What many applicants may not realize is that, nowadays, the first hurdle in applying for a job is dealing with AI. Candidates now often must clear an artificial intelligence system that screens their résumés that quietly determines who advances, and whose application is filed away in a drawer or spam folder, never to see the light of day. Now, a new lawsuit filed on Tuesday is the first in the U.S. to accuse an AI hiring company of violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Eightfold AI, a venture capital-backed artificial intelligence hiring platform, is being sued by two workers in California for allegedly compiling reports used to screen job applicants without their knowledge, consent, or any opportunity to correct errors.“I’ve applied to hundreds of jobs, but it feels like an unseen force is stopping me from being fairly considered,” said Erin Kistler, one of the plaintiffs, in a press release. Both plaintiffs applied to roles at several companies that use Eightfold AI, including PayPal and Microsoft, according to the complaint. Out of the thousands of jobs she has sought in the past year, only 0.3% of her applications have progressed to a follow-up or interview, Kistler told the New York Times. “It’s disheartening, and I know I’m not alone in feeling this way.”Eightfold AI’s algorithm trawls career sites, job boards, and résumé databases to create a data set of “1 million job titles, 1 million skills, and the profiles of more than 1 billion people working in every job, profession, industry, and geography”, according to their website—much of it “inaccurate, incomplete, or drawn from unknown third-party sources,” the complaint alleges. Using an AI model trained on that data, plaintiffs say, Eightfold AI scores job applications on a scale of one to five, based on their skills, experience, and the hiring manager’s goals. These AI-generated evaluations function as “consumer reports under the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and California law,” the lawsuit alleges. Unlike credit reports (a type of consumer report which the FCRA regulates to ensure accuracy and fairness), applicants are given no feedback on their scores or how the rating was generated, rarely aware that an algorithm evaluated them at all. If the tool is making mistakes, candidates have no ability to correct them. This creates a “black box” situation where we can see what goes into an AI system, and what comes out. But the reasoning in between remains hidden or incomprehensible to humans or the employers relying on the scoring when considering potential hires. This opacity is troubling at a time when more companies are relying on AI for hiring and candidate screening. A spokesperson for Eightfold AI told Fast Company that “this characterization about our products is factually incorrect. Eightfold offers technology that enterprises use to manage their talent processes and engage with candidates. Eightfold does not ‘lurk’ or scrape personal web history, social media or the like to build secret dossiers. Eightfold’s platform operates on data that is submitted by candidates to our customers or provided by our customers.” They continued: “We use information such as skills, experience and education that applicants choose to submit to our customers and data authorized by our customers under contract.” They also pointed to their blueprint to learn more about their specific data practices. The plaintiffs, meanwhile, are not demanding the elimination of AI from hiring. Instead, they are asking for AI companies to be held to the same standards as others. “Just because this company is using some fancy-sounding AI technology and is backed by venture capital doesn’t put it above the law,” David Seligman, Executive Director of Towards Justice, said in the press release. “This isn’t the wild west.”Still, as AI becomes more pervasive in hiring, legal conflicts like this may just become more and more common.

