According to The Information, Meta is considering using its competitors' models to improve its own apps' AI features. The report said that leaders at the Meta Superintelligence Lab have looked at integrating Google Gemini into its Meta AI chatbot to help it provide a conversational, text-based solution to its users' search questions.

Condor's Cuzco RISC-V Core at Hot Chips 2025

news.ycombinator.com Chester Lam 2025-10-23 23:18:41

Condor Computing, a subsidiary of Andes Technology that creates licensable RISC-V cores, has a business model with parallels to Arm (the company) and SiFive. Andes formed Condor in 2023, so Condor is a relatively young player on the RISC-V scene. However, Andes does have RISC-V design experience prior to Condor’s formation with a few RISC-V cores under their belt from years past. Condor is presenting their Cuzco core at Hot Chips 2025.

No Amount of Money Can Make People Want to Work for Zuck

How much would you have to get paid to spend any amount of time with Mark Zuckerberg? For some of the folks who have joined Meta’s AI team, millions of dollars simply is not enough. According to a new report from the Financial Times, the Meta AI lab is such a mess (and presumably, Zuck is such a bad hang) that recent hires have threatened to quit within days of joining, and promotions have been handed out just to keep people from leaving. FT points to Shengjia Zhao, Meta’s “chief AI scientist,”

Tesla denied having fatal crash data until a hacker found it

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-25 00:48:51

At the beginning of the month, Tesla was found partly liable in a wrongful death lawsuit involving the death of a pedestrian in Florida in 2019. The automaker—which could have settled the case for far less—claimed that it did not have the fatal crash's data. That's until a hacker was able to recover it from the crashed car, according to a report in The Washington Post.

Our Best Look Yet at a Solar Flare Reveals the Sun’s Wilder Side

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-10-25 04:55:54

It took astronomers a little over a year to analyze the sharpest-ever images of a solar flare. But they’re finally done, and the results are illuminating—literally and figuratively. Last year, NSF’s Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope captured a high-resolution image of a solar flare crossed with dark strands of coronal loops. Further analysis revealed that the solar flare was an X-class flare—the most powerful class—in a decay phase. The coronal loop strands averaged around 30 miles (48 kilometer

Intel's "Clearwater Forest" Xeon 7 E-Core CPU Will Be a Beast

news.ycombinator.com Timothy Prickett Morgan 2025-10-23 12:11:25

With AMD having attaining more than 40 percent revenue share and more than 27 percent shipment share in the X86 server CPU market in the first half of 2025, that means two things. First, AMD is selling some big, fat X86 CPUs compared to Intel. It also means that Intel, despite all of its many woes, is getting nearly 60 percent of revenues and north of 72 percent of shipments for X86 server CPU here in 2025.

The core of Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, has long been a source of mystery for astronomers: an object so unfathomably dense and hot that it defies comprehension.
