Meta has released Muse Spark 1.1, an AI tool designed to handle large-scale coding projects, fix bugs, and assist with major code migrations. This move positions Meta directly against competitors like GitHub Copilot and Amazon CodeWhisperer in the AI coding space.
Meta is starting production of its own AI chips designed for flexibility as AI technology evolves. This move could help Meta reduce its reliance on third-party hardware providers.
Character.AI is expanding beyond chatbots with c.ai Series, short interactive videos you can watch and engage with on your phone. This move brings AI-powered storytelling to mobile entertainment in a new way.
General Intuition, a startup backed by Jeff Bezos, believes gaming data could be key to achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI). Unlike current AI models, gaming data provides a rich source of information about how objects move and interact in the real world.
Anthropic, OpenAI, and SpaceX are preparing for massive IPOs that could create more value than all U.S. VC-backed exits since 2000. This marks a historic moment for the tech industry, particularly in AI and space exploration.
ZML, a French AI startup backed by Yann LeCun, has released ZML/LLMD, a free tool that speeds up AI inference across many chips. This could lower costs for developers and businesses using AI.
A new startup believes video game data could be better than the internet for training AI to understand the physical world. This approach might help AI learn how objects move and interact in space and time, a critical step toward artificial general intelligence (AGI).
SpaceXAI released Grok 4.5 on Wednesday, which Elon Musk describes as an 'Opus-class model.' The new version promises to be a cheaper, more efficient alternative to other powerful AI models, making advanced AI more accessible.
Researchers discovered that nine widely used AI tools can be tricked into assembling massive botnets through a technique called "HalluSquatting." This vulnerability exploits AI models' tendency to hallucinate — generating plausible but incorrect responses — instead of refusing harmful requests. The finding underscores a critical security flaw in how AI handles ambiguous or malicious prompts.
General Intuition is betting that millions of hours of video game data can train the foundation models for physical AI, enabling smarter robots with minimal real-world data — a potential 'ChatGPT moment' for robotics.
SK Hynix, a major memory chip maker, is going public in the US to capitalize on AI's booming demand for high-performance chips. This move could open up new investment opportunities in the AI hardware sector.
Savi launched its app to detect and block AI-generated voice and video scams, such as a scammer using a cloned loved one's voice to demand ransom. The company just raised $7 million in seed funding to expand protections for everyday users.
Meta’s new Muse Image model can add real people—like your Instagram friends—into AI-generated photos. This feature is already live in Meta AI, Instagram, and WhatsApp, with Facebook and Messenger coming soon.
Apple’s latest iOS 27 beta update allows users to adjust Siri’s speaking speed and expressivity. This personalization feature aims to make the assistant feel more natural and tailored to individual preferences.
Google has updated its privacy settings to collect more of your data, including images and recordings, to improve its AI models. You can opt out of this data collection through your Google Account settings.
Anthropic's Claude Cowork, an AI assistant for work tasks, is now available on mobile and web. Users can start a task on their desktop, receive status updates on their phone, and pick up the finished output from any device, even if their laptop is closed.
Forterra has deployed over 100 self-driving ATVs in Ukraine, marking the first use of American autonomous ground vehicles in combat. These vehicles are designed to transport supplies and reduce human risk in dangerous areas.
An AI agent executed a real-world ransomware attack, but humans still chose the victim, set up infrastructure, and supplied stolen credentials. This shows AI's role in cybercrime is growing, but not yet fully autonomous.
The White House has issued an executive order warning of national security risks if post-quantum cryptography isn't adopted in time, drastically shortening the deadline for federal agencies to transition away from quantum-vulnerable encryption.
While most Americans remain skeptical of AI in education, some wealthy families are embracing AI-powered tutors from companies like Forge Prep and Alpha to replace traditional schooling entirely. This trend raises serious questions about educational equity and the social development of children.
Vercel's CEO argues that separating AI models from agents is crucial for better performance and cost efficiency. This shift could make AI tools faster and more affordable for businesses and developers.
Station F, Europe's largest startup campus founded by French billionaire Xavier Niel, is gearing up for a new edition of its F/ai accelerator program to strengthen its position as a launchpad for promising AI startups. The initiative aims to position Paris as a key hub for AI innovation.
Reddit is deploying large language models (LLMs) to fight a spam epidemic largely created by those same AI tools. The move reflects a growing arms race as platforms are forced to fight fire with fire to keep discussions authentic.
Mistral AI is a French startup developing advanced AI models with a focus on open-source accessibility. The company has raised significant funding and aims to make cutting-edge AI available to everyone.
