    www.forbes.com
    Ammo Williams, Edgar Berlanga and Omari JonesCredit: Matchroom/DAZNOn Saturday in Orlando, Florida, DAZN delivers an interesting mix of fights, featuring three intriguing young fighters looking to gain experience, victories, and respect.The Matchroom Boxing show will be headlined by rising middleweight Austin Ammo Williams taking on Patrice Volny. In the co-main event, former 168-pound title challenger Edgar Berlanga is back in action against Jonathan Gonzalez-Ortiz.Berlanga isnt happy about being the co-feature, and he made that known during fight week, but more on that in a bit.Opening the televised portion of the card, Olympic medalist Omari Jones makes his pro debut against Alessio Mastronunzio. Here is a breakdown of the card along with watch info.Main Event: Austin "Ammo" Williams vs. Patrice Volny (Middleweight)Location: Caribe Royale, Orlando, Florida, USAWatch Info: DAZN (global stream, main card approx. 8:00 PM ET, main event around 11:00 PM ET)Undercard:Edgar Berlanga vs. Jonathan Gonzalez-Ortiz (Super Middleweight)Jalil Hackett vs. Jose Roman (Welterweight rematch)Jamaine Ortiz vs. Yomar Alamo (Lightweight)Omari Jones vs. Alessio Mastronunzio (Super Welterweight, Jones pro debut)Williams bounced back from his first pro defeata KO loss to Hamzah Sheeraz in June 2024with a stoppage win over Gian Garrido in November 2024.He is continuing his move back toward a title opportunity at middleweight as he battles Volny. The 35-year-old Canadian has a 19-1 record with 13 KOs, and he appears to be the right kind of opponent for Williams at this point in his career.The fight should test Williams a bit, and it will let us know if he is ready to take another step up in competition.In the co-main event, Puerto Rican KO artist Berlanga clashes with Gonzalez-Ortiz. Last time out, Berlanga lost a lopsided decision to Canelo Alvarez in September 2024. He, too, is looking to bounce back, but it is clear the 27-year-old from New York doesnt feel like he should be in a co-main event.Its disrespectful," Berlanga said. "Its disrespectful to me. Its disrespectful to my fans. I go in that ring and I fight. I gave the people that was out of this world with Canelo Alvarez. We went out there and we went to war for 12 rounds. For me to go from that to this is like, people is just trippin. My stock grew so much after that fight that I should be fighting one of these big fights against [Jaime] Munguia or Caleb Plant.Berlanga made it clear he wants out of his contract with Matchroom.I spoke with Berlanga in an exclusive interview, and he spoke more about Ortiz.Everybody knows what type of level hes on. Hes not on my level. I just gotta go out there and handle my business.As for Jones, he is ready to prove he is going to be a force at 154 pounds. I spoke with him a few weeks ago as he moved closer to his professional debut. I asked him if he has felt pressure from the attention hes received from being a sought-after Olympian.I definitely feel like its a blessing," Jones said in an exclusive interview. "For a lot of promoters to come to me and reach out. Its obvious that they see something in me to make me a superstar.Like Williams and Berlanga, Jones will have his share of eyes on him in his pro debut.

  • Blue Ghosts moon landing shown in dramatic new footage
    www.digitaltrends.com
    When the Blue Ghost lander reached the lunar surface on March 2, Firefly Aerospace become the first commercial company to fully succeed in a soft moon landing at the first attempt.A week on, and a team at NASAs Langley Research Center in Virginia has just released first-of-its-kind footage of a lunar landers powerful engine plumes interacting with the moons surface, captured as the Blue Ghost touched down.Recommended VideosComing in for a landing During last week's Moon landing, our SCALPSS cameras captured first-of-its-kind video of the lunar landers engine plumes interacting with the Moons surface.Read more: https://t.co/E14hnNzaZN pic.twitter.com/V5ST35X6ao NASA Langley Research Center (@NASA_Langley) March 13, 2025Please enable Javascript to view this contentThe remarkable video was recorded by the landers Stereo Cameras for Lunar-Plume Surface Studies (SCALPSS) 1.1 instrument, which is part of NASAs Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) initiative.The sequence starts around 91 feet (28 meters) above the lunar surface, with lunar dust beginning to kick up when the lander descends to about 49 feet (15 meters). The SCALPSS 1.1 technology comprises six cameras, four with a short focal length and two with a long focal length. The long-focal-length cameras started recording at a higher altitude, before the dust started to react, to give scientists some useful before-and-after data.Michelle Munk, SCALPSS principal investigator, described SCALPSS as a key step in gathering fundamental knowledge about landing and operating on the moon, adding that the technology is already providing data that could inform future missions.The work is particularly important as NASA and its commercial partners move toward increasing the frequency of lunar landings as part of the Artemis program.The Blue Ghost mission, which will end on Sunday, has a number of objectives, including studying lunar regolith, testing new technologies for future missions, and conducting various scientific experiments, including the observation of Earths magnetic field from the moon. The Firefly team also hopes it will inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers.Want to see another video of the Blue Ghost touching down last week?Then check out this footage captured by a different camera on the lander.Editors Recommendations

  • Android 16s latest beta adds an iPhone-like Battery Health tool
    www.digitaltrends.com
