For years now, Valve fans have been making jokes about the company’s slow transition from game maker to glorified digital hat and knife paint marketplace. This week, though, a lawsuit brought by the state of New York argues that Valve’s in-game loot box sales amount to an illegal gambling outfit worth tens of billions of dollars. Lawyers who have looked into the particulars of the case tell Ars that the state faces an uphill battle in convincing courts […]
Earlier this week in our HackerNoon editorial meeting, we noticed an interesting pattern. We were reviewing the top-performing stories from the past two weeks, and couldn’t help but notice an interesting trend. https://hackernoon.com/welcome-to-the-museum-of-ai-hallucinations?embedable=true https://hackernoon.com/i-traded-my-sketchpad-for-a-prompt-boxand-art-will-never-be-the-same?embedable=true https://hackernoon.com/anyone-can-be-a-victim-to-a-phishing-scam-heres-mine?embedable=true https://hackernoon.com/why-everyone-is-panic-buying-mac-minis-for-openclaw-moltbot-clawdbot?embedable=true https://hackernoon.com/how-anonymous-instagram-stories-viewing-changed-my-social-media-strategy?embedable=true Are you seeing what we’re seeing? Here’s a hint—the leaderboard was full of specific, lived experiences. We’ve got an artist talking about making digital art in the age of AI; an observation on why people were panic-buying Mac minis; a PSA […]
Optimizing the consolidation process in container-based fulfillment centers requires trading off competing objectives such as processing speed, resource usage, and space utilization while adhering to a range of real-world operational constraints. This process involves moving items between containers via a combination of human and robotic workstations to free up space for inbound inventory and increase container utilization. We formulate this problem as a large-scale Multi-Objective Reinforcement Learning (MORL) task with high-dimensional state spaces and dynamic system behavior. Our […]
Perplexity Computer, in the company’s words, “unifies every current AI capability into a single system.”
Welcome to the latest HackerNoon Projects of the Week installment. Each week, we shine a light on standout projects from our Proof of Usefulness Hackathon—a contest built around the core question every builder should answer: Is my product actually useful in the real world? For each edition, we’ll highlight projects that demonstrate clear usefulness, technical execution, and real-world impact; all backed by data and not witty buzzwords. This week, we’re excited to share three projects that have proven […]
While Anthropic has an existing partnership with the Pentagon, the AI company has remained firm that its technology not be used for mass domestic surveillance or fully autonomous weaponry.
SEOUL, South Korea – Artificial Intelligence is evolving beyond a simple tool into an “agent” that executes marketing strategies, while consumers are entering a “Zero-Click” environment where purchase decisions are made without traditional searching.

DMK Global (CEO Se-jeong Park), a leading knowledge-content platform, announced that it will host the ‘Digital Marketing […]

The international forum traditionally features founders, top managers, and visionaries from Tether, Binance, Tron, Ripple, Bybit, Bitget, Animoca Brands, […]
In many applications, evaluating the effectiveness of different alternatives comes with varying costs or resource usage. Motivated by such heterogeneity, we study the Best Arm Identification with Resource Constraints (BAIwRC) problem, where an agent seeks to identify the best alternative (aka arm) in the presence of resource constraints. Each arm pull consumes one or more types of limited resources. We make two key contributions. First, we propose the Successive Halving with Resource Rationing (SH-RR) algorithm, which integrates resource-aware […]