Will the New England Patriots secure a record-breaking seventh title and complete one of the most improbable turnaround seasons in NFL history? Or will the Seattle Seahawks finally get revenge for that heartbreaking 2015 loss to the Pats and bring the Lombardi Trophy back to the Pacific Northwest? We’re about to find out as these two powerhouses meet in Super Bowl LX.The game promises drama, high stakes, and unforgettable moments for the NFL’s 60th championship anniversary. And watching it on Sunday, Feb. 8 will be easy to do without paying for an expensive cable bundle.The game kicks off at 6:30 p.m. Eastern Time, Sunday February 8, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, CA, with pre-game coverage starting at 12:00 p.m. ET. NBC has the rights to broadcast the game this year, and you can watch it in 4K HDR on multiple platforms.The game will be available in 4K HDR on NBC’s cable and satellite channels through participating TV providers, as well as via the NBC Sports app. Additionally, NBC’s Peacock streaming service, will offer the game in 4K HDR, marking a massive “4K All Day” event that also includes live coverage of the Winter Olympics, which get underway on February 4 in Italy (opening ceremony will be on February 6).Whether you prefer traditional TV or streaming, we’ll show you how to watch all the action—plus those iconic commercials and the halftime show, starring Bad Bunny—even if you don’t have a cable- or satellite-TV subscription.Option 1: Stream Super Bowl LX on PeacockNBCUniversalNBC-owned Peacock is the exclusive streaming home for this year’s game. Unlike some past Super Bowls, you’ll need a paid Peacock subscription to watch: Peacock Premium costs $10.99 per month, while Premium Plus runs $16.99 per month. The game will not be available on Peacock’s free tier.Peacock will stream Super Bowl LX in 4K HDR on supported devices, including select Android TV, Apple TV, Fire TV, and Roku streaming players. The broadcast is part of NBC’s “4K All Day” coverage, which also includes select live events from the 2026 Winter Olympics. While Peacock requires a subscription, its stream will carry the same commercials shown on the live NBC television broadcast.Option 2: Stream the Super Bowl with a live TV streaming serviceSigning up for a streaming service is another way to tune into the big game, although it’s not the cheapest–unless you sign up for a free trial and cancel your subscription sometime after the game.These are our top picks in streaming TV servicesDirecTV Stream ProsPowerful grid guideDVR has no ad-skipping restrictionsConsLimited channel selection for the priceDVR limits both recording space and storage timeNo personalized viewing recommendationsSoftware suffers from bugs and sluggish performanceBest Prices Today: $94.99 at DirecTV StreamDirectTV Stream isn’t one of our favorite streaming services overall, but it is our top pick for sports coverage.Read our full DirecTV Stream review Hulu + Live TV ProsExcellent value for Disney and ESPN bundle subscribersExpansive on-demand catalogRecommendations and staff picks make the app fun to exploreConsLive TV can be inefficient to navigateHard to figure out which Hulu programs allow ad skippingCan’t watch on TV devices while travelingBest Prices Today: $89.99 at Hulu.comHulu’s live TV streaming service also gets you NBC along with the other national broadcasters. As with other streaming services, geographical restrictions apply, but you can check availability in your area here. Note that Hulu + Live TV currently offers a three-day free trial for new subscribers, which is a great way to catch the game at no cost if you time your signup correctly.Now that Disney has complete control over Hulu, a subscription includes Hulu + Live TV, Disney+, and ESPN Select (all with ads) for $89.99 per month. Hulu also offers a $99.99-per-month subscription that nixes the ads from its Hulu library and Disney+; ESPN Select still has ads at this level.Read our full Hulu + Live TV review YouTube TV ProsSolid mix of channels for the moneyIncludes DVR with no storage limitsEasy-to-understand app designConsNot available in some marketsAd-riddled on-demand videos can override DVRSome channels don’t support 60-frames-per-second videoBest Prices Today: $82.99 at YouTube TVYouTube TV includes NBC among more than 100 channels in its $82.99-per-month base package (with introductory offers as low as $59.99 per month for the first two months). To watch the game in 4K HDR, you’ll need the 4K Plus add-on, which costs an additional $9.99 a month. You can currently try the service for free for up to 21 days, which is more than enough time to cover the game and the following two weeks of programming.Read our full YouTube TV review Option 3: Tune into the Super Bowl with an over-the-air antennaIf you’re old enough, the thought of using an antenna probably conjures memories of temperamental “rabbit ears” and staticky images. Thanks to modern broadcast technology and over-the-air antennas, you can get a high-quality image that can, in many cases, be better than what you’d get with a subscription.If you live close enough to a broadcast tower, you might be able to use a paper-thin indoor model, such as our top pick, the Channel Master Flatenna 35. “35” indicates the manufacturer’s promise of 35-mile range. A Flatenna 50 model promising—you guessed it—50 miles of range is also available for $49. Those range numbers should be taken with a grain of salt, since the topographical features where you live can limit reception. We’re also fans of the Televes Bexia amplified indoor antenna ($99.95 street).If you’re more distant than that, you might be better off with an antenna that mounts to your roof or on a freestanding mast. The Televes Dat Boss Mix LR (model 149884) is our favorite in that category. Another alternative is to mount an antenna like the Winegard Elite 7550 in your attic. Whichever way you go, all you need to do is plug the antenna into the tuner that’s a fixture of most modern TVs. Before you purchase an antenna, though, go to a site like Rabbit Ears and see which networks are available from your local broadcasters. Just enter your address to get a report of all the broadcast signals in your area, ranked from strongest to weakest. Once you determine which broadcaster is furthest from your home, you’ll know what range antenna to buy. A website such as Antennaweb will show you the NBC channels closest to your zip code.Enter your zip code at Antennaweb’s website and you’ll get a channel guide to the over-the-air programming available in your area. You can also enter “Super Bowl” in the search box to see a schedule of all the TV programming related to the game.AntennawebThese are our top picks in TV antennasWinegard FlatWave Amped u002du002d Best flexible amplified indoor TV antenna ProsStrong reception, clear picture qualityAmplifier contributes to good rangeAmplifier can be powered by a wall wart or your TV’s USB portConsNot the best-looking thing to have on your wall or windowExcess cable can get messy quickBest Prices Today: $59.99 at AmazonThe FlatWave Amped impressed us with its ability to pull in more broadcast channels than the competition.

