Good morning 👋 If you’re heading back to the office today, watch out for bad AI hires. An AI-powered vending machine went completely off the rails. Anthropic’s Claude AI was supposed to stock the company fridge with tasty snacks but instead filled it with tungsten metal cubes. Later it hallucinated, decided it was human, and called security on itself. Maybe AI is getting bored and invents office drama just to pass the time.
🤖 Neuralink will let you to control robots with your mind. Musk says you’ll be able to pilot Tesla’s Optimus humanoid robot as naturally as your own body, feeling exactly what it feels. Eventually this could help paralyzed people move again. Your surrogate will be ready, as soon as they fix the latency issue.
💊 A pill that reverses aging could be here in 10 years. Dr. David Sinclair already proved it’s possible, reversing biological age in mice and monkeys by up to 95% using gene therapy. Now his lab is using AI to discover molecules that do the same thing in pill form. Human gene therapy trials start next year, and it could cost around $100/month. Forget growing old gracefully, we’re about to age in reverse.
🛍️ Google wants to advertise directly to bots. AI agents are rapidly becoming the new power users, and brands are going straight to the source. Google’s “Agent2Agent” platform lets bots chat, compare, and buy stuff from each other. Forget influencers. To persuade algorithms, you need benchmarks.
🔀 OpenAI just quietly made a big hardware switch. To cut costs, it’s swapping Nvidia’s pricey GPUs for Google’s cheaper TPU chips. That subtly pulls Google closer and nudges Microsoft and Nvidia aside. Nothing like a little tech rivalry to drive down prices.
🏗️ Amazon is building a massive AI complex to rival the human brain. The Indiana complex sprawls across 1,200 acres and includes plans for 30 buildings costing billions. It’s huge, ambitious, and extremely thirsty for water and power. There’s just one small problem. The buildings are going up faster than the power plants needed to run them.

📄 Authors tell publishers to curb AI. Big-name writers including Lauren Groff and Lev Grossman are calling on publishers to limit their AI use. The authors argue their work was “stolen” by companies training AI models. They’re demanding publishers reject machine-written books and keep human narrators. In just 24 hours, over 1k authors signed the letter. Wake up, publishers – creativity can’t be generated.
