▸ • The Trump administration is reportedly eyeing an equity stake in OpenAI, while Sriram Krishnan steps down as White House AI advisor to shape policy from the outside.
▸ • Google drops a new Colab CLI, bridging local terminals with remote GPUs for zero-friction AI agent execution.
▸ • Meta decides to cut out the middleman and generate its own AI clickbait feed, because the internet clearly needed more of that.
In a move that blurs the line between state and startup, the Trump administration is reportedly discussing taking an equity stake in OpenAI. Because why just regulate the AI revolution when you can get in on the cap table?
OpenAI is rolling out a new feature to protect sensitive data from prompt injection attacks. It won't make ChatGPT bulletproof, but it's a solid step toward keeping your proprietary code out of the model's next autocomplete suggestion.
Tired of relying on third-party publishers for low-quality engagement bait, Meta has decided to generate its own. The standalone Meta AI app now features a "For You" section populated entirely by AI-hallucinated clickbait articles.
After two years of internal testing and millions of squashed bugs, Alibaba has open-sourced its hybrid AI code review tool. It pairs a deterministic pipeline with an LLM agent to keep the AI from hallucinating line numbers.
A new paper from SRI Lab reveals that pruning large language models to save memory can actually introduce severe security vulnerabilities. Attackers can inject malicious behaviors into weights that are unlikely to be pruned, creating sleeper agents that only activate after the model is compressed.
Researchers have proven that neural networks don't need global clocks to be Turing universal. By updating a single randomly selected neuron per step, this asynchronous approach drastically reduces energy consumption without sacrificing computational power.
An open-source project called `last30days` is trying to fix search by ignoring websites entirely. Instead, it uses an AI agent to scrape real human conversations across walled gardens like Reddit, X, and TikTok, bypassing the SEO spam that plagues Google.
Google just dropped a Command-Line Interface for Colab, allowing developers to provision A100s and run complex ML pipelines directly from their local terminals. It's a massive quality-of-life upgrade for anyone tired of managing browser tabs.
GitHub's `gh-aw` tool just got a major update, replacing legacy token fields with a new AI Credits (AIC) budget system. If your workflows relied on the implicit 25M token fallback, it's time to update your configs.
A new standalone replacement for `ghcid` called Tricorder has entered the chat. It features a background build daemon and a TUI with multiple levels of detail, making Haskell development slightly less painful.
The mayor of Shelbyville, Indiana, was caught on camera claiming that only people who live in "shitty houses" oppose a proposed $2 billion data center. A masterclass in local politics and community relations.
PC gaming storefront GOG had to issue a public apology after accidentally including SS symbols in a promotional newsletter. They blamed a "series of mistakes" and miscommunication with their German QA team. Yikes.
