Google’s Gemini Steals a March on OpenAI

When invading a hostile territory or testing a new AI service, it’s best to move quietly and steal a march on your opponents. Google appears to have learned that lesson. It’s now possible, if you’ve got its latest Pixel or Samsung phones, to ask the Gemini app to order an Uber or a meal on DoorDash. I tried it today and it worked flawlessly, if slowly. (I ordered paper towels via DoorDash, and once Gemini had arranged the transaction, it sent me to DoorDash to click the order button).OpenAI’s ChatGPT can’t.

Weekly deals: iPhone Air and iPhone 17 get price cuts, Galaxy S26 and Pixel 10/10 Pro on sale too

The Apple iPhone Air wasn’t the first super-slim phone, but it was the phone that started the craze, anyway – Apple has that effect on the market. Right now, the phone is up to €480 off. That gets you a 6.5” LTPO display (120Hz) and the powerful Apple A19 Pro chipset. The 3,149mAh battery is oh-so-small, but it still achieved a decent 12:44h Active Use Score – and there’s a...

Lean Relay Baton: методология для кросс-функциональных команд, где участником может быть AI-агент

Поискал облегченных методологий разработки, да и чтобы с возможностью включения агентов в процессы и не нашел.В этой статье я пробую сформулировать облегчённую методологию разработки для кросс-функциональных команд. Центральная идея — явный handover: задача не переходит молча, каждая передача — это осознанное действие с контекстом. По идее, методология должна одинаково работать, когда в команде 3 человека, 15 человек, или когда один или несколько из «участников» — AI-агенты. Это концепт, идея, черновик,... Read more

Гибридные цифровые двойники: почему производство обогнало проектирование

Автор: Александр Никулин, архитектор цифровых двойников ГК "ПЛМ Урал"Статья посвящена анализу причин отставания проектирования от производства во внедрении гибридных цифровых двойников (ГЦД). Приведена реализация ГЦД электродвигателя на единой платформе. Отмечено, что ключевым барьером является отсутствие нормативной базы и экономических стимулов для использования ГЦД как доказательной базы при сертификации.

Выдуманный мир тёплых (до)ламповых технологий – это не обязательно «стимпанк». Можно заглянуть и глубже, в «клокворкпанк», ведь спиральная пружина – двигатель более древний и при этом более компактный, чем паровая машина. Она широко используется с середины XVII века: именно благодаря металлической спирали часы стали карманными. Часовая пружина крутила шестерёнки заводных игрушек, музыкальных шкатулок, граммофонов и много чего ещё, зачастую совершенно шедеврального a la лесковская блоха. Послужила она и наук Read more

Atlassian and HubSpot Join Shift From AI Flat Fees

Dozens of enterprise software firms have shifted away from charging customers flat, per-user subscription fees as AI threatens their seat-based pricing model. By the end of 2025, 79 of the 500 software companies tracked by former OpenView partner Kyle Poyar, including HubSpot, Adobe and Salesforce, had begun charging customers additional fees based on how much AI they’re using. That’s more than double the figure in 2024. Read more
