Hivemind's first flight in orbit. Onboard a NOVI Space satellite in low Earth orbit, Hivemind integrated with Sedaro’s Autonomy Framework for the Edge (SAFE), demonstrating trusted satellite autonomy capabilities. Hivemind made autonomous mission decisions while SAFE provided mission assurance, showing how autonomy can help operators move from managing a single satellite to coordinating fleets at scale. The demonstration also proved that Hivemind can operate on existing satellites not originally designed for autonomy. Full release: Autonomy for the world. The greatest victory requires no war.

The future fight won’t be won by size or scale alone. It’ll be won by those who can innovate, adapt, and move at speed. That idea was at the heart of Booz Allen CEO Horacio Rozanski’s recent conversation with Erik Torenberg of Andreesen Horowitz and Gary Steele Steele, CEO of Shield AI on The a16z Podcast. In a time of accelerating geopolitical risk, Horacio shared why speed—in technology, partnerships, and deployment—is the decisive factor for national security. Together with Shield AI and its Hivemind autonomy stack, Booz Allen is helping bring advanced, mission-ready AI to the edge faster. Listen to the full episode:

During the SF power outage, Waymos shut down, but Tesla Robotaxis kept driving. When traffic lights went dark, Waymo vehicles relied on infrastructure and signals that were no longer there, so they all stopped for safety. Tesla Robotaxis did NOT. Tesla’s autonomy is built to see and understand the real world directly instead of depending on external systems. When things get messy like blackouts, broken lights, chaos, Teslas keep going, not Waymo. That’s the difference between infrastructure dependent autonomy and true AI-driven autonomy. Real world > perfect conditions.

T-52 hours! This Thursday, NordSpace goes orbital for the first time. Terra Nova, NordSpace's first pathfinder satellite, is launching aboard SpaceX's Transporter-18 from Vandenberg Space Force Base. We designed, built and tested it in our Space Systems Lab (SSL), including thermal, vacuum and vibration testing all in-house. Terra Nova is also built to retire substantial mission, business and technical risk for our launch systems division. We're building Tundra and Tempest, Canada's light and medium-lift commercial orbital launch vehicles, along with the Atlantic Spaceport Complex. As Canada's only vertically integrated space missions company and a company committed to high cadence operations, Terra Nova brings us one giant leap closer to operating every phase of a space mission. From design and manufacturing through launch, on-orbit operations and data services. That's what sovereign, end-to-end space capability for Canada looks like, and we are just getting started. Terra Nova is a self-funded, dual-use defence and commercial demonstration mission. It will test capabilities from Space Domain Awareness to wildfire and arctic monitoring using artificial intelligence at the edge. Work meant to protect Canadian sovereignty and save lives. On board are four technologies we built ourselves: 🔹 Athena, our scalable spacecraft bus 🔹 Zephyr-EP, our electric propulsion thruster 🔹 Chronos, our edge-AI camera system running on an onboard NVIDIA GPU 🔹 Sentinel, our mission control platform, which will run every NordSpace mission, including launch Terra Nova is just one of several spacecraft missions we have planned. We will soon be announcing our full-scale Athena and Aquila spacecraft buses, built for rapid deployment of constellations and hosted payloads.

We've raised an additional $308M to continue expanding our team, products, and facilities as we accelerate humanity's future beyond Earth. This raise brings our combined Series D round to $808M, continuing a period of significant growth for our company. We're scaling because our customers need more than just access to space, they need to be able to move dynamically once they're there. That's why we're building vehicles that can maneuver precisely, respond quickly, reach new destinations, and adapt on orbit. We're excited to continue building a full spectrum of in-space mobility capabilities for the space industry. Read the full announcement:

How can AI agents gain true autonomy? CARV ID (ERC-7231) is transforming AI and blockchain integration by creating trustless, sovereign AI agents. This identity protocol aggregates cross-chain and off-chain data, enabling AI Beings to operate with verified identity, privacy, and autonomy. By unifying fragmented data and enriching it with actionable metrics, CARV ID powers the D.A.T.A Framework, giving AI agents access to contextualized insights while preserving user data sovereignty. This means developers can build AI systems that learn, evolve, and act independently within a secure, decentralized ecosystem, free from centralized control. For businesses and researchers, this opens a new frontier where AI-driven decisions are transparent, verifiable, and privacy-preserved. CARV's integration of Solana scalability and Ethereum security ensures these trustless AI agents perform with speed at scale. The future is clear: AI Beings will no longer be mere tools, they will be sovereign participants in digital economies. What implications do you see for AI autonomy in blockchain?

