Impli reveals the exact APEX method professionals use to optimize AI prompts. The article shows the complete system specification—from analyzing requests to executing optimized prompts that work across all platforms.
Web scraping has quietly become the backbone of AI training data. But legal gray areas and sophisticated anti-blocking measures make success tricky. This guide reveals what works in 2025.
Sean Grove from OpenAI says coding is dead. Instead of writing code, developers should write specifications that generate software. AWS just launched Kiro to make this real, while GeneXus claims they've done it for 35 years
Wall Street's love affair with tech stocks turned sour this week. The market darlings known as the Magnificent Seven tumbled hard, with Tesla leading the descent at a 10% drop.
Nvidia, the AI chip champion, fell 7%, while Apple shed over $533 billion in market value - roughly equivalent to erasing a company the size of Tesla. The carnage spread beyond the tech titans.
Semiconductor stocks crumbled as investors digested Trump's harsh tariffs on chip-making hubs. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., the world's largest chip maker, plunged 10%. Even crypto felt the pain, with Bitcoin dropping below $78,000 - a stark reversal for the "first Bitcoin president's" signature achievement.
Trump remained unmoved by the market chaos. "Sometimes you have to take medicine to fix something," he told reporters, displaying the bedside manner of a medieval barber. Meanwhile, Wall Street veterans broke their silence. Bill Ackman warned of "economic nuclear winter," while JPMorgan's Jamie Dimon cautioned against America going it alone.
Corporate America scrambled to respond. Car companies halted shipments, trade groups warned of price hikes, and tech firms watched their AI dreams get more expensive by the day. The semiconductor industry, caught between U.S. demands and Asian manufacturing realities, faces particularly thorny decisions.
Global markets showed no signs of recovery Monday. European chip makers joined the slide, with ASML and STMicroelectronics dropping over 3%. In Asia, markets bled red as investors priced in a new era of trade barriers.
Trump's team keeps listening to concerns from financial executives, but the channels aren't as open as during his first term. Some analysts still hope for deals to reduce tariffs, while others argue this market correction was overdue.

Trump's new AI plan promises deregulation for infrastructure but demands political neutrality from AI models. Companies seeking federal contracts must prove their systems aren't biased—a move that could slow US progress while China races ahead.
Washington blinked first. After trying to choke China's AI ambitions with chip bans, the U.S. reversed course in July 2025. The reason? Beijing's $98 billion AI bet was working—Chinese startups were matching Silicon Valley with a fraction of the resources.
Microsoft used Chinese engineers to maintain Pentagon's most sensitive systems for nearly a decade. Top Defense officials had no idea. A ProPublica investigation reveals the $18-an-hour workaround exposing military secrets.
Trump reverses China chip ban after Nvidia CEO's White House visit. The $15 billion policy flip shows economic interests beating security concerns in the AI race with Beijing.
