WhatsApp is introducing a new feature that allows users to copy specific parts of messages, such as a word or a sentence, instead of the entire text. This enhancement aims to make the app more user-friendly and efficient, especially during work. The feature works through a simple tap-and-hold gesture, followed by selecting the desired text and using the copy option. It will be available across personal chats, group chats, and channels. iOS users have already started receiving the update.

Dr. A.F.M. Shahen Shah, a Bangladeshi-Turkish researcher at Yildiz Technical University, has developed a multi-drone communication system that can restore mobile networks during natural disasters. These AI-powered drones act as mobile base stations in the sky, reconnecting people even when ground towers fail. His invention, praised internationally and published in the Drones Journal, aims to accelerate rescue operations and save lives. Dr. Shahen hopes to implement the technology in Bangladesh, a country prone to frequent floods and cyclones.

WhatsApp is set to launch a multi-account feature allowing users to run two accounts on one phone.

Each account will have separate chats, notifications, and settings. Currently in development, the feature is expected to roll out soon, offering greater convenience and flexibility to users.

Nvidia’s market cap plunged by nearly $600 billion, the largest single-day loss in U.S. history, as its stock fell 17% to $118.58. The drop was triggered by competition from China’s DeepSeek, which unveiled a cost-effective AI model. Concerns over declining GPU demand also impacted Broadcom, Dell, and Oracle. Analysts believe AI growth will boost compute demand long-term. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s net worth dropped by $21 billion. DeepSeek’s app surpassed ChatGPT as the most-downloaded in the U.S., escalating the global AI race.

The Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) has proposed reducing broadband internet costs for consumers by up to 20%. If approved by the Ministry of Finance, a 5 Mbps connection could drop from 500 BDT to 400 BDT, with similar reductions for higher speeds. The proposal aims to make internet more affordable but has raised concerns among ISPs about financial strain and potential impact on service quality. Final approval from the government is awaited to implement the new pricing.
