Times Square’s newest icon isn’t a flashing screen or someone in a knockoff Spider-Man suit—it’s a 12-foot bronze sculpture of a young woman, and she’s commanding attention in the best way.

Artist Thomas J. Price just dropped "Grounded in the Stars,” a massive public art piece on the north side of Duffy Square that challenges who we see in monumental spaces—and why. She’s wearing everyday clothes, standing tall and unapologetically taking up space in a spot usually dominated by men (statues included 👀).

This is your sign to actually stop and stare. She’ll be posted up through June 17.

A new restaurant in Los Gatos, California, is using robots to make burgers. ABB Robotics and BurgerBots have teamed up to fully automate the process using ABB’s IRB 360 FlexPicker and YuMi robots.

The system builds a burger in just 27 seconds. It uses real-time tracking and QR codes to place each topping accurately and maintain hygiene.

This compact robot setup helps improve speed, consistency, and efficiency. It also reduces boring, repetitive tasks for workers so they can focus more on customer service.
