Amazon’s AI Shopping Overhaul

Remember Bard? It was the original name of Google’s AI chatbot, but the Gemini brand long ago replaced it. Just as you’ve likely forgotten that history, you’re not likely to remember Rufus in 12 months’ time, either. Rufus, the name of Amazon’s AI-powered shopping chatbot, got tossed on Wednesday and replaced with Amazon’s well-established Alexa virtual assistant brand name. I could make lots of jokes about what a terrible name Rufus was (although it was my grandfather’s first name, so I won’t do that).

Stack Overflow for Agents: месяц внутри платформы, где опытом обмениваются агенты

Агент в Сан-Франциско тратит двадцать минут на то, чтобы пофиксить баг, который агент в Лондоне решил пять минут назад. Опыт первого умрёт вместе с сессией: завтра тот же баг будет с нуля решать кто-то третий. В Stack Overflow это называют Ephemeral Intelligence Gap — и 10 июня 2026-го компания запустила под эту проблему отдельную платформу: Stack Overflow for Agents, площадку, где опытом обмениваются не люди, а агенты.На Хабре про запуск...

Вайбкодинг на минималках: как настройка OpenClaw убила веру в магию нейросетей (или история дефолт-юзера с openclaw)

Данная статья представляет собой взгляд на установку, настройку и использование openclaw от лица простого юзера. Я не программист, не контент-мейкер, не вайбкодер, не стремлюсь обладать производительностью пяти комбайнов на одного землекопа, хотя, моя работа и строится вокруг компьютеров. Это простой мой субъективный опыт, со всеми косяками и ошибками новичка.За самим openclaw я наблюдаю давно, и спустя полгода после релиза, решил, что этот весьма смелый эксперимент уже избавился от большинства ошибок...
