Codex CLI, an opensource AI coding assistant that runs locally in a users terminal, was released by OpenAI. It offers developers a sandboxed environment by reading, altering, and running code on its own. Because all code stays on the local computer, the tools operation on OpenAIs o4mini model ensures quick processing while protecting data privacy. With experimental Windows compatibility through WSL and support for macOS and Linux, Codex CLI offers crossplatform versatility. To adjust the degree of AI participation, developers can select among Suggest, Auto Edit, and Full Auto modes. The assistant is simple to integrate into workflows because it doesnt require installation or setup and is activated using an API key. As development continues, OpenAI plans for ongoing enhancements.

In 2026, Chinas Hesai Group intends to introduce a nextgeneration LiDAR system with twice the detection range of its AT128 model for Level 3 autonomous driving. Vehicles with level 3 autonomy can make decisions on their own, but in some circumstances, human assistance is still required. David Li, the CEO of Hesai, emphasised the companys contribution to the development of selfdriving technologies, specifically in the areas of perception and obstacle detection. The demand for improved sensor technology is expected to propel the global LiDAR market, which was estimated at $1.9 billion in 2022, to $7.94 billion by 2030. Hesais invention fits in with this trend by tackling important issues in safety and autonomous navigation, which is a big step towards more dependable and effective selfdriving systems. Read More..

South Africa and Nigeria have inked a mining cooperation pact to increase technology transfer, investment, and information sharing. Formally signed in Abuja, the agreement focuses on collaboration in the exploration of Nigerias agro and energy minerals, mineral data sharing, and droneassisted geological mapping. Nigeria wants to revitalise its undeveloped mining industry, which accounts for less than 1% of its GDP and is rich in gold, limestone, lithium, iron ore, and zinc. Due to its wellestablished mining experience, South Africa is an important collaborator in this endeavour. According to officials, the deal will make Nigeria a significant player in the world resources market by promoting industrialisation, generating jobs, and bolstering intraAfrican commerce.

Egypt’s Suez Canal Revenue Plummets by Nearly TwoThirds Amid Red Sea Attacks

From $10.25 billion in 2023 to $3.99 billion in 2024, Egypts Suez Canal revenue fell by almost twothirds. Regional conflicts are mostly to blame for the reduction, especially the Houthi rebel strikes on merchant vessels in the Red Sea that caused maritime routes to be disrupted. Two ships were sunk and four people were killed when more than 100 ships were targeted between November 2023 and January 2024. According to the Suez Canal Authority, only 13,213 ships travelled through in 2024, a 50% decrease from the year before. Although the IMF cautions that trade through the canal dropped 50% in early 2024, creating concerns about the stability of the global supply system, Egypt still offers navigational services despite the turmoil.

To draw in international businesses, especially American enterprises like General Electric and Westinghouse Electric, India plans to relax its nuclear liability laws and limit accidentrelated fines on equipment suppliers. By 2047, the proposed modifications will increase nuclear power capacity to 100 gigawatts and enable a $500 billion trade agreement with the United States. Part of the 2010 Civil Nuclear Liability Damage Act, which exposed providers to infinite liability for mishaps, is eliminated in the proposed law. The government anticipates passing the measures during the July 2025 monsoon session of Parliament. The action makes Indias nuclear industry more investmentfriendly by moving liability from suppliers to operators in accordance with international standards. Read More..

Both the United States and China have trade grievances, IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva underlined, and she urged them to create a more equitable, rulesbased trading system and lessen uncertainty. Ahead of the spring meetings of the IMF and World Bank, she stated that China wants more U.S. involvement to stabilise economic ties, while the U.S. is worried about Chinas intellectual property policies and nontariff obstacles. Georgieva emphasised the necessity for multilateral cooperation by warning that protracted trade disputes could cause global market disruptions. As a move in the right direction towards trade liberalisation, she also applauded Indias tariff reductions. Changes in international commerce are still being tracked by the IMF, especially in light of growing protectionist measures. Read More..

Google Retires CountrySpecific Domains, Redirects All Users to Google.com.

Google has redirected all users to Google.com and formally abolished countryspecific domains, such as google.co.in for India and google.co.uk for the UK. With the goal of simplifying the user experience while preserving local relevance, the shift started on 15 April 2025. To ensure that visitors receive regionspecific content regardless of the site address they enter, Google will now customise search results based on realtime location data rather than domain names. This domain change is more of a formal alignment with current procedures because the organisation has been using locationbased search modifications since 2017. Users with personalised settings might need to check their settings, but the basic search experience is unaltered. The modification doesnt change Googles adherence to regional regulations.
