Norton VPN review: A VPN that fails to meet Norton’s standards
One thing I need to make clear right from the start: this is a review of Norton VPN (formerly Norton Secure VPN, and briefly Norton Ultra VPN) as a standalone app, not of the VPN feature in the Norton 360 package. They’re similar, but Norton VPN has a few more features, including the ability to…
Meet SmallThinker: A Family of Efficient Large Language Models LLMs Natively Trained for Local Deployment
The generative AI landscape is dominated by massive language models, often designed for the vast capacities of cloud data centers. These models, while powerful, make it difficult or impossible for everyday users to deploy advanced AI privately and efficiently on local devices like laptops, smartphones, or embedded systems. Instead of compressing cloud-scale models for the…
TSMC’s quarterly sales hit a record $30 billion — contract chipmaker plans over 15 new fabs to meet still-growing AI demand
TSMC on Thursday reported its strongest quarter ever, posting a revenue of $30 billion for the second quarter of 2025, citing strong demand for AI processors. The foundry expects demand for AI applications to grow in the coming years, so it is plotting a rather unprecedented expansion plan that involves building 15 new fabs over…
Meet the Corvette ZR1X: America’s 1,250-horsepower hybrid hypercar
Enough is never enough. Chevrolet has only just released the Corvette ZR1, which at 1,064 horsepower is the fastest, quickest and most outrageous production car ever to wear a bowtie on the hood. It can keep the neckwear, but its performance crown has already found a new home. Meet the new ZR1X, an even higher-performance…
Meet the companies racing to build quantum chips | TechCrunch
Quantum computing has long been announced as “just around the corner,” but several companies are now determined to make this a commercial reality, with the promise of solving complex problems beyond classical computers’ reach. The problems in question are wide-ranging, from medicine and cybersecurity to materials science and chemistry. But first, there are very practical…
Doctor Who ‘The Robot Revolution’ review: Meet Belinda Chandra
Spoilers for “The Robot Revolution.” The start of any season of Doctor Who is important, doubly so when there’s a new co-star to introduce. “The Robot Revolution” has to get us to fall in love with Belinda Chandra (Varada Sethu), ensnare new fans and keep existing ones hooked.

Meet Ponte Labor, a startup matching Hispanic immigrants to jobs using WhatsApp | TechCrunch
While working on their MBAs at Harvard Business School, Colombian immigrants Stephanie Murra and Lorenza Vélez noticed that most of the workers in the cafeteria were Hispanic. In conversations with them, a common theme kept coming up: how difficult it was for people who legally moved to the U.S. from Spanish-speaking countries to find their…
Meet PC-Agent: A Hierarchical Multi-Agent Collaboration Framework for Complex Task Automation on PC
Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities across various domains, propelling their evolution into multi-modal agents for human assistance. GUI automation agents for PCs face particularly daunting challenges compared to smartphone counterparts. PC environments present significantly more complex interactive elements with dense, diverse icons and widgets often lacking textual labels, leading to perception…
Meet AI Co-Scientist: A Multi-Agent System Powered by Gemini 2.0 for Accelerating Scientific Discovery
Biomedical researchers face a significant dilemma in their quest for scientific breakthroughs. The increasing complexity of biomedical topics demands deep, specialized expertise, while transformative insights often emerge at the intersection of diverse disciplines. This tension between depth and breadth creates substantial challenges for scientists navigating an exponentially growing volume of publications and specialized high-throughput technologies….