    Table of ContentsTable of ContentsWhy this is important?It does moreGoogle has started the rollout of Android 16s third beta build. Its not a massive aesthetic makeover, but there are a few features that users will appreciate. Among them is the addition of a health check system for the phones battery. The new feature, called Battery Health, can be accessed by opening the Battery dashboard in the Settings app. There isnt a heap of functional stuff here, aside from an information deck that essentially tells you about the electrochemical status of your phones battery. Recommended VideosWhy this is important?A typical lithium-ion battery fitted inside smartphones undergoes repeated charge-discharge cycles, almost on a daily basis. Over time, chemical degradation happens, which affects how long the battery can retain charge. Technically speaking, rechargeable batteries are consumables and they have a limited lifespan. Please enable Javascript to view this contentA lot of factors are involved here, such as impedance and battery voltage, both of which are affected by the chemical age of a battery. Based on the batterys health, smartphones perform certain optimizations to manage the device workload, prevent shutdowns, and manage scenarios such as lags.Nadeem Sarwar / Digital TrendsHowever, an average Android smartphone has no way of telling users whether their battery is not in optimal shape. With the arrival of the Android 16 Beta 3 update, the Battery Health dashboard will do just that in the form of a percentage figure, somewhat like the iPhones. This is an estimated percentage of charge the battery can currently hold compared to a new standard battery, explains Google. In general, a battery health metric of over 80% is considered optimal for a phone to work fine without any noticeable charge efficiency or performance woes. If it dips below that, users can reach out to the smartphone brands support channel and secure a replacement depending on the warranty coverage status. It does more Of course, its helpful that you can keep an eye on the battery health of your phone, especially in the long run. If your phone is giving you performance issues, you can quickly check if the aging battery is to blame, depending on the battery health percentage. However, Googles implementation on Android phones will offer a handful of suggestions on how users can get the best out of their phones battery while keeping it in good shape. To that end, the Battery Health dashboard will also include charging optimization controls.Nadeem Sarwar / Digital TrendsOne of those features is adaptive charging, which slows the pace of battery top-up when the phone is plugged in overnight, and only reaches the full capacity in a burst mode right before you wake up. Users can also choose to limit the battery charging to 80% of its peak capacity. Moreover, the battery health dashboard will also offer quick access to guides and help articles on how users can strike the best balance between battery health and device performance. Some of those steps include reducing the background activity burden from features such as Now Playing song identification, enabling adaptive brightness, and restricting app background activity.

  • Anthropic's CEO says that in 3 to 6 months, AI will be writing 90% of the code software developers were in charge of
    www.businessinsider.com
    2025-03-14T06:27:16Z Read in app "And then in twelve months, we may be in a world where AI is writing essentially all of the code," Anthropic's CEO Dario Amodei said at a Council on Foreign Relations event on Monday. Halil Sagirkaya/Anadolu via Getty Images This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers. Become an Insider and start reading now.Have an account? Dario Amodei, the cofounder and CEO of Anthropic, says AI could be coding most software soon.AI could be "writing essentially all of the code" in 12 months, Amodei said.Amodei said he expected AI to have a similar impact "in every industry."Dario Amodei, the CEO of AI startup Anthropic, said on Monday that AI, and not software developers, could be writing most of the code in our software in a year."I think we will be there in three to six months, where AI is writing 90% of the code. And then, in 12 months, we may be in a world where AI is writing essentially all of the code," Amodei said at a Council of Foreign Relations event on March 10.Amodei said software developers will still have a role to play in the near term. This is because humans will have to feed the AI models with design features and conditions, he said."But on the other hand, I think that eventually all those little islands will get picked off by AI systems. And then, we will eventually reach the point where the AIs can do everything that humans can. And I think that will happen in every industry," Amodei said.Amodei, who used to work at OpenAI, cofounded Anthropic in 2021. The company has received billions of dollars in funding from tech giants like Google and Amazon.This isn't the first time Amodei has spoken publicly about the seismic impact AI could have on the world.Last month, Amodei said in an interview with The New York Times that people still aren't recognizing the effect AI could have on their lives and livelihoods."I think people will wake up to both the risks and the benefits to a much more extreme extent than they will before over the next two years," Amodei said in an interview on the Times' "Hard Fork" podcast, which aired on February 28.Representatives for Amodei at Anthropic did not respond to a request for comment from Business Insider.To be sure, Amodei isn't the only one who has recognized AI's ability to displace software developers.Garry Tan, the president and CEO of startup incubator Y Combinator, said in an X post on March 5 that one-quarter of the founders in their 2025 winter batch were relying heavily on AI to code their software."For 25% of the Winter 2025 batch, 95% of lines of code are LLM generated. That's not a typo," Tan wrote.IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said last year that she expected AI to impact roughly 40% of global jobs."Roughly half the exposed jobs may benefit from AI integration, enhancing productivity. For the other half, AI applications may execute key tasks currently performed by humans, which could lower labor demand, leading to lower wages and reduced hiring," Georgieva wrote in a blog post in January 2024."In the most extreme cases, some of these jobs may disappear," she added.

