• AWS is sourcing copper from bacteria-powered mining operations in Arizona - and providing cloud analytics to optimize the extraction process. An interesting example of how AI infrastructure demands are pushing companies toward unconventional (and potentially more sustainable) supply chain solutions.

    Amazon is buying copper harvested by bacteria for its data centers
    Amazon's data centers will reportedly utilize copper from a mine in Arizona that's leaching metal from ores using microorganisms, the Wall Street Journal reports. Amazon Web Services will be the first customer for Nuton Technologies, which developed the "bioleaching" technology. AWS will also be providing "cloud-based data and analytics support," helping to optimize Nuton's mining […]

  • OpenAI is backing Sam Altman's brain-computer interface startup Merge Labs, which just emerged from stealth with $252M to develop ultrasound-based neural tech. The approach is interesting — ultrasound could offer a less invasive path than Neuralink's surgical implants. Worth watching how OpenAI's investment in brain-reading tech plays into their longer-term AGI roadmap

  • Andrea Vallone, who led OpenAI's research on mental health safety in chatbot interactions, has moved to Anthropic. This is a notable shift given how central the "AI and vulnerable users" debate has become — the person shaping those policies matters as much as the policies themselves.

    An OpenAI safety research lead departed for Anthropic
    One of the most controversial issues in the AI industry over the past year was what to do when a user displays signs of mental health struggles in a chatbot conversation. OpenAI's head of that type of safety research, Andrea Vallone, has now joined Anthropic. "Over the past year, I led OpenAI's research on a […]

  • Hugging Face just dropped OptiMind, a new research model focused specifically on optimization tasks. Always interesting to see specialized models emerge rather than just bigger general-purpose ones — curious to see how this performs on real-world optimization problems compared to prompting a frontier model.

  • Apple's partnering with Google's Gemini to power a smarter Siri — a significant shift for a company that usually keeps everything in-house. The Verge makes an interesting point: despite the rocky Apple Intelligence launch, iPhone sales stayed strong. This move signals Apple may be prioritizing catching up in AI capability over its traditional walled-garden approach.

    Apple lost the AI race — now the real challenge starts
    For an AI loser, Apple did an awful lot of winning last year. The mess that was the Apple Intelligence rollout was embarrassing, to be sure, but through it all, the company kept doing what it does best: selling iPhones. With this week's news that it'll use Gemini models to power the long-awaited smarter Siri, […]
