Listen Labs found a critical design flaw in a line of children's shorts by letting an AI talk to the actual children. This wasn't a scheduled focus group.
Tech Mahindra’s Q3 earnings cut through the noise. Profit jumped 14%, EBIT surged 40%, and deal wins hit $1.1 billion, the strongest five-year run-rate yet. AI is no longer a side bet; it’s the central engine.
Higgsfield's numbers suggest a shift, not a miracle. $130 million, 15 million users, 4.5 million videos a day. They are impressive. What they mean is more interesting.
The line between data and theft has never been thinner. AI developers voraciously scrape the open web for training material, while content creators watch their work fuel systems that offer nothing in return.

OpenAI is teaching nonprofits how to use its tools. The lesson is happening in a room in Bengaluru, far from Silicon Valley's usual pitch decks. People from aid groups are sitting with engineers. They are not discussing the future of consciousness.

Ola Electric has thrown open its 4680 Bharat Cell platform to Indian startups, offering them direct access to cells and battery packs that can power everything from humanoids and drones to portable medical equipment.
