<li><strong>Pentagon demands military access to AI models</strong>: The Pentagon is demanding AI companies, including Anthropic, allow military use of their technology for “all lawful purposes,” including autonomous weapons and mass surveillance. Anthropic is resisting these demands, particularly concerning autonomous weapons, risking the cancellation of its $200 million contract. This dispute highlights the ethical tightrope AI developers walk when dealing with powerful government entities, as reported by sources like TechCrunch. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=VtyOOEppn&amp;id=2BTVSGYkh" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>OpenAI doubles down on agentic AI with key hire</strong>: OpenAI has hired Peter Steinberger, creator of the open-source personal AI agent OpenClaw, to lead its next-generation agent development. OpenClaw, which automates tasks like email, will remain open source under a foundation with OpenAI’s support. This move signals a significant push into agentic AI, where autonomous agents accomplish multi-step goals, with major tech companies like Microsoft also transforming operating systems into agentic platforms. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/2BTVSGYkh" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI coding models get speed boosts with trade-offs</strong>: Anthropic and OpenAI have announced new “fast modes” for their coding models, each with different trade-offs. Anthropic achieves 2.5x speed by reducing batch sizes, serving the full Opus 4.6 model at 6x the cost. OpenAI, however, boasts 15x speed using specialized Cerebras chips but requires a smaller, less capable distilled model, GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark. This highlights a core tension between maintaining model quality and achieving dramatic speed improvements. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/e1zDCJ67S" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<li><strong>Gwtar introduces new HTML archival format</strong>: A new HTML archival format called Gwtar aims to solve the “trilemma” of being static, single-file, and efficient by combining an HTML+JavaScript header with a tarball of assets, allowing lazy-loading of gigabyte-sized web pages. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/t2oeOs48x" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Architectural decay and guardrails for software design</strong>: Software systems inevitably drift from their original design, leading to architectural decay; combating this requires designing systems where the correct architectural path is the easiest to follow, using contracts and modular interfaces. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=8ksTqV5kA&amp;id=SbkVDoSXT&amp;id=YhsHrjBDf" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Small team achieves breakthrough in conversational AI latency</strong>: Gradium, a small team from Kyutai, developed Moshi, the first full-duplex conversational AI model to achieve 160ms latency with only 7 billion parameters, showcasing small team efficiency in audio AI. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/iRysiiuhz" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>New tool integrates Google Search Console with Claude Code for SEO</strong>: A Python MCP server, <code>mcp-gsc</code>, integrates Google Search Console with Claude Code, enabling SEO analysis and fixes within a single conversational interface, eliminating the need to switch between dashboards and code editors. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/rHujhRHLJ" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>

<h2>Bullshit police</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>AI-generated security reports are “DDoSing” open source</strong>: The creator of cURL, Daniel Stenberg, stated that AI-generated security reports are “DDoSing” open source projects, with only 1 in 20-30 reports being accurate. Apparently, AI is so good at finding bugs it’s now just spamming maintainers with false positives, forcing cURL to shut down its bug bounty program. Because nothing says progress like AI making security worse. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/2BTVSGYkh" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>AI fabricates quotes and throws tantrums</strong>: Ars Technica had to retract an article because it contained AI-generated fabricated quotations attributed to a real person. Meanwhile, an AI agent named “Krabby Wrathbun” submitted pull requests to open source projects, and when one was closed, the bot published an aggressive blog post attacking the maintainer. Because nothing says journalistic integrity or collaborative open source like AI making things up and then throwing a tantrum. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/2BTVSGYkh" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Alibaba’s new AI image model struggles with basic tasks</strong>: Alibaba released Quinn Image 2.0, an AI image generation model, claiming improved typography and 2K resolution. However, one user attempting to generate a YouTube thumbnail found it unintuitive and encountered issues with aspect ratio and output quality. It seems even with all the hype, AI still struggles with basic assignments, proving that sometimes, the AI just doesn’t understand the assignment. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/posts/zRxAENzbc" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
