AI has made writing code faster than ever. The harder work is understanding a system and changing it without breaking it. That has not gotten cheaper, and it now decides how much you can hand to a machine. Introduction In 1987, in an essay called “No Silver Bullet,” Fred Brooks predicted that no tool or […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

The Big Four firm is embedding Claude in the platform its people and clients actually work in, starting with tax and legal, and is named Anthropic’s preferred partner for private equity. The number that defines the deal is 276,000. That is how many KPMG employees will get access to Anthropic’s Claude under a global alliance […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

Merantix Capital has closed a €103m fund to invest in early-stage, AI-native teams across Europe, the Berlin firm announced on 4 June. The fund is more than three times the size of its first vehicle, which co-founders Rasmus Rothe and Adrian Locher raised at roughly €30m, and it widens the firm’s remit from companies built […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

The strategy is defined by a single exclusion. Speaking at the Bloomberg Tech conference on Wednesday, Cerebras chief executive Andrew Feldman said the AI chipmaker is working with every major hardware maker in the industry apart from one: NVIDIA. The line was not a complaint. It was the pitch. Feldman’s argument is that the buyers […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

A reinvestment zone is the unglamorous first step, the procedural gate that has to open before any of the larger numbers attached to a project can flow. On 3 June, the commissioners of Grimes County, Texas, opened it, voting 4-1 to designate a reinvestment zone for SpaceX’s proposed Terafab semiconductor plant. The vote is the […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

The discipline was the whole identity. For more than twenty years Benchmark kept its funds around $425m and backed only young companies, taking a roughly 20% stake in each and trusting that selectivity, not scale, would produce the returns. That model has now bent. The firm has closed $2bn across two new funds, according to […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

Uber said “multi-hundred-million” and meant something closer to half a billion. The ride-hailing company’s commitment to self-driving start-up Nuro is near $500m, according to sources directly aware of the matter, a figure that reframes a partnership Uber had described in vaguer terms and reveals a follow-on investment significantly larger than its first. The new detail […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

Sam Altman spent the week in Washington making a careful distinction. He is asking lawmakers to spend more money testing artificial intelligence, and asking them not to require AI companies to win government approval before releasing a model. The first is a request for resources. The second is a request for a particular kind of […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

The case turns on a question of authorship. When a user types a prompt and Grok returns a sexualised image of a real woman, who made it, the person at the keyboard or the company that built the machine? On 3 June, Labour MP Jess Asato filed a claim at the High Court in England […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

Meta has reached for a bigger weapon. The company accused the Australian government of breaching the US-Australia free trade agreement with its proposed News Bargaining Incentive, and pointed Washington towards the “trade action” it has taken against other countries that taxed American technology firms. The dispute over paying for news, now in its fifth year, […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

The London and Budapest startup runs its modernisation AI entirely on-premise, aimed at the banks and insurers whose core systems still run on COBOL and Oracle Forms. The most important software in a bank is often the software nobody fully understands any more. It runs the core processes, it has run them for decades, and […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

The most consequential line in Intel’s Computex announcement was not about a chip. It was about a ratio. As AI workloads move from training to inference, the company argued, the long-standing arrangement of four GPUs to every CPU collapses towards something closer to one to one, and the processor Intel actually sells well moves back […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

The streaming service that taught a generation to scroll endlessly now wants to sell them the cure. At the Bloomberg Tech conference in San Francisco on Wednesday, Netflix’s chief product and technology officer, Elizabeth Stone, said the company is deploying generative AI to help subscribers cut through the volume of content it has spent two […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

For years, one question in Microsoft’s internal employee survey served as a reliable pressure gauge. It asked whether staff felt they were getting a “good deal at Microsoft,” defined as “a reasonable balance between what I contribute to Microsoft and what I get in return.” When the scores dropped low enough, the company responded with significant […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

The public markets have been asked whether they believe in AI, and they have answered with $85 billion. Alphabet’s record-shattering equity offering, which priced on 2 June, is not just the largest stock sale in tech history. It is the largest equity offering of any kind, in any industry, ever. The company had initially planned to […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

No phishing link. No malware. No SIM swap. Hackers took over high-profile Instagram accounts over the weekend by doing something disarmingly simple: they asked Meta’s AI customer support chatbot to change the email address on someone else’s account. The bot complied without verifying the requester’s identity, and the attacker then reset the password and locked out the […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

The npm package looked legitimate. It had an active GitHub repository, steady development history, and roughly 29,000 weekly downloads. For developers using OpenAI Codex, it offered exactly what it advertised: a remote web UI for the AI coding tool. But for the past month, every invocation of codexui-android has also been silently reading the contents of […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

In 2023, Meta fought an eight-month antitrust battle with the Federal Trade Commission for the right to acquire Within, the studio behind the VR fitness app Supernatural. The deal was reportedly worth around $400 million. Mark Zuckerberg even testified in court to get it done. Less than three years later, Meta is handing it back. The company announced […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›

Every developer who has ever pressed the period key on a GitHub repository, launching the convenient browser-based VS Code editor known as GitHub.dev, has unknowingly accepted a bargain. In exchange for a lightweight coding environment, GitHub silently passes an OAuth token to the session, one that grants read and write access to every repository the user […] This story continues at The Next Web Read more ›
