JORGE GUERRERO/AFP/Getty Many Europeans have long seen air conditioning as an unnecessary, costly, carbon emissions-heavy indulgence.

Every year, heat claims an average of 175,000 lives across Europe, according to the World Health Organization. Air conditioning can cut...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Big Tech is all in on AI. Now all they need is customers. This week's selloff in technology stocks underscores a gnawing anxiety among investors: What happens if you throw a big party and few people show up? The Nasdaq Composite Index has slipped nearly 3% this week as Wall Street frets over whether the trillions of dollars going into artificial intelligence will deliver the revenue and profit growth needed to justify that exorbitant cost.

Scientists decipher new secrets from ancient scrolls scorched by Vesuvius eruption: "Finally able to read them" An unrolled Herculaneum scroll. National Library of Naples A University of Kentucky project using artificial intelligence to help decode an ancient Roman mystery has led to a major discovery, researchers announced Thursday. In 79 A.D., the eruption of Mount Vesuvius buried the Roman city of Pompeii and the nearby town of Herculaneum. During a dig in Herculaneum in the 18th century, archaeologists found 1,800 papyrus scrolls in an intact ancient library, deep under the site of a villa that was destroyed by Vesuvius' eruption. But reading them was impossible: The scrolls are brittle and charred, and unravelling them turns them into ash. For...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

AI could make people dull, one scientist fears. Here's why. Artificial intelligence could one day supercharge human cognition, leading to significant advances in science, technology and other fields. It could also make us dull, new academic research suggests. That's because the so-called large language models that power AI apps often yield information that is predictable and normative for the population as a whole, reducing life's complexity to a bland mulch of watered-down ideas. "LLMs predict the most likely next word in a sentence or event in a sequence, and by definition, that's average," Columbia Business School professor Sandra Matz, author of the study, told CBS News.

Aleksander Kalka/NurPhoto via Getty Images Venice's new mayor is proposing a dynamic pricing system for the city's access fee, under plans which would raise the charge to as much as $59 on the busiest days, in an attempt to ease overcrowding in the UNESCO world heritage city. Mayor Simone Venturini said Friday that the current fee of approximately $11 for last-minute reservations has not done enough to discourage visitors on peak days. Instead of imposing a fixed higher fee, the city wants to enact a form of surge-pricing, allowing the charge to rise with demand on the busiest days.

Many Americans face a tough choice between cranking up the air conditioning and keeping their utility bills in check. The cost of electricity has been rising faster than overall inflation over the past few years, according to NEADA.

In posts that sometimes included photos and videos of their attacks on unconscious victims, they referred to women as "cars," sedatives as "fuel" and rape as "driving," according to court documents. They called their victims "dead pigs."

But quite often, that suddenly changes before boarding. Why do airlines make passengers gate-check their carry-on luggage? Turns out, it comes down to the size of the plane. "This happens a lot, especially on shorter flights that are flying regional aircraft," said Gunnar Olson, travel expert and host of the Thrifty Traveler Podcast.

| Why Brandon Aiyuk's NFL career will be over if he sticks to promise he made to 49ers on social media The receiver claims he will never do business with San Francisco again, but his refusal to apply for reinstatement could permanently end his NFL career  It's been over 18 months since Brandon Aiyuk last played in the NFL, and if he doesn't learn the NFL rule book soon, he might not ever play again. Over the past few weeks, the receiver has been busy posting constant videos and messages on Instagram about his situation with the San Francisco 49ers. Earlier this week, he posted a statement that should certainly raise some eyebrows, and that's because, if he sticks to what he said, then that means his NFL career would essentially be...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| How Lakers' all-in move for Walker Kessler created a dilemma they're trying to solve with Jonathan Kuminga The Lakers have a center to pair with Luka Don?i?, but they also have a gaping hole on the wing  Getty Images The Los Angeles Lakers entered this offseason with two major holes and two means of filling them. Luka Don?i? and Austin Reaves gave them the foundation of an elite offense, but in order to build a remotely viable defense, they needed both a long-term center and a long-term wing, if not several. To get those players, they had $50 million or so in cap space, two tradable first-round picks and three tradable first-round swaps. The ideal scenario would have been to spend the cap space addressing one problem and trade the picks to...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Jet fuel prices have dropped. Why are plane tickets still so expensive? Jet fuel prices are finally easing after soaring during the Iran war. But airline passengers shouldn't expect cheaper tickets anytime soon, as strong travel demand and the recent collapse of Spirit Airlines keep fares elevated, according to air travel experts. Lower fuel costs would normally ease pressure on airfare prices. Yet analysts say airlines have little incentive to cut fares while demand remains strong and industry capacity has shrunk following Spirit Airlines' shutdown. Air fares are also remaining elevated due to what economists call the "rockets and feathers" effect: Prices shoot up quickly when costs rise, but tend to drift down more slowly when those costs...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Astronomers have detected a type of sugar in space that's also found in raspberries and self-tanners. The sugar, called erythrulose, lurks in what's called the interstellar medium: thin clouds of gas and dust littered between stars. Sugar does more than sweeten tea and powder doughnuts. Different varieties fuel our cells and even make up DNA. Scientists are itching to know how sugars form because they're a key ingredient for life as we know it.

