A vague prompt gives vague advice. Context changes the quality of the answer.
The more clearly you explain your situation, constraints, priorities, and goals, the more useful AI becomes for complex decisions.

AI agents seem to be increasingly capable of performing economically valuable tasks, but current benchmarks measure this capability only narrowly.
Zora Z. Wang and colleagues at Carnegie Mellon University and Stanford University mapped examples drawn from agent benchmarks to statistics that represent U.S. labor. The mapping revealed a mismatch between the tests, which generally emphasize software development, and the more varied work most people do.

China halted Meta’s planned acquisition of Manus, asserting tighter government control over strategically important AI technology.
The decision disrupts a popular strategy among Chinese AI startups: relocating abroad to attract Western investment and partnerships.

“Budget” and “financials” are different words, but embeddings understand they’re related.
That’s the foundation behind semantic search and one of the core building blocks of modern multimodal systems.

Studies found that Google’s AI system for detecting breast cancer in mammograms identified slightly more cancers than human radiologists. The system caught some cases doctors initially missed.
Trials also showed the system could reduce radiologists’ workload. But researchers noted that trust remains a major barrier to clinical adoption.

Your AI image generator needs a critic.
In our new short course built in collaboration with @GoogleCloudTech, you’ll build agents that generate images and video, judge their own outputs, and iterate to improve results. This course explores what happens when AI starts evaluating AI.
Taught by Katie Nguyen and Wafae Bakkali.

One of the biggest prompting mistakes is asking AI to generate the final draft immediately.
A better workflow? Start with the outline first. Small changes to the structure can dramatically improve the final result and help you avoid generic AI writing.

AI gives generic answers when your prompts are generic.
The fastest way to get more interesting outputs? Give it more specific, unexpected context.
In AI Prompting for Everyone, Andrew Ng shares practical techniques to help you get more useful, creative responses from AI systems.

Data is hungry for context.
A transcript tells you what was said. Audio can tell you how it was said. Images contain text, diagrams, and visual information. Video brings it all together over time.
Most enterprise data lives in these formats, and most of it still goes unused.
