Today's Briefing: We break down Google’s surprise launch of Gemini 3.1 Pro, which doubles the reasoning performance of its predecessor. We also explore Microsoft's "Project Silica" storing data in glass for ten millennia, the Trump administration's plan for Freedom.gov, and the massive $1 billion funding round for Fei-Fei Li’s World Labs as the industry looks beyond LLMs toward "Spatial Intelligence."
