Contract manufacturers have warned Microsoft, Google, and Oracle about the higher costs.
I've been puzzled by something: AI generation can produce an elaborate figurine, a cartoon character, even a convincing Super Mario — yet it can't reliably make a simple wedge ramp so my robot vacuum can climb a step. For context: I bought a Bambu P2S but can't model. I tried the "describe it and get a model" AIs — the output is unusable, you can't adjust it, it's never quite what I meant. I tried having an agent write Python to build geometry directly — it tops out at simple primitives. What fi
AI is a lightning rod for opinions these days, so here are two stories that highlight both the rush to invest and the need for cautious adoption.

Is it just me or is GPU capacity surprisingly hard to find right now , even in Spot pools? I’ve been trying to get H100s and the Spot pools I’ve checked are pretty much always full. I ended up trying MI350/MI355s on DigitalOcean Spot and have been running them for about a week without getting interrupted. Curious if anyone else has tried them? How often are you actually getting reclaimed? Also, where are you guys finding capacity these days? Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=494

I remember having a Spirograph as a kid and being obsessed with it. Its geometric patterns are hypnotic and gorgeous. I also love generative music composition. So bringing those two things together in a browser tab, I'm hooked. Musical Spirograph is a relatively simple concept. A set of points dash around the screen according to […]

OpenAI is calling for California to strengthen SB 53, an AI safety bill that the company previously opposed.
A new study finds leading AI labs have few publicly documented plans for containing rogue models, raising questions about preparedness as AI systems increasingly demonstrate unexpected and potentially dangerous behavior.
<p>The key skill required to make productive use of coding agents is being able to confidently instruct them on how to make changes and then confidently verify that those changes have been applied in the correct way.</p> <p>Sometimes this involves reviewing every line of code they have written, but there are other ways to achieve that goal. Eyeballing every line of code has never been the most effective way to validate a change to a piece of software.</p> <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.

Hi HN, I am Ram. For the last few months I have been building Anjadhe. It is a personal AI assistant for macOS. The main idea is simple: A macOS app where AI does the job of a personal assistant for the user. Not a chat only app where user needs to dig through chats to understand today’s schedule or a project they planned with the ai last week, but a canvas where the user and AI work together around basic tools. I started building this as DYI tool for myself, but at this point I see that its tru
