Were the White House’s Tariffs Calculations Done By AI?
The use of the trade deficit in tariff calculations is recommended by the leading generative AI.
How can science benefit from AI? Risks?
Researchers from chemistry, biology, and medicine are increasingly turning to AI models to develop new hypotheses. However, it is often unclear on which basis the algorithms come to their conclusions and to what extent they can be generalized. A publicationnow warns of misunderstandings in handling artificial intelligence. At the same time, it highlights the conditions under which researchers can most likely have confidence in the models.
Artificial intelligence has potential to aid physician decisions during virtual urgent care
Do physicians or artificial intelligence (AI) offer better treatment recommendations for patients examined through a virtual urgent care setting? A new study shows physicians and AI models have distinct strengths. The study compared initial AI treatment recommendations to final recommendations of physicians who had access to the AI recommendations but may or may not have reviewed them.
DDoS Attacks Now Key Weapons in Geopolitical Conflicts, NETSCOUT Warns
Hackers now use AI and botnets to launch powerful DDoS attacks, bypassing security and overwhelming servers as law enforcement struggles to keep up.
Trump’s Tariffs Hammer Big Tech as Apple, Meta, Amazon Shares Plunge
The 10% baseline tariff plus additional “reciprocal” levies on China, India, and Taiwan has undermined investor confidence in the U.S. tech giants.
Benchmarks Find ‘DeepSeek-V3-0324 Is More Vulnerable Than Qwen2.5-Max’
While the latest iteration of Qwen2.5-Max outperforms DeepSeek-V3 on security, the AI model lags behind its competition in several other areas.
Gartner: Gen AI is in the ‘Trough of Disillusionment,’ Yet Spending Expected to Increase Through 2028
According to a report from Gartner, spending on generative AI will rise to over $600 billion in 2025. However, some high-profile failures have shaken many consumers’ faith in the technology.

Microsoft Finally Expands Copilot+ AI Features to Intel and AMD-Powered PCs
Windows brings AI-powered creative tools to AMD and Intel PCs, including Cocreator in Paint and new Restyle Image and Image Creator features in Photos.
Multi-resistance in bacteria predicted by AI model
An AI model trained on large amounts of genetic data can predict whether bacteria will become antibiotic-resistant. The new study shows that antibiotic resistance is more easily transmitted between genetically similar bacteria and mainly occurs in wastewater treatment plants and inside the human body.
OpenAI Secures $40B in Historic Funding Round — But There’s a $10B Catch
OpenAI raises a record-breaking $40B at a $300B valuation, led by SoftBank, to fuel AGI research, expand infrastructure, and launch next-gen AI models.
