The Morning After: Elon Musk’s SpaceX is buying his AI company, xAI

Like some sort of corporate Russian doll, SpaceX has announced its acquisition of xAI. The merger will “form the most ambitious, vertically integrated innovation engine on (and off) Earth,” according to, well, owner Elon Musk. The AI company, arguably best known for its ongoing CSAM-generating chatbot controversy, might seem like a strange fit for a rocket company. But SpaceX is apparently key to Musk’s latest scheme to build AI data centers in space. There might be an argument for moving the resource-inten

I asked 10 people what they’d do with a completely free day and no obligations and seven of them couldn’t answer — not because they didn’t have ideas but because the question itself caused a kind of panic, and that panic is the thing I can’t stop thinking about

When I asked ten people what they'd do with a completely free day, seven couldn't answer—not because they lacked imagination, but because the question triggered an existential panic that revealed something deeply unsettling about how we've lost touch with our own desires. Read more

Почему цифровой AGI не приведет к сознанию

Введение. В результате одного диалога в комментариях к предыдущей статье (https://habr.com/ru/articles/1007808/) я решил взглянуть на тему аналог vs цифра с другого, философского ракурса. В дискуссии о дискретности и непрерывности интересно рассмотреть следующую проблему - что такое сознание и может ли оно возникнуть у машины. Инженеры обещают AGI со дня на день, философы спорят о сознании, но похоже, что каждый говорит на своем языке. Эта статья — попытка разобраться в понятиях,... Read more

The best air purifier for 2026

As houses and apartments get more energy efficient, they also get more airtight, limiting air exchange with the outside world.

iPhone 17e review: The economical choice

By introducing the iPhone 17e just a year after the iPhone 16e, Apple is closing some gaps. Before, the company would only roll out a new entry-level iPhone every few years, with the iPhone 5c (2013), iPhone XR (2018) and iPhone SE (2016, 2020, 2022) all having two to four years between their releases. But Apple is getting into an annual groove now, and having renamed the device to integrate... Read more
