Passes Under Furniture
For less than the cost of a high-end upright cleaner, you get a robot cleaner that deftly handles hard floors, medium-pile carpets and whatever else you can imagine. The eufy 11S Max is also Amazon top robot vacuum best-seller, and at this price point, it's not surprising to see why.
At a height of only 2.85 inches, it is able to pass under furniture and into crevices that other models cannot. That involves a deeper cleaning throughout your entire house without lifting up furniture or getting down on your hands and knees to reach hard spots. Quiet as a mouse but amazingly powerful, the 11S Max can be run at any time of day or night.
With a runtime of 100 minutes using a single battery, it can clean large spaces without interruption. This comes in handy for open floor plans or houses with many rooms. The BoostIQ technology of the vacuum changes suction power within 1.5 seconds automatically and provides optimal cleaning experience on any flooring. Regardless of what you have (hardwood, tiles, or medium-pile carpet), the eufy 11S Max adapts to provide you with the best results.
The eufy 11S Max features an anti-scratch tempered glass top cover which provides the device with a wonderful aesthetic appeal and also protects it from the usual wear and tear of day-to-day usage. Its infrared sensors enable it to move around objects and fall detection technology prevents it from rolling down the stairs or off the edge of a table.
Unlike some of the more premium models, it doesn't feature Wi-Fi or smartphone connectivity: All is controlled through the remote control included with it or through the controls on the device itself. Sure, that entails not being able to use your phone to tell your vacuum what to do but it also entails no tricky setup or connectivity issues to worry about.
With its price now at an all-time low, there's never been a more ideal time to purchase a robot vacuum.

Here's what CEOs are telling their employees about how to use AI — and how not to lose their jobs to it
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said "efficiency gains" from AI would mean fewer workers at the company. AI's impact on jobs has been hotly debated as it completes or accelerates certain tasks. CEOs have previously given advice on how to survive the AI revolution. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy has told employees that "efficiency gains" from AI would reduce the company's "total corporate workforce" in the next few years. Jassy may be the most prominent CEO to say AI is coming for people's jobs, but he's far from the first. This is the advice CEOs have been giving about how to use AI — and avoid losing your job as a tech revolution threatens to reinvent the world of work. Micha Kaufman, CEO of Fiverr, one of the world's largest freelance marketplaces, warned in an email to his team that: "AI is coming for your jobs. Heck, it's coming for my job too. This is a wake-up call." Whether you are a programmer, designer, product manager, data scientist, or lawyer, "Al is coming for you," he wrote in the email, which he shared on X. "You must understand that what was once considered 'easy tasks' will no longer exist; what was considered 'hard tasks' will be the new easy, and what was considered 'impossible tasks' will be the new hard," he said. Kaufman continued: "If you do not become an exceptional talent at what you do, a master, you will face the need for a career change in a matter of months." "I am not talking about your job at Fiverr," he added. "I am talking about your ability to stay in your profession in the industry." "Every job will be affected, and immediately. It is unquestionable. You're not going to lose your job to an AI, but you're going to lose your job to someone who uses AI," chipmaker Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang said at the Milken Institute's Global Conference in May. "What used to be human-coded softwares running on CPUs are now machine learning generated softwares running on GPUs," Huang said at The Hill and Valley Forum in April. But he added that "every single layer, the tooling of it, the compilers of it, the methodology of it, the way you collect data, curate data, use AI to guard rails, use AI to teach, use AI to keep the AI safe, all of that technology is being invented right now and it creates tons of jobs." "I don't know exactly what's going to happen with AI, but I do know it's going to fundamentally change the way we work, and we have to get ahead of it," Duolingo CEO Luis von Ahn said on LinkedIn earlier this year. He was responding to a backlash against previous comments about enthusiastically embracing AI. "AI is creating uncertainty for all of us, and we can respond to this with fear or curiosity," the language app's CEO wrote. "I've always encouraged our team to embrace new technology (that's why we originally built for mobile instead of desktop), and we are taking that same approach with AI." He added: "To be clear: I do not see AI as replacing what our employees do (we are in fact continuing to hire at the same speed as before). I see it as a tool to accelerate what we do, at the same or better level of quality. And the sooner we learn how to use it, and use it responsibly, the better off we will be in the long run." Lowe's CEO Marvin Ellison said his advice was to "stay as close to the cash register as you can." "When young people come to me and they desire to work in the corporate office, my advice to them is: stay as close to the cash register as you can," Ellison said at a Business Roundtable forum in DC this month. "Stay close to the customers, because you will always have employment opportunities to grow," he added. He also said, "AI isn't going to fix a hole in your roof." "It's not going to respond to an electrical issue in your home. It's not going to stop your water heater from leaking," he said. "You are generation AI," LinkedIn CEO Reid Hoffman said in a video in which he answered questions from college students on how they should navigate the job hunt. "You are AI native, so bringing the fact that you have AI in your tool set is one of the things that makes you enormously attractive," he added. Hoffman said that AI's impact on jobs was a "legitimate worry," but he added that students could try to use it to their advantage. "Look, on this side, it's transforming the workspace, entry-level work, employers' confusion," he said. "But on this side, it's making you able to show your unique capabilities." "In an environment with a bunch of older people, you might be able to help them out," he added. Lattice boss Sarah Franklin told Business Insider that corporate leaders should be focused on how AI can help with efficiency. The HR software company CEO said this includes using AI to give employees "superpowers to where they feel like they're stepping into the Iron Man suit" and accomplishing what they need to in their jobs without feeling swamped. She said that might include using AI to give each employee at a company an executive assistant or a coach. Read the original article on Business Insider

