Another Google Deepmind researcher quits, says building superintelligent AI soon is "inherently irresponsible"↗

Google Deepmind researcher Robert O'Callahan has quit, saying AI's "current rate of change is far too high." He worked on chip design tools that helped make AI cheaper and faster, a contribution he can no longer justify. Many colleagues share his concerns but rarely speak out, he says.

Phones don’t have lights↗

Mark Zuckerberg has a new defense of the Ray-Ban Meta glasses: They're actually doing more to signal they're taking a photo than phones do. He's brought this up in at least two recent interviews, noting that the glasses have a light that comes on to signal when a photo is being taken, while phones do not. In one of the interviews, Joanna Stern notes that, while phones do not always emit a light, someone does have to hold a phone up in the air, which is itself pretty noticeable. On today's Vergecast , we're talking about Meta Connect, the Muse AI assistant, all the new smart glasses hardware, a

Meta makes the Muse filesystem even more accessible↗

Yesterday, with a little prodding, it was discovered that Meta's Muse would expose its filesystem to curious users. The files offered a fascinating peek under the hood of an AI chatbot, and appeared to expose details we weren't meant to see, not least because Muse itself told people, including us, it wasn't supposed to reveal them. But today Muse will eagerly offer up the contents of its file system when you ask for it. That appears to be because, as Meta's Nat Friedman later said, this is the " intended behavior. " In a post on X, Meta Superintelligence Labs' David Singleton elaborated: This

Microsoft gives Copilot another makeover, adding an Autopilot agent and usage-based billing↗

Microsoft is splitting its Copilot app into three sections: Home, Code, and a new agent called "Autopilot." Built on OpenClaw, the agent runs continuously in the cloud, where it can monitor Teams channels and complete tasks on its own, according to Microsoft. For Autopilot and Code, the company is also switching to usage-based billing instead of flat-rate pricing, moving further away from its AI subsidy model.
