Open SWE: An open-source asynchronous coding agent

The use of AI in software engineering has evolved over the past two years. It started as autocomplete, then went to a copilot in an IDE, and in the fast few months has evolved to be a long running, more end-to-end agent that run asynchronously in the cloud. We believe that all agents will long more like this in the future - long running, asynchronous, more autonomous. Specifically, we think that they will: Run asynchronously in the cloud Integrate directly with your tooling Have enough conte

This Week’s ‘Foundation’ Took a Killer Spy-Fi Turn

Foundation is nearing the halfway point of season three. Episode five, “Where Tyrants Spend Eternity,” began to show us how Gaal Dornick (Lou Llobell) hopes to gain an advantage over the sinister Mule (Pilou Asbæk). Her plan tapped into a much-loved trope that Star Wars series Andor also made excellent use of: sci-fi spycraft. “Where Tyrants Spend Eternity” is also tense throughout and ends up involving a horrific, large-scale tragedy (another Andor similarity), building to a final scene that t

Sam Altman says he doesn’t think about Elon Musk that much

Sam Altman has dismissed longtime rival Elon Musk's warnings that OpenAI is set to dominate Microsoft, after the companies announced that OpenAI's latest AI model will be incorporated into Microsoft products. On Thursday, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella announced that OpenAI's GPT-5 service would be launching across platforms including Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot, GitHub Copilot, and Azure AI Foundry — prompting a response from Musk that "OpenAI is going to eat Microsoft alive." Nadella sought

Add the Tesla Diner to the List of Elon Musk Projects That Fail to Deliver on Promises

You are not going to believe this, because there is absolutely zero precedent for it happening; it appears Elon Musk has overpromised on something. It has only been two weeks since the Tesla Diner, a charging station and restaurant with a retro-futuristic aesthetic, and it is already significantly narrowing down its menu offerings, according to a report from Eater. In classic diner fashion, the restaurant offered a robust menu when it first opened, but it is down to just five sandwiches, two si

The Tesla Diner Is Already Falling Apart Under Mismanagement

Tesla, a company known for making electric vehicles that regularly malfunction and fall apart, is apparently faring no better at operating a working restaurant. Between its amply peeved neighbors, a woman being brained by a patio covering on its opening week, and protests against owner Elon Musk's other activities, the Tesla diner was already drawing all the wrong kind of attention — and then, it seemingly halved its menu out of nowhere. As Eater reports, Musk's foray into food service now has

Elon Musk Says AI Will Take All Our Jobs, Including His

It’s not the kind of reassurance people on edge about AI were hoping for. Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and the world’s richest man, warned that no job is safe, not even his. Musk just issued the warning on X (formerly Twitter), the social network he owns, in response to a post praising OpenAI’s ChatGPT. The original message described how a cancer survivor used ChatGPT to challenge doctors’ opinions, advocate for herself, and make better treatment decisions. “This is bound to ruffle the medical indu

Tesla Reportedly Shuts Down AI Project Weeks After Musk Called It “Spectacular”

Elon Musk has always thrived on bold claims and the contradictions that follow. On July 23, he joined Tesla’s second-quarter earnings call, the standard ritual in which executives talk up their company’s performance and future. Musk was in full visionary mode. That day, he painted a glowing picture of the future of Dojo, Tesla’s ultra-ambitious, custom-built supercomputer designed to train the neural networks for Full Self-Driving (FSD) and Tesla’s humanoid robot, Optimus. He called the next ge

Tesla Patents Bizarre Sucking Device

Late last month, Tesla's executives spun up the rumor mill amidst plummeting sales and financial hardship that the Elon Musk-led company was "gearing up for a super cool demo" of the company's long-awaited next-generation Roadster. Two weeks earlier, the billionaire CEO had teased a "most epic demo ever by end of year," without elaborating any further. While we can only speculate what they're planning to show off, one reasonable guess is that it could be related to Musk's years-long promise of

xAI’s legal chief steps down after whirlwind year

Tesla exec leading development of chip tech and Dojo supercomputer is leaving company

Tesla's vice president of hardware design engineering, Pete Bannon, is leaving the company after first joining in 2016 from Apple , CNBC has confirmed. Bannon was leading the development of Tesla's Dojo supercomputer and reported directly to Musk. Bloomberg first reported on Bannon's departure, and added that Musk ordered his team to shut down, with engineers in the group getting reassigned to other initiatives. Tesla didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. Since early last year,

Tesla shuts down Dojo, the AI training supercomputer that Musk said would be key to full self-driving

Elon Musk Appears to Now Be the Most Hated Person in America, According to New Research

At first, Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency appeared to be a joke, designed to keep the billionaire occupied as he pranced on stage next to then-presidential candidate Donald Trump. By late October, Musk warned that Americans would have to "endure hardship" if Trump were to win, resulting in some people being "upset." "I’ll probably need a lot of security, but it’s got to be done," he said at the time, referring to his plans to gut government agencies with the help of DOGE. Over

Dave Bautista Will Showdown With Henry Cavill In ‘Highlander’

Henry Cavill stars as Connor MacLeod, a man who discovers he’s an immortal being called a Highlander. He’s opposed by the Kurgan, another Highlander who has been killing them across the centuries.

X plans to show ads in Grok chatbot's answers

Framework Desktop (2025) Review: Powerful, but perhaps not for everyone

The most obvious question is “Why?” Framework builds modular , repairable laptops that anyone can take apart and put back together again. It’s a big deal in an era where laptops are regularly sold as a single unit that, should one part break, goes in the trash. Since every part of a Framework machine can be swapped out, you can keep one going for as long as your patience, and the supply of spare parts, allows. Desktops, however, are already modular and repairable — company founder Nirav Patel s

Review: Framework Desktop is a mash-up of a regular desktop PC and the Mac Studio

Framework’s main claim to fame is its commitment to modular, upgradeable, repairable laptops. The jury’s still out on early 2024’s Framework Laptop 16 and mid-2025’s Framework Laptop 12, neither of which has seen a hardware refresh, but so far, the company has released half a dozen iterations of its flagship Framework Laptop 13 in less than five years. If you bought one of the originals right when it first launched, you could go to Framework’s site, buy an all-new motherboard and RAM, and get a

Framework Desktop Review: A Delightful Surprise

The Framework laptops did something no other laptop could. With the ability to upgrade or swap out nearly every internal component, they are sustainable, unlike any other. But the Framework Desktop isn’t so unique. After all, one of the primary reasons people buy (or build) desktop PCs is the ability to upgrade the system on their own. This 4.5-liter mini-ITX PC isn’t so different from many of the compact PCs you can already buy. And yet, Framework’s distinctive approach makes this stand out.
