Mallika Rao discusses the hidden risk of evaluation debt in production AI systems, drawing on her experience at Twitter, Walmart, and Netflix. She explains why traditional metrics fail modern architectures, breaks down a five-layer evaluation stack spanning infrastructure and UX, and shares a diagnostic maturity model to help engineering leaders eliminate silent semantic failures.

South Korean chip startup Xcena is betting that AI's real bottleneck is not compute, but memory.

AI training startup Shift wants to clean your home for free. The catch - because, despite what its website says, there's always a catch - is that it will record cleaners as they scrub, vacuum, dust, tidy, and wash, and use that footage to train robots. Shift announced the unusual offer on social media on […]

Massive has released a free version of its pioneering crowd simulator created for Lord of the Rings and used in recent blockbusters like Superman and Avatar.

Hey everyone, A while ago, we realized a major annoyance: whenever you actually need an AI to summarize a document, write some quick code, or just brainstorm, you're usually on a flight, on the subway, or dealing with terrible cell reception. And bam, ChatGPT won't connect. Plus, there's the growing privacy concern of feeding all your personal data to cloud servers. So, my team and I started tinkering with a question: "What if we just run the AI directly on the phone's hardware?" We've been spending our evenings and weekends for months trying to make this work smoothly, and the result is Cortex AI. The logic is super simple: You download a highly optimized, small-scale local model (from our library) straight to your device. Put your phone in airplane mode, go off the grid—the AI replies entirely locally. Zero data leaves your phone. 100% private. Some real-world use cases we built this for: Coding help or summarizing offline docs while on a long flight. Getting quick answers while traveling abroad without an expensive data roaming plan. Brainstorming private ideas you just don't want OpenAI or Google to scrape. Note: We do have an optional "Online Mode" if you want to connect to massive models like GPT-4 or Claude, but the local offline models are completely free, and that's what we really want to test right now. We're currently trying to gather real user experiences on the local execution side. I'm not here to just spam a link and grab cash; we genuinely want to improve the offline mobile AI space. If anyone frequently travels, camps, or just loves local LLMs, we'd be super grateful if you could test it out. Brutally honest feedback like "runs too slow on my device," "needs X feature," or "this part of the UI makes no sense" is exactly what we need right now :) submitted by /u/Virtual_Ad_6024 [link] [留言]

The alert was raised on May 5. Four health-care workers in the Ituri Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo had died from an unknown illness within four days. Rapid response teams were sent to investigate, and tests at a research center in Kinshasa revealed the culprit: the Bundibugyo virus, one of the viruses…

Younger Americans have soured on the second Donald Trump presidency , but they are not protesting it. Despite an unpopular Iran war and an even more unpopular Trump administration , college campus protests nationwide have gone silent . And at many schools, student activism is virtually nonexistent . This silence comes in the wake of a relentless Trump administration war on campus speech that has involved lawsuits , arrests , deportations and expulsions . Reports cite a range of complicated factors for the restraint, from apathy to technology-induced incapacity. But as ...

I'm one of those people who enjoy on planes and in public spaces in general. But the issue of privacy was always a hurdle.

uber blew through its entire 2026 AI budget by april, 4 months in. 95% of their engineers use AI, 70% of commits are AI driven, and their COO still said he cant draw a clear line between all that usage and actually shipping more useful features. microsoft and duolingo have pulled back too. at the same time theres a CEO survey going around (oliver wyman) where the share planning to cut junior roles jumped from 17% to 43% in a year, and only 27% said their AI ROI met expectations, down from 38%. what gets me is the combination. companies are trimming entry level headcount because AI can do junior tasks, but juniors are also how you grow seniors. if that pattern holds for a few years the mid and senior pipeline gets thin right when the current seniors age out. cutting the bottom rung while the ROI is still unproven seems like a weird bet. anyone seeing this play out where they work? sauce: https://finance.yahoo.com/sectors/technology/articles/ubers-coo-says-getting-harder-050841491.html submitted by /u/PROfil_Official [link] [留言]

Spoiler: not a single visible cable, not a single piece of furniture moved twice. When I started, I had an apartment and dimensions from the building blueprint. No designer. No clear idea where to go. But there was a desire to make something that would turn a standard apartment in a high-rise into a place of power — a place comfortable to live and work in. Instead of a designer, I took Claude. How it all began The first conversation wasn't about furniture or wallpaper. It was about direction . I didn't know what I wanted. I knew what I didn't want — kitsch, heavy classics, excessive decoration. We worked through options together. Scandinavian minimalism. Japanese wabi-sabi. Loft. Modern classic. The AI broke down each style by character, materials, color logic. Not "this would suit you," but "here's what this means, here's what this requires, here's what you'll get." In the end I arrived at Scandinavian for the bedroom . Warm, light, calm, with one deliberate accent behind the headboard. The living room–kitchen — loft with a red thread running through the whole space, because the furniture there was already concrete-grey with red niches and replacing it wasn't on the table. The hallway and corridor — neutral grey , as a transition between two characters. Three zones, three moods, one logic. The bedroom This was the most detailed conversation. A room with one window, one door, three free walls. Together we came up with: an accent wall behind the headboard with golden geometric lines, the other three walls in cream from the same collection. Tone on tone, different saturation, same texture. The seam between walls reads not as a boundary but as gradation. White matte furniture with black hardware. A wardrobe with a top cabinet almost to the ceiling. Mirrored doors reflect the accent wall — the golden lines are present even where they physically aren't. Then came the centimeters. The AI calculated . Adding up wardrobe depth, gaps, bed width, nightstands, dresser. Checkin
