Mezzanine floors are important in many facilities. They provide extra space for storage or work without taking up more ground space. However, they often face heavy use from equipment and people. Over time, this can cause the floor to wear down.

The drone industry has landed after a long flight to the implementation of drone traffic management.

Diffusion models like OpenAI's DALL-E are becoming increasingly useful in helping brainstorm new designs. Humans can prompt these systems to generate an image, create a video, or refine a blueprint, and come back with ideas they hadn't considered before.

Robotic systems have the potential to greatly enhance daily living for the over one billion individuals worldwide who experience some form of disability. Brain-computer interfaces or BCIs present a compelling option by enabling direct communication between the brain and external devices, bypassing traditional muscle-based control.

Inspired by a simple children's toy, a jumping popper toy, researchers have unlocked a key to designing more agile and predictable soft robots. Soft robots, made from flexible materials, hold immense promise for delicate tasks, but their complex movements have been difficult to predict and control, especially dynamic actions like jumping.

A research team has achieved the holy grail of quantum computing: an exponential speedup that’s unconditional. By using clever error correction and IBM’s powerful 127-qubit processors, they tackled a variation of Simon’s problem, showing quantum machines are now breaking free from classical limitations, for real.

Despite the fact that Microsoft has its own AI writer/assistant that competes directly with ChatGPT, many of its customers prefer ChatGPT.

In some cases, the preference is so pronounced, many companies are opting for ChatGPT even though they have existing contracts with Microsoft to use its in-house alternative, MS Copilot, according to Bloomberg.

The trend must be an especially tough pill to swallow for Microsoft, given that Microsoft essentially helped put ChatGPT’s maker – OpenAI – on the map by investing $13.5 billion in OpenAI.

ChatGPT Now Works With Digital Designer Canva Onboard: Canva – a design tool for Web sites, social media and other digital content used by 240 million – is now fully integrated into ChatGPT.

The fusion enables ChatGPT users with Canva accounts to do all their Canva design work from within the ChatGPT interface – essentially enabling them to simultaneously combine the power of both ChatGPT and Canva as they design.

Observes Anwar Haneef, head of ecosystem, Canva: “We’re embedding Canva directly into the AI tools people use every day so they can brainstorm, create, and publish content faster.

“This is a major step in our vision to make the complex simple and build an all-in-one AI workflow that’s secure and accessible to all.”

*AI Reasoning Engines: Maybe Not as Smart as First Thought: CNBC reports that the latest round of AI engines designed to specialize in high-end reasoning may be less snazzy than imagined.

The problem: Turns-out, many of the reasoning models are good at solving somewhat complex problems.

But challenge a reasoning model with a substantial problem, and they often ‘give up’ after discovering that finding the answer is going to require a bit of work.

*ChatGPT Competitor Morphing Into a No-Code Programming Tool: Claude – an AI assistant that once competed directly with ChatGPT – has made plans to become a no-code development tool.

Essentially, Claude is being redesigned so that people with absolutely no computer coding experience can design their own apps by simply using everyday language prompts.

Observes writer Michael Nunez: “Early adopters are creating games with non-player characters that remember choices and adapt storylines, smart tutors that adjust explanations based on user understanding, and data analyzers that answer plain-English questions about uploaded spreadsheets.”

*Dream Recorder: For AI Fanatics Who Think They Have It All: Achieving an entirely new level of niche marketing, the creators behind Dream Recorder have put together a plan for an app designed to archive your dream as a video in a matter of minutes.

Users waking up from a dream simply speak into the glow-in-the-dark device, triggering it to auto-produce an AI video version of the dream.

Moreover, the creators of the Dream Recorder assure the curious that making the device is simple.

Advises the DreamRecorder.ai Web site: “Download the open-source code, gather the off-the-shelf hardware components, 3D print the shell, and assemble everything. No soldering required.”

*Mac Users Can Now Transcribe Audio With ChatGPT: A new “ChatGPT Record” feature enables Mac users to record, transcribe and/or summarize audio.

The feature enables users to work with up to 120 minutes of audio and performs best in English.

You do need to be an elite paying subscriber for access though: Users of ChatGPT Pro, Team, Enterprise and Edu all qualify.

*ChatGPT: Your Work Can Stay Private – But it Will be Archived: While ChatGPT users can now set the app to delete all chat inputs and outputs after they exit, ChatGPT’s maker is still being forced to keep an offline archive of that data indefinitely.

The reason: The New York Times and other publishers, which are fighting ChatGPT’s maker – OpenAI — in a copyright lawsuit, say they have the right to use those outputs as evidence of copyright infringement — and a judge’s order has upheld that request.

Observes writer AJ Dellinger: “OpenAI is expected to continue trying to fight the order as the case moves forward.”

*Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp Goes All-In on AI Writing Tools: While most newspaper publishers experimenting with AI tools like ChatGPT tend to publicly downplay their interest in AI tools that directly automate writing, News Corp is not among them.

Writer Amanda Mead reports that a writing automation tool – dubbed NewsGPT — has been introduced to editors and writers at the Australian, Courier Mail and Daily Telegraph newspapers in Australia that:

–Writes articles from the perspective of various personas

–Writes articles using various writing styles

–Reconfigures leads and fresh angles for a story – as an editor would do

–Includes a “Story Cutter,” which can edit and produce copy, effectively removing or reducing the need for subeditors

Observes Mead: “The Media Entertainment and Arts Alliance said the AI programs were not only a threat to jobs but also threatened to undermine accountable journalism.”

*Snapshot: Top Ten AI Writers for 2025: OfficeChai has just released its picks for the best AI for writers in 2025.

The list offers a number of names that have earned similar accolades on many other lists, including Jasper, Copy.ai, Writesonic, Rytr, Google Gemini, Anyword, ClosersCopy and Peppertype.ai.

Two names that may be new to some are Grammarly – which has evolved from a proofreader to an AI assistant – and Simplified AI Writer.

*AI Big Picture: The Tsunami of Mediocre AI Content Has Arrived: HBO Comic John Oliver skewers creators of the tidal wave of AI slop that is affronting Web and social media users in this spot-on, hilarious, in-depth, 29-minute video.

As feared, given the ever-increasing ease that AI has given even the most untalented to create the written word, audio, music and videos, there appears no end in sight to the torrent of low quality content, deep fakes, misleading content – and worse – currently flooding the digital universe.

The solution? Looks like we’re still looking for one.