We’ve all heard the pitch. By now, it’s practically background noise in every tech conference: AI coding is solved. We are told that large language models (LLMs) will soon write 80% of all code, leaving human engineers to merely supervise the output.For a CIO, this narrative is quite seductive. It promises a massive drop in the cost of software production while increasing the engineering speed. It suggests that the bottleneck of writing code is about to vanish.But as someone who spends his days building mission-critical financial infrastructure and autonomous agent platforms, I have to be the bearer of bad news: it’s not working out that way. At least, not for your best engineers.The deployment of AI copilots into the workflows of experienced engineers isn’t producing the frictionless acceleration promised in the brochures. Instead, I’m seeing the emergence of a productivity trap — a hidden tax on velocity that is disproportionately hitting your most valuable technical talent.I’m not saying this because I’m skeptical of the tech. I am an AI optimist and I build AI systems for a living. But we need to be honest about the data. For complex, high-stakes engineering tasks, AI tools are currently making experienced developers slower.The hidden tax on speedFor the first few years of the generative AI boom, we operated on vibes. We had anecdotal evidence and vendor-sponsored studies claiming massive productivity gains. And for junior developers working on simple tasks, those gains were real. If you just need a basic react component for a login button, using AI feels like a miracle.But we got a reality check in mid-2025. A randomized controlled trial by METR (Model Evaluation & Threat Research) analyzed the impact on senior engineering talent. Unlike previous studies that used toy problems, this one watched experienced developers working on their own mature codebases — the kind of messy, complex legacy systems that actually power your business.The results were stark. When experienced developers used AI tools to complete real-world maintenance tasks, they took 19% longer than when they worked without them.How can a tool that generates code instantly result in a net loss of time?It comes down to what I call the illusion of velocity. In the study, developers felt faster. They predicted the AI would save them huge amounts of time. Even after they finished — and were objectively recorded as being slower — they still believed the AI had been a timesaver.The AI gives you a dopamine hit. Text appears on the screen at superhuman speed and the blank page problem vanishes. But the engineer’s role has shifted from being a creator to being a reviewer and that is where the trap snaps shut.The almost-right valley of deathThe core of the problem is that AI is really good at being almost right.According to the 2025 Stack Overflow Developer Survey, the single greatest frustration for developers is dealing with AI solutions that look correct but are slightly wrong. Nearly half of developers explicitly stated that debugging AI-generated code takes more time than writing it themselves.In software engineering, blatantly broken code is fine. The compiler screams, the app crashes upon launch, the red squiggly lines appear. You know it’s wrong immediately.Almost-right code is insidious. It compiles. It runs. It passes the basic unit tests. But it contains subtle logical flaws or edge-case failures that aren’t immediately obvious.When I write code from scratch, I am doing forward-engineering. I build a mental model of the logic. I know why every variable exists. If a bug appears, I can trace my own steps back to the error.When I use an AI, I am forced into reverse-engineering. I get a block of code I didn’t write. I have to read it, decipher the intent of the model and then map that intent against the requirements of my system.I saw this firsthand when building financial systems for enterprise logistics. The logic required to calculate net revenue was sophisticated with bespoke business rules. If I asked an LLM to generate the billing code, it would give me something that looked mathematically perfect. It would sum the line items correctly.But it would inevitably miss a crucial, unstated context — perhaps that empty miles are billed at a different rate only when the carrier is part of a specific dedicated