These California tech hubs are set to dominate the AI economy

PositiveTechnologyTechnology & Innovation
A fresh Brookings Institution report highlights which U.S. metro areas are leading the charge in AI—and surprise, surprise, California’s tech hubs are stealing the spotlight. The study crunched data on AI adoption, talent pools, and innovation across 387 cities, and it’s clear that places like Silicon Valley and San Francisco aren’t just keeping their edge—they’re widening the gap. If you’re betting on where the AI gold rush will hit hardest, these spots are the frontrunners.
Editor’s Note: AI isn’t just some abstract future—it’s reshaping economies now, and this report shows who’s winning (and who’s getting left behind). For workers, investors, or even policymakers, it’s a roadmap to where the opportunities—and competition—will be fiercest. Plus, it’s another sign that California’s tech dominance isn’t fading anytime soon.

I Tried AI to Build a Website in 3 Hours -- It Only Took 30 Minutes
PositiveTechnology
A writer decided to put Wix's AI website builder to the test, expecting it to take up to three hours to create a functional site. To their surprise, the AI whipped up a fully working website in just 30 minutes—far faster than anticipated.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about saving time—it’s a sign of how quickly AI tools are evolving to handle tasks that used to require hours of manual work.

Hackers hijack Microsoft Teams to spread malware to certain firms - find out if you're at risk
NegativeTechnology
Cybercriminals are exploiting Microsoft Teams to target specific companies with malware, using the platform’s trusted business communications as a disguise. Victims aren’t random—they’re handpicked, making this a sophisticated, tailored attack. If your organization relies on Teams, it’s worth checking your security settings.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t your average spam attack—it’s a calculated strike against businesses, leveraging a tool many teams use daily. Since Teams is central to workplace collaboration, the breach feels personal and disruptive. It’s a reminder that even “safe” platforms can be weaponized, and vigilance (or better yet, preemptive security measures) is non-negotiable.

Samsung chairman cleared of fraud by South Korea's top court
NeutralTechnology
South Korea’s Supreme Court has overturned a lower court’s conviction of Samsung chairman Lee Jae-yong, clearing him of fraud charges tied to a controversial 2015 merger. The ruling ends a years-long legal saga that had cast uncertainty over Samsung’s leadership and raised questions about corporate influence in the country’s justice system.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about one executive—it’s a big deal for Samsung, South Korea’s economy, and the ongoing debate over how much power chaebols (family-run conglomerates) wield. While the court’s decision brings closure, critics worry it reinforces a pattern of light consequences for corporate elites. For Samsung, though, it means stability (for now).
