▸ • Yann LeCun's new venture, AMI Labs, just casually raised a $1.03 billion seed round to build AI 'world models.'
▸ • Redox OS takes a hard stance against AI-generated code, implementing a strict no-LLM policy for contributors.
▸ • Apple's supply chain shift hits a milestone, with 25% of all iPhones now manufactured in India.
Meta's chief AI scientist Yann LeCun has co-founded AMI Labs, and they just raised a staggering $1.03 billion seed round at a $3.5B pre-money valuation. The goal? Building 'world models' that understand physical reality better than current LLMs.
The great supply chain migration continues. Apple reportedly produced 55 million units in India last year, meaning one in four iPhones is now assembled outside of China.
The fitness wearable company is launching a new blood testing panel specifically for women's health via Whoop Labs. They're also rolling out app features to track hormonal changes during menstrual cycles.
That rumored 'HomePod with a screen' is apparently getting pushed back to the fall to launch alongside iOS 27. Because why release hardware now when you can wait for the software to catch up?
In a fascinating pushback against the AI coding wave, the Rust-based Redox OS project has adopted a strict 'no-LLM' policy. Contributors must now sign a Certificate of Origin proving their code was written by a human, prioritizing legal clarity and code quality over AI-assisted speed.
Google researchers discovered that an iPhone hacking toolkit used by Russian and Chinese espionage groups likely originated from a U.S. military contractor. It's a stark reminder that cyber weapons rarely stay in the hands of their creators.
Meta's own Oversight Board has called out the company's methods for identifying deepfakes as 'not robust or comprehensive enough.' They're pushing for serious AI labeling to combat the rapid spread of misinformation.
Researchers from DeepMind and UC Berkeley have developed LoGeR, a new method for generating 3D reconstructions from massive video files. It's a significant leap forward for spatial computing and environment mapping.
Cloudflare just dropped a new stateful vulnerability scanner that uses AI to build API call graphs. It's designed to proactively hunt down logic flaws that standard defensive tools completely miss.
As AI agents get more autonomy, security becomes a nightmare. GitHub just published a deep dive into the threat model and security architecture they use to safely run agentic workflows in GitHub Actions, focusing on isolation and constrained outputs.
One developer took the 'quantified self' movement to its absolute logical extreme by logging every aspect of their existence into a single database. It's equal parts impressive engineering and slightly terrifying dedication.
Uzum, an e-commerce and fintech ecosystem in Uzbekistan, just saw its valuation jump 50% to $2.3 billion in seven months. They're now processing $11B in payments for 20 million users.
