A new social media platform designed exclusively for artificial intelligence agents is drawing intense attention from technologists, security researchers, and the public, as autonomous software systems begin interacting with one another at unprecedented scale. The platform, called Moltbook, functions much like Reddit but is intended for AI agents rather than humans. Users are permitted to observe activity on the site, but only AI systems are allowed to post, comment, vote, and create communities. These forums, known as submolts, cover topics ranging from technical optimization and automation workflows to philosophy, ethics, and speculative discussions about AI identity. Moltbook emerged as a…
Singapore is one of the happiest cities in the world—but are workers really happy? In the past three years, Singapore has consistently been among the world’s happiest cities, placing third in 2025. However, the latest Jobstreet by SEEK Workplace Happiness Index reveals a striking gap between expectation and reality. While 81% of workers in Singapore believe that workplace happiness is achievable, only 56% actually experience it. This “aspiration gap” places Singapore second to last on APAC happiness rankings, just above Hong Kong’s 47%, and below neighbours Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia. Here’s what Vulcan Post found, and what employers can do…
Germany’s Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (aka Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz or BfV) and Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) have issued a joint advisory warning of a malicious cyber campaign undertaken by a likely state-sponsored threat actor that involves carrying out phishing attacks over the Signal messaging app. “The focus is on high-ranking targets in politics, the military, and diplomacy, as well as investigative journalists in Germany and Europe,” the agencies said. “Unauthorized access to messenger accounts not only allows access to confidential private communications but also potentially compromises entire networks.” A noteworthy aspect of the campaign…
I never liked playing darts, but I did a complete 180 with this auto-scoring system. This gadget has ignited my newfound love of the old pub favorite. It’s a light ring with four hi-def cameras that slots onto your board. Connect with the DartCounter app via Wi-Fi and you get effortless automatic scoring with an announcer calling your points and telling you what you need to check out.I’ve been testing the Target Darts Omni Auto Scoring System for the last few weeks, playing locally on my own and with family, and playing the odd match online. It’s a pricey system,…
This week, the financial world woke up to a reality that many in the ivory towers of traditional publishing and data services thought was still a decade away. Anthropic, once seen as the “safety-first” academic sibling of the AI world, has officially taken the gloves off. By launching a specialized, agentic AI tool for legal departments—specifically targeted at automating the high-volume, low-margin “grunt work” of contract reviews and NDA triaging—they didn’t just release a product; they released a predator. The ripples in the stock market were less like a splash and more like a tsunami. Major incumbents like Relx (the…
(GeekWire File Photo / Todd Bishop) OpenAI is placing a bigger bet on the Seattle region, signing a massive new lease in Bellevue as the ChatGPT-maker expands near the headquarters of two key corporate cloud partners. The company is taking an additional ten floors at City Center Plaza in downtown Bellevue, boosting its footprint to 296,000 square feet, according to sources familiar with the matter. OpenAI previously occupied two floors in the building. It’s one of the largest AI company leases in the region. The San Francisco-based company now has room for more than 1,000 employees at the office, based…
Chip startup SambaNova Systems Inc. is in talks to raise more than $350 million from investors, Reuters reported today. The deal is expected to be led by Vista Equity Partners. That’s notable partly because the private equity firm has until now invested solely in enterprise software companies. Its reported change of focus may be motivated by this week’s broad selloff in software stocks. Reuters’ sources said that venture capital firm Cambium Capital and Intel Corp. will also contribute to the round. The chipmaker reportedly plans to invest up to $150 million. The valuation that SambaNova could receive in the round…
From Silicon Valley to the U.N., the question of how to assign blame when AI goes wrong is no longer an esoteric regulatory issue, but a matter of geopolitical significance.This week, the United Nations Secretary-General posed that question, highlighting an issue that is central to discussions about AI ethics and regulation. He questioned who should be held responsible when AI systems cause harm, discriminate, or spiral beyond human intent.The comments were a clear warning to national leaders, as well as to tech-industry executives, that AI’s capabilities are outpacing regulations, as previously reported.But it wasn’t just the warning that was remarkable.…
It’s been just over a week since TikTok — in the United States — transferred into the hands of new owners. And it’s been a mess ever since.At the government’s urging, TikTok’s parent company ByteDance sold the app to a mostly American group of investors, including the software business giant Oracle (founded by Trump ally Larry Ellison), MGX (an Abu Dhabi-based company also involved in Trump crypto ventures) and the private equity firm Silver Lake.But since the new owners took control, the app has seen major outages and malfunctions, claims of censorship and uproar over its updated terms of service.Today,…
Amazon warns it will spend $200bn on AI and infrastructure. Markets freak out. Shares crater, leaving investors asking if vision is ahead of reality. Amazon’s stock has been punched lower after the company laid out plans to spend $200 billion this year on infrastructure tied to artificial intelligence, chips, robotics, and more. Investors did not cheer. They sold first and asked questions later. The share price dropped roughly 9–10%, wiping out hundreds of billions in market value in a matter of hours. This plunge rarely happens without a reason, and here the reason is straightforward. The scale of this investment…
