Gemini in Google Sheets is about to become more powerful. The AI agent can now use Python code to generate insights and charts about your data.

This AI-driven approach goes beyond traditional voice analysis methods by detecting nuanced vocal characteristics imperceptible to the human ear. The machine learning models use complex algorithms to analyze numerical embeddings of audio segments, creating a more sophisticated assessment of a speaker's mental state.

Chinese startup DeepSeek has been taking the AI industry by storm with a new chatbot rivaling ChatGPT and Gemini that uses a fraction of the power, time, and money to train and operate.

While traditional data science practices have paved the way for critical insights and informed decision-making, AI has propelled the discipline into a new era of unprecedented speed, scale and precision. It changed the rules of the game, redefining how organizations harness data.

Quantum computing has been on the horizon for what feels like decades. But with the explosion of artificial intelligence (AI) over the past year or so, the quantum computing future could be upon us. In 2025, there are several stocks that could benefit. Some are big tech businesses; others are specialty start-ups focused on a particular niche.

DeepSeek stunned the tech world with the release of its R1 "reasoning" model, matching or exceeding OpenAI's reasoning model for a fraction of the cost.

Researchers are testing how well the open model can perform scientific tasks — in topics from mathematics to cognitive neuroscience.

DeepSeek’s ChatGPT competitor quickly soared to the top of the App Store, and the company is disrupting financial markets, with shares of Nvidia dipping 17 percent to cut nearly $600 billion from its market cap on January 27th, which CNBC said is the biggest single-day drop in US history.
