Artificial general intelligence (AGI) could fundamentally change the way governments, economies and public finances operate in the next decade. Technology that is already outperforming humans in data analysis and complex problem solving could take over key tasks currently in the hands of politicians, consultants and economists. From faster and more accurate lawmaking to full transparency in the use of public funds, AGI promises a revolution that could significantly reduce human error and political bias.

The Yamaha Ténéré 700 is basically an adventure bike, born to explore the unknown. But when it gets into the hands of the masters at Rough Crafts, things change quickly. Winston Yeh has taken this mid-weight adventure bike and transformed it into a true flat track beast – the YenereZ 700 FT. The result? A bike that looks like it’s escaped from an American oval race and is ready for urban mischief.
G-SHOCK has been synonymous with indestructible and rugged timepieces for decades, but their latest model, the G-SHOCK GA-V01 "CoolEyes," is such a bold departure from tradition that it could easily be a prop from a futuristic sci-fi movie.

A cross between a compact city car and a mini crossover, the EV2 aims to conquer European streets. Could it become the new electric blockbuster?
Leica. A name that sends shivers down the spine and empty bank accounts for photography lovers. Their cameras are a symbol of technical perfection, an analog soul, and the kind of minimalism that only someone who has been at the top of their game for decades can afford. And then they decided to make a watch. Not their first, but certainly one that deserves a raised eyebrow. The Leica ZM 12 is not just a watch, it's a philosophy. It's proof that Leica is capable of capturing not just moments, but time itself.
