Infosys’ newly announced AI Agent for the energy sector aims to convert the industry’s sprawling, heterogeneous operational data — from well logs and SCADA telemetry to downhole images and compliance PDFs — into real‑time, conversational guidance for field crews and control‑room teams, packaging...
Microsoft has begun silently deploying three new Microsoft 365 “companion” apps — People, Files, and Calendar — to Windows 11 business devices that run Microsoft 365, and the apps are being installed and pinned to the taskbar by default unless administrators opt out through the Microsoft 365...
Microsoft is quietly rolling a practical reliability feature into the Windows 11 Insider preview that will prompt users to run a fast Windows Memory Diagnostic after an unexpected restart (bugcheck), scheduling a short scan at the next reboot to help triage memory corruption quickly and reduce...

Microsoft has started delivering Windows 11 version 25H2 to the broad user base, but this “feature release” is more accurately a fast, low-friction enablement package that flips on a year’s worth of AI integrations, stability work and manageability improvements already staged in the 24H2...
Microsoft has shifted the Microsoft Store's app‑update control from a permanent on/off toggle to a pause‑only model: turning "Update apps automatically" off now opens a dialog asking you to pause updates for a fixed period of 1–5 weeks rather than disabling automatic updates forever. This change...

Microsoft has flipped the switch: the Windows 11 2025 Update — formally Windows 11, version 25H2 — is now being offered broadly to eligible devices, but for most users it’s an evolutionary release rather than a dramatic overhaul. Background / Overview

Microsoft’s Windows engineering teams have been reunified under a single organizational umbrella and, in the same breath, a controversial report has surfaced claiming Microsoft 365 Copilot has only about 8 million paying subscribers — developments that together cast a long shadow over...
Microsoft’s 2025 Windows 11 feature update — version 25H2 — arrives as a careful, operationally minded release rather than a headline-grabbing rework: it’s an enablement package that flips on features already staged in the 24H2 servicing stream, removes a few long‑deprecated tools, and resets...
OpenAI has pushed ChatGPT further into the workplace this week with a trio of work‑focused updates — shared projects, an expanded slate of connectors to pull data from popular apps, and tightened security and compliance controls — moves aimed at making the assistant a persistent, team-aware...
Microsoft's direction is clear: there won't be a standalone "AI browser" from Redmond — instead, Copilot is being folded deeper into Microsoft Edge, turning the browser into an AI-first, agentic assistant that acts on context, orchestrates multi-step tasks, and tightly integrates with Microsoft...
