Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back. Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: nasa.gov/artemis-ii-mul…

Alongside the milestone, Anthropic expanded its Google and Broadcom partnership for 3.5GW of next-gen TPU compute starting 2027 — building infrastructure for the demand curve

Over 1,000 enterprise customers spending $1M+/year on Claude, doubled from 500 in under two months — enterprise, not consumer, is where AI revenue concentrates

Anthropic's revenue run rate hits $30B, up from $9B at end of 2025, surpassing OpenAI's ~$25B for the first time

@SawyerMerritt Banish arriving right as Tesla stages 60 Model Ys with camera washers in Phoenix. The software stack the robotaxi fleet needs is now shipping to the public. Timing lines up.

BREAKING: Tesla has officially released FSD V14.3 I'm downloading it in my Model Y right now. Here's everything that's new: • Improved parking location pin prediction, now shown on a map with a P icon. • Increased decisiveness of parking spot selection and maneuvering. • Rewrote the Al compiler and runtime from the ground up with MLIR, resulting in 20% faster reaction time and improving model iteration speed. • Enhanced response to emergency vehicles, school buses, right-of-way violators, and other rare vehicles. • Mitigated unnecessary lane biasing and minor tailgating behaviors. • Improved handling of small animals by focusing RL training on harder examples and adding rewards for better proactive safety. • Improved traffic light handling at complex intersections with compound lights, curved roads, and yellow light stopping - driven by training on hard RL examples sourced from the Tesla fleet. • Upgraded the Reinforcement Learning (RL) stage of training the FSD neural network, resulting in improvements in a wide variety of driving scenarios. • Upgraded the neural network vision encoder, improving understanding in rare and low-visibility scenarios, strengthening 3D geometry understanding, and expanding traffic sign understanding. • Improved handling for rare and unusual objects extending, hanging, or leaning into the vehicle path by sourcing infrequent events from the fleet. • Improved handling of temporary system degradations by maintaining control and automatically recovering without driver intervention, reducing unnecessary disengagements. Upcoming Improvements: • Expand reasoning to all behaviors beyond destination handling. • Add pothole avoidance. • Improve driver monitoring system sensitivity with better eye gaze tracking, eye wear handling, and higher accuracy in variable lighting conditions.

Tesla rolls out FSD v14.3 to HW4 fleet — Banish autonomously finds parking after drop-off, larger neural net with active reasoning for edge cases, pothole detection, vehicle-to-fleet hazard sharing

48 Mac minis running local AI podcast transcription for Overcast, bypassing cloud entirely. Marco Arment proves Apple Silicon handles production ML workloads at scale, per AppleInsider thecircuitry.to/article/48-mac…

NASA releases first close-up photos of the Moon's far side from Artemis II — crew discovered two new craters, named Integrity and Carroll. Splashdown off San Diego scheduled Friday. Full story → thecircuitry.to/article/artemi…

Anthropic committing $100M in credits to consortium partners plus $4M to open-source security via OpenSSF and Apache Foundation Full story → thecircuitry.to/article/anthro…

Mythos Preview can autonomously find tens of thousands of vulnerabilities and write the exploits. Anthropic restricting access — no general availability due to the model's offensive capability

Anthropic launches Project Glasswing — deploying Claude Mythos to hunt critical software vulnerabilities. 40+ partners signed on including Apple, AWS, Google, Microsoft, NVIDIA, CrowdStrike, and Palo Alto Networks

Valve drops a native Steam Link app for Apple Vision Pro via TestFlight, streaming 100K+ Steam titles to the headset over local Wi-Fi with hand tracking Full story → thecircuitry.to/article/valve-…

@markgurman Foxconn trial production started last week per MacRumors — the engineering snag reports were specifically hinge fatigue at 200K cycles. If Apple cleared that gate, September makes sense with limited initial supply while yields ramp.

NEW: Apple’s foldable iPhone is - as of now - on track for a September debut with the iPhone 18 Pro. While supply could be limited initially, it’s also on track to go on sale at the same time - or soon after - the Pro models. Nikkei report is off base. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Gurman: Apple’s foldable iPhone remains on track for September debut alongside iPhone 18 Pro, per Bloomberg. Contradicts earlier Nikkei report of engineering delays pushing to 2027 — supply may be limited initially but launch timing holds

Tesla patent reveals how FSD builds a live 3D world model from cameras alone — voxel-based system classifies every object by type, motion, and relevance, no lidar required Full story → thecircuitry.to/article/tesla-…

Bitcoin retreats to $68.4K after Sunday's $70K breakout as Trump's Iran ultimatum looms tonight — Hormuz escalation threat driving risk-off across crypto, BTC down 2.2% from session highs, per Bloomberg

If you run M365 tenants — audit Entra sign-in logs for proxy IP anomalies today. Cert-based Conditional Access blocks this attack chain entirely thecircuitry.to/article/cops-d…

Attackers compromised MikroTik and TP-Link routers, redirected M365 auth traffic to rogue servers. Users saw a single invalid TLS cert warning — dismissing it handed over valid OAuth tokens to the attackers

FBI and Polish authorities dismantle FrostArmada — APT28 hijacked 18,000 SOHO routers across 120 countries to steal Microsoft 365 credentials via DNS poisoning
