Enterprises need to understand how much to budget into AI tools, how to weigh the benefits of AI versus new recruits, and how to ensure their training is on point.
A recent study also found that who is using AI tools is a critical business decision, as less experienced developers get far more benefits out of AI than experienced ones.
At Waydev, we’ve spent the past year experimenting on the best way to use generative AI in our own software development processes, developing AI products, and measuring the success of AI tools in software teams.
This is what we’ve learned on how enterprises need to prepare for a serious AI investment in software development.
Then use an engineering management platform (EMP) or software engineering intelligence platform (SEIP) to track whether your adoption of AI is moving the needle on those variables.

Murena, a French startup that sells “de-Googled” smartphones replete with its own flavor of Android, is launching an own-brand mobile network as it throws its hat into the fast-growing mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) ring.
Murena Mobile, as the new service is called, is built atop T-Mobile and is available to U.S. customers only.
With Murena Mobile now thrown into the mix, it has another recurring revenue stream to lean on.
Additionally, customers can’t actually sign up for a Murena Mobile plan at the same time as buying one of its eSIM-supported devices — they have to complete that transaction separately.
“In the future, we could think about a complete package with phone, cloud plan and a mobile plan all combined in a monthly subscription.”

Apple announced today that Apple Music subscribers now have access to collaborative playlists with the launch of iOS 17.3.
When users are in a car and streaming music through Apple Music, other trusted iPhone devices will get an invite to join the session.
Listeners can then control the music from their own devices, even if they don’t have an Apple Music subscription.
The launch of iOS 17.3 also brings Apple’s new Stolen Device Protection feature, which helps prevent thieves from accessing your information.
To turn on Stolen Device Protection, you need to go into your settings then tap “Face ID & Passcode.” You then need to enter your device passcode tap to turn Stolen Device Protection on.

We know your time is precious, so beginning next week, we’re going to make it a lot easier for you to read our best stuff.
For starters, we’re adding a morning newsletter, with the startup and venture and broader tech news we think you want to be tracking more closely.
The newsletter – TechCrunch AM – is being authored by TC veteran Alex Wilhelm, who many of you already know and about whom we think pretty highly.
It’s the ultimate insider newsletter if you work in VC, want to work in VC, work with VCs, or want or do work for a VC-backed company.
Think TechCrunch Space, TechCrunch Crypto, TechCrunch Mobility and TechCrunch Fintech.
![Whatsapp Sticker Maker](https://techgroundnews.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/01/whatsapp-sticker-maker-768x432.png)
WhatsApp announced today that it’s launching a new feature on iOS that lets users create, edit and share their own stickers.
You can personalize stickers using WhatsApp’s suite of editing tools, including text, drawing and the ability to overlay other stickers.
Once you send a custom sticker, it will automatically be saved in your sticker tray so you can use it again whenever you would like to.
If you want to edit an existing sticker, you need to open the sticker tray and long press the sticker you want to edit.
WhatsApp says the new sticker maker, which is already available on WhatsApp web, is rolling out on iOS 17+ over the coming days.

Brave announced today that it’s adding its newly-built CodeLLM to its search engine to deliver results for programming queries.
If Brave Search is your default search engine then all you need to do to access CodeLLM is start a search in your browser’s address bar.
If Brave Search isn’t your default search engine, then you need to head to search.brave.com to conduct your search.
Brave Search, which launched two year ago, has grown to serve an average of 25 million queries per day.
The company says Brave Search is the default search engine for many of Brave’s over 60 million users.

NASA is pushing back the next two Artemis missions to the moon — including the first crewed lunar mission in over fifty years — by around twelve months in order to give commercial partners more time to develop their technology.
The date of the fourth Artemis mission remains unchanged on September 2028.
That’s because SpaceX must also develop in-orbit refueling capabilities, as the architecture involves Starship refueling in space before picking up the astronauts.
After delivering astronauts to the moon, the Starship HLS must then launch from the surface before docking with Orion.
NASA officials also outlined a handful of issues they discovered after the demonstration launch of SLS in late 2022.

We’ve also included some surveys that we feel serve as important reminders of the things that went wrong in 2023.
And if you’re curious about how investors are preparing for 2024, we’ve got you covered with this survey of more than 40 investors.
We spoke to both investors and founders of fusion energy startups to see how much closer we are to running our lives off fusion power.
We spoke to founders about how they’re handling their workforce and the expectations they’re setting.
We spoke to founders about the nature of events they attend, how many events they cross out on their calendars, and how beneficial they’ve been.

As the SEC’s new data breach disclosure rules take effect, here’s what you need to know The controversial regulation represents a major shake-up for U.S. organizationsStarting from today, December 18, publicly-owned companies operating in the U.S. must comply with a new set of rules requiring them to disclose “material” cyber incidents within 96 hours.
In an 8-K filing, breached organizations must describe the incident’s nature, scope, timing, and material impact, including financial and operational.
In addition to the SEC’s new data breach disclosure rules, the regulator has also added a new line item called Item 106 to the Regulation S-K that will be included on a company’s annual Form 10-K filing.
In a recent interview with TechCrunch, Sullivan said he welcomed the SEC’s data breach reporting rules, saying: “We can nitpick the details as much as we want, but this is the right way to do it,” he said.
Until now, many organizations have taken months to report a breach and only did so after they had completed their investigation.

We’re wrapping up our end-of-year robotics Q&A series with this entry from Deepu Talla.
Over the past several years, NVIDIA has established itself a major platform for robotics simulation, prototyping and deployment.
Previous Q&As:What role(s) will generative AI play in the future of robotics?
Simulation: Models will be able to accelerate simulation development, bridging the gaps between 3D technical artists and developers, by building scenes, constructing environments and generating assets.
These GenAI assets will see increased use for synthetic data generation, robot skills training and software testing.
