How the US left Ukraine exposed to Russia's winter war Will Europe use frozen Russian assets to fund war? How can Ukraine rebuild China ties? The United States, which stopped providing military and financial assistance to Ukraine under President Donald Trump, has asked for Kyiv's assistance in protecting its bases from Iranian retaliatory strikes in the Gulf. Ukraine's head of the Center for Countering Disinformation, Andriy Kovalenko, made the request public on March 6. On March 9, Zelenskyy also dispatched chief negotiator Rustem Umerov to sell Ukrainian interceptor drones to Gulf states.

Amazon is replacing its $2.99 ad-free Prime Video add-on with'Prime Video Ultra' at $4.99 monthly, representing a 66% price increase for ad-free viewing. PCWorld reports that 4K streaming will become exclusive to Ultra subscribers starting April 10, 2025, while standard Prime members lose 4K but gain Dolby Vision support. The Ultra plan includes five concurrent 4K streams and 100 offline downloads, significantly raising costs for users wanting premium streaming features. It's been a little more than two years since Amazon started charging extra for ad-free Prime Video streaming, and now that we've gotten used to the extra fee, it's time for a price hike. Amazon just announced that its $2.99-a-month add-on for removing ads from Prime Video is morphing into a new plan called Prime Video Ultra, which will set you back $4.99 a month. That's a 66-percent price hike for monthly subscribers who formerly opted for the cheaper ad-free add-on. An annual subscription for Prime Video Ultra costs $45.99, a 23-percent discount compared to the new plan's monthly rate. Slated to arrive April 10, Prime Video Ultra will come with a few added benefits besides stripping away most ads (live sports and other programming will still have commercial breaks), including up to five concurrent 4K streams (up from the original limit of three) and up to 100 offline downloads (up from 25). At the same time, standard Prime members (who get Prime Video with ads included in their subscriptions, which cost $14.99 a month or $139 a year) will see some changes too, including added support for Dolby Vision HDR, an additional concurrent video stream (for a total of 4) and double the amount of offline downloads compared to the former 25-download limit.

PCWorld reports that Microsoft's Automatic Super Resolution (AutoSR) technology is coming to Xbox Ally X handheld consoles to enhance gaming performance. AutoSR uses AI-powered upscaling to render games at lower resolutions then upscales them, allowing less powerful GPUs to achieve higher frame rates. A public preview of AutoSR for the AMD-powered Ally X is expected in April, promising smoother gameplay experiences for users. In a month, owners of Xbox Ally X handheld consoles will see their frame rates jump upwards, as Microsoft begins supporting the Automatic Super Resolution (AutoSR) tech on the console. Microsoft snuck in a reference to the technology as part of a presentation at the Game Developer Conference, where the company pitched features from its upcoming Project Helix console as well as AI enhancements coming to Microsoft's DirectX API . Essentially, AutoSR is an upscaling technology, originally designed for use with the Qualcomm Snapdragon X1 or X2 Elite processor, according to Microsoft.

This month we tackle the topic of young people and what AI tools mean for their future. Joining the conversation this time are: Sanmay Das (Virginia Tech), Tom Dietterich (Oregon State University), Sabine Hauert (University of Bristol), Michael Littman (Brown University), and Ella Scallan (AIhub). As AI tools have become ubiquitous, we've seen growing concern and increasing coverage about how the use of such tools from a formative age might affect children. What do you think the impact will be and what skills might young people need to navigate this AI world? I met up with a bunch of high school friends when I was last in Switzerland and they were all wondering what their kids should study. They were wondering if they should do social science, seeing as AI tools have become adept at many tasks, such as coding, writing, art, etc. I think that we need social sciences, but that we also need people who know the technology and who can continue developing it. I say they should continue doing whatever they're interested in and those jobs will evolve and they'll look different, but there will still be a whole wealth of different types of jobs.

Why physical AI is becoming manufacturing's next advantage From simulation driven development to real world execution, Microsoft and NVIDIA are helping manufacturers leverage AI to cross the industrial frontier with confidence. For decades, manufacturers have pursued automation to drive efficiency, reduce costs, and stabilize operations. That approach delivered meaningful gains, but it is no longer enough. Today's manufacturing leaders face a different challenge: how to grow amid labor constraints, rising complexity, and increasing pressure to innovate faster without sacrificing safety, quality, or trust. The next phase of transformation will not be defined by isolated AI tools or individual robots, but by intelligence that can operate reliably in the physical world . This is where physical AI--intelligence that can sense, reason, and act in the real world--marks a decisive shift.
