Google’s Gemini AI chatbot has quickly become one of the major players in the generative AI space. Despite its rocky start, Gemini is one of the only true competitors to ChatGPT. Here’s everything you need to know about it. What is Google Gemini? Google first introduced its AI endeavor as Bard in March 2023 in a free and experimental capacity.

NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli, ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Andreas Mogensen, JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Satoshi Furukawa, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Konstantin Borisov, are expected splash down in the Gulf of Mexico at around 5:50 a.m. ET on Tuesday morning, and if the skies are clear, folks in more than a dozen states will be able to witness the crew’s homecoming as the capsule flies overhead. The Crew Dragon spacecraft will come into view as…

Overseas care workers, including Indians, will be restricted from bringing dependant family members with them to the UK under new visa rules that come into force from this week. The UK Home Office had announced the plans earlier and on Monday said the new rules follow a “disproportionate” 120,000 dependants accompanying 100,000 workers on the care visa route last year. It is claimed the move will radically cut net migration to the UK and tackle visa abuse to bring down “unsustainable” levels of legal migration. “Care workers make an incredible contribution to our society, taking care of our loved ones…

In a major reversal, former US president Donald Trump on Monday said he was against a ban of TikTok as the fate of the popular video-sharing app was dragged into the US election campaign. Years of on-and-off attempts of banning the Chinese owned app have resurged in the United States with the introduction of a bill in Congress that could see the app forced to cut ties with its Chinese owner, Bytedance. The US House of Representatives could vote this week on the bill with furious lobbying on both sides making it hard to predict the outcome, and the stance…

When I grappled to the roof of a building using my hook, I felt like I’d played Rise of the Ronin before. That’s not a bad thing; I’ve played many of Team Ninja’s previous games, but it felt oddly familiar, in a bloody comforting way. Team Ninja has released titles at a regular cadence over the past several years, and it’s impressive that the studio has been able to maintain at least a certain level of quality. The developer has experimented with different genres in that time too. It took on the Soulslike genre with Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty and Nioh,…

Israel was checking on Monday whether Hamas’s deputy military leader died in an air strike in Gaza, media said, as prospects faded of talks securing a ceasefire to coincide with the holy month of Ramadan. If his death is confirmed, Marwan Issa would be the highest-ranking official from the militant group killed by Israel in five months of war that have pulverised the enclave and killed thousands of Palestinians. Israeli Army Radio said Al Nusseirat camp in central Gaza had been bombed on Saturday night following intelligence about the location of Issa, second-in-command of Hamas’s military wing, the Izz El-Deen…

The question of how fast the universe is expanding continues to confound scientists. Although it might seem like a fairly straightforward issue, the reality is that it has been perplexing the best minds in physics and astronomy for decades — and new research using the James Webb Space Telescope and the Hubble Space Telescope doesn’t make the answer any clearer. Scientists know that the universe is expanding over time, but what they can’t agree on is the rate at which this is happening — called the Hubble constant. There are two main methods used to estimate this constant: one that…

Nearly three-quarters of US teens say they feel happy or peaceful when they don’t have their phones with them, according to a new report from the Pew Research Centre. In a survey published on Monday, Pew also found that despite the positive associations with going phone-free, most teens have not limited their phone or social media use. The survey comes as policymakers and children’s advocates are increasingly concerned with teens’ relationships with their phones and social media. Last fall, dozens of states, including California and New York, sued Instagram and Facebook owner Meta Platforms Inc. for harming young people and…

Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) announced on Monday that total of 2,692 new companies joined it last year, its second-best year on record as companies continue to flock to the free zone’s business district. The Government of Dubai’s authority on commodities trade and enterprise said that the launch of new industry ecosystems, the expanded service offerings and the physical growth of the Uptown Dubai district with the launch of Uptown Tower have driven DMCC’s 2023 growth story. DMCC maintained its leading role as a magnet for foreign direct investment (FDI), accounting for 11 per cent of Dubai’s total FDI inflows…
