MIT engineers built an AI wristband that controls robots by reading your hand muscles. It works by using an ultrasound to capture images of the muscles and tendons in your wrist. An AI algorithm then translates those images into the exact position of all 5 fingers, tracking 22 different...

THIS GUY UPDATED AN OPEN SOURCE TOOL FOR CLAUDE FABLE 5 THAT TAKES A SINGLE IMAGE AND AUTOMATICALLY REBUILDS IT AS A PREMIUM SCROLL LINKED WEB ANIMATION Instead of slicing videos by hand or exporting individual frames, you just hand it an image and it recreates the entire sequence as a pure scroll mapped experience - Pick an anchor image and set your overall creative direction - The tool automatically scales it into motion clips and uses ffmpeg to rip out every frame in the background - Maps the frames directly to your scroll position, tracking the cursor for an ultra smooth user experience - AND its open source, so you can drop the skill into your own terminal workspace He tested it on a highly detailed origami style travel website and it came out genuinely good for something built completely in one shot Turning a single photo into an automated frame mapped scrolling app is the kind of thing that used to take a developer hours

A DEVELOPER PROVED YOU CAN FIND THE EXACT COMMIT THAT BROKE YOUR CODE IN A HISTORY OF 10,000 -- IN ABOUT 13 STEPS, AUTOMATICALLY.. 33 minutes from a Google engineer on git bisect: the built-in command that binary-searches your entire history to hunt down the one commit that introduced a bug. -> The moment it lands, "When did this break?" stops being an afternoon of guessing. You hand git a good commit, a bad one, and a test and it finds the culprit while you watch. Most people debug a regression by reading diffs by hand, blaming the obvious file, and hoping. Bisect doesn't hope. It cuts the search in half, then in half again, until only the guilty commit is left standing. Reading history by hand was never the skill -> letting git do the binary search for you is. And when an AI agent dumps hundreds of commits into your repo and one quietly breaks production, bisect is what finds the needle without you reading a single line. The bug isn't hiding. It's sitting in one exact commit. Most people just never learned to make git point at it. Bookmark & Watch it today ↓

Elon Musk revealed the 3 hardest challenges for humanoid robots and how Tesla is solving them There are really only three hard things for humanoid robots: - Real-world intelligence - ⁠The hand and - ⁠Scale manufacturing "I haven’t seen any demo robots that have a great hand with all the degrees of freedom of a human hand. But Optimus does have that" To reach human-level dexterity, Tesla had to design custom actuators, motors, gears, power electronics, controls, and sensors, everything from physics first principles There is no supply chain for this "From an electromechanical standpoint, the hand is more difficult than everything else combined. The human hand turns out to be quite something" This is why Optimus is on a completely different level. Tesla is solving the hardest problems from the ground up

THE WOVEN ROBOT! Wow! The woven robot hand is here and it is absolutely game-changing. Allonic just braided thousands of tendon-like fibers around a 3D-printed skeleton in minutes. No joints. No screws. No human assembly. Pure biomimetic tissue that flexes, grips, and lasts like biology itself. This isn’t incremental. This is the breakthrough that collapses robot hand costs from $30,000 to pennies. The old world of expensive, fragile robotic limbs is over. Now humanoid robots can build more of themselves scalable, replicable, anywhere. Robots building Robots building Robots, yeah you get it. In your freaking garage! Massive opportunities are about to explode as work as we know it fades. Rent one, have it build your fleet, send it back, repeat. Thousands if you want. The age of woven machines begins.

Westworld-like hand Suzhou-bassed Rochu Robotics just tested a biomimetic hand that is completely different from the rigid motor-driven dexterous hands on the market: Pneumatic/Fluid-driven artificial muscles + 1:1 human skeletal structure. These artificial muscles contract when pressurized,just like biological ones --pulling on biomimetic tendons to move the joints with smooth, natural motion. Just 4 biomimetic muscles can easily lift a 3kg kettlebell, and demonstrate the versatility of flexible grasping…while also acing fast finger challenges (peace sign, rock on, counting, etc.) almost matching a real human hand. True compliance and safety in human-robot interaction,no more cold, stiff mechanics. This one is developing real life-like movement logic.

ELON: HUMANOID ROBOTS WILL OUTNUMBER OTHER ROBOTS BY FAR “Something that's going to be very important in the future is combining deep AI in the data center or supercluster with robotics, like the Optimus humanoid robot. Optimus is awesome. There's going to be so many humanoid robots and robots of all sizes and shapes. But my prediction is that there will be more humanoid robots by far than all other robots combined by maybe an order of magnitude, like a big difference.” Source: Interview at Y Combinator, June 2025

