The Windshield of the Future Looks Like Something from a Sci-Fi Movie Forget about small infotainment screens and simple speedometers. XPeng and Huawei have just unveiled a gigantic 87-inch AR head-up display that covers the entire windshield – and it feels like driving into the future. What Exactly Is It? The new system functions as an augmented reality windshield, where everything from navigation and speed limits to alerts and entertainment is projected directly in front of you. Not in a small square – but across the whole field of view. It’s like driving with a digital layer on top of reality. Imagine road signs floating in the air, arrows guiding you in real-time, and a driving experience that resembles a video game – without taking your eyes off the road. Why 87 Inches? It sounds wild, but the screen size refers to the virtual image area you experience through the windshield. In practice, it covers an area equivalent to looking at an 87” screen floating about ...

Shares in chip designer Alphawave rose sharply on Monday after the British-Canadian firm agreed to be acquired by US rival Qualcomm for around $2.4bn (€2.1bn) in cash. As of around 9.45am London time, Alphawave’s stock had risen around 23% in daily trading on the LSE. Qualcomm’s offer values each share at 183p, a 96% premium on the closing price seen on 31 March, the final day before Qualcomm and Alphawave announced they were holding discussions. The $2.4bn valuation is still half of the total worth attributed to Alphawave when it launched an IPO in 2021. At its stock market debut, Alphawave shares were worth 410p each and the group was valued at £3.1bn (€2.7bn), although the firm has generally traded well below this level since its IPO. The deal is expected to close in the first three months of 2026, subject to shareholder and regulatory approval. Related London Stock Exchange urged to do more to hold onto retail traders ...

Artificial intelligence has been referred to as the fourth industrial revolution. The technology is expected to advance society to the degree that things like the steam engine, electricity and the internet once did. Wedbush Securities senior equity analyst Daniel Ives, known for his vocal and bullish stance on tech stocks, has referred to AI as “the biggest tech transformation in over 40 years.” He estimates that the global AI market is expected to grow to $407 billion by 2027 and to $1.81 trillion by 2030, at a compound annual growth rate of 36%. But AI isn’t a recent development. Its gradual evolution has been ongoing for a few decades. However, the release of ChatGPT and apps that can be used by the average person has brought widespread attention to AI, triggering a race by firms to develop and deploy it. The buildout phase has a few stages, starting with companies tasked with doing infrastructure development around data centers and the electric grids that power th...

Eddy Cue, the senior vice president of internet software and services at Apple Inc., has triggered a wave of uncertainty regarding traditional search engines . Delivering a keynote address at the South By Southwest (SXSW) conference in Austin, TX, on March 12, 2018, Cue made his conviction clear. He forecasted that artificial intelligence (AI) technologies will soon make obsolete traditional search engines such as Google. His comments have led to much speculation about what these regulatory efforts mean for the short- and long-term partnership between Apple and Google. Cue, who is Apple’s services chief, sketched out his vision for how he sees search evolving at the event. He emphasized that AI offers capabilities far beyond those of standard search engines, potentially transforming how users access information online.

If the p romises of some of artificial intelligence's (AI) biggest champions come true, the technology will fundamentally reshape our world; nothing will be the same. Maybe this won't come to pass. Maybe the tech evangelists have oversold a technology's power once again. The thing is, it doesn't have to live up to the full extent of the hype to still have a massive economic impact. And it's not just tech CEOs making bold claims. The International Monetary Fund believes 40% of global employment will be affected by AI -- and 60% in "advanced economies" like the U.S. One of the Big Four accounting firms, PwC, believes AI will add $15.7 trillion to the global economy by 2030. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now.
