Tesla says its annual revenue has fallen for the first time as the electric vehicle (EV) maker shifts it focus to artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics. The company, which is run by multi-billionaire Elon Musk, reported a 3% decline in total revenues in 2025, while profits fell 61% in the last three months of the year. Tesla also announced plans to end production of its Model S and Model X vehicles. It will now use the manufacturing plant in California that made those cars to produce its line of humanoid robots - known as Optimus. In January, China's BYD overtook Tesla as the world's biggest EV maker, while Musk's involvement in politics both in the US and abroad has proved controversial.

"[Chung] comes from drawing, and then they start to work with AI, but not like we've seen in this generative AI movement where it's all about generating images on screen," says Sofian Audry, an artist and scholar at the University of Quebec in Montreal, who studies the relationships that artists establish with machines in their work. "[Chung is] really into this idea of performance. So they're turning their drawing approach into a performative approach where things happen live." Audiences watch as Chung works alongside or surrounded by robots, human and machine drawing simultaneously. The artwork, Chung says, emerges not just in the finished piece but in all the messy in-betweens.

Public high school in America was the product of the time of its invention, which was way back in 1821. But in this era of rapid technological change marked by artificial intelligence and robots moving into more aspects of work and social life, maybe the way teaching is done in high school needs a reboot. It is framed around the thought experiment: What would an ideal high school of the year 2040 look like? The tour guides of this imagined school of the future are two authors: Jim Tracy, a senior advisor at the nonprofit Jobs for the Future who in his career has led private K-12 schools and served as a college president; and Greg Toppo, longtime education journalist. They instead focus on how coming technological change will end up shifting the relationship between people and machines, and therefore between students and teachers.

When AI started to be integrated into machines, many industries were hoping that it will solve the biggest problem they face today – the shortage of workers. For most industries that deal with manufacturing, packaging, logistics, and such, employing a sufficient and efficient workforce continues to be a challenge. The challenges soon became the main disruptive factor when the COVID-19 pandemic saw many factories and plants having to stop their activities due to lockdowns. While the situation has since improved, the reality is, that the reliance on the human workforce has been a concern. To deal with these, the industry began adopting more automated machinery.

More and more people have started to pay attention to artificial intelligence (AI) in recent years. According to Edelman's special report on tech within its annual Trust Barometer report, people around the world have shown concern that AI and robots could replace human workers. As a result, fewer people are willing to share their personal data, as their trust in the media, online social platforms and search engines seems to have declined. Some say the chasm between trust and technology has formed for good reasons: For most of AI's existence, there hasn't been much regulation around it. At times, the rules may seem a bit loose and opaque for just how world-changing it could be.

Artificial Intelligence (AI), is changing the way businesses operate and communicate with customers. Companies are now able to automate most functions that were previously performed by humans using AI. This is because it can do them better, faster, and more efficiently than human beings. This revolution has resulted in a shift in the skills required for most jobs. As technology advances, robots will surpass human intelligence and efficiency in all tasks. HR leaders have begun to prepare for the future by learning and reskilling.

We've been so worried about whether AI-driven robots will take our jobs that we forgot to ask a much more basic question: will they take our bike lanes? That's the question Austin, Texas, is currently grappling with, and it points to all sorts of unresolved issues related to AI and robots. As revealed in Anaconda's State of Data Science 2021 report, the biggest concern data scientists have with AI today is the possibility, even likelihood, of bias in the algorithms. Leave it to Austin (tagline: "Keep Austin weird") to be the first to have to grapple with robot overlords taking over their bike lanes. If a robot that looks like a "futuristic ice cream truck" in your lane seems innocuous, consider what Jake Boone, vice-chair of Austin's Bicycle Advisory Council, has to say: "What if in two years we have several hundred of these on the road?" If this seems unlikely, consider just how fast electric scooters took over many cities.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming how businesses execute their operations and communicate with their customers. Using human-like computers, companies have begun automating most of the functions previously done by humans because AI can perform them much better, faster, and efficiently. This revolution has led to a change in skills requirements in most jobs, and as the technology gets stronger, robots will supersede human efficiency and intelligence in every task. As a result, HR leaders are now preparing for the future of the work through learning and reskilling. Since AI is smarter, some jobs are either being automated or replaced with AI and robots.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) describes computational system with intelligent/complex behaviour suitable for achieving goals. While AI can be entirely software, robots are subject to physical impact, typically through'sensors'. They exert physical force, usually through'actuators' like a gripper or a turning wheel. Only a tiny portion of robots is humanoid like you see in the movies. Some robots use AI while others do not.
