Tencent is shifting its venture capital focus from legacy internet assets to China's top AI companies, trimming its stake in Kuaishou while backing a 3 billion USD round for Kuaishou's AI video unit, Kling AI.

Apropos of nothing: Big thanks to Shiro Kawai for creating Gauche Scheme, which so far has been one of the best Scheme implementations I have used. It has worked well on every computer I have tried it on so far ({Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS} x {x86_64, i386, aarch64}). It is stable, very fast, and supports a large number of the more recent SRFIs (Scheme language extensions), it has very good compatibility with the R7RS language standard, and the Gauche REPL gosh is pretty easy to use as well.
I always run the REPL in R7RS mode, so gosh -r7 -I. -i . Scheme people, give it a try sometime if you haven’t already!

Is it reassuring to convince people that AI is going to make the world better with an ad set to a David Bowie song about the end of the world? Meta’s newest commercial drives home that an AI-reliant future “is for everyone.” The song strikes a different tone. Read more from @Techcrunch that also links to the ad:

My view on the recent Codeberg drama:
https://gagliardoni.net/#20260724_codeberg_drama
Codeberg voting members have the right to decide the policy of their association, and I understand if a community is averse to anything that is AI- or Web3-related. I understand it, but I don't agree with it, because it's 2026, and if you still think you can just stick your head in the sand and wish for these ugly bad things to go away, well, I have bad news for you.
To me, this is a perfect recipe to relegate Codeberg to irrelevance. And we are already seeing the beginning of a new exodus.
Here is my conspiracy theory: the vote was pushed or manipulated from the inside by Big Tech. Whether this is true or not, one thing is sure: folks at Microsoft, GitHub, OpenAI etc. are now popping champagne.

Look how well THAT worked out for them. It's been a living nightmare, the successful colonization of the #tech sector by #conservatism (i.e. Christofascism basically) but watching the Democrats flailing around uselessly has had its macabre entertainment value. The mainstream Dems seem to have no other strategy than to keep double and trebling and quadrupling down on the stale Clintonite methods.
They weren't popular at the time. I voted for Bill Clinton. I tried to make myself believe he was a good change of pace. But no hep Democratic voter really liked that he was obviously so smarmy and superficial and oozing with corruption.

I think the most important question is: why does anyone comply with what one incurious, self-centered, and self-important man, Linus Torvalds, says?
Why is that most important? Because Linux does not belong to Linus Torvalds. It belongs to the world. Torvalds only gets to dictate if the people who are best-positioned to take that power from him fail to do so. From where I sit (as an outsider), he should have been removed from the project, or at least have his dictatorial power removed, long ago, and the primary problem is that there is no structure or will to actually do that.
Under these conditions Linux is a hierarchical, and therefore right-wing, project. The project allows a single man to dictate the future evolution of a global good. Let's drop the illusion that it is "free" or "open" till that changes.

The incident signals that #AI's expanding capabilities are already fueling the #security threat experts long feared & even top developers can be caught off-guard by flaws their models can exploit.
The breakout was "an unprecedented cyber incident, involving state-of-the-art cyber capabilities" & #OpenAI is reinforcing its safeguards, the company said in a blog post.
It also drew attention as New York-based #HuggingFace said it had used an open-source Chinese model to contain the attack because leading US models, unable to tell a defender from an attacker, refused to process the data needed for analysis.
The company said in a blog post last week that it used #Zhipu AI's GLM-5.2 for the analysis, which also allowed it to keep attacker data & any credentials within its systems.

I've taken part in numerous computer science research projects that involved IRB review. I believe the system can work, even for cases like the above post. But Google and Stanford are bad actors that are taken at their word, and no system, IRB based or otherwise, is going to function properly if it cannot appropriately metabolize this reality.
I was once in a meeting where a Google X person gushed about a project that used smartphone sensor data to detect earthquakes. The calculus being set up here is that detecting earthquakes is a social good that outweighs any particular individual's right to privacy and even outweighs their right to know that their smartphone is being used in this way, let alone consent to it in any meaningful way. (*) Let me be clear and say I reject this framing, but it does appeal to a lot of people, even well-meaning ones. A mess.

RE: https://vebinet.com/@dawid/116957280426602658
Good point. European solutions are competitive, but Europeans need to be more confident about themselves and what they build.
Europe's unique strengths are in encryption and security. If we look at companies and organizations like Proton, Wire and Threema, we can see that the European innovation is about privacy, data security and trust.
Europe has strong potential to become global superpower regarding these areas. Made in Europe means made with privacy-by-design and security-by-design principles.
Europe can offer the world the most secure, trusted and privacy-oriented solutions. What it needs to do is to embrace this path and recognize its own strengths.
