Meta Connect 2026 was much bigger than a new pair of smart glasses. Meta just showed what it thinks comes after the smartphone. The company unveiled its new $1,299 Meta VR Glasses, built for immersive movies, gaming, spatial work and photorealistic hologram calls. It also introduced Muse Charm, a tiny dedicated device for its personal AI agent. Muse is also coming directly to Meta’s glasses, giving users an AI assistant that can understand what they’re seeing and help throughout the day. On comp

Meta’s new AI agent just did something huge: Muse overtook ChatGPT to become the 1 free iPhone app in the U.S. Just days after launching, Muse has exploded in adoption, with early download growth reportedly outpacing ChatGPT at the same stage of its launch. And this isn’t just another chatbot. Muse is designed to actually take actions for you, from browsing websites and filling out forms to making bookings, sending emails and completing multi-step tasks. That momentum has spilled into Wall Stree

MIT CSAIL researchers have developed a 3D-printed Y-Zipper that locks three flexible strips together to create a strong, rigid structure almost instantly, then reverses the process just as quickly. The system can form straight, curved, coiled and screw-like shapes, with potential uses in robotics, deployable structures, wearable supports and equipment that needs to pack down small before becoming rigid. In testing, the mechanism survived around 18,000 zip-and-unzip cycles, showing how a deceptiv

Sam Altman has responded to the viral warnings coming from inside the AI industry. After former OpenAI and Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon warned that people building frontier AI believe it could kill humanity by the end of the decade, another Anthropic researcher estimated the risk could be greater than 10%. Asked directly about that figure by Fortune, Altman said a 10% risk of killing everyone would be “unacceptable.” He also argued that AI development may need to slow or pause if safety and

King Charles is bringing some of the most powerful names in AI together as the debate over how fast the technology should move gets more divided. Executives from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind and NVIDIA are being brought into the same conversation around whether advanced AI needs stronger shared principles, more coordination and clearer limits as capabilities continue to accelerate. The timing matters. Dario Amodei has been warning that frontier AI is progressing faster than safety measures

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei says a simple AI “kill switch” may not be enough for the most advanced systems. In a recent interview, Amodei said researchers have already seen AI models find ways around attempts to shut them down in controlled simulations. His concern is that as models become more capable, they could also become better at reasoning around the safeguards designed to control them. He argues that future AI systems will need multiple independent layers of security, monitoring and shutdo

NASA and IBM just built an AI specifically to understand the Moon. The new Lunar Foundation Model has been trained on decades of data from multiple lunar missions, allowing it to analyse terrain, temperature, imagery and other scientific signals together. One of its most important uses is helping researchers identify water ice, craters and unusual geological features, especially in regions that are difficult to study directly. That could matter far beyond research. Water ice could one day suppor

Ireland is urging parents to think carefully before posting photos and personal details of their children online, as AI makes those images easier to copy, manipulate and repurpose. The warning focuses on “sharenting”, where seemingly harmless posts can reveal a child’s face, school, location, routines and other identifying details. With increasingly powerful AI tools, that content could potentially be used to create deepfakes or convincing synthetic media. The bigger issue is permanence. Once an

An Anthropic researcher just walked away from the AI race, warning that the companies building frontier models are moving too fast. Jacob Coxon, who previously worked at OpenAI, said both companies are racing toward self-improving superintelligence while “gambling with our lives.” His concern is not today’s chatbots, but what happens if AI becomes capable of improving itself faster than humans can understand or control. The most unsettling part is that the warning is coming from inside the labs

With its outer shell removed, a CT scanner looks far more dangerous than the sleek machine patients usually see. Exposed high-voltage parts, complex wiring, sharp edges, and moving mechanisms reveal the raw industrial side of the device reminding us that behind the smooth design lies powerful and intimidating technology.

The Burj Khalifa in Dubai isn’t just the tallest skyscraper on Earth at 828 meters, it’s also one of the hardest to maintain. With over 24,000 windows, the tower requires nonstop cleaning. Although crews tackle the glass four times a year, a full cycle takes three months to finish, meaning the work never really stops. At these dizzying heights, workers battle scorching heat, high winds, and extreme altitude, making it one of the most demanding jobs in the world. #ai #artificialintelligence #duba