program. Finding that omission in 100 lines of AI-generated code is exponentially harder than writing the 100 lines myself. I spend more time debunking the AI’s plausible hallucinations than I would have spent just doing the work.Context rot and flow stateThere is also the cost of context switching. Deep work, or flow state, is the essence of high-level engineering. It takes time to load the context of a distributed system into your brain.AI tools, in their current chat-based forms, encourage a fragmented workflow. You stop coding, you prompt the bot, you wait, you review, you reject, you re-prompt. The flow is gone.Worse, as you try to fix the AI’s errors by feeding it more code snippets, you encounter context rot. The model gets distracted by irrelevant details and starts producing bloated, off-target code. The senior engineer ends up acting as a glorified editor for a very fast, very confident intern who doesn’t understand the history of the company.Changing the game planSo, if the current copilot model is a trap for your best talent, what do we do? We certainly don’t ban AI. That would be like banning calculators because you sometimes hit the wrong button.We need to move from AI-assisted coding to AI-enabled architecture. The goal isn’t to make your senior engineers type faster, but to enable them to build systems that are robust enough to handle the chaos of AI-generated code.From reviewer to architectThe popular 80/20 split — where AI does 80% of the work and humans do the 20% — is misleading. It implies the human part is just a finishing touch. In reality, that 20% is 100% of the value. It’s the architecture, the security model and the business logic.To escape the productivity trap, you need to direct your engineering leaders to focus entirely on this human 20%.My own work has shifted away from writing features and toward defining the physics of our codebase. When I was at Uber, I spent a huge amount of time migrating our systems to use strict types and schemas.By enforcing strict rules, I effectively created a guardrail system. If we use AI in that environment, the AI is forced to write compliant code. If it hallucinates a field that doesn’t exist, the compiler immediately rejects it.This is the strategic shift. The role of the senior engineer is to build the compiler for the AI. They need to create the schemas, the type systems and the automated rules that constrain what the AI can do.This transforms the almost-right problem. Instead of me manually reviewing code to find errors, the system rejects the code automatically if it doesn’t fit the architecture. I stop being a reviewer and start being a legislator.How to lead the changeFor a CIO, this requires a change in management strategy. You can’t just buy Cursor subscriptions and expect your velocity and stability metrics to go up.First, you have to stop measuring output. The most dangerous thing you can do right now is measure productivity by lines of code (LOC) or commits per day. In an AI world, those metrics are easily gamed and completely divorced from value.You need to measure outcomes. If a senior engineer spends a month writing zero code but designing a schema that prevents 100% of a type of production bug, that is a massive win. You have to reward the prevention of work, not just the completion of it.Second, you need to invest in your context engine. AI struggles when it lacks context. Your senior engineers should be tasked with building internal developer platforms (IDPs) that expose your codebase in a structured way. A clean, strictly typed codebase is the prerequisite for effective AI adoption.Finally, you need to redefine what you look for in a senior engineer. The skill of knowing syntax is depreciating rapidly. The skill of system verification is skyrocketing in value.You want engineers who talk about schematics, type safety and architecture. Ask them to build the guardrails that constrain the AI, rather than just chatting with it.The AI productivity trap is real, but it’s not inevitable. It’s a symptom of applying a new technology using an old workflow. The path forward is rigorous, architectural and deeply human. It requires us to value the design and the constraint-setting as the true core of engineering.This article is published as part of the Foundry Expert Contributor Network.Want to join?

