DevDay 2026 Recap (5 minute read)
OpenAI made more than 20 major announcements across ChatGPT, Codex, its models, and more at DevDay 2026. It introduced agents that can take on ongoing responsibilities and new ways for people and AI to work together. The company also expanded its commitment to an open ecosystem by opening up ChatGPT as a shared surface where humans and agents can collaborate and where developers can directly launch new native experiences. There is now a new Pro 500 plan that offers 25 times the ChatGPT Plus allowance and includes access to Ultrafast.

Apple's New CEO Seeks to Make Company Run Faster and Leaner (7 minute read)
Apple CEO John Ternus is moving to overhaul the company to accelerate product development, broaden its range of devices, and create a leaner organization with a greater focus on engineering. Early ideas under consideration include relying less on traditional spring and fall product release schedules and eliminating some middle-management positions. Ternus has indicated that the company should introduce products more quickly and become more experimental to remain competitive in the AI era. He is seeking new sources of revenue and ways to generate more money from existing products.

NASA has a Dragon dilemma, and there appear to be no good answers (7 minute read)
SpaceX has made it clear to NASA that it no longer wishes to fly its Crew Dragon spacecraft, or the Falcon 9 rocket, on missions to low-Earth orbit. The company has agreed to support the International Space Station until 2030, but it intends to retire the spacecraft after that. SpaceX has told companies developing private space stations for low-Earth orbit that they cannot order Crew Dragon missions for their habitats. The company has more than fulfilled its contract obligations to NASA, so it is unlikely that the agency can compel SpaceX to keep flying Dragon.

Pilotless plane flies over Wichita, putting the future of aviation on display (2 minute read)
Joby Aviation recently flew its autonomous aircraft over Wichita. The company has developed a base system that can function in any aircraft. The plane used in the demonstration was a Cessna 208 Caravan that had been retrofitted with Joby's technology. Joby plans to start using the autonomous plane in emergency and cargo transport operations over the next few years, but its end goal is to make it a safe, viable transportation option.

Data is the application (6 minute read)
AI makes it possible to build faster than ever. However, none of that speed applies to the data. Lose the data that users give you, and you have to start all over again. Let agents iterate over the code, but leave the data to humans.

Lemma (GitHub Repo)
Lemma is an open-source workspace where humans and AI agents work as one team. State is shared and permissioned, so many people and many agents work on the same records. It keeps running between sessions, on schedules, webhooks, and table events, and it improves as teams work with it. Lemma can be run locally or on Lemma Cloud.

When AI Models Hurt People, the Labs Should Pay (18 minute read)
Tech's red line has always been liability. As a technology matures, society sets more legal regimes, either through explicit regulation or case law. Previous technology waves have shown that industries can survive paying for the harms they cause. One would have to question the societal benefits of an industry if paying for the people it harms or kills is enough to kill the industry.

The Case for Meta Enterprise Platform (11 minute read)
Meta has committed tens of gigawatts against a demand forecast for a set of first-party products whose adoption curve likely has a high margin of error. Muse appears to have found at least initial product-market fit as a consumer agent, but it is still a first-party product, and being wrong can be expensive. While the best use of Meta's compute will be its first-party products, an enterprise platform as a 'second' customer makes sense. If Meta underbuilds and can't serve the product it just found product-market fit for, users will drift to competing AI agents/products.
