Gemini's data-analyzing abilities aren't as good as Google claims

In press briefings and demos, Google has repeatedly claimed that the models can accomplish previously impossible tasks thanks to their "long context," like summarizing multiple hundred-page documents or searching across scenes in film footage. Two separate studies investigated how well Google's Gemini models and others make sense out of an enormous amount of data — think "War and Peace"-length works.

SAP, and Oracle, and IBM, oh my! 'Cloud and AI' drive legacy software firms to record valuations
There's something of a trend around legacy software firms and their soaring valuations: Companies founded in dinosaur times are on a tear, evidenced this week with SAP's shares topping $200 for the first time. The Germany-based enterprise software provider was valued at $92 billion two years ago, and $156 billion 12 months back, meaning its market cap has grown more than 50% in the past year alone. CEO Christian Klein has overseen SAP's turnaround since 2020, focusing on helping customers transition to the cloud while striking useful partnerships with hyperscalers such as Google and Nvidia along the way.

IRS finalizes new regulations for crypto tax reporting
Crypto platforms will need to report transactions to the Internal Revenue Service, starting in 2026.
