This is going to be a fun week. First, Elon Musk and Sam Altman square off in a California court over the origins of OpenAI (for more details, see here). The final outcome probably won’t have a huge impact on the ChatGPT company—Musk’s chances of both winning the case and getting everything he wants from a victory seem unlikely, as we wrote here. No matter what happens, though, the courtroom... Read more ›

Многие из нас идут на работу, полные энтузиазма, что ИИ сделает самую нудную и сложную часть работы. Claude, Cursor, Gemini и десятки агентов - обещают освободить нас от рутины и превратить обычный день в поток гениальных идей.

After nearly five decades, that decline has become critical. During a routine... Read more ›
