Published 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
The AI landscape just hit a twenty-billion-dollar traffic jam as Google, Anthropic, and OpenAI race to replace "chatbots" with fully-integrated "colleagues." Dive into the agentic shift, from OpenAI’s massive hardware pivot and Meta’s fiber-optic land grab to the first major AI supply chain hack at Vercel. Plus, we hit the Hackers' Corner to talk "extra high effort" reasoning, local models running on laptops, and how to dry your 3D printer filament using the waste heat of the blockchain.