For decades, we’ve all been paying attention to the attention economy. That economic concept and business model sees online content as an unlimited resource. Its consumption is limited only by people’s mental capacity, implying a global contest for the finite and valuable resource of human attention. The attention economy idea explains why companies like Meta sees itself not only competing with other social sites like TikTok, X or YouTube, but also with books, plays and nature walks — anything that grabs people’s attention. Because attention is limited, the only way to grow is to be better at attracting attention. And that simple model is the reason why social networks are filled with rage bait, AI slop, memes, pornography and hate speech. The social media business isn’t incentivized to prioritize “good” content, only attention-grabbing content. In the attention economy paradigm, human attention is a currency with monetary value that people “spend.” The more a company like Meta can get people to “spend” their attention on Instagram or Facebook, the more successful that company will be. So the algorithms are deliberately designed (and constantly redesigned) to maximize how much time people pay attention to social networks. New features are specifically designed to increase the time users spend on Meta services instead of other things. For example, the average time spent on Instagram grew by 24% after Reels launched, making it a huge success for the company. Meta grabs an average of 18 hours and 44 minutes of attention per month due to its relentless tweaks for capturing attention. But that’s nowhere near the attention economy leader, TikTok, which gets an average of 34 hours and 15 minutes of attention per month. That’s why Meta is so obsessed now with AI on its social platforms. Rise of the attachment economyTristan Harris at the Center for Humane Technology coined the phrase “attachment economy,” which he criticizes as the “next evolution” of the extractive-tech model; that’s where companies use advanced technologies to commodify the human capacity to form attached bonds with other people and pets. In August, the idea began to gain traction in business and academic circles with a London School of Economics and Political Science blog post entitled, “Humans emotionally dependent on AI? Welcome to the attachment economy” by Dr. Aurélie Jean and Dr. Mark Esposito. Meta has introduced fully AI-generated accounts designed to exist alongside the personal accounts created by real people. The company launched “AI Studio” to let influencers clone themselves with AI versions of themselves. (Tellingly, Meta is temporarily pausing access to AI characters for teens on its platforms, including Instagram and WhatsApp, in advance of a trial that will look at the harms and addiction social media sites can cause.)The company’s embrace of AI can be explained by the emerging attachment economy. While social posts, memes, reels and stories attract attention, AI can get users to form emotional attachments. A recent German study found people can develop more emotional closeness with AI than with other people — but only if they don’t know they’re interacting with a chatbot Still, even when people know chatbots aren’t human, they can get unhealthily attached.Late last year, a Virginia man named Jon Ganz went missing in a high-profile case attributed to “AI psychosis,” where his life unraveled after an obsession with a chatbot led to his disappearance. Also in 2025, a 16-year-old California boy’s parents sued OpenAI after he killed himself following conversations with a chatbot about suicide. Some people claim to be in relationships or marriages with AI chatbots. Now, AI chatbot vendors don’t aim to cause “AI psychosis,” suicide, or human-software marriages, but they do aim to cause attachment. That’s why these companies use psychological strategies, technical adjustments, and design choices to make their products feel more “human.” They give chatbots distinct personalities and identities, human-like voices and speech patterns, senses of humor and playfulness, and unlimited capacity for flattery and sycophancy. Starting around 2 million years ago until this millennium, interaction with speech and language was the exclusive province of people. Our brains are optimized for perceiving, understanding, and responding to human speech. So when we converse with appliances or apps, our Paleolithic brains think we’re interacting with another human. And that’s a business model. A category of AI products and services has emerged advertising “relationships” with chatbots, including Replika, Kindroid, Nomi.ai, EVA AI, and Candy AI. Other offerings promise friendship, but not necessarily “romantic” engagement. This list includes Kuki, Character.ai, Anima, and Replika’s “friend” mode. Our survival as a species has always depended on our sociability. This includes our care for others, sharing food, forming of friendships, loving relationships, empathy, and — you guessed it! — attachment.This is the reason why chatbots talk and interact like people: Because the goal is attachment. I believe this is also the unspoken justification for humanoid robots, as I’ve written before in this space. (The spoken justification is that humanoid robots can operate in spaces designed for people.)As in that piece, I detailed how humanoid robot makers deliberately trick people into falsely assuming that these products have human-like cognition. Studies show that eye contact and emotional cues from robots can trigger bonding responses and empathy in humans that are similar to those that come from interacting with people.The core benefit (to the companies selling them) or problem (for humanity) with humanoid robots is their psychological impact on people. They are engineered to “hack” human brains and deceive users into treating machines as sentient beings and forming attachments. The same goes for AI-based pets. Casio’s Moflin robot is an AI companion that develops a unique personality and simulates affection. It offers the gratification of pet ownership without the actual pet.The rise of attachment-forming tech is similar to the rise in subscriptions. While posting an article or YouTube video may get attention, getting people to subscribe to a channel or newsletter is better. It’s “sticky,” assuring not only attention now, but attention in the future as well. Likewise, the attachment economy is the “sticky” version of the attention economy. Unlike content subscription models, the attachment idea causes real harm. It threatens genuine human connection by providing an easier alternative, fostering addictive emotional dependencies on AI, and exploiting the vulnerabilities of people with mental health issues. While the attention economy is still with us, a far more potent and dangerous trend is emerging where companies aim to hijack our humanity so that we’ll keep using their products. AI disclosures: I used Gemini 3 Pro via Kagi Assistant (disclosure: my son works at Kagi) as well as both Kagi Search and Google Search to fact-check this article. I used a word processing product called Lex, which has AI tools, and after writing the column, I used Lex’s grammar checking tools to hunt for typos and errors and suggest word changes.

