Senior software developers are preparing for a major shift in how they work as artificial intelligence becomes central to their workflows, according to BairesDev’s latest Dev Barometer report published today. VentureBeat was given an exclusive early look and the findings below come directly from that report. The quarterly global survey, which polled 501 developers and 19 project managers across 92 software initiatives, finds that nearly two-thirds (65%) of senior developers expect their roles to be redefined by AI in 2026. The data highlights a transformation underway in software development: fewer routine coding tasks, more emphasis on design and strategy, and…

One the biggest challenges for quantum computers is the incredibly short time that qubits can retain information. But a new qubit from Princeton University lasts 15 times longer than industry standard versions in a major step towards large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum systems.A major bottleneck for quantum computing is decoherence—the rate at which qubits lose stored quantum information to the environment. The faster this happens, the less time the computer has to perform operations and the more errors are introduced to the calculations.While companies and researchers are developing error-correction schemes to mitigate this problem, qubits with greater stability could be a more…

Huawei Watch Ultimate 2: One-minute review (Image credit: Future / Paul Hatton)In recent years, Huawei has dedicated itself so aggressively to wearables that in 2025 they shipped more watches than any other brand – including Apple. In the past year I’ve reviewed a number of the best smartwatches from Huawei, including the GT5, the D2 and the Fit 3. I awarded all three an impressive 4.5 stars, which just…

HDMI cables have become a vital part of my everyday life, and if I didn’t have any, I wouldn’t be able to do much. While my PC has largely phased out HDMI cables, that’s not the case for anything else in my house. My TV, game consoles, and streaming boxes all need HDMI cables, so it’s important to me to find something that’s worth the money. There are so many types of HDMI cables out there nowadays that it can be difficult to find out what’s right for you. With the advent of HDMI 2.2 here, you still might not…

Presented by CelonisAfter a year of boardroom declarations about “AI transformation,” this was the week where enterprise leaders came together to talk about what actually works. Speaking from the stage at Celosphere in Munich, Celonis co-founder and co-CEO Alexander Rinke set the tone early in his keynote:“Only 11 % of companies are seeing measurable benefits from AI projects today,” he said. “That’s not an adoption problem. That’s a context problem.”It’s a sentiment familiar to anyone who’s tried to deploy AI inside a large enterprise. You can’t automate what you don’t understand — and most organizations still lack a unified picture…

Illustration by Tag Hartman-Simkins / Futurism. Source: Axel Koester / Corbis via Getty; AI Generated Video (Screenshot) via X Elon Musk appears to be going through it. On Saturday, the billionaire became the subject of widespread mockery after boasting about how the video generating model from his AI company xAI, Grok Imagine, can fabricate a photorealistic clip of a woman looking into the camera and declaring her undying love for you — which is either an indication that Musk thinks his fans are a bunch of lonely sad sacks, or that he himself is one, or both. “Grok Imagine prompt:…

Xiaomi is setting its sights firmly on mobile photography dominance with its upcoming Xiaomi 17 Ultra, which could easily become one of the most powerful camera phones ever made.  Leaks from Digital Chat Station say this flagship will launch with Xiaomi’s own lens system and new LOFIC imaging tech. That means sharper photos, better light control, and probably a whole lot of jaw-dropping shots. The Xiaomi 15 Ultra already won the Best Camera Phone at the Trusted Reviews Awards 2025, and the 17 Ultra looks to build on that top-level performance.  The Xiaomi 17 Ultra will reportedly feature a massive…

Although you’d think that horror movies are something people save for Halloween, they’re actually an evergreen genre. No matter the time of year, no matter where people are in the world, no matter how old, folks always want to be scared. And in recent years, Hollywood seems to be catching on to that in a big way. Not only have there been more horror movies coming out, but more of them have been good, and audiences have responded by turning out in droves. Superhero movies aren’t the reliable cash cow they once were, but it’s looking like horror films could…

Chronosphere, a New York-based observability startup valued at $1.6 billion, announced Monday it will launch AI-Guided Troubleshooting capabilities designed to help engineers diagnose and fix production software failures — a problem that has intensified as artificial intelligence tools accelerate code creation while making systems harder to debug.The new features combine AI-driven analysis with what Chronosphere calls a Temporal Knowledge Graph, a continuously updated map of an organization's services, infrastructure dependencies, and system changes over time. The technology aims to address a mounting challenge in enterprise software: developers are writing code faster than ever with AI assistance, but troubleshooting remains largely…
