Jeff Holden's Atomic Machines left six years of stealth on October 7, 2026, with $250 million and a claim that code alone can drive the manufacture of tiny machines. Its first product is a 150-amp relay for AI data centers. Here is what the company says, what independent reports confirm, and what no

A standing page on where Super Intelligence models actually stand, built from the scoreboards the Super Intelligence companies don't run. It covers who leads on human votes versus test batteries, how fast the models are improving, what a point of intelligence costs, how far open models trail, and wh

Google DeepMind says Gemini 4 Argon beats Claude Opus 5.5, Claude Fable 5.1 and GPT-6 Astra on 13 of 19 benchmarks. I read the table, the methodology PDF and the independent scoreboards. The wins are real and mostly don't depend on Google grading its own homework, but the human-vote leaderboard and

SpaceX agreed to buy 14 MHz of paired 800 MHz spectrum from Grain Management, the missing low-band layer Starlink Mobile needs to reach indoors. Here is what was actually bought, why 800 MHz matters, and what is still unproven.

A post on X describes an account takeover that never touched the victim's phone: a jammed line sent Telegram's "code by phone call" to voicemail, and the attacker listened in. What happened, why it works, and the iPhone settings that close it.

A video making the rounds on X shows a wall of phone screens, each one a social media account posting, replying and liking on its own — the poster's caption claims a single AI dashboard is orchestrating fifty of them at once. The clip is a provocation, not a product demo, but the real numbers behind

On September 22, Alibaba's chip unit T-Head unveiled the Zhenwu V900 at the company's Apsara Conference in Hangzhou — 216GB of on-package memory, a 1,200GB/s interconnect, and clusters scaling to 500,000 units, which CEO Eddie Wu called "the most powerful AI chip in China today." The obvious story i

AIR Security disclosed "Plugin4Shell" on September 17, 2026 — a zero-click flaw in Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, GitHub Copilot and Gemini CLI that let a hijacked git branch silently swap in different code than the one a plugin manifest had pinned by commit hash. OpenAI's own four-line patch note descr

On September 22, 2026, Anthropic shipped Claude Opus 5.5 — its first new model since CEO Dario Amodei published an essay ten days earlier arguing the whole industry should deliberately slow down. It's 40 percent cheaper than Opus 5, runs about 30 percent faster, performs close to the pricier Fable 5

On 18 September Alibaba's Qwen team shipped Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash — one model that takes text, images, audio and video, holds a million tokens of context, and decides for itself which parts of a two-hour video are worth watching. The release is the news, but the program behind it is the story: Qwen pas

Apple's new Mac Studio ships September 22 with M5 Max and M5 Ultra chips, up to 512GB of unified memory, and the same 7.7-inch-square case it's shipped since 2023. I've always liked Apple machines, and I was expecting a smaller redesign — it isn't one, and the real story turns out to be better than

A phone-forensics demonstration circulating on X this week is a reminder that "only law enforcement has this" was never really the boundary — the tools, the vendors and the exploits all move. What a locked iPhone actually protects, what Advanced Data Protection does and doesn't cover, and a short hi

Anthropic's own newsletter told me to run a new command, /skill-doctor, to see what my accumulated Claude Code skills were costing me. It failed three times, and once, when it printed the true reason why, the assistant's own reply talked past it. The fourth try stopped refusing the connection and ga

In one week in September 2026: OpenAI shipped a model its president called the start of the AGI era, then asked Congress for mandatory safety rules it had spent two years opposing; it put its most prominent internal critic on the board, and he said the industry was not on track; Anthropic published

The A20 Pro in the iPhone 18 Pro is the first phone chip made on a "2-nanometre" process. Nothing on it is two nanometres wide; the number stopped measuring anything about a decade ago. What did change is real and fourteen years overdue: the transistor's gate now wraps all the way around the channel

For three months I have worked every day with an AI coding assistant that wakes up each session knowing nothing about the last one. What it knows, it reads from a file. That file grew to 685 kilobytes, went stale in ways that reached the real-money side of the project, and turned into the best lesso

Some friends and I have been arguing about whether it will ever seem normal to spend six million tokens in eleven minutes to make a blog post — and whether a world where the well-off can run AI flat out leaves everyone else with the crumbs. So I priced the tokens, traced where the price is going, an
