This seems super cool. What’s sobering to remember though is that it was invented 20 years ago and only just got FDA approval earlier this year

I hate people linking to paywalled articles, wish it was against the HN terms. Here’s another link to an article about the acquisition; https://siliconangle.com/2026/08/16/stripe-reportedly-finali...

The ABC in Australia feels so opinionated and tilted to the “left” side of politics whenever I’ve watched it on the TV. And it may just have been that news show or the specific host but it makes it not enjoyable to watch when it seems there

I'm from Asana so I'm probably biased too :) and I agree single-player agents are easier, but multi-player agents that understand end to end workflows etc. are very powerful. That's what we've built and yes it took a lot

But isn't there the raw intelligence of a smart model and then the practical intelligence fuelled by how many parameters it has? You probably will barely be able to fit a 70 billion parameter model on a phone in 3-4 years let alone a 2

How would it compare to Wispr Flow? I recently started using it and it feels so much more robust than anything out there (and in fact the one in iOS and MacOS 26 seemed pretty poor in comparison)... and do we know if Wispr Flow uses the Whi

Surely it’ll be an issue some day for other space activities with all the SpaceX kit up there? I know space is very large :) but surely it’d be hard to scan, calculate and control trajectories of millions of orbiting tiny things when you’re

A cool detail in the article that you can look up in the news is the French government investing €650m in AI, including technology (not just implementation, training and licensing it seems). Hope some of it is for further funding and equity

Is this Apple encouraging developers to go through their api abstraction layer to use LLMs so that when they launch their own (which I think we’ve heard they’ve been spending lots of money on training and might be somehow involved with Siri

Doesn't inference have very good profit margins* but all the losses come from training? * For now, when they don't have to compete much against companies like DeepSeek who supplies inference at 1/10th of the cost

I'm quite sure (and you could find it somewhere of course) that the Chinese models would've been fine-tuned for certain leanings and world views. Even so, at what point is even the quality risk (assuming your use case won't b

I've just started listening to the book "Brave new world" (no spoilers please!) and this is literally how the book begins (but with humans) - what could possibly go wrong!

Hi, congrats on the launch! Firstly, it doesn’t seem to work for me and my wife - we hold the phones together but clicking start does nothing (and we’ve accepted Bluetooth etc). Secondly, I wonder if you’ll have a massive chicken and egg is

Yes. And it can be done in less "communist" ways; have countries' governments invest serious capital (even if they have to raise debt - they do anyway) in income producing assets related to AI, like large stakes in AI labs, b

I have mixed feelings about this kind of thing; on one hand, holding big companies to account is important. On the other, sites like this can feel noisy and probably misleading. Of course Anthropic can protect their platform from technical
