October 26, 2025, 3:16 AM EDT. Cognizant CEO Ravi Kumar S says the IT giant will hire non-STEM graduates and invest in apprenticeship programs across 30 states, arguing that an arts degree can be enough in an AI-driven future. He describes AI as an amplifier of human potential, not a displacement strategy, and notes a move to recruit school graduates and liberal arts students beyond traditional STEM roles. The plan broadens the talent pyramid and lets liberal arts graduates punch above their weight with the right tooling. Kumar cites problem finding, conceptual thinking, and the value of anthropologists, sociologists, psychologists, and journalists as essential to AI-powered teams. Cognizant also aims to accelerate productivity by enabling AI across enterprises and recently deployed 1,000 context engineers to industrialize agentic AI.

October 26, 2025, 3:02 AM EDT. OpenAI is moving beyond words and images into music creation. The company is developing a new music creation platform in collaboration with the prestigious Juilliard School to give AI a deep understanding of music theory and composition. By analyzing scores, experts are helping the system to learn to 'think' like a composer. The prototype can create music from scratch and add orchestration, instruments, or effects to existing tracks, such as transforming a melody into a full arrangement. While details remain secret, analysts expect OpenAI to shake up the AI music market, challenging players like SunO and Udio. MuseNet (2019) and Jukebox (2020) are cited as precursors in this evolving field.

October 26, 2025, 2:58 AM EDT. Japan's H3 No. 7 launched from Tanegashima, delivering the HTV-X No. 1 cargo craft toward the ISS. After about 14 minutes it separated into its designated orbit, drawing applause in the JAXA control room with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries staff. The mission also carries a space-use brewing apparatus and sake ingredients as part of the Dassai MOON Project, which aims to someday brew sake on the lunar surface with experiments inside the Kibo module aboard the ISS. The HTV-X is a successor to the H2A, designed to carry up to 5.85 tons and dock at the station after a multi-day transit. Astronaut Kimiya Yui will operate the robotic arm to capture and dock the resupply craft; the project seeks to expand Japan's space logistics capabilities.

October 26, 2025, 2:10 AM EDT. NASA is considering expanding the Artemis 3 lunar landing competition beyond SpaceX as delays to Starship push the 2027 timetable. Acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy told CNBC that NASA will issue a formal Request for Proposals to let other space firms bid to beat SpaceX. Blue Origin, with its Blue Moon lander, is among the companies NASA says it'd like to hear from, though Artemis 3 was SpaceX's contract since 2021 for about $2.9 billion. The move underscores concerns about Starship readiness and a race with China. If NASA proceeds with bidding, SpaceX will again face new competition as it works through Starship testing and refueling toward a lunar landing in 2027.

Apple has a limited-time sign-up bonus for new Apple Card applicants: earn $75 in Bonus Daily Cash after spending $75 within the first 30 days, valid through November 17.