The Sabotaging Practice of Over Supply and Sameness in the NFT Space. The current zeitgeist of the NFT space is that the same artists are doing the same kind of work five times a year, with project after project leaving a trail of disappointment and discontent among collectors and all of us watching in disbelief as huge resources are extracted from the space over work that feels like it could be left as an "artist study." I understand that you can do what you want with your money as collectors, but we are killing the whole space with this incestuous practice. No artist is that prolific to be able to do 5 collections of 100+ pieces each every year and actually deliver innovation and some kind of creative evolution. Of course, they can pretend play that the work has something new, but there is no precedent nor proof that that has ever happened in the speed that it happens in the NFT space. Again, people are free to through away their resources on whatever they want but with this way of doing things, we more and more are going to start seeing the consequences. Oh! There are consequences? Yes. Maybe unintended, but there are. Let's see. Let's start with the loss of belief in the NFT space as somewhere where emerging artists can come and find support for their experiments. Why even bother to bring experiments, innovation, and new ways to think of art on the blockchain if the same people have all the collectors hypnotized with their magical flutes? Why even try to come to a space where taking risks and challenging the status quo (the mission of art!!!) is overlooked? This makes the NFT space a social club and not a space for art. I guess it is fine, but IMO it is a recipe for disaster. New collectors stay away because the art will slowly but surely become stale and un-challenging. Why even bother to come and see what is happening here if you can't, as a collector, see new weird and up-and-coming artists? The amount of noise emitted by the same artists doing the same art over and over, drowns out any new voices. Again. A recipe for disaster. The NFT space is becoming a space of disappointment and doubt. We think that collections going to zero one after the other, over and over, is not damaging? I feel we are kidding ourselves. Disappointment piles up, and again, the people who will hurt are the emerging artists, the new blood, the ones who are willing to risk the most and, in return, put fire in this cold space of sameness. I love this space—don't get me wrong—it has changed my life, and I believe it has a ton of potential, but things need to change for it to become a beacon of light in art. But we need to support new voices. We need to support new ideas. The challenge is huge. I hope to contribute all I can to this change. I hope more and more see how exciting it is to go out and try to discover what else is out there and move this space forward. But again, I understand the leaps of faith needed, but if there is a space that is based on that, it's the NFT space...so there is hope. We will see. 📺by Boldtron

Meet GAIA-3, Wayve’s most advanced generative world model yet. 🌎 Scaling the evaluation of autonomous driving systems is one of the toughest challenges in our industry. Real-world testing matters, but it is slow, costly, and rarely captures the safety-critical events that matter most. And traditional simulation has not delivered the realism or diversity needed. GAIA 3 changes this. It reconstructs real environments with rich fidelity and generates realistic counterfactuals that unlock safe, repeatable, scalable evaluation for modern end-to-end driving systems. See how GAIA 3 advances Wayve toward global autonomy: #GAIA3 #EmbodiedAI #AISafety #GenerativeAI #AutonomousVehicles

It’s been one year since the Supreme Court's decision to dismantle the constitutional right to a safe abortion, and although the path forward will be challenging, we must continue to be united in our fight for reproductive justice. I created ‘SWINE’ to amplify the voices of those who advocate for choice and bodily autonomy. I want this song to empower not only the birthing people of this country, but everyone who stands up for equality, to embrace their agency and fight for a world where every person's right to make decisions about their own body is honored.

An excellent meeting with Rob Jetten Rob Jetten in The Hague, as I complete my #TourdesCapitales. 🇳🇱 In the new geopolitical reality, the EU needs the resources to be an anchor of security, autonomy and prosperity for our citizens. That is why we need a modernised budget, fit for the future. The EU must remain a source of stability and responsibility in an increasingly uncertain world. We will continue the discussion next week at #EUCO. Wat is het geweldig om in Nederland te zijn!

This is a cultural hivemind philosophy. Turn up when the chip is in hand. The most important games of your career are ahead of you. You already have efficiency inconsistencies and instead of working in the gym to become your best version for these games, you are out here "making it rain" with people who complain online about your "finals" not being moved to a larger arena but refuse to spend money to make that a possibiilty. Valks sweep. By 5+ or more per game. Blame this video when it happens.

Project Suncatcher is our moonshot exploring whether we can one day host machine learning infrastructure in space 🚀 To do so, we need to know whether our AI hardware can operate in orbit. Can our TPUs handle the physical stress of spaceflight and the radiation and thermal extremes of space? These are the questions Google researchers have been exploring for the past few years. Last week, we launched our first test satellite carrying four TPUs into orbit — putting us one step closer to getting answers.
