Hallucinations have commonly been considered a problem for generative AI, with chatbots such as ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini prone to producing 'confidently incorrect' answers in response to queries. This can pose a serious problem for users. There are several cases of lawyers, for example, citing non-existent cases as precedent or presenting the wrong conclusions and outcomes from cases that really do exist. Unfortunately for said lawyers, we only know about these instances because they're embarrassingly public, but it's an experience all users will have had at some point.

Hardly any corner of the economy is untouched by jobs cuts and slowdown: Employment in all goods-producing industries slumped in August, with the deepest losses coming from manufacturing and mining.

Let's be real-it's not easy. Scaling a manufacturing company is messy, unpredictable, and often brutal. My job as CEO is not to hide the chaos, it's to cut through it and get to the finish line. We've built systems, habits, and a culture that make the hard things manageable. From the outside that might look like ease. But every single day there is grit.

The ONS said the economy grew by 0.2 per cent on a rolling three-month basis, a measure it will now prioritise to provide a clearer picture of performance given the volatility of monthly data. July's weakness was driven by a 0.9 per cent fall in production, including a 1.3 per cent decline in manufacturing, pushing industrial output to its lowest level since January.

Reality check: At the end of July Lutnick posted to X that "the Trump Economy has officially arrived," citing a strong GDP report.

The analyst's Private network deployment tracker contained three defining characteristics of a private network: dedicated resources, including network infrastructure, platform and/or spectrum which may not be physically dedicated but can be logically dedicated such as in network slicing; dedicated user groups/SIMs where access to the network is controlled and limited to a group of certain users who may have logically dedicated SIMs, which may be virtual; and customised KPIs where the network is designed and customised to meet use case requirements that can't be met by best-effort public networks.

JCB has warned it could lose "hundreds of millions of pounds" after the US government unexpectedly extended tariffs on steel and aluminium to cover finished goods, dealing a blow to one of Britain's best-known engineering firms. The Trump administration confirmed on Monday that the 25 per cent tariffs already applied to components would now include all machines exported to the US containing steel or aluminium. The move is expected to hit every one of the 30,000 diggers and construction vehicles JCB ships across the Atlantic each year.

The $15 million infusion into the St. Louis Brewery revitalizes the manufacturing ecosystem in Missouri, modernizing supply chain infrastructure for efficiency and job creation.

BDO's Optimism Index rose to 91.96 in July, up from 91.58 in June, driven by a strong rebound in manufacturing optimism, which rose sharply from 93.74 to 96.50.

The Big Beautiful Bill (BBB) assures tax cuts that stimulate investment, job creation, and GDP growth, leading to unprecedented economic booms from fully deductible depreciation for buildings, equipment, and research.

President Trump announced a 100 percent import tariff on chips but companies manufacturing in the US can qualify for exemptions. Companies not fulfilling production promises will face full tariffs retroactively.
