🗣NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang says the next phase of AI will be driven by applications.

Chips were phase one, infrastructure was phase two and now the value shifts to companies building useful products on top of all that compute.

🗣 Sam Altman says OpenAI is burning cash fast, but it's not a crisis

If spending billions now leads to even bigger revenue later, plenty of capital wants that trade. "The economy hasn't seen something quite like this before". But model growth correlates directly with revenue growth

It’s electronic skin,woven with dense fiber and textile sensors that can detect pressure, touch, deformation, and subtle contact changes in real time.

Now imagine humanoid robots covered in it,especially on dexterous hands. Humanoids could truly touch and understand the physical world and even humans.

🔔Pokémon Go players trained 30 billion image AI map

Niantic says photos and scans collected through Pokémon Go and its AR apps have produced a massive dataset of more than 30 billion real-world images.

The company is now using that data to power visual navigation for delivery robots, letting them identify exact locations on city streets without relying on GPS.

❗️Andrej Karpathy built a map of every job in America and how likely AI is to replace it

The former OpenAI and Tesla AI leader just released an open-source project that scores how exposed every U.S. job is to AI automation.

Here’s how it works:

The dataset:
• Scraped 342 occupations from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
• Each job was evaluated using an LLM scoring rubric from 0–10
• Built an interactive treemap visualization
• Rectangle size = number of workers in that job
• Color = how vulnerable the role is to AI

The key rule behind the scoring
If the work product is digital and the job can be done entirely from a home office, the exposure score rises dramatically.

Some example scores:
• 0–1: Roofers, janitors
• 4–5: Nurses, retail workers, physicians
• 8–9: Software developers, paralegals, data analysts
• 10: Medical transcriptionists

Overall result: Average exposure across all occupations: 5.3 / 10

Fully open source, Karpathy also released the entire pipeline:
• BLS data scraping
• LLM scoring methodology
• The visualization system

Anyone can reproduce it or update the scores as AI improves.

🗣Yann LeCun says Elon Musk has predicted Level 5 autonomy within 5 years for the last 8 years, and has been consistently wrong

"Either he believed it and was mistaken, or he was lying". It may push the team, but for engineers, hearing 'next year' again and again is demoralizing.

🔥 Kimi AI introduces Attention Residuals, a new way to rethink how neural networks use past layers

Researchers at Moonshot AI just proposed a new architecture tweak that could make large AI models more efficient and smarter about how they use information from earlier layers. Instead of the traditional residual connections used in deep networks, they introduce Attention Residuals, a system where each layer can selectively attend to representations from previous layers.

Here’s what’s new:

Attention over past layers:
• Traditional residuals simply add outputs from earlier layers in a fixed way.
• Attention Residuals let the model dynamically choose which earlier layers matter for a given input.

Solves depth dilution:
• In very deep models, useful information from earlier layers can get diluted.
• Attention-based retrieval allows the network to pull specific past representations when needed.

Block AttnRes for scale:
• Layers are grouped into compressed blocks so cross-layer attention remains computationally practical.

Efficient in practice:
• Reported 1.25× compute advantage
• <2% extra inference latency, meaning almost no slowdown.

Tested on the Kimi Linear model:
• Evaluated on 48B parameter architecture (3B activated parameters).
• Shows consistent downstream performance improvements.

Kimi just made AI notably cheaper to run. Open-sourced it. Put it out for free. Meanwhile OpenAI is asking people to pay $200 a month to use a model that already feels behind the curve.

Two Chinese labs. Both open source. Both doing more with less. Both giving away for free what American companies charge billions for.

The AI race isn't US vs China anymore... It's closed vs open. And closed is losing.

And the wildest part? Nobody in Silicon Valley will acknowledge this.. Because admitting a Chinese lab just moved the field forward for free destroys the entire "we need $10B to build AGI" fundraising pitch.

❗️Someone used Suno AI to generate a Japanese metal band called Neon Oni. Fake member bios, AI-generated music videos, "Based in Tokyo" on Spotify.

80,000+ monthly listeners. Fans had it in their Spotify Wrapped top 5. Merch was selling. Then, community sleuths exposed it. Traced the creator's account to Europe. Spotted AI-generated hands in the music videos.

The creator's response? Recruit 7 real musicians from actual Tokyo bands to perform the AI-generated songs live. They've now played several live shows and have more on the books.

From an interview with the band's creator: "In an age where AI is taking everyone's jobs, this has actually created jobs. It's done the complete opposite."
