Google has previewed new features for Gmail, including AI Overviews for search and a new AI Inbox, which will roll out starting today. AI Overviews allow users to ask natural language questions about their emails, providing AI-generated responses without the need to search through multiple threads. These features will primarily be available for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers, with some functionalities offered for free to all users. The AI Inbox will present a personalized snapshot of users' inboxes, highlighting tasks and important topics, and is powered by Google's Gemini 3 technology. Additionally, Google emphasizes that personal Workspace content will not be used to train AI models, with options to disable AI features. AI Inbox will initially be available to Trusted Testers, with broader access anticipated in the coming months.

A report from Oxford Economics questions the narrative that artificial intelligence (AI) is causing widespread job losses. The analysis indicates that while some layoffs are attributed to AI, these account for only about 4.5% of total job losses, with economic conditions being a far greater factor. The report suggests that companies may be framing layoffs as due to AI to present a positive narrative to investors, rather than addressing traditional business challenges. Additionally, it points out that productivity growth has not significantly improved, contradicting the notion that AI is replacing workers on a large scale. Lastly, the increase in graduate unemployment is viewed as cyclical rather than structural, linked to an oversupply of degree holders.

Bitcoin Core has removed downloads for Version 30 (v30) due to a serious bug that could potentially wipe out funds in Satoshi-era wallets for users who did not back up their Berkeley DataBase (BDB) files prior to upgrading. This issue also exists in Version 30.1, which was intended to be a more secure release. Developers are urging users to back up their files and await Version 30.2, which will include a bug fix. The bug poses a risk to early coiners and those who have enabled pruning, as it could lead to the complete deletion of their wallets. The vulnerability does not affect node operators who use hardware wallets to store their private key data.

Nvidia introduced the Reuben chipset to manage inference loads efficiently, while forming key partnerships with OpenAI, Samsung, and others to meet soaring AI demands.

Evan Seech outlines a five-step framework for generating high-converting ads tailored for B2B services, claiming it has yielded continual ideas over three years. The first step involves mapping customer avatars focusing on psychographics rather than demographics. Next, he suggests extracting 10-20 key pain points and aspirations for each avatar. Each pain point should then be turned into a single ad, emphasizing clarity in messaging. The fourth step stresses the importance of design for quick engagement, while the final step recommends building a creative calendar to ensure a steady flow of unique content over time. This framework has been applied successfully across various industries, including B2B SaaS and real estate.

Jeffrey Huntley developed a plugin called Ralph Wiggum for Claude Code, which improves task completion accuracy by implementing continuous evaluations rather than a one-time check. This iterative approach not only enhances AI performance by clarifying what 'done' means but also highlights the need for clear task definitions in software development, especially for non-technical workflows by 2026. As technology evolves, employees must articulate project expectations effectively to optimize automation and maintain accuracy.
