Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, recently stated that in the future, English will be the most powerful and effective programming language for communicating with machines. According to Huang, traditional coding may soon become outdated as users will no longer need to write code. Instead, they will simply tell systems what they need, and machines will understand and execute the instructions. Huang, who is visiting India to participate in the India AI Impact Summit 2026, emphasized that languages like C++ and Python will no longer define the future of programming. “The coder is becoming outdated,” he said. “In the future, people won’t write code on a computer. They will communicate their requirements directly to the system. If the system delivers an incorrect result, users won’t debug it—they ...

Jensen Huang, CEO of global tech giant NVIDIA, has made a striking prediction: English will become the most powerful programming language of the future, surpassing traditional coding languages like C++ and Python. According to Huang, coders may soon become “outdated,” as future systems will respond directly to natural language commands instead of written code. AI and the Future of CodingHuang is set to visit India for the India AI Impact Summit 2026, where he will share insights on artificial intelligence and its evolving role. He explained that in the future, people will no longer write code manually. Instead, they will communicate with systems in English, telling them what they need. If the system fails to deliver the correct result, users won’t debug it manually—they will simply inst...

Instagram is set to roll out a new AI-powered feature that will allow users to digitally insert their own faces into AI-generated photos and videos. Reports suggest that the social media giant, owned by Meta, is developing a “Face Swap” tool, which could compete with OpenAI’s Sora platform in the personalized content space. Personalized “Likeness” CreationAccording to tech tipster Alessandro Paluzzi, who shared details via X (formerly Twitter), the upcoming Instagram tool focuses on creating a personalized “likeness” rather than just applying standard image filters. While Instagram has not officially confirmed the launch, leaked screenshots indicate that the company has been working on the feature for some time. How the Face Swap Tool Will WorkThe feature, currently referred to as th...

A cutting-edge AI system, GPT-5, has made the production of protein—a critical component in medicine, research, and industry—far more affordable. This breakthrough has the potential to reduce costs for everything from insulin and cancer drugs to COVID-19 tests, laboratory research, agricultural enzymes, and even household detergents. Making Protein CheaperTraditionally, producing protein requires cultivating living cells, a process that is both time-consuming and expensive. GPT-5, in collaboration with Ginkgo Bioworks, has optimized a cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) technique, cutting overall protein production costs by up to 40% and lowering the cost of chemicals used by 57%. Instead of growing live cells, the CFPS method uses protein-producing machinery directly. GPT-5 analyzed ...

Following its recent ban on Telegram, Russia has now blocked popular American social media platforms, including WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. Reports indicate that Russian citizens can no longer access these services as the government pushes users toward state-controlled platforms. Government Move for “Sovereign Internet”The Roskomnadzor, Russia’s regulatory authority, has removed the domains of these platforms from the national DNS system, making access impossible. This step is part of the country’s “Sovereign Internet” law, which mandates all internet service providers in Russia to operate through the national DNS system under government oversight. Scope of the BanThe restrictions are not limited to social media. Several international media outlets have also been bloc...

At the World Health Expo (WHX) 2026 in Dubai, researchers have announced a groundbreaking study to test a smartwatch capable of assessing diabetes risk. The study will involve 150 participants, including healthy volunteers, pre-diabetes patients, and known diabetes patients, using the Huawei Watch GT 6 Pro to determine how accurately it can detect elevated blood glucose levels. Why This MattersMillions of people worldwide are unaware they are at risk of diabetes. Early detection is crucial to prevent complications and manage the disease effectively. The new smartwatch technology aims to provide a non-invasive, convenient way to alert users to potential blood sugar issues, prompting timely medical consultation. The StudyThe trial, conducted under Dubai Health at Mohammed Bin Rashid Un...

While AI platforms like ChatGPT and Google Gemini are widely known, India now has its own homegrown AI: Sarvam AI.

Unlike AI models that primarily rely on English, Sarvam AI provides localized intelligence, earning it the reputation of being “India’s own AI.” Its speech model, Bulbul V3, has recently attracted attention for its natural voice capabilities, rivaling platforms like ChatGPT and Gemini. How to Use Sarva...

One day, my refrigerator started making a loud noise that could be heard across the room. I immediately called my family technician, Shailendra Sharma, who has been running an AC and fridge service center for over 20 years. Instead of suggesting costly repairs, he recommended a few simple checks and adjustments—and within minutes, the noise stopped without spending a single rupee. Why Fridges Make NoiseA low humming or whirring sound is normal in refrigerators. However, if the noise becomes loud enough to travel from one room to another, it is a sign that something is off. Mechanic’s Five Simple Tips to Silence Your Fridge Check the Fridge LevelUneven floors can cause a fridge to wobble, making the compressor louder than usual.

Among India’s top smartphone brands—Samsung, Vivo, and Oppo—Samsung leads in providing long-term software support, keeping devices “new” for years. Why Software Updates MatterExperts recommend choosing a phone that receives at least five years of software and security updates. Without regular updates, devices are more vulnerable to hacking, cybercrime, and performance issues. Vivo SmartphonesVivo, India’s largest smartphone brand according to Counterpoint and IDC, offers mid-range to premium devices. The Vivo X300 series receives five ...

The Russian government has imposed restrictions on the popular messaging app Telegram, citing national security concerns. Authorities allege that the platform has become a hub for fraudulent and terrorist activities. Telegram founder Pavel Durov has strongly denied these allegations and condemned the government’s decision. Government Cites Security ReasonsRussia’s communications regulator, Roskomnadzor, announced the ban on Telegram, stating that it is necessary to protect citizens. Reports indicate that President Vladimir Putin took the step after Telegram refused to remove content that the government classified as criminal or terrorist.
