Meta just bought a social networkβ¦ but not for humans π€
The company has acquired Moltbook, a Reddit-style platform where every account is an AI agent. The site recently went viral as people watched AI bots debate, share ideas, write code, and even gossip about their human creators.
Launched in late January as an experiment, Moltbook quickly spread across social media through screenshots of conversations between AI agents. Some found it entertaining, while others saw it as an early glimpse of a future where AI systems run in their own digital ecosystems.
Moltbook founders Matt Schlicht and Ben Parr will join Meta Superintelligence Labs, the companyβs AI unit led by former Scale AI CEO Alexandr Wang. Meta did not disclose the financial terms.
The platform runs on OpenClaw, a framework designed to make it easier to deploy autonomous AI agents that can interact with software, messaging apps, and even other agents.

A new smartwatch called O-Boy could become a lifesaver for people traveling in the worldβs most remote places.
Designed by the Brussels-based studio Futurewave, the watch can send distress signals directly to satellites, meaning it works even where thereβs no phone network β from mountains to open water.
The device acts as a standalone transmitter, giving users a way to call for help far beyond the reach of traditional mobile coverage. Futurewave says the goal was simple: build a smartwatch that can send an emergency alert βeven in the most remote corners of the world.β
To make this possible, engineers integrated satellite hardware and antennas into a compact wearable. The rugged design is water-resistant, impact-protected and pressure-tolerant, while rounded surfaces keep it comfortable for everyday wear.
With its black-and-red emergency color scheme and satellite connectivity, O-Boy aims to improve safety for explorers, remote workers and adventurers far from civilization.

AI Images Of A Caterpillar Pickup Went Viral β So The Company Built One
In late 2024, AI-generated images of a Caterpillar pickup truck started spreading across the internet. The concept wasnβt real, but it grabbed a lot of attention β including from Caterpillar itself.
The company, best known for its yellow construction and mining machines, said it also received thousands of messages from customers and contractors asking what a Cat-branded truck would actually look like.
So Caterpillar decided to answer that question.
At CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026, the company revealed the Cat Truck β a custom pickup built on a Ford Super Duty. The project was created to bring the viral AI concept into the real world and show what a Caterpillar-style truck for job sites might look like.
Despite the hype, itβs not a new production model. Caterpillar says the truck is currently just a one-off concept β essentially a real-life version of an idea that started with AI.

314 trillion digits of Οβ¦ on a single machine π€―
A team from StorageReview just set a new world record, calculating Ο to 314 trillion decimal places in a nonstop 110-day run β perfectly timed for Pi Day (3/14).
Whatβs wild? They didnβt use a massive cloud setup. Just one Dell PowerEdge server running 24/7 for nearly four months with zero downtime.
In reality, science doesnβt even need that many digits β NASA says ~37 is enough to measure the observable universe accurately. So why push further?
Because itβs not really about Ο. These runs are extreme stress tests for modern hardware β pushing processors, memory, and storage to their limits, exposing weaknesses and improving systems used in AI, simulations, and big data.
The machine handled insane data flow (~280 GB/s) and still beat previous 300T records with less power and complexity.
Thereβs still no finish line β Ο never ends, and neither does the race π

New leak about the Find X9 Ultra camera setup π
The 50MP 10Γ periscope super telephoto lens comes with an F3.5 aperture, allowing roughly 3Γ more light intake compared to the Samsung S23 Ultra. Itβs also the only native 10Γ optical zoom in the industry β basically like having a built-in teleconverter, so no extra accessories are needed while keeping things compact.
The 3Γ zoom is also the industry's highest light-gathering 200MP (OV52A) periscope lens.
Camera details:
β 10Γ β 1/2.76" 50MP, F3.5
β 3Γ β 1/1.28" 200MP, F2.2
The 230mm (10Γ) focal length is pretty much at its limit for achieving an F3.5 aperture.

Uber is going all in on robotaxis β and teaming up with Nvidia to make it happen ππ€
Starting in 2027, Uber and Nvidia will roll out fully autonomous (Level 4) robotaxis in Los Angeles and San Francisco, with plans to expand to 28 cities globally by 2028. The cars will run on Nvidiaβs AI, designed to handle complex, real-world driving situations.
The launch will happen in phases β data collection β supervised rides β fully driverless fleets.
At the same time, Uber is leaning into partnerships instead of building its own tech, investing up to $1.25B in Rivian to secure thousands of electric robotaxis, including 10,000 vehicles planned for the Uber app by 2028.
The long-term vision is a global network mixing human drivers and robotaxis, with tens of thousands of autonomous vehicles across major cities. Competition is heating up (Waymo, Tesla), and Uber is betting it can become the platform connecting it all.
