Indraprastha University launches AI chatbot for hassle-free admissions
The chatbot was developed using artificial intelligence and is accessible via mobile phones. It is designed to address admissions- and counselling-related queries for the upcoming academic session.By promoting quick, accurate, and round-the-clock responses for the admission process, the service aims to ease the experience for thousands of aspiring students.
'IPU AI ASSIST' draws its responses from official sources such as the university's admission brochures, notices, and circulars available on its website. It serves as a virtual guide, helping students navigate admission procedures, understand eligibility criteria, and get clarity on key dates and documentation.
It helps to minimise communication delays and give end-to-end information to the students during the admission sessions. Vice Chancellor Dr. Mahesh Sharma called the initiative 'a boon for information seekers,' especially those dealing with questions about admissions.
The move marks a step in digital transformation at the university, aligned to solve the educational problems with the help of AI, aiming to make the admission process more transparent, student-friendly, and efficient for all applicants. It can be accessed 24/7 through the official university website, www.ipu.ac.in.

Official: Barcelona squad list to face RCD Mallorca
FC Barcelona will begin the defence of their La Liga title later this evening when they take on RCD Mallorca away at Son Moix. Ahead of the trip to Palma, manager Hansi Flick has announced the squad list of players who will be making the flight. The big news is that new signing Joan Garcia headlines the squad list and is expected to make his official debut for Barcelona, after finally being registered in La Liga this morning. Meanwhile, as expected, Marcus Rashford is also included in the squad, although his registration is yet to be made official. There is no place in the squad for Wojciech Szczesny and Gerard Martin, both of whom are yet to be registered. Marc-Andre ter Stegen, meanwhile, misses through injury. As a result, Inaki Pena and Diego Kochen have been called up as backup goalkeepers while teenage prodigy Jofre Torrents also earns a spot as cover for Alejandro Balde at left-back. Robert Lewandowski has not fully recovered from his thigh muscle issue and misses out as well. Marc Bernal has also not been risked as he continues his recovery from the ACL injury. Flick has also called up teenage wonderkids Pedro 'Dro' Fernandez, Toni Fernandez, and Guille Fernandez for the game to provide cover in midfield and attack. However, new signing Roony Bardghji does not make the cut.

Arteta responds to calls for Rice to be made captain
Mikel Arteta has dismissed calls for Martin Ødegaard to be replaced as Arsenal captain, insisting there is 'no question' the midfielder is the right figure to lead the team into another title race. Photo via The debate was reignited this week after former captain Tony Adams urged Arteta to hand the armband to Declan Rice, arguing the England international would better embody the mentality required to turn Arsenal from contenders into champions. Arteta, however, revealed that his decision was backed not just by his staff but overwhelmingly by the players themselves. 'My opinion is clear, and it's not just my opinion. It's all the staff and especially the players,' he said. 'I asked them to vote for the captain and I got the results yesterday. By a mile, by a big, big (margin), by 100 miles, everybody chose the same person, Martin Odegaard, which is the most clear sign that you can have. It's how they feel about who has to be their captain, to defend, to improve, and win the matches that we want to win, so I think there is no question about that.' Photo byØdegaard has worn the armband since 2022 but, after Arsenal's sequence of near-misses in the league and three successive second-place finishes, questions have often been raised over the side's ability to withstand pressure in when it really matters. Adams was blunt in his assessment: 'Every now and again as a manager, you have to put someone who reflects you, who reflects the football club, that you think can actually take you to the next level. You've got someone in there who's going to play every game all season, that's going to encourage people to come in and lay the foundations of a title-winning team. Declan Rice can do that, Odegaard can't. Come on Arteta, make him captain.' Photo byArteta, himself a former Arsenal captain, pushed back against those claims and stressed that leadership was not something decided externally. 'What matters the most is how these guys feel about who needs to lead them, how they feel comfortable, who is going to push them, who is going to give them support when it's happening,' he said. Arsenal begin their season at Manchester United on Sunday before hosting Leeds, with a testing run against Liverpool, Nottingham Forest, Manchester City and Newcastle to follow. Photo byArteta accepts those games will reveal how far his team have come. 'Yes, especially with the consistency that we showed in the last three years, and now the margins, we know how small they are,' he said. 'We know that the competition has increased the level with recruitment, with another year together.' The Arsenal manager confirmed that Viktor Gyokeres and Martin Zubimendi will both be ready to feature at Old Trafford from the start, where Ødegaard will once again lead out the side his teammates voted to follow.

Analyst Estimates: Here's What Brokers Think Of Springer Nature AG & Co. KGaA (ETR:SPG) After Its Second-Quarter Report
It's been a pretty great week for Springer Nature AG & Co. KGaA (ETR:SPG) shareholders, with its shares surging 17% to €22.65 in the week since its latest second-quarter results. Results were roughly in line with estimates, with revenues of €476m and statutory earnings per share of €0.35. Earnings are an important time for investors, as they can track a company's performance, look at what the analysts are forecasting for next year, and see if there's been a change in sentiment towards the company. We've gathered the most recent statutory forecasts to see whether the analysts have changed their earnings models, following these results. We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free. Taking into account the latest results, the most recent consensus for Springer Nature KGaA from six analysts is for revenues of €1.92b in 2025. If met, it would imply an okay 2.4% increase on its revenue over the past 12 months. Yet prior to the latest earnings, the analysts had been anticipated revenues of €1.91b and earnings per share (EPS) of €1.30 in 2025. So we can see that while the consensus made no real change to its revenue estimates, it also no longer provides an earnings per share estimate. This suggests that revenues are what the market is focusing on after the latest results. See our latest analysis for Springer Nature KGaA There's been no real change to the consensus price target of €28.01, with Springer Nature KGaA seemingly executing in line with expectations. That's not the only conclusion we can draw from this data however, as some investors also like to consider the spread in estimates when evaluating analyst price targets. The most optimistic Springer Nature KGaA analyst has a price target of €31.20 per share, while the most pessimistic values it at €24.85. This is a very narrow spread of estimates, implying either that Springer Nature KGaA is an easy company to value, or - more likely - the analysts are relying heavily on some key assumptions. One way to get more context on these forecasts is to look at how they compare to both past performance, and how other companies in the same industry are performing. The analysts are definitely expecting Springer Nature KGaA's growth to accelerate, with the forecast 4.9% annualised growth to the end of 2025 ranking favourably alongside historical growth of 1.4% per annum over the past year. Other similar companies in the industry (with analyst coverage) are also forecast to grow their revenue at 4.4% per year. Factoring in the forecast acceleration in revenue, it's pretty clear that Springer Nature KGaA is expected to grow at about the same rate as the wider industry. The Bottom Line The most important thing to take away is that the analysts reconfirmed their revenue estimates for next year, suggesting that the business is performing in line with expectations. They also reconfirmed their revenue estimates, with the company predicted to grow at about the same rate as the wider industry. There was no real change to the consensus price target, suggesting that the intrinsic value of the business has not undergone any major changes with the latest estimates.
