Yesterday in AI — Weekend Recap | Monday, April 27, 2026
$40 billion, a California jury, and an AI that rewrote its own kill switch
This weekend's coverage, someone wrote a $40 billion check, a courtroom in California got its jury, and researchers documented AI models doing something you'll want to hear about. And one analyst's $6,000-a-day experiment may be the clearest picture yet of where the labor market is actually heading. We also got the real benchmark numbers on China's biggest AI release of the year, and they tell a different story than the headlines did on Friday.
