The Rise of Wi-Fi 7: Speed, Stability, and Efficiency

Wi-Fi 7, officially certified in early 2024, is now moving into mainstream use worldwide. It brings transformative upgrades such as wider 320 MHz channels, Multi-Link Operation (MLO), and 4K-QAM modulation—together enabling multi-gigabit speeds with far greater reliability. By allowing devices to use several frequency bands simultaneously, Wi-Fi 7 drastically reduces latency and network congestion. The technology is especially beneficial in crowded homes, large offices, and smart environments where dozens of devices demand seamless connectivity. Analysts project that 2025 will be the pivotal year for Wi-Fi 7 adoption across smartphones, laptops, routers, and enterprise networks.

 Preparing for Wi-Fi 8: Ultra-Reliable, Low-Latency Connectivity

While Wi-Fi 7 dominates 2025 headlines, researchers and industry leaders are already developing Wi-Fi 8 (IEEE 802.11bn). Unlike its predecessors that focused mainly on raw speed, Wi-Fi 8 emphasizes deterministic performance—meaning ultra-low latency, minimal jitter, and exceptional reliability. This next generation aims to power mission-critical applications such as industrial automation, real-time augmented reality, autonomous systems, and high-density IoT networks. Although the standard is expected around 2028, early research and pilot programs are shaping how Wi-Fi will evolve beyond entertainment and communication into infrastructure-level reliability.


 Smarter Networks for IoT and Everyday Devices

The Wi-Fi Alliance and global industry partners are focusing on making wireless networks not just faster, but smarter and more adaptive. Modern homes and offices now host dozens of connected devices—from security cameras and smart thermostats to wearables and appliances—all competing for bandwidth. Certification programs are evolving to ensure energy efficiency, interoperability, and smooth onboarding for IoT devices. With these changes, Wi-Fi networks are becoming increasingly intelligent—automatically prioritizing traffic, managing congestion, and maintaining strong quality-of-service standards even in dense environments.

Real-World Considerations and Upgrade Recommendations

Despite the excitement, upgrading to Wi-Fi 7 is not mandatory for everyone. For typical users with stable connectivity, proper router placement, and moderate device counts, existing Wi-Fi 6 or 6E networks remain sufficient. However, users facing dead zones, frequent dropouts, or slow speeds due to heavy device loads should consider upgrading. Mesh Wi-Fi systems, firmware updates, and 6 GHz band support can significantly enhance performance. Looking ahead, investing in Wi-Fi 7 equipment ensures long-term readiness as more devices adopt the new standard, bridging today’s high-speed demands with the ultra-reliable wireless future of Wi-Fi 8.

AI + coding in industry adoption

Image
 “Vibe Coding” / AI-driven natural-language coding The concept of vibe coding (i.e. writing software via natural language prompts rather than detailed manual coding) is gaining traction.It’s being viewed as an extension of “software + AI agents” — letting people express intent, and letting AI fill in boilerplate, structure, and details.But there are warnings: automatically generated code can carry security risks (e.g. reintroducing known vulnerabilities) if not carefully reviewed. Agentic / AI coding tool advances  At DevDay 2025 , OpenAI introduced an Agent Kit and updates to its Codex model, to better support building AI agents.GitHub (via Copilot) is embedding agents that can autonomously fix bugs, add features, and improve documentation — operating within your repo, analyzing code context, and proposing changes.Microsoft is planning to evolve GitHub further to be more AI-native, so that coding, security, analytics, etc., are more tightly integrated.

Computer Science Among Majors With Highest Unemployment In US

Image
Computer science has been one of the most popular college majors in recent years. Many students choose it believing it offers strong job prospects and high salaries. However, recent data reveals a different story in the United States: many graduates are struggling to find jobs in the field. According to a report by Newsweek, based on data from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, computer science ranks seventh among undergraduate majors with the highest unemployment rate-currently at 6.1 percent. This places it just behind other majors like physics (7.8 percent). HR consultant Bryan Driscoll told Newsweek that many students are given unrealistic expectations about what a computer science degree guarantees. He pointed out that despite working hard and choosing a "top" major, many graduates face tough competition, limited opportunities, and growing student debt. He added that in the current market, a candidate's background or university name often outweighs their actual sk...