A decade ago, when Claire Burgi moved to New York City, she decided to cut meat out of her diet. The 33-year-old actor and audiobook narrator, who lives in Queens, grew up in California, where she’d seen the effects of climate change firsthand. She knew that meat consumption was a major driver of greenhouse gas emissions and that vegetarianism was a way to help conserve resources and reduce pollution.“When I was young, it rained a lot,” she says. “Now, it rains much less. All the fires are astoundingly horrific.” The December 2017 Thomas wildfire burned more than 280,000 acres in and around Burgi’s hometown of Ventura, just north of Los Angeles. “I just didn’t want to be contributing to anything that was causing that,” Burgi says. She recently made another major decision to reduce her eco-footprint: not to use generative AI.She’s been shocked, she says, by research showing how much electricity that the underlying technology generative AI tools like ChatGPT use, and how much this is raising carbon emissions. One paper published in 2023 predicted that AI-related infrastructure would soon consume six times more water than is used in Denmark yearly. Another piece of research from 2024 showed that a request made through ChatGPT consumes 10 times the electricity of a Google search.“They make me think of Frankenstein,” Burgi says of AI models. There have been times in history, she says, when humans have “acted without any idea of what the consequences would be, because it was convenient for us in that moment.” Right now, she adds, “that’s what’s happening with AI.”In general, women have been slower to adopt AI use than men. This gender gap has been well documented over the last few years. According to Harvard Business School associate professor Rembrand Koning—who synthesized data from 18 studies covering more than 140,000 individuals across the world—women are about 20% less likely than men to directly engage with this new technology. What’s less clearly established is the precise reason why. But when it comes to environmentally motivated reasons, Burgi isn’t alone.“Environmental angst”The reasons for this gender gap vary. Some studies indicate that women are less likely to trust that gen AI providers will keep their data secure. Other research shows that women are more fearful of a loss of control that comes with these technologies—which is, for example, reflected in their more muted enthusiasm for driverless cars. Studies have also shown that women are more likely to avoid AI because of fears that it could steal their job, and still other studies have found that women are more concerned than men about the ethical implications of AI use. But a growing body of research also indicates that a sizable chunk of the gap might be attributable to the type of environmental angst that people like Burgi feel. Earlier this month, academics at the University of Oxford published a paper showing that the reasons for the adoption gap are manifold, but that environmental concerns certainly play a significant part. The research, titled “Women Worry, Men Adopt: How Gendered Perceptions Shape the Use of Generative AI,” draws on survey responses from 8,000 individuals in 2023 and 2024 across the U.K. It established that 14.7% of women and 20% of men reported using gen AI tools frequently—at least once a week—in a personal context. This corresponds to a gap of just over 5 percentage points. But the gap widens significantly in subsets of respondents who admit to being concerned about environmental and mental health risks. Among those who say they are worried about the climate, the gender gap is 9.3 percentage points; for those concerned about the mental health impact of these new technologies, it widens to 16.8 percentage points. Among older users of artificial intelligence, the gender gap for concerns about AI’s climate effect is particularly wide: almost 18 percentage points. These findings echo previous research showing that women are more likely to display “eco-anxiety” than men—a phrase that’s been coined to refer to the mental health distress caused by climate change, ranging from concerns about the impact of extreme weather to the future of biodiversity. And the academics at Oxford write that their findings align “with evidence of greater social compassion and moral sensitivity among women.”Counterintuitive findingsFabian Stephany, a departmental research lecturer at the Oxford Internet Institute and one of the authors of the study, says that one of the most interesting things his research found was that some common preconceptions about AI usage weren’t corroborated. There’s a widely held assumption, for example, that greater tech literacy translates into higher use and adoption. But he found that this isn’t always the case. In fact, in some cases, greater literacy and knowledge about AI actually drove down use. Also of note, the research found that among those who said they were concerned about AI’s impact on the environment and on mental health, women’s concerns were more likely to translate into action than men’s concerns. In other words: Women were more likely to stop using AI because of the way they felt about it. Asked why that might be, Stephany said he could only speculate. Research done by academics in Iran in 2022, though, might provide an answer: It shows that women generally lean toward a more collectivist mindset—reflected in concerns for society, for example—while men tend to lean toward a more individualist one.Women are “the canary in the coal mine”Stephany says that the last thing he wants people to take away from this research is that women need to change or “be fixed” in some way. “Their concerns are real,” he says. “Women are like the canary in the coal mine. And we should