(Photo by Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for Live Nation)Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for Live NationI’m not sure I can think of two more disparate names in Hollywood than 24-year-old pop musician Billie Eilish and 71-year-old director James Cameron, but throw all their Grammys and Oscars in a pile, and they probably would not fit on a floating door. But now the two have combined for what is…
Judging by a slew of recent corporate announcements, your next “co-worker” might be an artificial intelligence agent—doing the work of an assistant, job scheduler, morning debriefer, learning coach and more. JPMorgan Chase, the largest U.S. bank, describes a clear vision for a new world of omnipresent AI agents: “Every employee will have their own personalized AI assistant; every process is powered by AI agents, and every client experience has an AI concierge.” In brick-and-mortar retail, Walmart is already implementing its vision around agents, which involves support of customers, in-store employees and other business areas, with supervisor agents assigning tasks to…

Outside of Alaska, these two Rocky Mountain parks have the highest concentration of grizzly bears out of any other National Park Service (NPS) site.On May 6, Glacier National Park reported its first fatal bear attack in 28 years. Just two days earlier, a grizzly bear attacked two hikers 400 miles away in Yellowstone. The attacks struck a chord with me. Growing up in Alaska, only to wind up in Montana, I’m no stranger to grizzly bears. Glacier…
My 2020 M1 MacBook Air still runs well, but conserving hard drive space as years of files, media, and software accumulate is a continual challenge. So I was miffed when I read security researcher Alexander Hanff’s May 4 report that Google Chrome has been automatically downloading an over-4GB AI model called Gemini Nano onto everyone’s computer, without asking for consent or providing notification. Chrome is not my main browser (I’m a Firefox diehard), and Gemini is not my main AI (that would be Claude). I’m paying a hefty hard-drive tax for something I don’t use.

I argue dogs should be allowed to run free, as being tethered to a canine while hiking holds us both back. I want my hands to be free and to move fast. And the dog just wants to, well, be a dog. The forest is an olfactory cornucopia. Be free, you wild and delightful beasts!But I do get that my 75-pound New Mexican Shepherd purebred is not everybody’s thing, especially when he’s in absolute sensorial rapture, blissfully sprinting to greet every stranger…
