Rivian is, by every measure, a maker and seller of EVs. But in 2025, it was the company’s software and services that helped its annual revenue grow by 8%.  Rivian reported Thursday $5.38 billion in total revenue in 2025, up from $4.97 billion from the prior year. That rosy picture dulls a bit when looking just at its automotive revenue, which fell 15% to $3.8 billion in 2025. The fall was fueled by a $134 million drop in regulatory credit sales and lower vehicle deliveries, which were partially offset by higher average selling prices, according to Rivian.  Meanwhile, software and…

While the artificial intelligence industry touts that AI will replace entry-level jobs, not every company is scaling back hiring these positions. In IBM’s case, it’s going all in. Hardware giant IBM plans to triple entry-level hiring in the U.S. in 2026, according to reporting from Bloomberg. Nickle LaMoreaux, IBM’s chief human resource officer, announced the initiative at Charter’s Leading with AI Summit on Tuesday. “And yes, it’s for all these jobs that we’re being told AI can do,” LaMoreaux said. These jobs will look different than the entry-level jobs IBM used to offer, she explained. According to LaMoreaux, she went…

It’s the middle of February, and the air is dry. There are fine lines emerging on my forehead, maybe because I don’t moisturize enough, but maybe as a harbinger of something greater: Each day I grow closer to my own death. Soon, I will be 30. I will never be younger than I am right now. Fintech-founder-turned-longevity-guru Bryan Johnson has an offer that has caught my attention. For the low, low price of $1 million per year, I can pay him to show me the ropes of the “exact protocol” he’s followed for the last five years. He calls the…

After a particularly poor performance on its fourth-quarter earnings, Pinterest CEO Bill Ready attempted to favorably compare the digital pinboarding site to the popular AI chatbot ChatGPT. Trying to highlight its potential as a unique search destination, Ready asserted that the site sees larger search volume than ChatGPT.

Scientists at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine at the National University of Singapore have identified a protein that may help restore the brain’s ability to produce new cells as it ages. Their findings, published in Science Advances, point to a transcription factor called cyclin D-binding myb-like transcription factor 1 (DMTF1) as a central regulator of neural stem cell activity in older brains. Transcription factors are proteins that control how genes are turned on or off in specific cells. Neural stem cells are responsible for generating new neurons, which play an essential role in learning and memory. As people…