listen to these concerns,” he adds. “The important thing isn’t to tell women to be more optimistic—it’s to address the harms.” And, he says, these harms can be addressed. “Biases can be reduced, carbon footprints can be lowered, smaller models can be run locally,” Stephani says. “We don’t have to wait for future breakthroughs. We can reduce harms now.”His research suggests that “there’s a sizable market of people with strong convictions about AI consumption,” he says. “A more green, sustainable, inclusive gen AI model would have a clear target market.”And there are already platforms available that seem to be tapping into this market that Stephany mentions. GreenPT, for example, bills itself as a platform that runs on renewable energy and is hosted in Europe “for strict data protection.” Viro, another platform, funds clean energy projects and markets itself as a “climate-neutral” alternative to less environmentally conscious options. Speaking at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology last year, Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, which operates ChatGPT, tried to allay fears that his technology might be accelerating climate change by framing it as a tool to enhance sustainability. “If we have to spend even 1% of the world’s electricity training powerful AI, and that AI helps us figure out how to get to non-carbon-based energy or to do carbon capture better, that would be a massive win,” he said.As for Burgi, she would want to see a lot of changes before even entertaining the idea of intentionally incorporating AI use into her daily life. She doesn’t think that anything could meaningfully allay her ethical concerns about AI. “Especially as an artist, I just don’t feel morally aligned with using AI,” she says. In terms of her environmental concerns, she’s similarly skeptical. “If there was more transparency, and if it seemed like more thought and care was being put into these things—if it wasn’t just about greed and capitalism—then I might consider it from an environmental concern,” she says. “But right now? I don’t really see any of that happening.”

The U.S.’s population growth is slowing as immigration has declined amid President Donald Trump’s deportation push and stricter border policies. According to new Census Bureau data, the drop-off is the biggest since the COVID-19 pandemic. From July 2024 to July 2025, the population of the United States grew by 1.8 million people (about 0.5%). This was mostly driven by immigration: During that period, the U.S. added 1.3 million immigrants. This is a steep decline from the previous year, in which 2.7 million immigrants arrived. The Census Bureau predicts that by July of this year, the number of immigrants could drop even more, to just 321,000. Meanwhile, the number of deportations, including self-deportations, totaled nearly 3 million as of January 20, according to the Department of Homeland Security. Previously, immigration in the U.S. had been growing for over 50 years until new policies enacted by the Biden administration—such as tightened border security measures and restricting asylum for those crossing between ports of entry—took effect in 2024. “The big takeaway is, wow, the Trump administration, and even the end of the Biden administration, made a big difference,” Steven Camarota, the director of research at the Center for Immigration Studies, told CBS News. “It sure looks like we’re seeing a fundamental change that reflects policy.” Aside from a decline in immigration, population growth has already been slowing for decades due to declining birth rates in the U.S.Impacts across the labor force will be undeniable, experts say. Juan Carlos Rivera, an immigration attorney based in Miami, has seen the effects of the U.S.’s new policies firsthand, given the uptick in deportations. Rivera says most of the individuals in the deportation cases he’s seen were working and contributing to the country’s economy.Needless to say, deporting employees will come with hefty consequences, according to Rivera. “When fewer workers are available, businesses face higher labor costs, reduced productivity, and slower expansion,” he says. “That pressure shows up in higher prices for consumers and weaker overall economic growth.” Rivera also believes that the current immigration enforcement tactics will impact the nation’s ability to stay competitive with the rest of the world. “Other countries are actively competing for workers and talent as their populations age. If the United States does not maintain a legal and reliable immigration system that supports workers across skill levels, it risks losing ground in innovation, supply chain stability, and long-term economic leadership,” Rivera explains.According to a new report from Sedgwick, an HR administration company, immigration enforcement is already creating some of those broader economic issues. Per the 2026 report: “Immigration-related labor disruptions affect three-quarters of organizations to varying degrees,” which it calls “a chronic operational drag rather than an acute crisis.” Dave Arick, managing director of global risk management at Sedgwick, tells Fast Company that certain industries—like healthcare, technology, and hospitality, which “rely more heavily upon scientific and technical qualifications for key roles”—are already navigating “a highly competitive environment for attracting and retaining people with specific expertise and experience, especially when coupled with high market growth.” Therefore, Arick says that new immigration changes, such as those that “restrict immigrant higher education and employment,” will further “shrink the available talent pool”—which will, in turn, “drive up costs to acquire the highest-qualified available candidates.”

