🐾 IN TODAY'S WILD
AI is rapidly advancing, with UC Riverside creating a new system to identify fake videos beyond simple swaps, combating disinformation. Singapore's Sapient Intelligence developed a new AI architecture offering 100x faster reasoning than LLMs with far less training data.
These innovations signal the age of sophisticated AI agents is here, posing an "existential threat" to Apple if it ignores generative AI.
Browse is changing with Microsoft's Copilot Mode in Edge, making the browser more intelligent. These innovations confirm the rise of AI agents beyond chatbots, posing an "existential threat" to Apple if it doesn't embrace generative AI.
For developers, GitHub Spark is now in public preview for Copilot Pro+, and Google pre-installs Gradio in Colab for instant app building.
Finally, Gartner's collaboration with midsize enterprises highlights AI's growing strategic importance in business.

AI system identifies fake videos beyond face swaps and altered speech
In an era where manipulated videos can spread disinformation, bully people, and incite harm, UC Riverside researchers have created a powerful new system to expose these fakes. [LINK]New AI architecture delivers 100x faster reasoning than LLMs with just 1,000 training examples
Singapore-based AI startup Sapient Intelligence has developed a new AI architecture that can match, and in some cases vastly outperform, large language models (LLMs) on complex reasoning tasks, all while being significantly smaller and more data-efficient. [LINK]
Introducing Copilot Mode in Edge: A new way to browse the web
For decades, the way we’ve used browsers has remained linear: open a tab (or 20), search for something, read a page, repeat. It’s a model that’s worked well, but it hasn’t fundamentally changed. Until now. As AI begins to reshape nearly every facet of digital life, we’re witnessing a turning point in how we interact with the web. Now, it’s worth asking: is your browser working for you as much as it should? [LINK]
