🤖 Claude Mythos hacks macOS with new exploit
Claude Mythos linked two previously unknown bugs to fully compromise macOS memory and gain complete system access.
The exploit targets one of the toughest operating systems for hackers, breaking into protected parts of macOS.
Researchers were so surprised they took the vulnerability directly to Apple's office, where it is now under review without a patch yet.

🍏 iPhone Case Grows Real Plants Inside
Designer Daniel Idle created a case for the iPhone 16 Pro Max that contains live plants sealed inside a transparent resin back. Moss, small shoots, and stabilized soil form a closed moisture cycle within the case.
The system recycles moisture as it evaporates and condenses inside the resin cavity. Light passes through the clear case to feed the plants, while the substrate slowly releases nutrients.
The case is 3D modeled with precise cutouts for the camera and charging port, keeping the phone fully functional.

🤖 Claude AI recovers $400K in lost Bitcoin
A user known as Cprkrn lost access to 5 bitcoins bought for about $250 each after changing his wallet password while drunk. The bitcoins were locked in an old file on a forgotten laptop for 11 years, now worth around $398,000.
He fed the old wallet files to the AI Claude, which did not crack encryption but found an earlier wallet backup predating the password change.
Combined with his saved recovery phrase, this allowed access without breaking any crypto security.

🤖 Tokyo lab runs entirely on robots
The Robotics Innovation Center at Tokyo's Institute of Science operates with no human staff. Its main robot, Maholo LabDroid, uses two robotic arms to handle precise reagent transfers, control temperature-sensitive equipment, and manage cell cultures.
The lab plans to expand from 10 robots now to 2,000 by 2040, aiming to automate the entire research cycle from hypothesis to experiment. Humanoid robots fit existing human-designed lab equipment, avoiding costly infrastructure changes.

👹 MIT Builds Robot from 12 Labubu Heads
Researchers at MIT created a moving spherical dodecahedron robot using twelve detached Labubu figurine heads, naming it Labububot.
The project challenges typical social robot design, which aims to be cute and friendly to avoid the "uncanny valley"-a discomfort zone where robots look almost human but feel unsettling.
Instead, the team leans on monster theory, suggesting a robot that causes slight unease can engage users more deeply by provoking thought rather than comfort.
They shared full assembly instructions and files on GitHub for those interested in building their own version.

🔍 DeepMind reinvents the mouse pointer
DeepMind created an AI-powered mouse pointer that acts as a context highlighter for an embedded agent. You can point at a table and ask the agent to make a chart or select a restaurant name in a photo to book it for you.
This pointer shifts some cognitive load from the user by removing the need to write detailed prompts. You just click on something and say commands like “tell me about THIS” or “move THIS HERE.”
The system combines speech with gestures, making interaction more natural. It is already available in Gemini in Chrome and Google AI Studio, and will be integrated into upcoming GoogleBook laptops designed for AI experiences.

🤖 Oracle shifts to AI-generated code after cutting 10,000 developers
Larry Ellison said Oracle cut over 10,000 developers while freezing legacy projects and reallocating capital to AI. The company has moved to AI-generated code across all projects.
He argues manual programming is close to obsolete. Developers no longer write code or define algorithms step by step, but express intent that AI turns into working systems.
The shift changes how teams operate. CEOs are moving faster than engineering teams in adopting AI workflows, driving earlier staffing changes.

👍 Claude adds Dispatch mode for remote task execution from phone
Anthropic introduced Dispatch, a mode that lets users assign tasks to Claude from anywhere via phone. The agent can access files on a PC, run code, and execute tasks without direct user interaction.
The feature turns Claude into a more autonomous system with remote control over workflows.
This puts it in direct competition with tools like OpenClaw and intensifies the race around autonomous AI assistants.

🚀 Musk launches Terafab to build chips for Tesla, SpaceX, and xAI
Elon Musk announced Terafab, a chip factory in Austin run by Tesla and SpaceX. The project aims to produce chips in-house as current suppliers cannot meet demand.
The facility will start as a smaller advanced fab capable of designing and testing chips. Plans include 2 nm production. It will make edge chips for cars and robots, plus high-power chips for space and AI workloads, with xAI as a main user.
The long-term target is up to a terawatt of compute capacity per year, including systems in orbit.
Chip supply is becoming a bottleneck for AI and robotics growth.

🤖 Tesollo unveils robotic hand that can handle fragile objects
Korean startup Tesollo introduced the DG-5F-S, a five-finger robotic hand with 20 degrees of freedom. It measures 21 cm and weighs 880 grams.
The key feature is compliant joints with backdrivability. The hand can absorb force and interact with objects without damaging them, which is critical for tasks around people.
The design focuses on compatibility with existing humanoid platforms, with size and mounting adapted for integration.
Handling delicate objects remains a core bottleneck for humanoid robotics.

💻 Andrej Karpathy says he stopped writing code since December
https://youtu.be/kwSVtQ7dziU?si=ulqfAuTnh47kO04t, Karpathy said he wrote about 80% of his code himself in October 2025 and delegated 20% to AI agents. Since December, he has not written a single line of code.
He frames it as a task definition problem. If the agent writes bad code, the issue is how the task is given.
The shift reflects rapid improvement in coding agents over a short period.
The interview covers open source, jobs, and robotics, and is worth watching.

🪧 San Francisco protest targets AI companies over frontier development
This past weekend, a large crowd marched through San Francisco, stopping at offices of major AI companies. Protesters called on CEOs to publicly commit to pausing frontier AI development.
Signs read “Stop the AI race,” “Don’t build Skynet,” “Shut down OpenAI,” and “AI will kill us.” Some referenced Nobel laureates and science fiction authors.
The protest focuses on coordinated limits on advanced AI work.
Public pressure around AI development is becoming more visible.

🤖 OpenAI plans desktop superapp combining ChatGPT, Codex, and browser
OpenAI is working on a desktop “superapp” that combines ChatGPT, Codex, and its browser into one product. The goal is to simplify the experience and refocus after a year of fragmented launches.
The app will center on agentic AI. Systems will run tasks on the user’s computer, including coding and data analysis. Greg Brockman will oversee the revamp, while Fidji Simo leads sales for the new product.
The shift follows internal concerns about too many separate apps slowing development and lowering product quality.

⚡️ BYD rolls out ultra-fast EV chargers in China with 9–12 min full charge
BYD is launching a charging network in China with peak power up to 1500 kW. The system can charge an EV to 100% in 9–12 minutes. Up to 20,000 stations are planned across the country by year end.
Only a few models can currently use the full power. The rollout still moves charging closer to refueling time.
BYD is also preparing to expand the network into Europe.

⚙️ Benz built the first gasoline car in 1886 with just 0.75 hp
The Benz Patent-Motorwagen, created by Karl Benz in 1886, is considered the first car with an internal combustion engine. It had three wheels and a top speed of about 16 km/h.
The vehicle produced around 0.75 horsepower and was controlled with two levers, one for steering and one for throttle.
Only 25 units were built, and none of the originals survived. The footage shows a replica.
Benz later merged with Gottlieb Daimler’s company to form Mercedes-Benz.

👨🔧 Nvidia shows DLSS 5 that turns low-quality graphics into photorealistic visuals in real time
Nvidia introduced DLSS 5, a new version of its rendering tech that can convert simple low-quality graphics into photorealistic output.
Similar approaches have been used in photo and video generation pipelines for about a year, but Nvidia brings this into real-time rendering.
The system can take schematic 3D scenes and upscale them to near-photoreal quality during runtime.
This could extend to AI workflows, where simple generated scenes are later refined into high-quality visuals.
