quickly becoming commoditized by more efficient models from DeepSeek and Microsoft’s own research arm that performed nearly as well for a fraction of the cost, Parikh said, sitting alongside chief executive officer Satya Nadella and...

Dozens of investment funds that bet on mature startups before the Federal Reserve hiked interest rates in early 2022 got creamed. Not Sands Capital, which began investing in public stocks 33 years ago but decided to get into startup investing in 2014. The reason: The firm’s biggest late-stage private tech fund paused making investments in new startups in August 2021, after its managers felt founders were seeking valuations that were... Read more ›

If all goes as planned in August, a startup called Starcloud from Redmond, Wash., will load a rocket bound for space with a refrigerator-sized satellite, the first to contain an Nvidia H100 chip. Normally, that chip is at the heart of the sprawling data centers back on Earth that run the latest artificial intelligence models. Compared to existing data centers, the Starcloud satellite will be almost comically under-powered: It may... Read more ›

Another year, another viral tweet argues against “learning to code.” The latest one comes with cherry-picked data implying that art history majors outperform computer scientists in labor markets. Yet the underlying data from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York prove the opposite. Art history grads have low unemployment—just 3%—because they are actually underemployed: 47% work in low-wage jobs that require no college degree and earn almost half the median... Read more ›

Today’s episode of America’s greatest reality series—yes, I’m talking about Elon Musk’s falling-out with President Donald Trump—was a barn burner. But rather than rehashing the gory details here (as extraordinary as their social media back-and-forth was, it was also entirely predictable), it’s more interesting to consider what this means for tech’s broader relationship with the Trump administration. I’m talking about the tech bros still in the White House—most obviously artificial... Read more ›

Agencies have long functioned as an intermediary between creators and advertisers. But they may start to get squeezed out, as major brands and creators try to build longer-term relationships with each other and take more creative risks. “Outsourcing” relationships between brands and creators will no longer fly, said Esi Eggleston Bracey, chief growth and marketing officer at Unilever, at The Information’s Future of Influence event on Tuesday.
