It is abundantly clear now that we have one of the biggest cinematic success stories of 2026 in the form of Obsession, the highly scored horror film among both critics and audiences that is about to hit two extremely impressive milestones.The key here is “word of mouth.” Obsession already did well its opening weekend, putting up $17 million domestically, arriving in third place behind only blockbusters like Michael and The Devil Wears Prada 2. But after that? Obsession immediately started winning the box office every weekday, and now, that leads into this weekend.Obsession appears to be on the verge of…
The old adage goes that during a boom, the companies that profit most are the ones selling the picks and shovels. This January, even as consensus had largely settled around the idea that an AI bubble exists, something even Sam Altman acknowledged last August, Blackstone called investing in the “picks and shovels” of AI a “generational” opportunity. The safer bet, we’re told, lies not in the models themselves but in AI’s physical infrastructure: data centers, chips, and electricity. “The Real AI Talent War Is for Plumbers and Electricians,” declared a January headline in Wired. Of the major players in artificial…

Sharks like the frilled shark (Chlamydoselachus anguineus), that look less like an animal and more like a fossil that had accidentally wandered into the modern world with its eel-like body and rows of needle-like teeth that sit exposed in a permanent grin. Those do not look like the…
Want more housing market stories from Lance Lambert’s ResiClub in your inbox? Subscribe to the ResiClub newsletter. Many of the softest housing markets, where homebuyers have gained the most leverage over the past four years since the pandemic housing boom ended, are located in Southern and Mountain West regions. Many of those areas were home to the nation’s top pandemic boomtowns, which experienced significant home price growth during the pandemic housing boom, stretching housing prices beyond local income levels. Once pandemic-fueled domestic migration slowed and mortgage rates spiked, markets like Punta Gorda, Florida, and Austin faced challenges as they had…
The Miura and Temerario define the beginning and current destination of Lamborghini’s supercar production.LamborghiniOne brand defined the modern supercar: Lamborghini. This isn’t to say that the cars Ferrari and even Jaguar were making at the time weren’t brilliant too. But the Lamborghini Miura introduced the DNA of the supercar that persists to this day: mid-engined and the most bonkers, racing grade performance available at the time. In the era of the EV, however, should supercars be going all electric? I asked Lamborghini CEO and President, Stephan Winkelmann, and drove a Miura plus the company’s latest Temerario to understand the evolution.Lamborghini’s…
If you want to succeed at work, you not only need to get work done, you need to do the right kind of work. That work involves helping to complete projects that really matter to your organization—ones that are central to the mission. You don’t get assigned to those key projects right away. They tend to be run by leaders with significant experience and are staffed by others who have proven their capabilities and have demonstrated how they will contribute to a positive outcome. How do you become one of those go-to individuals? Carry a lot of water If you’re…
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways Stablecoin checkout reduces payment friction, but trust gaps still kill conversions and customer confidence. Clear identity, refund policies and support matter more than faster blockchain payment rails. Stablecoin adoption succeeds when businesses prioritize transparency, security and operational credibility before integration. Founders love the idea of instant cross-border settlement and zero chargebacks. The appeal is obvious. You integrate a new payment API, bypass traditional banking fees and open your business to a global audience. But there is a fundamental misunderstanding about what actually stops a user from completing a purchase. It…
We must overcome the imbalance that occurs when AI is initially trained, especially when it comes to the AI providing mental health guidance.gettyIn today’s column, I examine a crucial weakness in most of the contemporary generative AI and large language models (LLMs) concerning the data and knowledge they are being trained on, especially in the mental health domain. Here’s the deal. AI makers opt to scan vast portions of the Internet when initially training their AI. The odds are that the data and knowledge being scanned are going to be lopsided. There will be some aspects that are very frequent…
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Many entrepreneurs experience a moment when their company reaches peak value. The challenge is that the moment rarely lasts long, and most founders don’t recognize it while they’re still inside it.Many founders assume value builds in a straight line. You grow revenue, scale operations and eventually sell at the top. It sounds rational, but that belief causes many entrepreneurs to hold on too long. Timing drives a significant portion of enterprise value, and timing is influenced just as much by market conditions as by execution.I’ve experienced both sides of this. I’ve exited…
Recently, a senior executive shared something that initially sounded surprising. “I find it easier to open up to AI than to a person.” She was referring to an AI coaching platform her company had introduced. The tool prompted reflective questions, helped her think through challenges, and generated suggestions based on patterns in her responses. She appreciated the privacy and the absence of judgment. “There’s no pressure,” she explained. “The system just helps me think.” Her reaction isn’t unusual. As artificial intelligence tools become more sophisticated, many organizations are experimenting with AI-powered coaching platforms. These systems promise scale, consistency, and immediate…
