Welcome to News’ Artificial Intelligence newsletter featuring the latest advances in AI technology.

IN TODAY’S NEWSLETTER:

– The Pentagon AI battle will help decide who controls our most powerful military technology.
– An AI T-shirt could detect hidden heart risks
– OPINION: MARGARET SPELLINGS: AI is here, and America’s schools are not preparing our children to survive.

DIGITAL BATTLEFIELD: I spent decades inside the Pentagon watching technology reshape warfare. I saw precision munitions change the battlefield. I saw how satellites compressed decision cycles. But nothing compares to what is happening now, writes Lt. Col. Robert Maginnis (ret.).

LIVE-SAVING FASHION: Your next heart test may not be done in a hospital. It could start with something you pull out of your dresser. Researchers at Imperial College London are developing an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered T-shirt that monitors the heart for days. The mission is simple: detect hereditary heart rhythm disorders that often remain hidden until it is too late.

OPINION: Barely a day goes by without a new headline about the potential of artificial intelligence to dramatically change the workforce and the economy. The pace of change is staggering, and the truth is that no one can say with certainty where this technology will lead or what jobs it will ultimately transform. But here’s what we do know: change is accelerating rapidly. and that of America educational and labor systems they are not prepared, writes Margaret Spellings.

OPINION: History teaches a simple lesson: the nation that sets the standards sets the future. In the 20th century, the United States wrote the rule book for aviation, computing, and finance. On the 21st, the decisive battlefield is artificial intelligence. And make no mistake: Beijing intends to write the rules, writes Steve Forbes.

WAR OF TRUTH: Scroll through social media for five minutes. You’ll probably see something that looks real but feels a little strange. Now Microsoft says it has a technical plan to help verify where online content comes from and whether it has been altered.

PROTECTED CONSUMERS: Tech giants have backed President Donald Trump’s pledge to pay more for electricity to run resource-intensive AI data centers ahead of his signing on Wednesday. Google, Microsoft, Meta, Oracle, xAI, OpenAI and Amazon will join Trump at the White House to sign the Taxpayer Protection Pledge, an agreement to ensure that infrastructure and power supply costs for data centers are not passed on to the public, according to a White House official.

PROOF OF TRUTH: Creators who post AI-generated armed conflict videos without clear disclosure will be penalized under new X policies aimed at preventing manipulation and misinformation.

CHATBOT BATTLE: Grok, X’s AI chatbot, has begun rolling out its first beta version of Grok 4.20, which Elon Musk and X say will provide not only better performance and new features, but also the least “politically correct” platform in terms of liberal bias.

GAIN ON THE NETWORK: When you open a chatbot, stream a show, or back up photos to the cloud, you’re accessing a vast network of data centers. These facilities power artificial intelligence, search engines, and the online services we use every day. There is now a growing debate over who should pay for the electricity these data centers consume.