But restoring oil tanker traffic in the vital Middle East shipping corridor to prewar flows likely will require a much bigger armada of U.S. warships if not tens of thousands of American troops on Iranian soil, experts say.

Son of couple on hunger strike in Iran prison "desperately worried" as stepdad's sentence extended A British man jailed in Iran on espionage charges that officials call baseless has had his decade-long prison sentence extended by a further two years, his family said Wednesday, as he and his partner grow weak from an ongoing two-month hunger strike. Craig Foreman, 52, was arrested in Iran with his wife Lindsay, 53, in January 2025 on a motorcycle trip from Europe to Asia. In February, 10 days before the U.S. and Israel launched joint attacks on Iran, sparking the ongoing war, they were charged with espionage and sentenced to 10 years in prison by a judge who is under U.S., U.K. and European Union sanctions for holding "show trials."

Alzheimer's blood test may predict who's likely to develop symptoms in 5 to 10 years A blood test may predict if apparently healthy older adults are likely to develop Alzheimer's symptoms in the next five or 10 years, researchers reported Wednesday. That information could be reassuring or terrifying, but for now it's a potential tool to speed drug development by helping to identify and enroll high-risk people into studies of possible Alzheimer's treatments or preventive strategies. Already large clinical trials are testing if certain drugs could prevent or at least delay the disease — and if any of those pan out, doctors will need an easy way to tell who should try them. The scientists behind the new study stress that it's too...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Journalist targeted by Iran reacts to U.K.'s crackdown on IRGC: "The happiest day of my life since I was stabbed" British-Iranian journalist Pouria Zeraati. Pouria Zeraati When British Iranian journalist Pouria Zeraati first heard of the U.K.'s formal plans to ban support of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps early this week, it gave him a sense of relief he had not felt in years. It was "the happiest day of my life since I was stabbed," he said. Zeraati's primary concern had never been the jail time handed to the Romanian nationals who were convicted for their role in the attack on him in 2024. To him, they were simply paid mercenaries.

The numbers have spiked since payments came due again following a lengthy pause intended to provide relief during the COVID-19 pandemic. Today, around 9.5 million people - 1 in 5 federal student loan borrowers - are in default, meaning they are more than nine months behind on their payments. While credit scores can suffer when borrowers are just a few months behind, entering default brings the possibility of more serious consequences, including garnished wages or Social Security payments.

The new tariffs — laid out in a series of proclamations signed by Mr. Trump on Monday — are set to take effect on Aug. 19. The White House accused Canada of "unreasonable, unequal, and discriminatory actions" by imposing tariffs or import restrictions on certain American goods, some of which began after Mr. Trump's initial round of tariffs on Canada last year.

How 401(k) fees can cost tens of thousands in retirement savings More than half of U.S. workers rely on 401(k) plans to save for retirement, but many may not be aware of fees that can fly under the radar and end up costing them tens of thousands — or more — in retirement income. While these fees may appear small at first glance, they can add up: As the Department of Labor explains, a 1% difference in fees could significantly reduce a person's ultimate account balance at retirement. In the Labor Department's example, a person with $25,000 in 401(k) savings who has 35 years until retirement and is charged 1.5% in fees could end up with $163,000 in retirement savings versus $227,000 if they were charged 0.5%, a 28% difference.

