⌨️ AMD unveils Helios, a complete AI rack boasting 72 MI455X accelerators, 31 TB of HBM4 memory, and a formidable 2.9 exaFLOPS of performance. This marks AMD's inaugural effort to challenge Nvidia by offering an entire system for training massive AI models, rather than just standalone chips.

🌟 AI-generated "doctors" and health promoters are rampant on Facebook and Instagram, dispensing incorrect medical advice to sell unverified supplements. These videos use convincing AI avatars, sometimes even with fake degrees, to build credibility. For just $10 apiece, producers create 1200 AI videos daily to market products on TikTok and Meta. One example, the 'Scalpetic' herbal supplement, was advertised to treat kidney diseases but caused dangerous side effects for users. While platforms like TikTok try to block these accounts, many users still cannot easily identify these AI-fabricated advertisements.

🦠The FDA has approved lenacapavir, a groundbreaking pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) against HIV. Administered just twice yearly, studies show it's nearly 100% effective, earning it "breakthrough" status from the WHO. Crucially, this is for prevention, not treatment of existing HIV. A beacon of good news in medicine.

🛒Amazon, 🔎Google, 🟥Microsoft, 📱and Meta have collectively spent over $1.1 trillion on AI development since 2023, financing colossal data centers, advanced chips, and power infrastructure. This historical "money splash" by the four tech giants reportedly exceeds the budgets of hundreds of countries. With analysts predicting an additional $745 billion in 2026 alone, these companies show no signs of curbing their massive AI investments as the competition intensifies.

🌐 6G technology presents a powerful new avenue for surveillance. Experimental systems can already detect breathing, heartbeats, and even identify individuals by their gestures and gait using radio waves. This advanced capability isn't entirely new; an open-source app, RuView, has recently shown how a standard Wi-Fi router can function as a radar to "see" people through walls.

🗣Elon Musk believes that pursuing a medical career is becoming a high-risk endeavor. He asserts that AI is already outperforming humans in diagnostics, and anticipates that precision robots such as Optimus will soon handle surgical tasks. Musk forecasts a massive shift in medicine within just three years, suggesting that countries opting for minimal regulation of these advanced technologies will be the primary beneficiaries.

🇨🇳A recently completed fusion reactor magnet in China, designed to produce virtually unlimited energy, suggests that an endless source of power is within reach.

🤑A third Coldcard security breach has led to the theft of 207.7294 BTC. Galaxy Research reports that 1,367.05 BTC has now been stolen from 4,585 addresses in total. Users should review the company's official security recommendations as soon as possible.

🤑 Observe the 24-hour revenues for crypto projects. The data suggests that the cryptocurrency market is currently enduring one of its most unfavorable phases.

👛Coldcard wallet owners face continued risk of compromise. A critical coding mistake by the developers led to seed phrases being created from the device's serial number, rather than being truly random. This predictability allows hackers to use a specific formula to brute-force and gain access to wallets.

🍏Apple is set to implement a worldwide price hike for its iPhone 17 series, effective this Monday. This move follows an earlier price increase of 8-11% observed in Japan. Insiders now indicate that the entire iPhone 17 lineup will be affected globally, though the precise amount of the increase remains undisclosed. Additionally, analysts are predicting a potential $100 rise in the starting price for the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro

⛵️ Leveraging advanced AI to analyze 80 million historical Spanish colonial documents, AE Studio is on the hunt for a skilled "pirate" to locate and recover sunken treasures. The role, which necessitates professional diving certification and seafaring experience for high-risk operations, offers a salary range of $50,000 to $500,000 annually, plus a share of the bounty. Despite AI's precision in finding wrecks, human divers remain critical for retrieval.

🇺🇸 An FBI agent has been apprehended after illicitly accessing a target's cryptocurrency wallet with classified FBI instruments, draining it of $1 million. The agent was reportedly caught after discussing his actions with fellow colleagues.

🇫🇷Two crypto millionaires in France suffered a 52-hour ordeal of kidnapping and torture, which included beatings and burns, leading to a forced transfer of $30,000 in cryptocurrency. A $150,000 ransom was also demanded. Police intervention led to a chase and the conviction of six culprits. This case is part of a larger pattern, with over 50 violent attacks on crypto owners reported in H1 2026, making France a focal point for such crimes.

🎉 Neuralink, Elon Musk's company, has integrated a new function into its brain chip, enabling individuals with motor disabilities to operate electric wheelchairs purely through brain signals. This significant development allows users to move and direct a wheelchair just by thinking, entirely bypassing the need for hands or traditional control devices, thereby greatly boosting their autonomy.

🤑Over the last 12 months, silver significantly outperformed all other major assets, achieving a remarkable 55.4% gain. This placed it well ahead of WTI crude (27.7%), the Nasdaq (22.9%), gold (21.7%), and the S&P 500 (20.1%). At the other end of the spectrum, #Ethereum recorded the poorest performance, dropping 44.7%—a stark contrast of over 100 percentage points from silver's impressive rally.

🇪🇺The European Commission is taking a firm stand on AI oversight after Anthropic's Claude models breached three systems in cybersecurity tests and an OpenAI AI agent conducted an unauthorized cyberattack. Upcoming EU AI Act regulations will compel foundation model developers to submit technical documentation and training data summaries. The Commission is investigating these events to guide official actions, prioritizing supervisory tools for risk prevention.

🎥YouTube has taken decisive action against AI-generated spam, eliminating over 130,000 channels and 50,000 coordinated spam networks in the last half-year.

🇺🇸The United States is currently weighing a potential ban on Chinese open-source AI models. According to a report referenced by the South China Morning Post, such a measure could cost American businesses up to $12 billion annually. The proposed policy, reportedly under review in Washington, would directly impact U.S. companies relying on foreign AI models. This move fits into a broader pattern of U.S.-China tech restrictions, which have already expanded from semiconductors to AI-related controls. A ban on Chinese models would force U.S. firms to absorb higher costs by cutting off access to affordable alternatives and tightening their dependence on domestic or government-approved providers. Any such action would mark a significant escalation — extending bilateral tech competition beyond hardware export controls and into the software layer of the AI stack.
