Agent Computers Are Coming 🤯!

AMD says the next evolution of PCs won’t be apps. It will be AI agents running your computer for you.

AMD describes “Agent Computers” as AI-native PCs designed to run autonomous AI agents continuously, rather than waiting for users to manually operate software.

Rather than opening apps and completing every step yourself, you simply assign a goal to an AI agent, and it handles the process.

These agents could operate continuously in the background, performing tasks such as:

> Managing email and schedules
> Searching and organizing information
> Coordinating workflows across apps
> Running research or data analysis

This shift is enabled by AI hardware like AMD Ryzen AI processors, which combine CPU, GPU, and NPU to run AI models locally with ~50–60 TOPS of AI compute 👀

Basically, Computers soon stop being tools we operate and start becoming systems that work on our behalf lol..

$SIVE - NEXT $LITE 🔥

Sivers Semiconductors is ridiculously undervalued at ~$130M market cap with massive AI photonics tailwinds ahead.

High-power CW-DFB lasers powering Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) for hyperscalers, fresh LiDAR ramp starting Q4 2026 ($53–138M cumulative potential), killer partnerships with $POET & Ayar Labs, plus SATCOM wins, this tiny player is positioned for explosive revenue inflection in 2026/27.

Hyper-bull case? 📈

10x+ easy by 2030 as CPO adoption explodes.

$OSS partner $MTEK Secures Order from Governmental Defense Entity for AI-Edge Video Systems

​Maris-Tech Ltd. has announced a new order from a governmental defense entity for systems supporting situational awareness and drone video payloads. This order highlights the company’s expanding footprint in the high-growth defense technology sector.

​Key Program Details:

🔹​Diamond Ultra Platform: Deployed for advanced situational awareness and perimeter defense systems.
🔹​Jupiter Platform: Integrated into drone video payload systems for real-time, mission-critical processing.
🔹​Tactical Edge Intelligence: The order includes both delivery and development of custom AI applications to enhance operational effectiveness in complex security environments.
🔹​Strategic Momentum: CEO Israel Bar noted this further validates the relevance of Maris-Tech’s AI-based edge video solutions for next-generation defense needs.

​As global defense agencies pivot toward autonomous and intelligent surveillance, Maris-Tech continues to provide the essential "eyes and brains" for the modern battlespace.

I still see $MTEK as an attractive acquisition target for $OSS, as it is favorably valued and would perfectly expand the technological value chain.

$ONDS Range. Endurance. UK defense establishment. Ondas just got all three on a Monday morning. 🇬🇧🛫🔥

Until today, Ondas always had a range and endurance problem, but Rotron Aero just solved it.

Ondas just secured long-range VTOL assets, autonomous strike platforms, and engines engineered for missions in demanding environments.

This is the kind of hardware that turns a strong portfolio into an operationally complete platform.

What’s more, Rotron is UK-based with deep ties to the Ministry of Defence and a physical presence inside the UK defense establishment.

This gives Ondas a “fast pass” to major UK and NATO defense programs as they continue to expand their global footprint 👊🏼

Welcome to the team, Rotron!

IRAN JUST LOST ITS ONLY REAL WEAPON

Iran had one thing the US feared.

Thousands of drones and missiles.

Cheap. Fast. Unstoppable in volume.

The US has been systematically destroying every launch site.

Every missile factory. Every storage depot.

241 out of 262 ballistic missiles intercepted.

16 minelaying ships sunk.

90+ military targets destroyed in one night on Kharg Island.

Iran is now fighting a war with broken weapons.

And they know it.
