The jobs report that came out today held good news for many American workers. In May, employers added 172,000 jobs—stronger than projected job growth—and unemployment did not budge from 4.3%. The leisure and hospitality sector led much of that growth, adding 70,000 jobs, while industries like healthcare have also continued hiring in significant numbers. The last few months of job growth, in fact, have been stronger than any other three-month period in over two years. One group of workers, however, has continued to face hurdles, even as the job market has returned to a steady state. While about 120,000 workers…

The countdown is on for Apple’s devoted flock: Later this month, the tech giant will permanently close three stores in California, Connecticut, and Maryland. The Cupertino, California-based company confirmed the store closures back in April, blaming “the departure of several retailers and declining conditions” where they are located, as the company said in a statement to MacRumors. More recently, it updated the details for each of the affected stores, citing the same closure date for each of June 20. The affected stores are: California: Apple North County retail store at the Shops at North County, 272 E Via Rancho Parkway,…

Dr. Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin.Bettmann ArchiveFor most of the last century, drug discovery was a slow, physical process. You started with a theory about how a disease worked, designed hundreds or thousands of molecules to test your theory, watched them fail, adjusted, and tried again. Progress came unevenly and often at great cost.AI is changing that. Today, before a scientist ever picks up a pipette, much of the early work can happen with the help of computers.Some people have started calling this shift a “search engine for biology.” Instead of probing biology blindly, researchers can now navigate it and query…

It’s the first Friday of June (June 5, 2026), and that means it is once again National Donut Day in America (or National Doughnut Day, if you’re Krispy Kreme). Despite the urge to assume the unofficial holiday is just another modern-day marketing scheme by the donut industrial complex, National Donut Day’s origin actually goes back nearly 90 years. As Fast Company previously reported, the first National Donut Day was actually observed in 1938. Per SFGate, the Salvation Army declared the holiday that year to commemorate the volunteers who handed out donuts to frontline soldiers during World War I. Those volunteers,…

Nvidia and Apple are two powerhouses helping to define the future of AI.NurPhoto via Getty ImagesNvidia’s Role in the AI BoomNvidia has become the face of the AI revolution by doing what early winners always do: making the future tangible. It’s a familiar pattern. In the PC cycle, those were the silicon suppliers. In the Internet era, it was all about building infrastructure. But those cycles also reveal something more important—the companies that capture attention first are not always the ones that capture the most value.However, there is always nuance when leveraging technology in transitions. That nuance is in Apple…

There is a group of people inside your organization who are being asked to do more than perhaps anyone else right now, and they are doing it largely without adequate support, training, or acknowledgment of how much the job has changed. I’m talking about managers. Not the C-suite navigating strategy, and not the frontline employees absorbing the day-to-day weight of change. The middle layer. The people expected to translate executive vision, increase team productivity, spot early signs of employee burnout, and hold teams together, while quietly dealing with their own fears about what AI, economic pressure, and organizational uncertainty mean…

Tanmay Ratnaparkhe, Co-Founder, Predis.ai, which uses AI to help brands scale ads, ad videos, and social content without losing their voice.Here is the uncomfortable truth: The moment your marketing team uploads a style guide PDF to your AI platform and calls it “done,” you’ve lost a lot about what makes your brand unique.Generative AI has made content creation infinite. It has also made the brand voice generic, with 70% of consumers saying they can recognize an AI-generated ad because it feels like it is “missing its soul,” according to recent Canva research cited by MarTech. ​When every company feeds the…

In the days leading up to the 2026 State of the Union, George Santos was acting—at least in public—like a man preparing to take a victory lap. In October 2025, President Donald Trump had commuted the former Republican congressman’s 87-month federal prison sentence, which he’d received in April 2025 after pleading guilty to various forms of campaign funds-adjacent fraud. Four short months later, on X, Santos began teasing his triumphant return to the chamber from which he’d been expelled two years earlier. “I’m going to be there for the State of the Union, in the gallery, guys,” Santos said in…
