THE AI THAT BUILDS AI: WHY THE WORLD SHOULD PAY ATTENTION

Scientists are now seeing early signs of systems that help make their own successors — a process called recursive self‑improvement. In simple terms, an AI writes code, tests ideas, or suggests design changes that speed up the next generation of AI. When that loop runs without humans in the middle, improvements can accelerate quickly and

MYTHOS ACCESS SURGES: 200 COMPANIES NOW

Anthropic has expanded Project Glasswing to grant Mythos access to 150 additional organizations across 15 countries, bringing total participating companies to about 200—including India, Samsung, Okta, Euroclear, and NYSE — adding critical infrastructure sectors like power, water, healthcare, and communications previously underrepresented. The thinking behind this expansion is urgent defense: Mythos Preview has already found thousands of

MICROSOFT: BUILDING ITS OWN AGENT ERA

Microsoft’s Build 2026 marked a clear pivot from being OpenAI’s chief partner to becoming an AI originator. The company released seven in‑house MAI models for reasoning, coding, vision, voice, and transcription through Microsoft Foundry, signaling control over its own model stack and product destiny. The company doubled down on agents as the next platform. Scout, an always‑on “Autopilot” running

HUMANOIDS HIRED: FIGURE GOES TO WORK IN RETAIL LOGISTICS

Figure AI has signed its first retail logistics deal with Catalyst Brands, the parent of JCPenney, Aéropostale, Brooks Brothers, and Eddie Bauer, to deploy Figure 03 humanoids at Catalyst’s upgraded Reno, Nevada, logistics hub. The robots will work with the Joey Pouch sorting and packing system, taking on repetitive, physically demanding tasks so human staff can shift into

ANTHROPIC TAKES THE LEAD

Anthropic just leapfrogged OpenAI with a new version of its model, Claude Opus 4.8. The update beats most major benchmarks, especially on coding, using computers, and financial analysis, and it’s better at admitting uncertainty instead of guessing. Alongside Opus 4.8, Anthropic announced a huge funding round — $65 billion — that values the company around $965 billion,

FROM ALPHAFOLD TO WORLD MODEL: HOW AI IS REWRITING THE RULES OF DRUG DISCOVERY

In 2020, Google DeepMind’s AlphaFold2 revolutionized science by predicting protein structures with near-experimental accuracy, solving a 50-year biology grand challenge. This breakthrough earned Demis Hassabis and John Jumper the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, with AlphaFold2 now used by over 2 million researchers across 190 countries to map 200 million proteins. AlphaFold 3 followed in

DEMIS’s 2030 CALL: AGI IS CLOSER THAN YOU THINK

Demis Hassabis says AGI could arrive around 2030 ±1 year — a bolder timeline as DeepMind’s models move from prediction to purposeful action. The main technical gaps he names are clear: physical-world understanding, longer reliable memory, consistent cross-context reasoning, and continual learning without catastrophic forgetting. Closing them is what will turn agentic systems into truly
