Evolving AI: Millions now rely on ChatGPT for health questions, often outside clinic hours.
Key Points:
Over 40 million people use ChatGPT daily for health-related questions, with healthcare making up more than 5% of all messages.
In the U.S., three in five adults used AI for health purposes recently, mostly to check symptoms, decode medical language, or review treatment paths.
Doctors and nurses are adopting AI fast, using it for notes, research summaries, and care planning.
Details:
OpenAI says ChatGPT is becoming a common stop for health questions, with more than 40 million daily users worldwide. In the U.S., most AI health chats happen outside clinic hours, filling gaps in access. Use cases range from symptom checks to clarifying medical instructions. Adoption is rising among clinicians too, with surveys showing strong growth in AI use for documentation and research support, including in rural areas facing staff shortages.

Why It Matters:
Most of the chats happen after clinic hours, often to sanity-check symptoms or decode doctor speak. The bigger shift is workflow: patients show up to appointments better prepared, and clinicians are leaning on AI to cut paperwork and summarize info, with AMA data showing physician AI use jumped from 38% in 2023 to 66% in 2024. That puts real pressure on guardrails, since a tool people trust at 11pm becomes part of care decisions, especially in rural areas where access is thin.

🌐 Alexa moves to the browser
Evolving AI: Amazon brings Alexa+ to the web, making the assistant usable across voice, mobile, and desktop.
Key Points:
Alexa.com gives Alexa+ a full web interface with persistent memory, actions, and device control.
Users can plan meals, manage schedules, control smart homes, and create content from one place.
Amazon positions Alexa+ as a cross-surface assistant that follows users between devices.
Details:
Amazon has launched Alexa.com for Alexa+ Early Access users, extending its assistant beyond speakers and phones. The web experience mirrors Alexa+ features across devices, keeping chats, preferences, and context in sync. Users can upload files, plan trips, manage calendars, control smart homes, discover entertainment, and turn recipes into shopping carts. A sidebar offers fast access to chats, lists, files, and home controls, supporting quick task switching.
Why It Matters:
Amazon realized that real “assistant” moment often happens at a laptop, with a keyboard, tabs, and files in front of you. Putting Alexa+ in the browser turns it into something you can use for work-and-life admin in one sitting: drop in a school calendar PDF, pull out dates, add them to your calendar, turn a recipe link into a shopping list, then flip over and check the front door cam or lights in the same window. That mix of chat + files + actions is where assistants are heading, and Amazon has a direct path from “help me plan dinner” to an Amazon Fresh or Whole Foods cart, which is a pretty different incentive loop than a standalone chatbot.
This is the opening video from NVIDIA at CES 2026, setting the tone for how the company sees the next phase of AI. In just a few minutes, NVIDIA shows how AI is moving beyond flashy demos into multi-modal systems that can see, listen, reason, and act in the real world. It’s a sharp, cinematic snapshot of the rise of AI and a demonstration of where Nvidia believes the technology is headed next.

Evolving AI: Meta delays global rollout of Ray-Ban Display glasses after strong U.S. demand.
Key Points:
U.S. demand for Meta’s Ray-Ban Display glasses outpaced supply, pushing waitlists into 2026.
Meta paused planned launches in the U.K., France, Italy, and Canada to prioritize U.S. orders.
The glasses mark Meta’s first consumer-ready AI eyewear built with EssilorLuxottica.
Details:
Meta confirmed it will delay the international launch of its Ray-Ban Display glasses after demand in the U.S. exceeded expectations. Inventory limits mean early 2026 waitlists, prompting Meta to halt near-term rollouts in Europe and Canada. The $799 glasses, unveiled last fall, offer video playback, messaging, and wristband-based neural control. The product stems from Meta’s long-term partnership with EssilorLuxottica, which already lifted eyewear sales last year.
Why It Matters:
Meta hitting a waitlist into 2026 is a signal that smart glasses are crossing from “cool demo” to “I’d actually wear this daily,” and supply is now the bottleneck. If you build products, content, or campaigns, expect a U.S.-first reality for the next wave of hands-free screens, AI prompts, navigation, and quick replies, with creators and frontline teams likely getting the earliest workflow wins. It’s happening just as Google ramps its own eyewear push with Warby Parker, so the next year starts to look less like a gadget cycle and more like a platform race for what shows up in your field of view.
