It’s a tool. If you know how to use it it’s very useful. If you don’t, it sucks.

Granted, it’s a tool that is designed to use you, too.

Called this a year ago.

A new Chinese military special-ops drone has shown unprecedented accuracy in live-fire tests, hitting a human-sized target with every shot while using a standard infantry assault rifle

 

People can't afford healthcare, food or housing but the world can spend trillions on AI to come up with more efficient ways of killing each other!

Kill enough people, your housing/healthcare/food costs dramatically decrease.

The money is in killing people not curing them.

As long as it is the other guy that gets killed.

You can tell the exaggerated falls and fumbles of the robot were faked, as in it purposefully fell over and tripped up, etc.

Who even knows what’s real anymore more.

The Entire History of Paris in 37 Minutes

 

YouTube:  https://youtu.be/3IZ...pZWgu2tsMzThSpQ

 

Thanks for watching guys! I hope you enjoyed it. I'm trying to level up in some way in every upload. As I always say, you might spot the odd visual error/glitch in the AI but sadly these can't be controlled all the time. Also apologies for the black screen at one part for a few seconds (just an isolated issue with the export). What a story though. Paris was absolutely fascinating! Definitely one of my favourites.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To me, this is quite watchable.

After a year-long pilot at its Woodstock, Ontario facility, Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada has signed a commercial Robots-as-a-Service agreement with Agility Robotics, deploying seven Digit humanoids on the assembly line this April.
 

In the competitive arena of automotive manufacturing, where marginal gains in efficiency and worker safety can determine whether a plant thrives or merely survives, announcements of new technology deployments arrive with some regularity. Most pass without ceremony.

 

The agreement struck between Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada (TMMC) and Agility Robotics, formalised on February 19 2026, carries rather more significance than the average procurement decision. It marks the first commercial deployment of humanoid robots in Canadian automotive production, and it arrives not as a speculative leap of faith, but as the conclusion of a year-long, rigorously structured evaluation process.

“Deploying seven Digit humanoids”

Had to read that a couple times to understand what they’re doing..

Tech company Block, the parent company of payment services Square and Cash App, said it would lay off some 40 per cent of its employees, citing gains in artificial intelligence as the reason. But some in the tech industry aren’t convinced.

In a letter posted to the social media platform X on Thursday, Block CEO Jack Dorsey said the decision wasn’t coming because the company is in any kind of trouble, but because AI tools are capable of doing more.

“We're already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company,” the CEO, who also founded Twitter, wrote.

It’s interesting because a payment company requires employed people paying for things.

Funny story.

Just putting the finishing touches today on Mrs. Sparky's 1966 Mustang that has been a 3 1/2 year rebuild. 

 

The dash lights would come on every time the brakes were applied. Spent days looking for the reason/problem. Finally I posed the question to Google and their AI came back with "check fitting of the rear light bulbs" as there may be some sort of back feed through the tail light circuit...sure enough...Google AI is my new friend.

Ya I was a bit of a back yard mechanic but mostly regards to electrical wiring in my day. It’s something.