Amazon's Zoox Opens Robotaxi Production Site in California
(Bloomberg) -- Inc.'s Zoox autonomous driving unit opened a robotaxi production facility in California in the latest move by a deep-pocketed tech company to expand the nascent industry. Security Concerns Hit Some of the World's 'Most Livable Cities' JFK AirTrain Cuts Fares 50% This Summer to Lure Riders Off Roads How E-Scooters Conquered (Most of) Europe Taser-Maker Axon Triggers a NIMBY Backlash in its Hometown The site in the San Francisco Bay area city of Hayward will be able to churn out 10,000 purpose-built robotaxis a year once it reaches full scale, Zoox said in a statement on Wednesday. The company expects the plant will create hundreds of jobs in the region as it grows. 'The reality is we are just ready,' Zoox Chief Executive Officer Aicha Evans said in an interview on Bloomberg Tech on Wednesday. The strategy is to start 'putting the capacity in place and then turning it on little by little as we go city by city' with commercial launches, she said. Zoox is one of several companies vying to secure a foothold in the market for autonomous ridehailing. Competitors include Alphabet Inc.'s Waymo unit and Tesla Inc., which plans to begin offering rides in Austin with no driver behind the wheel as early as Sunday. The Amazon-owned company's purpose-built robotaxi is akin to a shuttle and has no steering wheel or pedals, with four inward-facing seats. Zoox would need an exemption from US auto safety rules that require vehicles to have driver controls, though the Trump administration has said it's working on changes to provide those approvals faster. Zoox is 'very grateful' to the administration's work in preparing the US for robotaxis and talks with regulatory bodies are 'going well', Evans said. Zoox is testing or operating robotaxis on a limited basis in San Fransisco and Las Vegas, where it plans to launch its service. Waymo, which uses vehicles made by other automakers that it rigs with self-driving software and sensors, is seen as the market leader and charges fares for rides in multiple US markets. To start, Zoox has a dozen of its robotaxis driving on the Las Vegas Strip, Evans said. The commercial service will launch later in the year and pricing will be competitive with traditional ride-hailing services.

Grifin secures $11M to make investing less intimidating
Grifin, an investment app that simplifies investing by automatically purchasing stocks in brands where users regularly shop, announced on Wednesday that it has secured an $11 million Series A funding round, bringing the total amount raised to around $22 million. Alongside the announcement, Grifin also revealed it has surpassed 500,000 registered users, indicating that its approach to investing resonates with a lot of users. Grifin also claims approximately 1 million total app downloads and 100,000 monthly active users. The company declined to share its valuation. The investment and user growth mark important milestones for Grifin, reflecting investors' confidence in the company's business model and its capacity to disrupt traditional investing methods. The stock market can be intimidating for many Americans — reportedly only 62% of U.S. adults own any stocks directly. The new capital will be invested in building out the company's software engineering and UX design teams, as well as product development. Notable upcoming features include an AI chatbot that Grifin is working on, as well as family plans designed for parents who want to introduce their young adult children to investing. Grifin, founded in 2017 by Aaron Froug, Bo Starr, and Robin Froug, aims to simplify investing for those who find it daunting. Initially based on the concept of 'Stock Where You Shop,' the company evolved in 2024 to an adaptive investing model that automatically invests $1 from users' transactions into stocks related to their purchases. For instance, if a user shops at Walmart, $1 is invested in Walmart stock. Users can also manually adjust their investment amounts. The model has proven successful, as evidenced by Grifin's internal data showing a 234% increase in spending at Walmart six months after users bought its stock. Image Credits:Grifin Another approach Grifin takes to simplify investing is by providing educational material that offers users daily insights into financial literacy. The company plans to expand its educational offerings and develop an AI chatbot that can summarize articles on the platform and provide quick answers to user questions. The chatbot will also provide insights into individual accounts, answering queries such as, 'When did I make this investment?' or 'When did I receive a dividend?' The timing of the rollout is currently unknown, as Grifin wants to ensure that the chatbot delivers accurate answers before its launch.

Boston, MA | REGISTER NOW 'AI can be an amazing feature, but it can also sometimes not give the correct things,' Aaron Froug, who is Grifin's CEO, told TechCrunch. 'So we're just making sure that we're dotting the i's and crossing the t's before we launch something like that.' The educational offerings are particularly important because of Grifin's user base. Many of its users are women between their late 40s and 60s, a group that traditionally has less confidence in their investing knowledge. There are also younger women users aged 18 to 24, which could be why Grifin is considering adding budgeting tools that give users insights into their spending. One of the most requested features is family plans, which would enable users to share their Grifin accounts with family members and introduce investing to younger users. Many younger generations have been hesitant to invest in the stock market. Although the market has improved in recent months, there are still risks involved. 'One of the cool things that we want to do with family plans as well is [allow] parents or grandparents to help fund the accounts for kids or the grandkids, so there isn't too much financial stress,' Aaron Froug added. The round was led by Nava Ventures with participation from Alloy Labs, Draper Associates, Gaingels, Nevcaut Ventures, and TTV Capital. In addition to the funding, Freddie Martignetti, partner at Nava Ventures, joined Grifin's board.