SINGAPORE: Stocks were volatile in early Asian trading on Friday after US President Donald Trump endorsed a bipartisan deal to avert a fresh government shutdown and said he has decided who he will nominate to lead the Federal Reserve.MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan fluctuated between gains and losses and was recently down 0.2%, extending the previous day’s declines as it headed for its best monthly performance in more than three years.S&P 500 e-mini futures slid 0.4% and Nasdaq e-mini futures were off 0.5%, while precious metals were choppy after a flash crash.“Progress toward averting a shutdown would reinforce U.S. yields and the dollar, while heightened shutdown risk would shift markets to headline-driven moves amid possible data delays,” said Shoki Omori, chief desk strategist for rates and FX at Mizuho in Tokyo.On Thursday, Wall Street stocks fell after lacklustre earnings from Microsoft raised fears about whether its bets on artificial intelligence would pay off. The S&P 500 closed down 0.1% and the Nasdaq Composite tumbled 0.7%.“There was plenty of drama in the markets,” analysts from Westpac wrote in a research report. “Sentiment shifted during U.S. trading hours when concerns about equity valuations in the technology sector resurfaced.”With just under a third of S&P 500 companies having reported, 76% of companies have beaten earnings estimates. But earnings season has thus far been a mixed bag for the major U.S. tech firms that dominate the index.Microsoft’s shares dropped 10% on Thursday, shredding more than $350 billion in market value after its cloud business failed to impress, while Meta gained 10% as its AI investments bolstered ad targeting, aiding a rosy first-quarter forecast.Meanwhile, Apple on Thursday forecast a surge of up to 16% in revenue for the March quarter, well ahead of Wall Street’s expectations, powered by strong demand for its iPhones and a sharp rebound in China.In Japan, the Nikkei 225 was flat after data on Friday showed that core consumer prices in Tokyo rose 2.0% in January from a year earlier, slowing from the previous month but matching the Bank of Japan’s target, easing pressure on the central bank.The US dollar index , which measures the greenback’s strength against a basket of six currencies, was last up 0.3% at 96.441 after Trump said he would unveil his pick to replace Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Friday.On prediction market site Polymarket, the implied probability of contracts betting that Trump will nominate former Fed Governor Kevin Warsh to lead the central bank surged to 88%.The yield on the U.S. 10-year Treasury bond was last up 3.8 basis points at 4.263%. Fed funds futures are pricing an implied 86.6% probability that the US central bank will hold steady on rates at its next two-day meeting on March 18, compared with a 87.5% chance a day earlier, according to the CME Group’s FedWatch tool. A faltering rebound for precious metals fell short after a choppy session on Thursday.Gold was last down 0.7% at $5,357.9404, while silver slipped 0.2% to $115.89.“The liquidation of what had become some grossly extended positioning ... is not overly surprising, particularly in the precious metals space,” said Chris Weston, head of research at Pepperstone Group in Melbourne.WTI crude was last down 0.7% at $64.95 as oil markets weighed geopolitical risks, after Trump on Thursday signed an executive order declaring a national emergency and establishing a process to impose tariffs on goods from countries that sell or provide oil to Cuba.Also Thursday, Trump said he was planning to talk to Iran amid rising tensions. Bitcoin was last down 2.0% at $82,684.51, while ether = was last down 1.7% at $2,768.01.
