Lululemon has introduced the uniforms that Team Canada will wear at the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics and Paralympics, marking the brand’s third Games with the Canadian Olympic and Paralympic committees. The collection draws on two years of athlete testing to refine thermoregulation, introduce new adaptive features, and anchor the look in landscapes that define the country. The roster of ambassadors now includes Sidney Crosby, joining athletes across multiple disciplines who helped shape the kit’s design. The retail line launches this week in Canada, the U.S., and Milan, with select items supporting athlete development through the Future Legacy program.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani are beefing over an art garden.
New York Mayor Eric Adams and Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani are clashing over the future of Elizabeth Street Garden, a Nolita art space long caught between development pressures and community support. Adams recently moved to lock in the plot as permanent parkland, a shift that would force Mamdani to seek approval from the state legislature if he wants to revive his campaign pledge to build affordable housing on the site. The move frustrates Mamdani, who argues that Adams is complicating a project meant to serve older New Yorkers while preserving some green space. Supporters of the garden, meanwhile, view the designation as a long-overdue safeguard for a beloved cultural landscape.
Staffers at the Metropolitan Museum of Art are moving to unionize.
Nearly 1,000 employees at the Metropolitan Museum of Art have petitioned the National Labor Relations Board to hold a union election, citing pay inequities, limited job protection, and heavier workloads. If successful, the effort would bring almost half of the museum’s workforce into one of the largest museum unions in the country. Organizers say the push grew out of pandemic-era instability and frustration over decisions made without staff input, including changes to work-from-home policies and rising demands tied to major capital projects. The Met acknowledges workers’ right to organize while noting its existing relationships with other unions and its current compensation structure.
Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai has warned that A.I. tools are “prone to some errors.”
Sundar Pichai cautioned that Alphabet’s A.I. systems still make mistakes and urged users to treat their output as one input among many, not a source of unquestioned truth. Speaking to the BBC, he said current models, including Google’s Gemini tools, can be useful for creative tasks but still struggle with accuracy. He also acknowledged wider market risks, noting that no company—including Google—would escape the fallout if the A.I. boom deflates. Pichai compared the moment to the early internet, where periods of irrational investment didn’t diminish the long-term significance of the technology.