  • A second judge ruled to temporarily reinstate federal workers, this time across 18 departments and agencies
    www.businessinsider.com
    2025-03-14T05:45:17Z Read in app A second federal judge ruled on Thursday that the Trump administration must now reinstate jobs across 18 agencies and departments, at least for the next two weeks. Michael Nigro/Pacific Press/LightRocket via Getty Images This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers. Become an Insider and start reading now.Have an account? A federal judge has ruled that fired workers in 18 government agencies must be reoffered jobs on Monday.That includes the USAID, CFPB, and Departments of Veterans Affairs and Education.The ruling is temporary and lasts only two weeks for now.A federal judge ruled on Thursday that probationary employees in 18 agencies fired by the Trump administration must be reinstated for at least two weeks.Senior US District Judge James Bredar is now the second federal judge to rule against the mass layoffs after US District Judge William Alsup made a similar decision earlier on Thursday in a separate lawsuit.In the earlier case, Alsup had ordered from San Francisco that the Trump administration has to reoffer jobs to thousands of fired workers across six Cabinet departments.Bredar's new temporary restraining order from the Maryland district court goes much wider.His ruling targets 12 departments, including the Departments of Agriculture, Education, Veterans Affairs, Health and Human Services, Transportation, State, and Homeland Security. It did not cover the Defense Department, though Alsup's ruling did.Additionally, Bredar ordered reinstatement at six other agencies, including the US Agency for International Development and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, both of which have been under immense pressure from the White House.Bredar and Alsup didn't buy into the Trump administration's stated reason for firing employees without notice: that the workers' individual performance or conduct wasn't good enough."Here, the terminated probationary employees were plainly not terminated for cause," Bredar wrote in his memo."The sheer number of employees that were terminated in a matter of days belies any argument that these terminations were due to the employees' individual unsatisfactory performance or conduct," he added.Many of these cuts were made under the recommendations of the White House's DOGE office, which has spearheaded President Donald Trump's effort to reduce the federal workforce.Reinstating jobs will be tough, but appropriate, judge saysBredar, an Obama appointee, wrote that the 18 departments and agencies he named must reinstate their employees by Monday, March 17, at 1 p.m. ET.Under this ruling, the terminations are to be suspended for 14 days.Bredar added that he knew this would likely be a mammoth effort."When, as is likely the case here, the Government has engaged in an illegal scheme spanning broad swaths of the federal workforce, it is inevitable that the remediation of that scheme will itself be a significant task," he wrote.His ruling came as part of a lawsuit filed by a combined 20 Democratic state attorneys general against multiple branches of the federal government over employee terminations.Their legal challenge argues that the Trump administration ignored protocol and bypassed federal laws requiring employers to notify state governments when conducting mass layoffs.With their lawsuit proceeding, Bredar wrote in his memo that the court would likely soon consider a longer-term decision regarding the return of the probationary workers.The White House did not respond to a request for comment about Bredar's ruling sent outside regular business hours by Business Insider.But White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt blasted Alsup's ruling on Thursday."A single judge is attempting to unconstitutionally seize the power of hiring and firing from the Executive Branch," she said in a statement. "The President has the authority to exercise the power of the entire executive branch singular district court judges cannot abuse the power of the entire judiciary to thwart the President's agenda. If a federal district court judge would like executive powers, they can try and run for President themselves."Thursday's rulings are among the first in a mounting series of high-profile legal challenges and orders seeking to regulate DOGE's sweeping moves.The agency was recently told by multiple judges to comply with requests for information about its operations.As DOGE leads federal employee cuts, job terminations in the US government hit 172,017 in February, the highest monthly level since the COVID-19 pandemic triggered a wave of layoffs in June 2020.
