You’ve likely heard of vibe coding and very well may have conducted an experiment or two yourself, enlisting Claude or some other AI tool to create a simple website or an interactive game. OpenAI cofounder Andrej Karpathy coined the phrase with a tweet in February 2025. In its simplest terms, vibe coding involves telling an AI program what you want to accomplish and having the AI create the code. It uses natural language provided by the user to generate the software. Vibe coding is a truly revolutionary democratizer of software development. It allows anyone with a computer and a little imagination to come…
“What brand am I wearing?” Sydney Sweeney says, looking into the camera as the shutter snaps, revealing a rotation of summery denim looks. The mood suddenly calms, her eyes close, she takes a deep breath, seagulls call in the background. “Yeah, that one,” she says with a giggle. The ad marks the return of one of the most notorious brand partnerships in recent memory, as American Eagle launches a new campaign to hype its denim shorts called “Syd for Short.” It’s a perfectly pleasant, perfectly innocuous piece of brand work meant to conjure the free-spiritedness of summertime (and, you know,…

Based on our analysis of the Zillow Home Value Index, U.S. home prices are up just +0.8% year-over-year between March 2025 and March 2026.

Like many, I’ve never met a chatbot I trust completely. Not only do they have a propensity to hallucinate by making up facts, but you can never be sure what their parent companies do with the information you provide. Most AI companies say they use your data to further train their models, but anonymize it first. However, you just have to take them at their word on this. Still, chatbots can be useful for summarizing and explaining complicated information, such as the kind contained in many bank statements, medical reports, and mortgage contracts. So if you do choose to upload…

Going on trail runs when pollen, the culprit behind most people’s allergies, is everywhere. I almost always regret leaving my house. I’m not alone; more than one in four Americans have seasonal allergies, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels due to climate change have lengthened the allergy season by about three weeks between 1990 and 2018, according to a 2021 study.

It must have seemed like a slam dunk PR opportunity for all concerned: A “DoorDash Grandma” making a (staged) delivery to the White House, affording President Trump a chance to tout his “No Tax on Tips” policy, and DoorDash a prompt to praise that policy for letting “workers keep more of what they earn, including hundreds of millions of dollars for Dashers.” As press looked on and cameras rolled, Sharon Simmons, sporting a “DoorDash Grandma” T-shirt and handing a couple of McDonald’s bags to Trump, praised the policy for saving her thousands of dollars on taxes, which she says she’s…
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways People do not learn culture by reading about it. They learn it by watching the person at the top of the metaphorical food chain. If you want a culture where people take ownership, you as the leader have to be seen taking ownership, especially in low-stakes situations where nobody expects you to. If you want a culture of accountability, you have to admit your own wrongdoings in front of your team. I want to tell you about a chair.A few months ago, before a company event, I walked into the…

Aligning finance and commercial teams ensures pricing reflects market realities and profitability. Shared data and early finance input help prevent margin erosion and mispriced deals.

According to Anthropic, the new tool “lets you collaborate with Claude to create polished visual work like designs, prototypes, slides, one-pagers, and more.” The company is billing the tool as a way for non-designers to mock up visuals, and a way for designers to quickly test out a range of initial prototypes.
