(Sponsor) AI adoption is outpacing security knowledge - and some companies are already paying a price for it... publicly 🤦♂️ How can you keep moving fast with AI, without becoming the next cautionary tale? This Thursday, Oct 15, two AI advisory firm founders, Lauren Pearl & Glenn Hopper, will share the inside scoop on how to keep your AI pace - along with practical steps to mitigate security issues such as data breaches and deletions. P.S. - This session is one of a series by Ramp.

Muse Wonder Full is available only to Muse Code subscribers. The new models combine Active Memory, which carries important personal context across conversations and retrieves relevant details when a task calls for them, with Active Focus, a feature designed to keep the model working through difficult goals by trying alternative approaches, handling blockers, adapting to new information, requesting clarification when needed, and checking before important actions. Meta says Muse Wonder is its most aligned model yet. Microsoft Prepares to Put Gigawatts of Its Chips in Data Centers (3 minute read) Microsoft's newest iteration of its Maia chips will start rolling out next year. The Maia 300 is designed to handle inference. Microsoft expects to stock multiple gigawatts of the chips at its server farms. The Maia 300 delivers 40% more tokens per megawatt than leading GPU-based systems. Microsoft isn't currently planning to rent the underlying computing power of Maia chips directly to its cloud customers. 🚀 Science & Futuristic Technology Amazon has over 1 million robot workers. What's next for human employees? (23 minute read) Amazon already has more than a million robots working in its warehouses, and it is poised to significantly grow that robotic fleet in the coming years. Amazon is also the second largest corporate employer in the world. The company's executives say the growing robot fleet has eased the burden on its human workforce, but labor advocacy groups and independent researchers say the warehouse automation is not all upside for the humans working alongside robots. It can get complicated when humans are expected to keep pace with their robotic counterparts. Is ‘Attention' the Essence of Intelligence? (14 minute read) Research suggests that human thought is not purely linguistic. More brain regions light up than just the areas associated with language when we are thinking. Language may be how we communicate about the world, but our thoughts seem to draw on many other areas outside of the brain's language networks. AI's ability to translate effectively means that it can understand, in some sense. 💻 Programming, Design & Data Science Only 25% of teams achieve AI ROI. They get 1 thing right (Sponsor) That 1 thing is engineering discipline. This Datadog guide breaks the AI engineering loop down into a lifecycle any team can adopt, no matter what stack they run. Read it to see how to structure experiments across prompts, models, and retrieval to tie LLM behavior to your full stack, securely. Get the guide Why WebMCP matters (12 minute read) Co-browsing needs to work really well for users for the web to succeed in the agentic age. It is the only model where the developer and the user maintain control over the experience, and where the web remains the web. WebMCP enables sites to provide agents with direct JavaScript tools they can call to accomplish tasks, which makes direct interaction significantly faster, better, and cheaper. It circumvents the slowness and awkwardness of AI agents trying to figure out how to interact with sites.
