Big Tech Hits Pause: Inside the AI Adoption Strategy Reset
For a while, the AI race looked straightforward. Build bigger models. Add more data centres. Hire faster than everyone else. The companies that moved quickest would pull ahead. That story no longer holds. Across Big Tech, the tone has shifted. Some companies are slowing visible rollouts. Others are reshuffling teams or quietly narrowing scope. A few are…
Notification Bankruptcy: When Enterprises Choose Silence
Enterprises spent years building notification systems to keep teams informed. By late 2025, those same teams had silenced nearly everything. Slack channels went dark. Email alerts disappeared. Calendar reminders became the only interruption most professionals allowed. This was not poor change management. It was rejection at scale. If you manage IT infrastructure, security operations, or compliance…
Digital Fatigue is Pushing Technology to Help Users Disengage
Digital fatigue has changed how people experience technology in daily life. Most users still depend on apps, devices, and platforms, but fewer want them competing for attention every minute. Instead of feeling helpful, constant pings now feel intrusive. That discomfort has forced technology companies to rethink what responsible design looks like. Helping users step back…
Passkey Adoption Reality Check: Did Finance Really Switch?
By the end of 2024, passkeys were technically available across most major banking platforms. Mobile apps supported them. Web flows allowed them. Documentation explained them. Yet login behaviour barely moved. For financial institutions, this disconnect created a quiet operational problem. Fraud metrics did not improve. Support volumes did not fall. Passwords remained the default behaviour, even where…
AI Conferences 2026: Top 12 Global Events You Don’t Want to Miss
Last year, AI conferences changed their tone. The announcements kept coming, but the applause softened. In 2025, stages filled with post-mortems instead of promises. Leaders talked about what stalled, what scaled, and what quietly broke. Costs, governance, and deployment realities replaced breathless demos. It felt less like a victory lap and more like a working session. That’s why…
Planetary Geoscientist John Pereira II on Mapping the Moon’s Future
Space Visionaries: Minds Shaping Humanity’s Next Frontier As exploration stretches beyond Earth, this series highlights the scientists and thinkers applying planetary geoscience to humanity’s next phase of exploration. Space Visionaries focuses on the work happening at the intersection of Earth-based knowledge and off-world ambition — where geological insight, responsible resource planning, and long-term thinking shape…
CES 2026: New Tech Reveals Where Innovation is Heading Next
Every January, CES turns Las Vegas into a strange mix of crystal ball and stress test. Some ideas arrive fully formed. Others wobble under their own ambition. And a few make you pause and think, wait — this might actually change how people live. CES 2026 leaned heavily toward that last category. Across show floors spread through the city in…
Enterprise AI Agents Six Months Later: AI Agents Hype vs Reality
Most enterprises did not shut down their AI agents loudly. Teams simply stopped mentioning them in reviews. Dashboards still existed, but nobody checked them. Pilot Slack channels stayed quiet. That silence captures the current state of AI agents’ hype vs reality inside large organisations. This shift matters immediately for leaders making technology decisions. Agentic systems promised autonomy and scale….
AI Coding Assistants: Which Ones Developers Actually Pay For
Developers do not continue paying for tools that slow them down. Retention data reveals a clear divide between AI coding assistants that are perceived as essential and those that are considered optional. The difference rarely comes from novelty. It comes from workflow fit and long-term value. This analysis examines how teams behave after trial access…
Why Production Ready Software Fails or Scales?
A great demo can make any product feel ready. Deployment usually tells a different story. Recent research from Gartner predicts that over 40% of agentic AI projects will be cancelled by the end of 2027, largely because costs rise, business value remains unclear, or risk controls fail to mature. Many initiatives never move beyond proof-of-concept, despite early success. The issue is rarely…
