    Alexandr Wang Thanks Meta Superintelligence Labs for Reaching a Model-Building Milestone

    Alexandr Wang thanked Meta Superintelligence Labs’ research teams after a week of launches, including Muse Wonder [full] and Muse Spark open. He said MSL and TBD began a little more than a year ago with the goal of producing a frontier model within a year or so, despite the ambition of that target given where Llama 4 landed. Wang said the teams have also built a scalable system for continuing to advance models at the frontier.

    vLLM Supports Muse Spark Open in a Story Highlighting Its Capabilities

    @90VuHwwuzNhhW3h says vLLM supports Muse Spark Open and made a little film to tell its story, using open-source models served by vLLM-Omni. The inference engine also gets a role behind the camera. https://t.co/n3gvdWTC6T The main author calls the film cute and says it brings multimodal understanding, 1M context, agentic planning, DSpark, and cross-platform support to life. https://t.co/yHPXC7qfdM

    My AI doppelganger tells me what to eat

    Victoria Song reviews roughly 100 days with Twin Health, an AI digital twin program that predicts glucose responses to food using personal health data and continuous glucose monitoring. She reports improved labs, including triglycerides dropping by 70mg/dL, but no meaningful weight loss or hoped-for success reducing medications; some lab values were already improving before the program. Human coaching helped motivate exercise, while extensive tracking caused fatigue and raised questions about privacy and trust in higher-stakes medical uses.

    Ray-Ban Meta Audio glasses review: I don’t miss the camera

    Victoria Song finds the camera-free Ray-Ban Meta Audio glasses comfortable and useful as open-ear headphones, while finding Muse Spark helpful mainly for simple requests and reminders. Her review unit lasted two full workdays without returning to its case, but audio suffered from sound leakage and loud surroundings. Removing the camera eased her discomfort wearing smart glasses in public, though she argues that it does not resolve broader privacy concerns and finds the glasses expensive for their current capabilities.

    Where is the next opportunity in industrial AI? Siemens Xcelerator and Aqiu Tech discuss scaling from 1 to 100

    QbitAI's interview program invited Gu Xin, who leads sales and ecosystem success for Siemens Xcelerator in China, and Huang Yao, founder and CEO of Aqiu Tech, to review the path from industrial AI deployment to scale. Huang used semiconductor wafer cutting as an example, saying that after introducing agent technology, equipment OEE and capacity can improve by about 25%. Gu said industrial AI must be reliable at an industrial level. Siemens Xcelerator aims to serve as a connector and amplifier, filling in the delivery and ecosystem pieces needed to scale from 1 to 100.

    From 3D vision to world models: why spatial intelligence is a common thread in AI's move into the physical world | ECCV 2026 recap

    ECCV 2026 received 10,473 submissions and accepted 2,834. The 3D topic fell from a leading area to third place, but questions around 3D representation, geometry, and physical consistency are spreading into video generation, embodied AI, and world models. Of 93 workshops, about 10 were directly related to 3D, 11 to spatial intelligence, nine to physical AI, and five to world models. Best-paper and honorable-mention awards also focused on 3D surface representation, object reconstruction, and geometry perception.

    Meet Astra's TikZ unicorn. I find it mind blowing that a single entity can do this, as well as get essentially 100% on Frontier Math Tier 4, ARC-AGI 3, & ExploitBench. And it's not behind closed doors, anyone can just go and talk to it. Impossible to overstate the implications.
