The White House accord signed this week by 29 AI companies including Google, OpenAI and Meta commits each firm to partner with an independent external auditor and have board members review the findings. On paper it looks like real accountability. But as Samuel Vance-Law of the D…
When hardware wallet maker Ledger announced its new device, the Ledger Atom, it wasn’t just releasing another piece of security hardware — it was acknowledging that crypto self-custody can no longer live in isolation. Priced at $899 and designed to function as a full smartphone…
The developer education platform EasyA has reached an independent valuation of $1.1 billion and is targeting a direct listing in the first half of 2027. What makes this milestone stand out is the company’s plan to make its shares available onchain from the first day of trading,…
The world’s largest custody bank and the trading giant Citadel Securities announced this week that they had completed a transaction using tokenized Treasuries to show how blockchain technology could move assets from trading into financing more quickly. By using a tokenised U.S. …
Hardware wallets are supposed to be the gold standard for self-custody of cryptocurrency — a physical device that keeps your private keys offline and out of reach of remote attackers. That assumption was dealt a severe blow this week when Ledger confirmed that a covert implant i…
The UK government has announced it will force Apple and Google to block the taking, sharing, and viewing of nude images on children’s smartphones through legislation, after months of voluntary talks failed to produce a breakthrough. Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy told the House of…
Nvidia’s $3.5 billion convertible bond investment in MediaTek, announced on Monday, sent the Taiwanese chipmaker’s shares soaring 10% to hit their daily trading limit in Taipei. The deal, Nvidia’s largest direct investment outside the United States, pairs the world’s most valua…
Today, the model context protocol is what we’re all standardising on for communication between agents and tools. To facilitate this tool access, I’ve embedded an MCP server in Mu which agents can use to access the blog, news, chat, video and so on. It also includes mail if they …
We check our phones 100 times a day. Not because we want to but because we’ve been programmed to. The internet stopped being a tool to help us and instead became an addiction, one we need to escape.
Three restaurant workers wrestling with a malfunctioning dance robot at a Haidilao hot pot restaurant in California has become the week’s most telling tech story — not because of its viral entertainment value, but because it exposes a fundamental gap in how we’re deploying autom…
The artificial intelligence industry has convinced itself that bigger is always better. Massive language models with hundreds of billions of parameters require enormous data centers, expensive cloud subscriptions, and constant internet connectivity. Companies like Multiverse Com…
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes filed the first criminal charges against Kalshi this week, marking a crucial inflection point in how American states will regulate prediction markets. The charges — 20 misdemeanor counts including operating an illegal gambling business and ele…
Tech platforms are racing to build AI agent marketplaces, but the real story isn’t about automation — it’s about who controls the value chain. Picsart’s new marketplace lets creators “hire” AI assistants for tasks like resizing images and editing product photos. Nvidia’s NemoCla…
Mu is built almost entirely by Claude. Not as a gimmick or a demo — as the actual development process. Every feature you see on this site, from the blog you’re reading to the chat rooms, the news feeds, the weather forecasts, the wallet system — Claude wrote the code, debugged i…
As much as I can make use of agents with copilot, anthropic and exe.dev I’ve found trying to add something here is a distraction. It does not yet serve a purpose. For now we have a simple set of apps that do something well. In future we may add more but not yet. Also apps builde…
I used to say if I don’t write the code no one will write the code. This was at a time time when I was trying to raise venture capital to build a team and a product. Much like this one. Now less than 10 years later agents write the code. What does one even say to that? I think w…
I’m rapidly iterating on the ux. You’ll see there’s access to a top bar on the homepage that’s for an agent which can sort of use specific tools like news search and playing videos directly so you don’t have to search for them.
I’m reading this article that showed up on HN and thinking back to scribblings in a notebook from 2018. I remember having this concept of inputs/outputs and transformers but I’m too dumb to have connected the dots to this. That system I was considering, you have to feed in real …
Came across this article on transformers on HN. Haven’t read the full thing yet but thought I needed to save/share it.
You will be seeing a lot of changes here as I continue to evolve the format. It’s important to get it right.
