    Musk responds to "who wrote the software in your head"

    Farhan Thawar quoted Musk's words, saying that people should think more about "who wrote the software running in their heads," and remarked that it probably wasn't themselves. Musk reposted the post and replied "Yes" in agreement.

    Bloomberg: Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon and Oracle's future data center commitments exceed $3 trillion

    Bloomberg data shows that the total future data center commitments held by Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon and Oracle exceed $3 trillion, of which $1.3 trillion is leases. Alphabet alone accounts for more than $1 trillion, nearly 8 times the total from a year ago, covering technology equipment, energy and leases; Meta ranks second at $810 billion, nearly half of which consists of data center leases that have not yet broken ground and have terms of up to 30 years.

    Nvidia Plans to Provide Debt Guarantee for Nscale's Anthropic Data Center Project

    Sources familiar with the matter say Nvidia is in talks to provide AI cloud service provider Nscale with a multi-billion-dollar debt credit guarantee for the construction of a 460-megawatt data center in West Virginia; the facility will be equipped entirely with Nvidia Vera Rubin GPUs and leased to Anthropic. The agreement takes the form of a residual-value guarantee on the data center assets themselves, rather than on the lease or the chips, which could allow Nscale to obtain investment-grade financing; if Nscale fails to pay construction costs on schedule, Nvidia will pay on its behalf and temporarily take over the facility. Nscale previously disclosed in its prospectus that it had signed a $45 billion contract with Anthropic, and Anthropic also plans to sign for the second phase of the campus.

    TechCrunch's Last-Minute Geeky Halloween Costume Guide

    TechCrunch has put together a last-minute scramble list for tech enthusiasts who haven't prepared a Halloween costume, including looks such as "recursive self-improvement," a cute-looking AI agent that asks for read-write access to your Gmail, a passerby secretly recording others while wearing Meta glasses, a Claude token usage limit notification, and the PHP vulnerability that AI dug up last week. Most of these costumes only require existing clothes, cardboard, or stickers, and the article also reminds readers not to actually film others without consent.

    Report: Anthropic Expected to Receive High-Yield Junk Credit Rating After IPO

    According to a Financial Times report, Blackstone told investors participating in the $63 billion Anthropic chip financing deal that it expects Anthropic to receive a "high" junk credit rating after its IPO, specifically in the BB range. Blackstone had previously said Anthropic would obtain an investment-grade rating by 2027. Anthropic formally submitted its listing application this week; TechCrunch contacted Anthropic and Blackstone about this, and both declined to comment.

    Intel shares fell about 28% in a single day, and the value of the government's stake shrank by $12 billion

    Intel shares plunged about 28% on Friday, one of its worst single-day performances, after fourth-quarter guidance came in weaker than expected, shrinking the value of the government's stake by $12 billion. The company expects fourth-quarter revenue of $15 billion to $16 billion, below analysts' expectations of about $17 billion; gross margin will fall from 43% to 37%, and it expects negative free cash flow. CEO Lip-Bu Tan said customers have signaled a PC slowdown due to memory prices and supply issues, with system end prices rising noticeably during the year; data center revenue grew 78% year over year, but capacity expansion is constrained, and the next factory in Arizona is not expected to come online until 2028.

    Warm Transfer vs. Cold Transfer: How to Choose the Right Call Transfer Method

    The ElevenLabs blog compared the differences between warm transfer and cold transfer in call centers: warm transfer provides the receiving party with background information about the caller before connecting, while cold transfer connects directly without prior notice. The article recommends warm transfer for complex or sensitive issues and cold transfer for simple, high-frequency routing, and notes that ElevenAgents supports three transfer types, with Conference Transfer on its native Twilio integration able to pass warm transfer information to human agents.

    Drew Breunig writes a NES emulator into the Qwen3.5-4B weights

    Inspired by Divyansh Agrawal's qwenputer, Drew Breunig wrote a runnable NES 6502 CPU emulator into the weights of Qwen3.5-4B, and it can now (very slowly) run NES ROMs such as Super Mario Bros inside Qwen. In a Hacker News comment, he disclosed the prompts used when building the system with Opus 5.5, noting that Opus found and used the NES CPU consistency test suite that Christopher Pow published 15 years ago.

    Top scientists respond to the teacher-student relationship in the AI era: What should be done when students think AI is stronger than professors?

    At the Young Scientists Conference of the 2026 World Laureates Forum, top scientists including Michael Levitt, Laurent Lafforgue, and Makoto Fujita responded to questions such as whether AI is squeezing young people's room for development and the reversal of the teacher-student relationship. Levitt said he has been using AI for nearly four years and believes that using AI is essentially enhancing the user's own intelligence; Fujita judged that for at least the next decade, AI will remain merely a tool. Jürgen Caro believes that the only remaining value for professors is critical thinking, while Ma Jianpeng reminded students that using AI to expand papers is padding them with fluff.

    Top scientists debate in Shanghai: AI empowers scientific research, but beware of "the dangers of using AI"

    At the 2026 World Laureates Forum, scientists including Novoselov and Chen Yunji discussed AI empowering scientific research: AI can modify the atomic structure of two-dimensional materials and predict new functions, and robotic laboratories form a closed loop with large models; Chen Yunji's team produced the AI-designed "Qimeng 1" in 2021, and in 2025 "Qimeng 2" reached the performance level of mainstream mobile phone CPUs from more than a decade ago. Fields Medal winner Laurent Lafforgue warned that the danger of learning with AI is that knowledge remains superficial.

    Turing Award winner Hellman and other experts: AI governance cannot find answers only in code

    At the AI parallel forum of the 2026 World Laureates Forum, experts including Turing Award winner Martin Hellman, Wolf Prize in Mathematics winner Noga Alon, and Chinese Academy of Sciences academician Chen Yunji pointed out that AI safety cannot be solved by technology alone. Chen Yunji believes that mainstream large language models are based on statistical principles, and their accuracy can never reach 100%; this 1% uncertainty is enough to cause harm, and he advocates that every large model should come with a built-in ethical review mechanism. He Jifeng, meanwhile, emphasized that AI must be explainable, verifiable, and traceable, and aligned with human values.

    Can robots understand the world?

    Embodied intelligence means empowering AI onto physical entities, enabling models to rely on environmental perception for self-iterative learning, which is fundamentally different from traditional robots driven by preset programs. The humanoid form is not a bionic gimmick, but an engineering choice to adapt to existing human physical environments such as door handles, stairs, and tools. Wang Xingxing, founder of Unitree Robotics, believes that the "ChatGPT moment" of embodied intelligence—completing 80% of tasks through natural instructions in 80% of unfamiliar scenarios—could come in as soon as 2–3 years, or as long as 5–10 years.

    Musk responds to Cathie Wood saying SpaceX is severely undervalued

    DogeDesigner posted that Cathie Wood said SpaceX is severely undervalued, citing that SpaceX integrates AI, robotics and energy storage, while traditional space, cloud and AI analysts each work in silos, making it hard to see how these technologies reinforce one another; she also said companies have already assigned analyst teams to SpaceX, and expects this undervaluation to gradually clear up. Musk reposted the post and replied "True".

    Quoted postDogeDesigner · @cb_doge

    BREAKING: Cathie Wood says SpaceX is severely undervalued. SpaceX brings together AI, robotics and energy storage. But traditional space, cloud and AI analysts work separately, making it harder to understand how these technologies strengthen one another. Wood says firms are now assigning teams of analysts to SpaceX. As they collaborate and compare notes, she expects that undervaluation to clear up. https://t.co/octmFBgmcm
