Google is introducing a new Gemini AI feature to the Google Maps app on Thursday called Ask Maps. Described as a “conversational experience,” the feature allows users to interact naturally with the app — asking follow-up questions, rephrasing queries and exploring new prompts — similar to Gemini for Home devices. While Google Maps has long offered route-based voice navigation, Ask Maps goes much deeper to answer questions about trip details and the surrounding area. In one case, Google suggests using Ask Maps to find a nearby charging station if your phone’s battery is dying. In another, Ask Maps can be used to find a well-lit tennis court for…
by Kandiss Edwards March 12, 2026 The Georgia race is competitive as the state will replace term-limited Gov. Brian Kemp. Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr lobbied the Black vote, highlighting public safety and economic opportunity as central themes in his campaign for governor. Carr, a Republican who has served as attorney general since 2016, is one of several candidates competing in the 2026 race. The Georgia race is competitive as the state will replace term-limited Gov. Brian Kemp. The nominee is reaching out to multiple local and Black outlets, and his message is clear: forget social issues, focus on the…
Despite the dual shocks of the “Black Saturday” geopolitical escalation in Iran two weeks ago, combined with a disappointing United States Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) print showing the loss of 92,000 jobs, the $60,000–$64,000 floor for bitcoin has demonstrated unexpected resilience. Oil prices moving nearly 80 percent higher since then will likely play a role in the future Consumer Price Index (CPI) readings, given that energy accounts for approximately 9 percent of the final CPI calculation. Such inflationary pressure implies there will be headwinds for all risk assets. For bitcoin, however, two forces are currently at play. The first is the…

Autonomous AI systems force architects into an uncomfortable question that cannot be avoided much longer: Does every decision need to be governed synchronously to be safe?At first glance, the answer appears obvious. If AI systems reason, retrieve information, and act autonomously, then surely every step should pass through a control plane to ensure correctness, compliance, and safety. Anything less feels irresponsible. But that intuition leads directly to architectures that collapse under their own weight.As AI systems scale beyond isolated pilots into continuously operating multi-agent environments, universal mediation becomes not just expensive but structurally incompatible with autonomy itself. The challenge is…
This story appears in the March 2026 issue of Entrepreneur. Subscribe » When I cofounded a water company in 2017, I wasn’t trying to reinvent water. I was just trying to build on a simple belief: People are inherently good. If you give them a clear way to act on that goodness, I believe they will. That’s why we have a 1:1 model: For every bottle sold, we provide clean water to someone in need. One day, we heard from a youth basketball coach. He wanted to teach his kids that their choices matter — even small ones, like which…

Kalshi’s Brazil prediction market launch lands in a country already fighting a betting addiction crisis
Kalshi’s first move outside the United States is not London, not Singapore, not any of the financial centers that have spent years building crypto-friendly regulatory frameworks.It is Brazil, through XP International and its brokerage arm, Clear, offering prediction markets to Brazilian investors as a “new asset class” anchored at launch to economic events such as inflation prints and interest rate decisions.The company frames the product as a federally regulated derivative rather than a bet.Brazil’s government frames what it is already dealing with as a public health emergency.Both things can be true. The tension between them is the story.What Kalshi and…
Worried that your latest ask to a cloud-based AI reveals a bit too much about you? Want to know your genetic risk of disease without revealing it to the services that compute the answer?There is a way to do computing on encrypted data without ever having it decrypted. It’s called fully homomorphic encryption, or FHE. But there’s a rather large catch. It can take thousands—even tens of thousands—of times longer to compute on today’s CPUs and GPUs than simply working with the decrypted data.So universities, startups, and at least one processor giant have been working on specialized chips that could…
