NotebookLM is Google’s free AI research tool, and you use it in six steps. Sign in, create a notebook, and upload up to 50 sources. Then ask questions, check the inline citations, and open the Studio panel to generate study guides, an audio podcast, or a narrated video. Unlike a normal chatbot, NotebookLM grounds every answer only in the documents you give it, so it cites the exact passage behind each sentence and rarely makes things up. Each source can hold up to 500,000 words, which means one notebook can absorb a textbook, a stack of PDFs, a few websites, and a YouTube lecture at the same time. This guide […]

For the first time since ChatGPT launched, Anthropic has overtaken OpenAI in US business adoption. Ramp’s April 2026 AI Index, published on May 13, puts Anthropic at 34.4% of tracked enterprise spending versus OpenAI at 32.3%. Anthropic added 3.8 percentage points in a single month while OpenAI fell 2.9. A year ago, OpenAI sat near 32% and Anthropic was under 8%. The lead is one month old, but the trajectory is brutal. If you’re choosing between Claude and ChatGPT, or trying to make sense of which company you actually want to bet on, the honest answer is messier than the headline. OpenAI is still the biggest AI brand on the […]

How much water does AI use? A single text prompt uses anywhere from about 0.26 mL, Google’s official figure for a median Gemini prompt, to a few milliliters for a typical chatbot reply. The scary viral ~500 mL “per email” number comes from also counting the electricity supply chain, which is why estimates span more than 1,000x. At scale it adds up, with US data centers consuming about 17 billion gallons of water directly in 2023 and that figure projected to double or even quadruple by 2028. This guide gives you verified numbers for every version of the question, so per prompt, per question, per day, per year, and per […]

ChatGPT Personal Finance is the biggest expansion of ChatGPT’s role in your daily life since memory, and it’s also the most polarizing. OpenAI launched the Personal Finance preview on May 15, 2026, for ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the United States only. Plaid powers the bank connections, with support for more than 12,000 banks, brokerages, and credit cards, including Chase, Schwab, Fidelity, Robinhood, American Express, and Capital One. Once your accounts are linked, ChatGPT can read balances, transactions, investments, and liabilities, and answer real questions about your money grounded in your actual numbers, not a generic financial textbook. It is also the feature that has Reddit and X asking “what sane […]

How much energy does ChatGPT use? A single query uses about 0.34 watt-hours of electricity, according to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, roughly what an oven draws in a little over one second. Independent analysis by Epoch AI puts a typical GPT-4o query near 0.3 Wh, about the same as one Google search. The catch is that heavier models reverse this; researchers estimate GPT-5 averages around 18 watt-hours per query, with complex answers reaching 40 Wh. Across 2.5 billion queries a day, even the small number adds up to roughly 310 GWh a year. This guide gives you a dated, sourced answer for every version of the question, so per query, […]

Alibaba’s Qwen3.7-Max launched on May 20, 2026 at the Alibaba Cloud Summit in Hangzhou, and the numbers are loud. It scored 56.6 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index at launch (good for #5 that week, currently sitting top 10 of 151 measured models), the highest-ranked Chinese AI model on that leaderboard to date. It carries a 1 million-token context window, costs $2.50 per 1M input tokens, and Alibaba’s internal testing reports a 35-hour autonomous coding run that fired 1,158 tool calls and hit a 10× speedup over the standard Triton reference. So is it actually better than GPT-5.5, Claude Opus 4.7, or Gemini 3.5? Short answer, on a price-per-intelligence basis, […]

Sam Altman is (1) the CEO of OpenAI, (2) the executive who steered the launch of ChatGPT in November 2022, (3) the former president of startup accelerator Y Combinator, (4) a billionaire venture investor worth an estimated $2 to $3.3 billion as of May 2026, and (5) one of the most influential people in artificial intelligence. Sam is 41 years old and 5 feet 6 inches tall. He was born to a Jewish family in Chicago on April 22, 1985. He has been married to Australian software engineer Oliver Mulherin since January 2024. This article covers Sam Altman’s full biography in one place. It runs from his Stanford dropout days […]

The smart glasses race just got real. Google and Samsung unveiled their Android XR glasses at Google I/O 2026 on May 19, with a confirmed Fall 2026 ship date, partnerships with Warby Parker and Gentle Monster, and Gemini AI built into every interaction. Apple’s answer, code-named N50, is still roughly a year away, with Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman pegging a 2027 launch and production starting at the end of 2026. That roughly 9 to 12 month gap is the entire story. If you want AI glasses on your face this year, Android XR is the only ticket, and yes, it works with iPhone. If you live deep inside the Apple ecosystem […]

On May 6, 2026, Mindtrip launched the first all-in-one agentic AI flight booking experience, where you describe a trip in plain language, the AI compares fares across airlines, and you check out with PayPal inside the same chat. That single launch tells you everything about where travel apps went in 2026: away from form fields, toward conversations. This guide ranks the best travel apps 2026 has to offer for travellers who want AI to do the heavy lifting. You’ll find AI-native planners like Layla, Mindtrip, and Wonderplan, AI features bolted onto legacy apps like Google Flights, Kayak, Skyscanner, and GetYourGuide, an all-in-one AI assistant from Fello AI that drafts itineraries […]

Google launched Gemini Spark on May 19, 2026 at I/O, and the press spent the next 24 hours calling it “Google’s answer to Claude Cowork.” That framing matters because Anthropic already shipped Cowork in general availability on April 9, 2026, which means Gemini Spark vs Claude Cowork is the only AI-agent comparison most knowledge workers actually need this year. One launched yesterday, the other has six weeks of real-world wear. You came here for a verdict, not a press recap, so this guide does four things. It tells you what each agent is in plain English, breaks down the pricing (Spark wants the new $100/month Google AI Ultra tier, Cowork […]
