GenAI is undoubtedly one of the most significant potentials in recent technology history. Unlike other technology promises, which quickly follow hype cycle expectations with a fairly prominent drop-off, genAI appears to be bucking this trend. GenAI is proving its massive cost and time-saving benefits, which are truly workplace agnostic and ready for many industries.

To avoid awkward and sometimes disastrous learning content, instructional designers must use authentic translation in the right context to get optimal results. For example, even a simple phrase like “got milk” translates to “are you lactating” in Mexico. Can you imagine what a straight translation might do to your course? With over 317 million people in the US and over 6.7 billion potential customers in the world, personalizing training seems logical.

Clawball is a 3v3 feline soccer game inspired by Gorilla Tag, and we went hands-on with the alpha build. Here are our impressions. Following ARVORE's work on Pixel Ripped and YUKI , I was pleasantly surprised to see the Brazil-based studio announce Clawball. It's an inventive take on multiplayer soccer that uses arm-swinging locomotion, and what's here feels like a mash-up between Gorilla Tag and Rocket League.

Augmented reality (AR) has exploded in popularity, blurring the lines between the physical and digital worlds. Imagine trying on clothes virtually in a store, visualizing furniture in your living room before you buy it, or even receiving step-by-step repair instructions with 3D overlays. These are just a few examples of how AR is transforming various industries, and the foundation for these experiences lies in powerful AR platforms.

When the internet went mainstream at the end of the last century, many businesses that were formerly household names paid the price for failing to adapt. I believe that AI will be even more transformative to business and society. However, in my work with companies of all shapes and sizes, I see that many of them are still not ready for the changes to come.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of retail, few companies are as well-positioned to harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI) as Walmart. While most consumers are familiar with Walmart’s B2C offerings, the retail giant has been quietly revolutionizing the B2B space through its Walmart Business division. I recently had the opportunity to speak with Ashley Hubka, Senior Vice President and General Manager at Walmart, to explore how the company is leveraging AI to create a more effici

Big news came in last week. Meta is making big moves to scale its smart glasses and AI investments, as the two technologies are becoming closer as parallel use cases emerge. The XR hardware space is growing to include more hardware variety than in years past when the general market focused on VR headsets. Now, significant vendors deploy emerging hardware; on the flip side, software providers must follow suit and leverage the tools provided to create device-shifting applications.
