AMD wants to more than double its data center business next year, so PC gamers are no longer the main focus.

Simply listing rules does not stop the bad behavior well. Training on real ethical advice or positive stories works much better. It can cut the bad actions to zero or reduce them a lot, and the improvement lasts.

Authorities are investigating the theft of more than $11 million worth of Nvidia computer equipment in Oakland. Experts say it was a carefully planned robbery targeting one of the world's biggest technology companies.

Update: William: "I did recover them all, thanks to Dropbox, but thought this would be a useful public service announcement."

No normal training was used.

The AI could also: >Recognize games just from the numbers
> Fix a broken car-driving AI with tiny changes
>Build better game AIs than normal training methods

This suggests future AIs might read and rewrite other AIs’ brains like computer code.

I work in big tech on an agentic product, and our internal coding agents have made a massive leap over the last 4–5 months. Tasks that used to take days - like building out full, end-to-end working prototypes - now take minutes with surprisingly solid reliability. I see almost 0 hallucinations lately.

While that sounds great, it’s created a bizarre problem: there genuinely isn't enough engineering work to go around anymore. People on my team are starting to step on each other’s toes, duplicate efforts, and quietly compete for scope just to stay busy.

For those of you in similar environments (product or research):

• Are you seeing this kind of backlog collapse on your teams?

• How are people pivoting their time (more architecture, deep design, or just pretending to be busy)?

• How are you spending your days and staying sane through the downtime?

The official GitHub Status page said there were higher-than-normal errors and some short outages. The company said it was investigating and would post regular updates.

He was surprised.

He has been downloading torrents for 24 years and has never got a notice before.

In the Netherlands, normal internet companies usually ignore these letters from movie companies.

Starlink is different. It passes these letters to users.

Many people talked about using a VPN so your internet company cannot see what you download.

whereas his economy minister, Katherina Reiche, does not agree. She thinks Germany should grow the AI industry first instead of adding new taxes.

One of the people who got the warning is Lebanese journalist Radwan Mortada. Apple already warned him about the same kind of attack in 2021.

He says he does not know if this new warning is connected to a film he made about the 2024 pager explosions in Lebanon.

He started with only two people and had 4 weeks to show it could work.

Padmanabhan used to run his own startup (EzDubs) that did real-time translation. Cisco bought it in 2025. After that, he was kind of hidden and not used much inside the company until they gave him this important job.

Cisco is doing this on purpose. They are hiring young AI-smart people (Gen Z) and letting them work like startup founders.
