OpenAI is branching out: a connected pen to bring AI to life in 2026
Over the past two years, there has been a surge in attempts to embed artificial intelligence into physical objects. From connected badges and smart pins to wearable assistants designed to replace smartphones, most of these devices have sparked more curiosity than enthusiasm. They’re too conspicuous, too intrusive, too obvious. Bucking the trend of this proliferation of “smart” devices, OpenAI could…

With the help of AI, gymnastics is becoming a science of movement
Gymnastics has always been a sport of excellence in which performance depends on absolute control of the body, space, and time. Yet, despite strict rules and experienced judges, scoring has often been a source of controversy, particularly at major international competitions. In recent years, artificial intelligence…

CES 2026: This AI brain could render traditional automotive electronics obsolete
At CES 2026, automotive artificial intelligence ceased to be a promise confined to futuristic prototypes. It took shape in a much more pragmatic approach: bringing advanced intelligence to existing vehicles without completely overhauling their architecture. It is in this context that BOS Semiconductors, a young South Korean player in the field of dedicated semiconductors…

Our DNA speaks volumes; AI is beginning to understand what this means for our health
For years, DNA sequencing has made it possible to identify thousands of genetic variations in an individual, without knowing which ones were actually linked to a given disease. In 2025, a new generation of artificial intelligence tools is radically changing this situation. Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at…

AI Analyzes Athletes’ Momentum: A 4D Analysis of the Explosive Movement in the Triple Jump
The triple jump is a sequence of movements requiring extreme precision, in which each phase of the motion depends closely on the one that precedes it. Hop, step, jump—three pushes off the ground, three instances of energy loss to minimize, three moments of balance to master. For a long time, even the best coaches relied on traditional video analysis and intuitive experience to correct a…

We’ve come to take AI for granted—a look back at a pivotal year
By 2025, artificial intelligence has become so seamlessly integrated into everyday life that it is almost imperceptible. Whether a user is automatically rewriting a work email, a search engine is synthesizing multiple sources into a clear answer, or a smartphone is anticipating the day’s priorities, AI operates in the background, without…

Well-being From string tension to the micro-oscillations of the torso, AI reveals the mechanics of the perfect shot
In archery, the difference between a bullseye and a hit on the outer ring can sometimes come down to a single breath, a tiny shift in the torso, or the slightest bend of the elbow. Over the past two years, artificial intelligence has been transforming the sport by revealing the mechanics behind every…

Beyond AI, Energy, Water, and Carbon: The Environmental Outlook for 2025
The year 2025 marks a symbolic and operational turning point in how artificial intelligence is perceived. Long viewed as primarily a software-based technology, AI is now recognized as a heavy-duty physical infrastructure that consumes energy, water, metals, and land. According to the World Economic Forum, more than 75% of the computing capacity deployed in…

Mistral AI's OCR 3: From Text Recognition to Document Understanding
With OCR 3, Mistral AI has reached a major milestone in automatic document recognition. While traditional OCR solutions focus primarily on extracting plain text, OCR 3 aims to provide a much more nuanced understanding of complex documents, such as structured reports, administrative forms, legal contracts, and other documents…

360° Well-being: Artificial Intelligence as a Key Tool for Supporting Athletes
Athletic performance no longer depends solely on the quality of physical training. Today’s teams know that nutrition, mental health, and overall well-being are just as critical to longevity as they are to results. Artificial intelligence is now at the heart of this quiet transformation, serving as an analytical partner,…

AI is getting involved in ball movement; PassAI reveals the truth behind the passes
In soccer, the pass is often considered the simplest play—almost invisible because it seems so natural. Yet it is the essential tactical building block that shapes a match, organizes a press, breaks through a line, or causes a defensive block to collapse. Until now, analyzing a pass was like measuring a rate…

AI is woven into the fabric, acting as a second skin that tracks every athletic movement
Sports training is undergoing a quiet but profound transformation. Just when smartwatches and heart rate monitors seemed to have taken biomechanical analysis to its peak, a new generation of smart clothing is changing the game. Lighter, more flexible, and closer to the body, these garments are weaving artificial intelligence into their very fabric…

IBM study reveals the rise of AI-driven sports content
An international survey conducted by IBM in the summer of 2025 paints a clear picture: fans no longer want to simply consume sports; they want to feel it, analyze it, and immerse themselves in it. They crave an experience that unfolds before, during, and after the game—an experience shaped by artificial intelligence. With more than…
