Many couples come to therapy expecting to “practice trust” in the office. Some ask where is some sort of “confidence-building haven”? But that’s not the case. As a psychotherapist and author of 13 Things Emotionally Strong Couples Don’t Do, I’ve met countless couples who want to build deeper trust. Some of them have experienced a breakdown in trust, while others are actively seeking intimacy.In any case, trust is not built by dramatic matches or one-off events. It develops by showing up to each other again and again in small but meaningful ways. And weekends are a great time to participate…

Big tech companies and emerging startups want to use generative AI to build software and hardware for kids. Many of these experiences are limited to text or audio, which children may not find appealing. Three former Google employees hope to overcome that hurdle with Sparkli, an interactive app powered by generative AI. Sparkli was founded last year by Lax Poojary, Lucie Marchand, and Myn Kang. As parents, Poojary and Kang were unable to satisfy their children’s curiosity or provide engaging answers to their questions. “Understandably, kids are very curious, and my son asked me questions about how cars work and…

The United States, Russia, and Ukraine rarely agree on anything. But as delegations from both countries met in Abu Dhabi for the first trilateral meeting since Russia began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, they appeared to have come to the same conclusion: Only one issue remained to be resolved. At issue is territory, the eastern region of Ukraine known as Donbass. And based on their comments at the meeting, the issue is unlikely to go away. “Everything is a question of the east of our country, everything is a question of land,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said, pointing to Russia’s…

Depending on how you look at it, Gen Z is the group hardest hit by the affordability crisis. Even though young people this age are more likely than their parents to earn a college degree and work full-time, the combination also results in larger student loan balances, which has proven to be a major barrier for those looking to take up student loans. At the same time, the prices of goods and services continue to rise, and wages have not quite kept up with the rise in daily expenses. Median weekly income increased by 38% from 2017 to 2025, and…

London  —  Usama Ghanem learned the stifling censorship that shrouded public spaces in Egypt early in life, and still recalls criticizing the “stupid” regime under former President Hosni Mubarak in elementary school. Immediately, his teacher hushed him. “Nobody was allowed to say anything,” Ghanem, now a 22-year-old student in London, told CNN in December. “When you are in opposition to the regime, everyone makes you feel that you’re a crazy person.” A child of the Arab Spring, Ghanem grew up under the shadow of authoritarianism in Cairo. He remembers witnessing first-hand the “horrifying” Rabaa massacre in 2013 and says he…

We are at a unique time for AI companies to build their own foundational models. First, there are generations of industry veterans who made their names at large technology companies and are now independent. There are also legendary researchers with vast experience but vague commercial aspirations. It’s clear that at least some of these new labs have the potential to become giants on the scale of OpenAI, but there’s also room to do interesting research without worrying too much about commercialization. The final result? It’s getting harder to tell who’s actually trying to make money. To make things easier, I’m…