New Fed research suggests far fewer Americans own homes than widely believed Only about 53% of U.S. adults own homes, far below the commonly cited 65% homeownership rate, according to new Federal Reserve research that paints a starker picture of access to homeownership. The traditional homeownership rate, tracked by the U.S. Census Bureau, measures the share of occupied homes in which the owner lives. The new measure from the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, called the homeowners-to-population ratio, or HPOP, instead calculates the share of adults who own a home. Take a married couple who own a house and whose adult son still lives with them. The Census measure classifies the household as owner-occupied, even though the son does not own the...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Tilly Norwood's creator insists the AI actor is creating Hollywood jobs despite backlash Comedic actor and producer Eline Van der Velden, better known as the creator of the AI-generated "actor" Tilly Norwood, insists the robot-actor is a job creator, not the job killer critics fear she will be. Norwood, who was introduced to the world in July 2025, is back in the spotlight as she — or it — is poised to make her big-screen debut in "Misaligned," a feature film from Particle6, Van der Velden's production company. Rather than destroying jobs, Norwood has allowed her to hire more staff, Van der Velden told CBS News. Since she leaned into AI, her studio has expanded her small team sixfold by hiring actors, creative producers and writers,...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Social Security email sent to retirees included "misleading information," Democratic senators claim A group of Democratic senators is accusing the Social Security Administration of using a July email to distribute "misleading information" and "a partisan, politicized message," saying it threatens the agency's credibility as an independent agency. The email, titled "Making Life More Affordable for America's Seniors," was sent on July 2 by Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano. The message was meant to highlight the agency's efforts to improve Social Security's customer service, while also touting the impact of the Republicans' One Big Beautiful Bill Act, or OBBBA, on retirees' taxes. "Thanks to President Trump, over 35 million American...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Pentagon website "anomalies" that removed names of 4 killed in Iran war remain The Pentagon website that informs the public about the dead and wounded in different military conflicts removed four deaths from the war with Iran this week, showing that 14 service members have died, instead of the 18 who have been killed since the war began in February. Sean Parnell, the chief Pentagon spokesperson, in a statement shared on X on Thursday, said that "the site errors on the Defense Casualty Analysis System were due to a temporary data disruption" and the "site anomalies are currently being resolved in coordination with the Military Services." The site, which was last updated on July 22, on Friday still showed only 14 killed in the conflict. According to the Congressional Research Service, when an active-duty service...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Meet the "Steel Warriors" turning seized knives into free outdoor gyms for London's teens A charity has been hard at work turning thousands of knives taken off the streets of London into a new type of weapon to counter a youth violence crisis facing many British cities. In the East London neighborhood of Langdon Park, more than a dozen teenagers met up recently for fitness training on equipment made from the confiscated weapons. "The thought of doing something that I don't think 1% of the population can do," Bruce Sanh, 16, told CBS News when asked what inspires him to push his body with calisthenics on the recycled weaponry. The idea is that the community is building something much bigger...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Canada's Doug Ford on Trump trade war: "When someone comes up and punches you in the face ... you have to stand up" President Trump campaigned on lower prices for Americans, but his trade war with Canada is pushing prices higher for Americans, Ontario Premier Doug Ford told CBS News in an interview Friday. Earlier this week, Mr. Trump announced 50% tariffs starting next month on a number of Canadian goods, including hockey sticks and alcohol, on top of other tariffs he's already imposed on Canada and elsewhere. In response, Canada this week rescinded its invitations to U.S. officials to attend the long-awaited opening of the Gordie Howe Bridge between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario. Ford said Canadians love Americans, but he said the president's...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Eastern Conference Power Rankings: Where do new-look 76ers stack up vs. Knicks, Celtics after adding LeBron? James' decision to sign with the 76ers has shifted the league's power balance further toward the East  Getty Images After more than three weeks, LeBron James finally made his free agency decision on Friday. To the surprise of many, James, 41, will sign a two-year deal with the Philadelphia 76ers. James will join the 76ers after an eight-year run with the Los Angeles Lakers. The move comes on the heels of Philadelphia acquiring Jaylen Brown in a blockbuster trade with the Boston Celtics. James and Brown will join Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe in a loaded starting lineup, but is that group enough to vault the Sixers to the top of the Eastern Conference ahead of the defending champion New York Knicks? Of the options on the...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Restaurant visits fall, grocery store lettuce sales dip. Here's how cyclosporiasis is affecting businesses. Foot traffic to popular food and restaurant chains has declined as the outbreak of cyclosporiasis, linked to lettuce from Mexico, grows in scope, and consumers take steps to avoid getting sick. Cases of illness connected to the cyclospora parasite expanded to four more states, bringing the total number of affected states to nine, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services told CBS News on Friday. It's also been linked to at least one additional, but yet-to-be-identified food product, the Food and Drug Administration said Thursday. Grocers and restaurant chains featuring lettuce-heavy menus have experienced a drop-off in visits in...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |
