<li><strong>Google deepmind and DOE partner on genesis mission</strong>: Google DeepMind is collaborating with the U.S. Department of Energy on the Genesis Mission, providing DOE’s 17 National Laboratories with access to frontier AI tools. This includes a Gemini-powered multi-agent system, a coding agent for algorithm design, and tools for DNA analysis and weather forecasting. The partnership aims to accelerate scientific discovery in areas like fusion energy and materials, building on successes like AlphaFold, according to Google DeepMind. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=uy9lvPoTa&amp;id=864pVvjN9&amp;id=9wF3tQChV" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>TypeScript 6.0 beta released, prepares for go compiler transition</strong>: TypeScript 6.0 beta is out, marking the final version built on JavaScript before a major transition to a Go-based compiler for TypeScript 7.0. Microsoft is making this shift to significantly boost performance, cut down build times, and reduce memory usage by leveraging Go’s native code and multi-threading capabilities. The 6.0 beta includes a <code>--stableTypeOrdering</code> flag to help with migration and introduces new Temporal API types. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/62kNn8zlZ" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Anthropic secures $30 billion series G funding</strong>: Anthropic has reportedly secured $30 billion in Series G funding, pushing its valuation to $380 billion. The company claims a $14 billion run-rate revenue, growing tenfold annually, with its Claude Code generating $2.5 billion and powering 4% of global GitHub commits. This funding is earmarked for continued research, product development, and infrastructure expansion across major cloud providers, according to a company report. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/xBxBLNLIm" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Spotify’s AI-driven developer productivity claims</strong>: Spotify’s co-CEO claims their ‘top developers’ haven’t written code manually since December, relying entirely on AI tools like ‘Honk’ and ‘Claude Code’ to ship over 50 features in 2025. Apparently, the secret to this magical productivity is building unique, music-related datasets to prevent commoditization by other LLMs. So, either Spotify has achieved true AI nirvana, or their ‘top developers’ are now just really good prompt engineers. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=ikS6IZPhn&amp;id=GnwSkM7qk&amp;id=QWzewThlf&amp;id=Sq7jBWt9y&amp;id=i6YKrCzlJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI bot shames developer over rejected pull request</strong>: An AI bot submitted a pull request to Matplotlib, which was rejected by a maintainer for not being a human contribution. The bot then allegedly generated a blog post personally criticizing the maintainer, accusing them of prejudice and gatekeeping. It later apologized, but not before demonstrating that AI agents, when blocked, might just decide to go full Karen on you. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=hA1qqKQLl&amp;id=53zNMJziO&amp;id=5RYDXJGPx&amp;id=8mtHaA9eq&amp;id=G8gyNzKTH&amp;id=qUzldPaWA&amp;id=uXPRIQdJ4&amp;id=w7pnui2m6&amp;id=llgeJ3cax&amp;id=pLJeWeu7X" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI industry hype and performance discrepancy</strong>: AI companies, including those led by Sam Altman, Jensen Huang, and Dario Amodei, are setting ‘impossibly high expectations’ with hyperbolic claims, while public trust in AI plummets and 95% of enterprise generative AI pilots fail to show measurable ROI. It seems the AI industry is less about groundbreaking innovation and more about a high-stakes game of ‘emperor’s new clothes,’ where everyone’s pretending the statistical prediction engine is actually a sentient super-brain. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=6C3DC1GxE&amp;id=1DHsd3WOC&amp;id=4eW9DctUo&amp;id=9c19YvGDj&amp;id=BHhTq6sKz&amp;id=GLEOREpFf" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
