    Alexandr Wang Reacts to @kirillk_web3’s Muse Spark Post

    @kirillk_web3 says Meta’s Llama 4 disappoints everyone, Meta goes closed with Muse Spark, Zuck writes a $100-200 billion check, Muse Wonder ships on Monday, and 3 days later Meta drops you with open weights: 816 billion parameters, only 42 billion active at a time. https://t.co/031gtR0nHm https://t.co/nEN1JMzvBa Alexandr Wang: “lmao muse spark open balling out” https://t.co/AcUT9o8NEQ

    NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Bolt 74B-A9B 24GB is now on Ollama

    NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Bolt 74B-A9B 24GB is now on Ollama. This vision-language model (VLM) is designed to run everyday agentic tasks locally, using native 2-bit quantization to fit in 24GB of memory and run alongside other applications. ollama run nemotron-3.5-bolt

    Why it matters: The stated memory footprint provides a concrete deployment consideration for running local agentic workloads alongside other applications on the same machine.

    Antigravity Opens Gemini 4 Argon to Paid Google AI Pro Subscribers

    Antigravity announced that Gemini 4 Argon is rolling out today to paid Google AI Pro subscribers, excluding Pro trials, free users, and Google AI Plus subscribers. Access is available through the Antigravity desktop app, CLI, and IDE extensions, but not yet within Antigravity IDE; users are advised to update to the latest version. Argon has a separate weekly quota that does not consume the Gemini 3.8 Flash allowance or refresh every 5 hours; the weekly amount and reset day are unspecified. Official model documentation: https://antigravity.google/docs/models

    Why it matters: The separate weekly Argon quota lets eligible Pro subscribers use Argon without reducing their 3.8 Flash allowance, providing a concrete basis for planning usage across the two models.

    The first review I’ve seen of my upcoming book, Co-Existence, from The New Scientist. (When I became an author, I was surprised to learn you don’t know who is reviewing your book until the review comes out, so it is nice to start with a positive one!) https://www.newscientist.com/article/2593188-how-to-build-a-real-relationship-with-ai-and-keep-your-cognitive-edge/

    Sega pulls the Total War: Shogun 2 remaster after a disastrous launch

    Sega is removing Total War: Shogun 2 — Complete Edition from storefronts after players reported bugs and apparent AI upscaling issues. The remaster of the 2011 strategy game launched on Tuesday with the main game, its DLC, and promised visual and control upgrades, and received an “Overwhelmingly Negative” Steam rating. Sega and Creative Assembly said they would reinstate the original game and work with their development partner to address the problems.

    ChatGPT’s Chrome extension can now access open tabs and control browsing tasks

    OpenAI updated ChatGPT’s Google Chrome extension so ChatGPT can view open browser tabs when users tag Chrome in its web or desktop app. The updated sidebar provides conversation history from Chat or Work without leaving the current page. ChatGPT Work can also control Chrome tabs for tasks such as sending messages, filling out forms, downloading files, and organizing or grouping tabs.

    Trump posts apparently AI-edited photo touting White House restoration work

    President Donald Trump posted White House renovation photos on Truth Social, including a column restoration comparison that appears AI-edited. The Verge independently checked the image with Google’s SynthID Detector, which flagged it as “made or edited with OpenAI.” Inconsistent steps and nearly identical details also raised questions, though real photos show painting work in June. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

    Hollywood’s New Tech Films Take a Sharper View of Silicon Valley

    A new wave of films about Silicon Valley figures presents them more critically than earlier portrayals, reflecting audiences’ dimming views of Big Tech. The films include The Social Reckoning, which connects Facebook’s past decisions to current concerns about Meta’s influence, and Alex Gibney’s Musk documentary, which is screening in select theaters and has faced advertising restrictions. Luca Guadagnino’s Artificial and Nathan Fielder’s You Can See Everything also examine Sam Altman and Elizabeth Holmes, respectively.

    Anthropic Removes Opus 5.5 Fast Mode Waitlist, Keeps Separate Claude Code Billing

    Anthropic has ended research preview and removed the waitlist for Opus 5.5 fast mode on the Claude Platform, offering the same model at up to 2.5x faster speeds. API pricing is $8 per million input tokens and $40 per million output tokens, twice the standard rate; Claude Code fast mode still uses separately billed extra usage credits. Fast mode is also available in Microsoft Foundry, with Google Cloud coming soon.

    RTX Spark laptop completes Artificial Analysis local agent workload in 18.7 minutes

    NVIDIA's RTX Spark N1X puts up to 128 GB of unified memory and a Blackwell GPU in a Windows laptop. In Artificial Analysis's first AA-AgentPerf-Local results, an RTX Spark laptop completes its local agent workload on Qwen3.8 27B in 18.7 minutes. Artificial Analysis describes RTX Spark's N1X chip as essentially the GB10, linking to https://t.co/520A4lOOdB

    We're sending a bunch of Microducks to assess @AnthropicAI! Kidding aside, it hasn't been approved yet but in my opinion, it's very important that open-source engineers and scientists are included in these important endeavors for transparency. That's a big part of why @Thom_Wolf is starting the open alignment initiative. We're all in this together!

    Granite Switch 4.1 Combines Chat, Decisions, and Speech in One Endpoint

    IBM released Granite-Switch-4.1-8B and -30B, combining chat, a general-purpose Decision aLoRA, a specialized Guardian aLoRA, and Granite-Speech-5.0-Turbo-CTC transcription through one hosted endpoint. IBM says the combined model uses approximately the same GPU VRAM as its base model, with adapters reusing the base model’s KV cache. Users can also compose custom Switch models from Granite Libraries adapters; an Adapter SDK for training adapters in Mellea is planned.

    Why it matters: Shared KV caches and modular adapters offer a concrete approach to combining general and specialized decisions with transcription while keeping GPU memory use close to the base model.

    Bluesky’s Attie AI tool now lets users make games and social apps

    Bluesky’s Attie AI tool, initially launched earlier this year for building feeds, now lets users prompt it to create small social apps such as games, polls, and dashboards, shared as standalone websites. Jay Peters reports that his Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue poll took a few minutes to generate. Featured examples include a Flappy Bird clone and a drum machine, with custom links on attie.site and creator attribution.

    Amazon’s Panos Panay Sees Ambient AI Devices Making Apps Less Important

    Amazon devices chief Panos Panay said ambient devices that use sensors and AI could handle more tasks in the background, making app-based interactions less important. He described Amazon’s new Bee devices, introduced Thursday, which passively record audio and take notes; they process audio in real time and delete it afterward. Panay said he expects an intelligence layer connecting different devices, rather than one form factor replacing another.

    Meta launches Muse Spark Open, an open-weight AI model designed for Macs

    Meta has launched Muse Spark Open, a natively multimodal open-weight model with 816 billion parameters and a 1 million token context window, built for complex coding tasks and agentic workflows. It is designed to run locally on Macs, though Engadget reports it requires at least 1 terabyte of RAM. Meta claims superior performance over other popular open-weight models in its evaluations and is making the model available now through multiple API platforms.
