Skip the iPhone, the iPod, and the Macintosh. If you want to understand how Apple Inc. became an industry behemoth, look no further than the 1977 Apple II. The Apple II was a versatile piece of hardware, but its most compelling story isn't found in the feat of its engineering, the personalities of Apple's founders, or the way it set the stage for the company's multibillion-dollar future. Instead, historian Laine Nooney shows, what made the Apple II iconic was its software.

Story34
We often think of AI in terms of futuristic robots with glowing eyes or walking, talking machines that look and act like humans. That’s the image many movies and books give us, and while that vision is fascinating, it’s only a tiny slice of what AI actually is. In real life, AI is less about building androids and more about designing systems that can learn, reason, and adapt—traits we usually associate with human intelligence. It’s about creating software and machines that can recognize patterns, make decisions, and even improve themselves over time through experience.

Five mysterious billionaires summoned Douglas Rushkoff to a desert resort for a private talk. The topic? How to survive The Event: the societal catastrophe they know is coming. Rushkoff came to understand that these men were under the influence of The Mindset, a Silicon Valley-style certainty that they can break the laws of physics, economics, and morality to escape a disaster of their own making—as long as they have enough money and the right technology.

Eine revolutionäre Erfindung – und ihre Zukunft. Tim Berners-Lee ist der womöglich einflussreichste Erfinder der modernen Welt. Geboren im selben Jahr wie Bill Gates und Steve Jobs, teilte er seine Erfindung, das World Wide Web, ohne sie kommerziell zu verwerten. Auch deshalb konnte sich diese Technologie so schnell über den gesamten Globus verbreiten. Mit ihr wurde die Menschheit zur ersten digitalen Spezies: Hier, im Web, vernetzen wir uns, hier leben, arbeiten, streiten und träumen wir.

Artificial Intelligence helps choose what books you buy, what movies you see, and even who you date. It puts the "smart" in your smartphone and soon it will drive your car. It makes most of the trades on Wall Street, and controls vital energy, water, and transportation infrastructure. But Artificial Intelligence can also threaten our existence. In as little as a decade, AI could match and then surpass human intelligence. Corporations and government agencies are pouring billions into achieving AI’s Holy Grail - human-level intelligence.

From everyday apps to complex algorithms, Ruha Benjamin cuts through tech-industry hype to understand how emerging technologies can reinforce white supremacy and deepen social inequity. Benjamin argues that automation, far from being a sinister story of racist programmers scheming on the dark web, has the potential to hide, speed up, and deepen discrimination while appearing neutral and even benevolent when compared to the racism of a previous era.