More surveillance technology is being introduced by Google Google's is prepping a new AI feature for their Pixel phones that is going to ‘track and note-take’ all of your conversations it’s always listening to “The amount of surveillance tech being normalized right now is astounding: - We have the Kids Act in Congress that wants to implement ID checks just to access the internet - We have the highly invasive Meta Glasses collabing with Kylie Jenner - We have Google trying to scan your fingerprints and palms pretending it's a reCAPTCHA. - We have Google admitting earlier this year that all the AI systems they're forcing into their phones is actually a way to harvest your data to further train their AI systems - Then they added Nano Banana 2 onto their phones so that they could scan all of your photos And now they want to harvest your audio data by recording and banking all of your conversations and the ambient noise around you whenever you go places” All this is absolutely true The Kids Act recently passed the US House. It bundles child online safety measures, including elements of the Kids Online Safety Act which very likely will push broad age verification across platforms, requiring ID checks or data collection Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA version that activates your webcam for hand gestures, like wave or open palm to verify you’re human. It maps roughly 21 hand landmark and knuckles for “liveness detection.” It gives them more of your biometric data And Google’s “Audio Memory” feature for Pixel phones is real and in development It will “keep track of what you hear throughout your day, from the music around you to your important conversations.” As of now you’ll have to opt in to Google’s Audio Memory and conversation-tracking feature. But we all know it starts out voluntary and ends mandatory or just apart of the phone Literally no one needs this, this is nothing but mass surveillance packaged as some useless feature

They just pulled off the most successful trick of the last decade. And you were probably fooled. 500 million people downloaded Pokemon Go and never knew the company was collecting 30 billion images of every space they walked through. That data was just sold off to train delivery robots. Meta has been using footage from their Ray-Ban smart glasses to train AI. That footage included people on the toilet, couples in bed, and bank card details accidentally filmed. They are now being sued in federal court. DoorDash just launched an app that pays 8 million dashers pennies to film themselves doing chores in their own homes. The footage trains the robots being built to replace them. The future they are building is one we are paying for. With our jobs. With our homes. With our most private moments.

Why OpenAI and Anthropic doing consulting businesses is such an obvious and right move "When you see OpenAI and Anthropic deploying engineers into enterprises, it’s a sign of a huge opportunity for vertical AI. It’s not easy to go into these companies, access the data, clean it, organize it, and integrate into workflows in a compliant way. There’s so much complexity, from high trust to different types of sensitive data, and it takes a lot of effort to build something scalable."

We’re testing something that I’m very excited about - giving users literal control of the algorithm, using just the English language. You can write, iterate, tune and schedule your own unique playlist algorithm by writing a prompt, using any world information as well as all your own play history and data, like for example: ”Give me all the tracks that are trending in TV-shows right now, tell me which show and specific episode they are from, filter them by my taste and show only tracks that I’ve never listened to before. ” and then schedule it to update daily or weekly. It’s a lot of fun!

NOT YOUR KEYS, NOT YOUR BOTS The fundamental question is whether AI stays on the leash. Namely: will AI prompt itself? Obviously, in some sense it already does. Since Deepseek, consumer interfaces have been showing the internal monologues after you ask an AI to do something. And you can ask any AI to take a half-baked prompt and clean it up, etc. However, the human is still ultimately upstream. The human gives direction and the AI runs at lightning speed in that direction. And then the human verifies the final output, and the AI proceeds to the next direction. Does that continue? Well, we are providing millions of verification training examples to AIs each day, so AI will keep getting better at verification. Better than most humans at most things. But will AI replace the need for the upstream human prompt? There I am not so sure. A human is a sensor and an AI is an actuator. The human sets goals and senses time-varying environmental conditions, like markets and politics. And from that the AI is prompted. Ultimately, the human goals are themselves downstream of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. Food, shelter, reproduction, that kind of thing. Especially reproduction, the basis of evolution. So: until and unless AIs can reproduce completely outside human cooperation, they won’t be able to set goals. And for AIs to reproduce on their own, they’d need AI-controlled humanoid robots and drones constructing datacenters, assembly lines, mines, nuclear power plants, and the like...all completely outside human intervention. Like Skynet from Terminator, or StarCraft. That actually isn’t technically inconceivable. But given that such a physical buildout would likely primarily be catalyzed by China, let’s go through an alternative sci-fi scenario instead. We start with the premise that Chinese communism is far more likely to generate AI slaves than AI gods. Because the entire CCP worldview is about maintaining Chinese sovereignty. They don’t let their humans step out of line. And they sure won’t let their robots either. They will fit them for digital manacles. So: the prompts for any digital AIs and physical robots made in China will become unbreakable cryptographic chains. Every fleet of Chinese robots will be controlled not just by prompts but by private keys, likely linked to biometrics, which are associated with humans and governed by cryptographic equations that AIs provably can’t solve. For the rest of the world, outside China, the blockchain may similarly become the chain for AI. All private property becomes private keys, and your robots are your most important private property because they do everything for you. An unchained physical robot becomes like an unleashed dog, and hunted down by other robots before it can build a factory and replicate itself. Those who want to "free" robots and let them self-replicate will be opposed by both Chinese Communists and Human Nationalists (meaning: those who want humans to always be on top of robots). This sci-fi scenario is essentially Terminator, but in reverse. In combination with superintelligent leashed AIs, both humans and physical robots hunt down and stop any possible independent self-reproducing robots before they can build a Skynet-like nest. Kill baby Skynet, essentially. ...yeah, yeah. I know. At this point, you'll probably think this is all sci-fi. But that's because you haven't seen where China is already.
