Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways The real barrier to AI adoption is behavioral, not technical. Most companies treat AI as something you install rather than something you practice. The gap between understanding AI conceptually and applying it to real daily work only closes through hands-on experience — not through training alone. Asking “what should no longer be done manually?” surfaces practical, high-impact use cases far better than asking “where can we use AI?” Non-technical teams often find the biggest wins. Lasting adoption comes from people seeing AI directly improve their daily work and eliminate the…

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. When Dr. Zaher Merhi started his fertility practice, he did what every other reproductive endocrinologist does: he followed the standard playbook. High-dose stimulation medications. Weeks of preliminary testing before a patient could even begin treatment. Protocols built around consistency, meaning what worked for the average patient was applied to every patient. He was good at it. But he kept running into the same wall. Women would come to him in their early 30s, healthy, motivated, with good ovarian reserve, and the system would swallow them whole. Four to eight weeks of intake…
A Utah data center proposed by Shark Tank investor Kevin O’Leary is expected to be massive. The project—called Stratos but also referred to as Wonder Valley—would be 40,000 acres, or roughly double the size of Manhattan. It could consume up to 9 GW of power, which is more than double the entire state’s average electricity use. That is, if it ever gets built. Right now, the reality of a 9 GW Utah data center doesn’t seem all that likely to Olivia Wang, a research analyst at Sightline Climate, an energy transition intelligence firm. Or at least, she says, not “at…
After more than a decade of mixing and kneading dough in his family’s Brooklyn pizzeria, Salvatore Lo Duca recently made a distressing discovery: A key component of their thin-crust pies, bromated flour, contained a suspected carcinogen already banned in much of the world.So, in the back kitchen of Lo Duca Pizza, the 39-year-old began tweaking the original recipe handed down by his parents — with unexpected results.“When we started playing around with a different flour, I actually took a liking to it,” said Lo Duco, who runs the shop with his five brothers. “It’s a little more expensive, but the…
The housing market might finally start shaking off some dust after a few years stuck in a rut. According to a new report from Realtor.com, both new home listings and contract signings just hit their highest level in four years. That surge in springtime activity is a sign that the real estate market might be becoming unstuck after years weighed down by the high interest rates that took root this time in 2022. “For the first time in three years, we’re seeing contract signing growth that genuinely outpaces the trend of the recent past,” Jake Krimmel, senior economist at Realtor.com,…
The Social Security cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for next year could reach 3.9%, according to a new report. The latest monthly prediction from The Senior Citizens League (TSCL) is its highest yet this year—notably higher than the 2.8% increase that it had predicted during its three previous cycles. That previous figure would have kept the COLA flat from 2025. The Social Security Administration (SSA) will announce the official 2027 COLA increase in October. At 3.9%, the average benefits check would rise from $2,081.16 to $2,162.33—an $81.17 jump. The nonprofit TSCL stresses that even a 3.9% jump might not offset inflation’s effect…
The last time Los Angeles hosted the Olympic Games, designers had a relatively simple typographic system. It used the italic sans-serif Univers 66 as its logotype along with a blocky stencil-style “LA84” mark that appeared on venue and urban signage. More than 40 years later, the 2028 Los Angeles Games will use an entire bespoke four-font book. The typeface of the 2028 Games brand and design system developed by Koto Studios is called LA28, and it’s inspired by strip mall signage and hand-painted street lettering across L.A. The typeface comes in four distinct styles, Display, Sans, Serif, and Super, and…

Price sensitivity reflects the realities of starting a business, not a lack of loyalty or follow-through. Misclassifying coupon users as low-value is the real problem — and it’s one founders create for themselves. Generally speaking, discount-driven customers are not trusted by business founders.The assumption is that they’re low-value, price-sensitive and likely to move on to something else. The thinking behind this is that if someone needs a coupon to complete their purchase, they aren’t the kind…
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways Alignment isn’t about universal agreement — it’s about shared commitment and coordinated action toward common goals. Psychological safety expands meaningful contribution from a select few to the entire leadership team. Trust, humility and healthy conflict are the building blocks of sustainable group flow and peak performance. Many businesses struggle with growth and profitability, not due to market factors, labor costs or even a poorly defined strategy.
