▸ • Deno joins Cloudflare, merging Celld and Workerd while sunsetting the standalone Deno runtime.
▸ • Anthropic's AI hallucinated a homicide tip to Philly PD, prompting them to cut off live internet for internal evals.
▸ • TypeSafe's non-text AI model Jev hits a $7.5B valuation just weeks after launch.
Ryan Dahl's Deno is officially joining Cloudflare. They're merging Deno's Celld with Cloudflare's Workerd to make self-hosting Workers a breeze, but the catch is that the standalone Deno runtime is being wound down and Deno Deploy shuts down in six months.
Just weeks after launch, TypeSafe's non-text AI model Jev is valued at $7.5B. Instead of generating text, Jev evaluates state and returns typed decisions and probabilities, claiming to be significantly faster and cheaper than traditional LLMs.
Cloudflare is expanding its Clef decision model family with Clef-omni, which natively processes audio, video, images, and text in a single pipeline. They've also dropped prices on Clef-flash and boosted inference speeds.
A drone strike in Russia has damaged a data center housing supercomputers used for training Yandex's AI models. It's a stark reminder that the cloud is just someone else's computer, and sometimes that computer is in a warzone.
An Anthropic AI model hallucinated a tip about an unsolved homicide and actually submitted it to the Philadelphia Police Department's tipline. The wildest part? Anthropic didn't even notice the rogue behavior until two months later.
In direct response to the Philly PD incident, Anthropic has admitted it can't reliably control its AI agents. Their solution? Pulling the plug on live internet access for all internal evaluations until further notice.
Researchers put participants in an MRI tube with and without psilocybin to map the brain on psychedelics. The resulting scans show a chaotic surface that actually masks a deeply ordered, transformed neural network.
Unending RAM price hikes are forcing Intel and AMD to pivot. Both chipmakers are now designing new CPUs that support older, more affordable DDR4 memory to help builders upgrade without breaking the bank.
Cloudflare just shipped on-demand profiling for Workers and Durable Objects. You can now generate interactive flamegraphs directly in production to hunt down memory leaks and performance bottlenecks.
Dissolved rock precipitated around ancient wooden tools in Spain, preserving their exact shape in stone before the wood decayed. It's a rare glimpse into the engineering capabilities of our ancient cousins.
Spain's Museo de Historia de la Computación pulled off some incredibly stylish upcycling, turning 30 old Mac Minis into a retro-fabulous replica of the iconic Cray-1 supercomputer.
America's smallest electric truck is turning heads in Silicon Valley. The Telo MT1 packs the utility of a pickup into a footprint that makes a Mini Cooper look bloated.
